I'm not offended by the controversial artistic things she does.

She did offend me though when she was a bitch to this 1 asian reporter who didn't speak english well. She went off on her. and that 1 time a fan jumped on stage during bad romance and she let her backup dancers carry the poor asian girl off stage as she backed away and screamed 'I DONT WANNA BE FRIENNNDS!!!!' .

That really wasn't a "poor Asian girl", it was someone who did something they knew they weren't allowed to do. Did you expect her to stop her show?

Also she has used transphobic language in the past and she should have known better than to use "chola" in Born This Way. That is considered a racial slur in some parts of South America when said by white people and gives a negative image of Latin Americans (which I am btw).

I don't like how she acts like she's the saviour of minorities in that song....I know it's meant to be campy and cheesy but the message is still the same, and when it comes to transgender people....how the **** is saying "you were born this way" uplifting or positive? That's the whole point, they were born in the wrong body.

I cannot at you REACHING that far to try and pull a negative message from BTW.

For one, "chola" was used because it's a stereotype. The song is about loving yourself and not letting other people (or stereotypes) define you. You're born transgender and that is the point.

I love how singing about equality and loving yourself = acting like the savior of minorities. I guess anyone who tries to do something good is acting like a savior.
Keep trying.

Of course transgenders weren't born transgenders, but she means they were born a man inside a woman's body, and viceversa. She's telling them it's OK to be like that - which you, and I, and many people may not need, but the song has inspired and helped a lot of people.

If you don't like it it's OK, but deny the good influence it had in thousands of persons it's being biased.

I wasn't a big fan of the Alejendro video or the Judas concept. I like mostly everything Gaga does but playing with religion will always seem unnessisary for me.

The whole gays getting offended by Born this Way is stupid though. Gays who invent reasons to be bothered by her message offends me more than Gaga ever could.

No

A couple scenes in the Alejandro video actually offended me, as a Catholic. And those prayer candles. Pretty sure there were other stuff too. Pretty much everything related to Alejandro other than the actual song.

You're trying way too hard. Stop while you're ahead, please.

Do you mean lesbians?



You MADONNA fans really shouldn't be talking about pandering. It's hilarious and you guys are doing too much.

Attack the argument, not the person, otherwise you might as well agree with what I'm saying.

If you're a gay man and you're offended by Gaga's gay rights activism, you are a lost and confused individual

[Onen]

Madonna has nothing to do with this, so you bringing her up....

[Dr.Cake]

Yes.

[Konichiwa]

Being a very insecure homosexual Christian, I am commonly offended by Lady Ga Ga and her gimmicks, such as tricking all homosexuals into buying her albums and summoning the devil in her inappropriate and promiscuous performances.

The woman in his/her avi is probably 90% of the reason he/she doesn't like Gaga. Trying too hard to come up with legitimate reasons, though. It's cute

[sweetkiss]

no, but her image is so satanic I would be scared to have her cds at my house lol

Thank you for reminding me opinions that don't go along with the majority aren't welcome at ATRL.

[Siya]

I don't pay enough attention to her to notice, so no.

[aleik2]

when she released that ratchet Alejandro video & when I herd High Way Unicorn on the album

[Nicole]

The MTN video offended me.
