Dennis 8,391 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Personally, I feel like celebrities are not doing enough to keep Ukraine in our recent memory. We are unfortunately a society that operates based on trends and news cycles. And Putin has been betting on that. Atrocities and death in Ukraine have been rising, yet people's attention has been declining. Chromatica Ball could provide Gaga with an opportunity to get back to the activism that we all love her for. I would like to see Hold My Hand performance to be dedicated to the Ukrainian pilots who are risking their lives on daily missions to provide coverage, support and aid. Ukraine said that 90% of pilots who flew to the siege of Mariupol to provide aid to the defenders did not return. And until this day, they continue risking their lives on a daily basis We watch those dangerous manoeuvres in Top Gun: Maverick but we tend to forget that there are real people who are actually doing that in real life as we speak. I think the theme of the song could provide a great opportunity for a tribute. I hope Gaga doesn't miss this opportunity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pennywise 35,841 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 People would say it is out of touch, and they would be right, especially since it is tied to a movie such as Top Gun that is more like Top Tier American Propaganda. So long ggd, it was nice while it lasted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pennywise 35,841 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 I'd rather her do fundraisers or simply take money from her rich friends like she did for COVID-19. So long ggd, it was nice while it lasted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So associating herself with such "propaganda" movie is not "out of touch", but somehow dedicating the message to real people who are risking their lives everyday is? Gosh I hate this type of wokism. What is out of touch however, is for us to completely move on, forget about what's happening. We should never lose sight of what's at stake. And even small gestures of rememberance, drawing people's attention to the ongoing sruggle will help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimotheeChalamet 5,122 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 She dedicated Angel Down to "anyone who had lost people to senseless violence" so I can see it, maybe not Hold My Hand but she's definitely going to send a positive message (like she ALWAYS does on her tours) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alfonso 1,431 Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 I'm pretty sure that she'll address the world's situation at some point (perhaps not specifically dedicate the song like you said but the problem itself) I do think that while famous people have a platform they can use to remind people about certain events, they can't end them, so it's all up to our society Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAIPEI 2,318 Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 celebrities could sing the song for cheering and comforts people, but serve no useful purpose and help to ukraine's actual situation and problems, to be honest. if she devotes something like born this way foundation or one world: together at home it would be really helpful, but dont force or push her, everything is up to her! she's kindness and devoted as much as she did.
