2014 sounds like a fun experience! So wait you stopped Cynthia to give Gaga a gift…the day before? Like you saw her randomly or were you around where you knew she’d be strategically? When you said you had a gift to “give her daughter” I thought you must be referring to Natali or something…but it was for Gaga and she actually got it via her mom? Just want to understand! 

I was at the Roseland taking a picture of the marquee (Gaga was set to perform later that week). In my bag was the gift I made for Gagas bday (two metal style shirts of her parents) cause I went out to find a box or giftbag to fit them in. (Ended up buying some ribbon instead). While I walked down the street I saw her parents walk up the street. Because it was so coincidental, I mustered up the courage to speak to them. I said I had a gift for their daughter but they politely declined, which I totally understand. When I came around the corner I heard pokerface as it if was blasting from a car radio. I then noticed some fans glued to a door looking through a crack. Turns out Gaga was rehearsing. I waited for her and got to give her the shirts myself.

The next day she proudly wore one on them and posted about on Twitter tagging her sister. I had another set of shirts with me, so when we went to Joanne's, I planned to leave them there for Natali, so both sisters would have them. But when we left the little private room and headed to the bar we noticed Cynthia. I said hi and apologized for stopping them on the street. She was so excited to see me and was like "Oh she loves those shirts so much!" and "Look Sheri, it's the girl who made the t-shirts". It was so sweet. I said I actually have them with me so Natali can have them too, and Cynthia was like "She's right behind you." It was such a fun moment. The next night Roseland I wore the Joe shirt and after the show someone yelled from the balcony and it was Taylor, waving and giving a thumbs up. What a sweet bunch of people.

This is so cool! Do you have photos of the shirt or still have the link to her post by any chance?

I've been a few times! It's always been fun tbh (putting the MAGA of it all aside  )

First back in 2016 weeks my partner for dinner, I remember splitting a bottle of "Gaga Red"  

And then I've been to a couple drag and dinner shows which were actually super fun. The food's good enough and seeing all the photos and references to LG is cute tbh.

I think of it as Joe G's restaurant.

He's a man who uses his daughter's celebrity to sell political ideas that are abhorrent to her.  On FoxNews, no less.  

To me, he's a scumbag and I'd never set foot in that health code violation rat haven.
