There is a difference with being racist and celebrating other races apart from your own!  I thought that would be the opposite to racism, but hey...

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.

Thank you for your input!

 No, but the Born This Way lyrics are problematic and undermine the message of the song, and there are a couple of times she’s veered into cultural appropriation territory (but never as severely as, say, Gwen Stefani). She’s definitely not a racist however.

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:

If you don't think she is then why would you post this? With that title? I honestly do not understand this fandom. You're determined to cause her misery. I reported this thread and I suggest others do the same. Smdh

Entire video was a MASSIVE reach. Firstly, I really don't like the idea of outright calling someone 'racist'. There are people who are obviously racist, because they have actively tried to offend a race. And yes, it's highly valid to question whether some of Gaga's choices were racially insensitive or problematic, but to call a person racist for a few minor racially insensitive fashion choices is just highly unnecessary. 

Secondly, I'm all for cultural appropriation, if it isn't intended to offend. Honestly, I feel like literally every celebrity, probably every PERSON has done something culturally insensitive without even realising. Should Gaga's wearing of the burqa be questioned - yes. But I don't believe Gaga ever intended to offend or upset any race, so to question whether she is racist as a person is crazy.

Do you think Gaga would appreciate this? And not take it seriously? This us what you decide to post out of boredom? Hmm, wonder what you were after...
