Russia finds Lady Gaga guilty of 'harming' children with pro-gay speech
Organizers are appealing the decision that they were wrong to allow children as young as 12 to attend the 'gay' concerts
Russia has fined the organizers of a Lady Gaga concert because she ‘harmed’ children with a pro-gay speech.
A magistrate’s court in St Petersburg yesterday (14 November) fined Planet Plus 20,000 rubles ($614, €455).
During the gigs in St Petersburg and Moscow on 9 and 12 December 2012, the US singer dared Russia to arrest her and made a speech about the bravery of LGBTs in the face of anti-gay laws.
Earlier this year, co-author of the federal gay propaganda bill Vitaly Milonov attempted to open a criminal case against Gaga.
