Many users here are using the "Emma on wheelchair" emoticon, which I think is very offensive for people with disabilities! Dear Gagadaily admins and users, you define/describe someone by the way he/she can/can't walk? Is it supposed to be even funny or cool?  Lady Gaga is an artist whose art & activism spreads the message for acceptance, diversity and online kindness please remove this offensive option from the emoticon section! Let's avoid politically inorrect jokes in this fanbase and be different by spreading love, artlove and kindness! :koons:<3

I believe Emma chose the emoticon herself :emma:

It's not supposed to be mocking in any way.

Yeah Emma was the one who implemented it in the first place.

Y'all newbies need to chill.

Are you implying that people with disabilities can't defend themselves and need you to do it for them?

So problematic. Smh. Bye girl.
