Rabid Lady Gaga fans are LIVID with Madonna and Mariah Carey, who they feel are appropriating gay culture for their own nefarious purposes. To combat those “old hags,” Little Monsters have started a petition on Change.Org which states:
Madonna and Mariah Carey, who are straight, have been exploiting the gay community for years (especially Madonna). Neither have done anything concrete for our community like Lady Gaga has. Mariah Carey recently received a GLAAD award for no reason whatsoever, while Lady Gaga has set up her Born This Way Foundation, which aims to help millions of LGBT youth. Madonna and Mariah Carey must donate a portion of their money earned (at least 10 percent) to the Born This Way Foundation.
Ah, youth. So sure of itself. So quick to judgment on things they know nothing of. Madonna has done NOTHING for the gay community? Really? Madonna, one of the earliest and most outspoken LGBT allies, who was there for the gay community during its darkest hours, who personally lost dozens if not hundreds of friends, and who galvanized the music industry to rally around GMHC and GLAAD and other organizations.
But if Little Monsters think she’s done nothing, well, that MUST be the gays.
A few of the comments on the petition are particularly galling. Read them below (Gaga really ought to step up and school her super fans. Just sayin’)
