And even race aside, this situation is sad considering the longterm outcome of one stupid mistake... so yeah, I think we should have empathy and act in kindness, especially as a Gaga fan.

I looked up her name on Twitter and the first thing that appeared were racial slurs and people calling her a "****er", so i can understand your point.

A common gel that people use is called gorilla snot, which I’m guessing she might have mistaken the gorilla glue for. Whether or not you think that’s an easy mistake, people have idiot moments all the time, but she’s probably going to have long term scarring and baldness. I feel so bad for her. And something doesn’t sit right with me about people tearing her down instead of uplifting her given the long history of trauma Black women have experienced related to their hair. If it weren’t for that pressure on Black women, she wouldn’t have felt it necessary to put some random **** in her hair when her spray ran out. She clearly mentioned that she purposely used glue thinking she will be able to wash it out. It was not a mistake. She used it because she wanted to use glue on her head.

Regina George 59,387 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Suing the company because their product is basically amazing at what it is supposed to do is beyond crazy tho. Sorry but you put glue in your hair knowing damn well it is not supposed to go on your head. It’s not company’s fault people do lunatic things like this. Imagine me drinking bleach and then suing the company that made it because I almost died. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
March34th 1,973 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 not this whole thread just turning into a bullying contest. people make mistakes sometimes, that doesn't mean they deserve to suffer. she probably thought it would work in a pinch since she ran out. like it's spray adhesive so in a sense it could have worked and then been washed out but gorilla glue is crazy for it's strength and she might have not known that. not everyone is walking around here with knowledge on how efficient every glue brand is like jfc give this woman a break Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
