Amid the mayhem, Lady Gaga calls it 'violence' to silence queer people and their art
Briefly

At The Grammy Awards, Lady Gaga passionately advocated for the rights of trans and queer individuals while celebrating her recent Grammy win with Bruno Mars. She emphasized the need for visibility and love within the LGBTQ+ community. Gaga's new album, Mayhem, showcases a blend of her extensive musical journey and pays homage to queer culture through visual art and performance. As a prominent figure in the music industry, she highlighted the responsibility to uplift marginalized communities, especially amidst rising threats against LGBTQ+ rights under the current political climate.
"Trans people are not invisible. Trans people deserve love. The queer community deserves to be lifted up. Music is love," she declared while she and Bruno Mars accepted the Grammy for Best Pop Duo/Group.
"I know for myself in the music industry, as well as someone that moves through iconography, the LGBTQ+ community has led the way in entertainment and in art...to ignore or push down this community is wrong. And to me, it's a violence."
