Americano 31,061 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Update on the drama in Russia Russia: Lady Gaga Threatened With Arrest, Fine For Speaking Out On Gay Rights Lady Gaga said that her managers received a call threatening her with arrest or a $50,000 fine if she spoke out in support of the LGBT community on the St. Petersburg leg of her Born This Way Ball. Vitaly Milonov, an ally of President Vladimir Putin and author of the city’s odious law banning so-called “gay propaganda,†accused the singer of breaking that law. “We saw that in addition to music, songs and such, there were direct calls for 12-year-old citizens to support the LGBT community,†Milonov said, adding that “when people tell kids ‘you must support s-xual minorities’, that can create a false equivalence for them between traditional and non-traditional relationships.†http://www.queerty.com/russia-lady-gaga-arrest-50k-fine-gay-rights-20121212/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare 0 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Disgusting. I respect everyone's right to believe, think, or say what they want to-- but it's wrong when it becomes their prerogative to force those beliefs on others with laws. What is this, 1984?

Doogi 1,506 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 ****, this is crazy. Gaga I know you're going to be strong and talk about that stuff anyway, but get out of there ASAP.

Envi 765 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Everyone, that is except Madonna, who already laughed in the face of a $10 million lawsuit from anti-gay activists for violating the St. Petersburg ban. So Madge will no doubt blast Gaga for trying to rip her off yet again. And with such an elaborate ploy, too. Getting the Prime Minister of Russia involved? Well-played, Lady. Well. Played. this is from the same article. hmmm lol ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAMROD 107,538 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 With Gaga having a song, sorry i mean a big hit and an anthem of a generation, called Born This Way, they find it super easy to put her into this booby trap tbh. Still sleazy as they were, nothing has changed. (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ✧*:･ﾟ 𝔦 𝔞𝔪 𝔰𝔱𝔯𝔬𝔫𝔤 𝔡𝔢𝔰𝔭𝔦𝔱𝔢 𝔪𝔶 𝔰𝔠𝔞𝔯𝔰 (*´艸｀*) ♡♡♡ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
