There are many different kinds of racism.  And while they're all bad, they're not all equally bad.  

My personal definition of racism in the general sense requires hateful or negative intent.  By that definition Gaga is not racist.  But expand the definition to include ignorance and indifference and it becomes a grey area.

the dreds were def appropriation

the V magazine shoot was meant to be housewife tan, and it’s more orange than anything

the picture of her with people in blackface was her in a german fetish club, it wasn’t blackface it was something sc*t related i think

that’s all rly, other things are a stretch i think (that i know of)

I think she has proved more than ANY other celebrity that she is genuinely committed to making up for the insensitivities of her past.

To be racist you need to be discriminatory at least towards a group of people, Gaga is a humanitarian, so...

Also, I don't see why Americans stress so much about cultural appropriation. It's not offensive, and it shouldn't be. Actually isn't that the beauty of sharing nice atributes between different cultures? Also then white Americans are appropriating several European cultures. :oops:

I’ve not watched the whole way through, but I’d like to make a point - as an Asian woman, I can safely say that from everything I’ve seen, what Gaga usually wears isn’t appropriation. If anything, it’s cultural appreciation. It’s a very temperamental topic, as there’s a fine line between each thing. But the things she sometimes wears, I don’t see as appropriation. She’s educated. She usually does it to commend or relate to those specific audiences more. It’s respectful. She’s not doing it just for the look. 
The other things she wore - such as the locs, purely as a fashion statement with no actual purpose other than aesthetic? I’d say that’s appropriation, yeah. I feel she’d never wear anything like that anymore, proving her growth as a person.
