Nathan 2,079 Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 1 minute ago, Sneaky Oliver said: But maybe she was not overseeing it, maybe there were some actions taken behind the scenes. As many have stated, probably Richy has his position assured by contract and Gaga cannot legally fire him. It’s not fair to Gaga to make her look like she has been conniving to whatever Richy did You can fire anyone, at anytime. Bullying and sexual assault is ground for immediate dismissal. Unfortunately for us, these people are always high up and protected in their position by those in power. Maybe Gaga didn’t know about the sexual assault, but I can grantee she is fully aware of the bullying as her core crew is gone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin 24,441 Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 I’d rather not comment on the situation itself but I just want to say two things: 1) Keep in mind that Richy most definitely has a contract and even if he was to be fired today, it would take months if not years for him to actually stop working with Gaga. 2) Please also keep in mind that the allegations of sexual assault by Michael were made in a private conversation that was posted without his consent.

This will however damage her brand unless someone clears up what happened now. They are “her” dancers after all. I’m sure Gaga would never tolerate any kind of abuse towards women especially in her team and I’m sure she must be dealing with it professionally. I don’t think this is the kind of situation she would personally share with the fans. I’m glad Montana made sure to speak how Gaga was not an issue at all.

Agree to all of the above. I’m aware you can’t confirm if Gaga/her team are aware of what’s going on with speculation right now but I would suggest they’re made aware from a PR perspective.

MOT 2,986 Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 9 minutes ago, Rebel said: Michael Silas confessed he was a victim of sexual abuse by Richy. It's a sad situation all around because those DMs were never supposed to get leaked but he didn't deny their veracity, he confirmed it by saying it was his experience. An allegation of an offence having been committed is not proof of an offence having been committed. This thread could end up being deleted, like the other one.

This isn’t true. Anyone can be suspended from their job at any time. Aligations of assault (of any kind) are grounds for termination, even if temporary. His contract can be terminated and they are not forced to work together, its just not how it works. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think this is correct, but I also know very little about how these legal things work so I’m not going to debate. Someone with more insight can probably help.

I can just see The Sun picking this up as some of the top tweets that have trended in Entertainment are related to this. They’ll need to be ready because no doubt they’ll lay blame on Gaga.

Staying quiet only gives us more room to theorize on their stance on all this. A statement about what? you're talking as she's aware of this. She can't fire her choreographer 6 days before a WORLD TOUR because a dancer on instagram via dms said something. Stop it already. STOP.IT. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suuus 5,632 Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 37 minutes ago, Bolkins said: Realistically at this point, except having their truth heard, what do the dancers stand to gain by exposing this? Literally nothing, other than causing some drama for their loyal employer who’s kept them booked and busy for like a decade. Ego can do some wild things to people and being in the position Ritchy has been in for so long it’s not entirely unlikely it’s gone to his just because he gave them a job they should just be quiet about the abuse they have been through thats ridiculous they have the right to speak out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nATAH 47,950 Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 ok but if mark and michael are speaking up... this means this has been an issue since TMBT has gaga really been that unaware for this long? or is she just powerless? the fact none of the dancers are mad at her speaks volumes for her innocence but i just can't find a connection on how this has been a thing for over a decade with seemingly no major action taken mother, what must i do?
