Lady Gaga Makes A Trip To The White House To Discuss Bullying Prevention

Posted on Wed Dec 7, 2011 01:57 PM PDT

gaga-anti-bullying-white-house.jpgLady Gaga met with Obama administration staffers at the White House yesterday to discuss bullying prevention, and it sounds like she made quite an impression on the President's staff!

Obama senior advisor Valerie Jarrett praised the pop star as “a source of strength for many young people who feel isolated and scared at their schools.” Jarrett added on the official White House blog, “Lady Gaga has described this cause as a personal one — she has said that as a child, she was often picked on for being different. I am deeply moved by the way she has used her story, and her success, to inspire young people, and shine the spotlight on important issues.”

The White House held an anti-bullying conference several months ago, and Jarrett said the administration is looking forward to supporting Gaga’s Born This Way Foundation in an effort to explore how to change the culture and policies around children in school.

While Gaga didn't get to meet with President Barack Obama (he was traveling in Kansas for a speech on the economy), the two met earlier this year when she attended a fundraiser for his re-election campaign in California.



Good for Gaga!

F@ck you Lady Gag Gag. I'm so sick of the celebutards & libtards pushing this anti-bullying crap. It's just a way for "radical homosexuals" (not all homosexuals are radical) to push their gay agenda in our faces because it's only "gay bullying" these mental midgets are concerned about.

The fact that this feckless doofus we have currently in the Whitehouse actually met with this drug addled ego maniac Gag Gag shoes white a douche our "Vacation'er in Chief" really is. It perfectly illustrates how screwed up this administrations priorities are - Barack "Oblaimer" ought to be focusing like a laser on our economy & creating jobs & not on a campaign photo op with a extremely polarizing celebutard pushing a radical left wing agenda in a nefarious effort to social engineer us & our children.

I'm so sick of the DemonRats & the RepubliCunts. Both parties are littered with self serving douche bags. This country needs a VIABLE grassroots fiscally conservative small government Libertarian party.

GAGA HAS FOUND YET ANOTHER WAY TO EXPLOIT AND PROFIT$$$ FROM THE PAIN AND SUFFERING OF A VULNERABLE COMMUNITY!! WHICH GAGA DOES NOT BELONG TO! gaga IS SOOOOO HETERO.

Just like gaga's 'paws for Japan bracelet' SCAM, gaga and her mum, will eventually be sued for STEALING money from the foundation!!

When gaga was repeatedly asked what SHE would do and what her ideas were, she admitted she gave the same answer to everyone="gaga has NO IDEA'S about how to make the world a better place". gaga said that's harvards job to figure out. If gaga's motives were pure, she would have had better and more caring answer's!!!

I'm glad SMART GAY'S have started to "wake up" and realize what a SCAM ARTIST gaga is!!!!!!!!!!!!

John 12:3-6
"3 Then Mary took about a pint of pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.

4 But one of his disciples, JUDAS Iscariot, who was later to BETRAY HIM, objected, 5 “Why wasn’t this perfume sold and the money given to the poor? It was worth a year’s wages.” 6 He did not say this because he cared about the poor but because HE WAS A THIEF; as keeper of the MONEY BAG, he used to HELP HIMSELF to what was put into it."- The Bible

"Lady Gaga gives 50 percent of her earnings to her father

By MAUREEN CALLAHAN

It’s her great paradox: At 25, Lady Gaga may be the most avant-garde performer of the last decade, a self-anointed Queen of the Freaks who reinvents herself with whipsaw rigor, yet she remains very much a nice Catholic girl who is most comfortable with 19-year-old sister Natali, mom Cynthia and dad Joe — who takes an unprecedented 50 percent of her earnings under their LLCs, Team Love Child and Mermaid Music."

"But it’s the 50/50 split between Gaga and her father that’s most unusual. There’s only one other of its kind in the history of the music industry — between Elvis and Col. Tom Parker.

“There’s really no justifiable sense to doing a 50/50 deal with anyone in your career, other than someone you’re partners in a band with,” says Josh Grier, an entertainment lawyer who represents Wilco and Elvis Costello, among others. “Certainly no artist entering a management deal does anything close to that — a commission is usually 15 to 20 percent.”

"That said, it’s quite possible that Lady Gaga, born Stefani Germanotta, believes her father has earned his share of her fortune, even though her success has allowed him to realize a lifelong dream: He now works in the industry, managing aspiring artists. Yet she likely sees this as further evidence of how similar they are; her adoration is unconditional. In January 2010, she told Elle magazine, “I’m married to my dad,” and that September, she told Vanity Fair, “I’m happier than I’ve ever been. I’ve been in my father’s arms for two weeks, wishing [him] a Happy Father’s Day"

"Joe Germanotta grew up in New Jersey, a rock ’n’ roll fanatic who loved Led Zeppelin and Billy Joel and who perhaps overshared with his daughter along the way: “He was having sex with girls under the boardwalk in New Jersey before he went to see Bruce Springsteen,” Gaga said in July. “He saw a lot of himself in me. My first piano teacher was a stripper."

"At the time, Stefani was also performing as a burlesque dancer in downtown nightclubs and working out a more sexually provocative look, often walking down the street in fishnets, spike heels and heavy makeup, mistaken for a hooker or a transsexual, not caring either way. Her father, however, was appalled. Stefani told one friend that her father had reprimanded her for wearing underwear over her tights to a business meeting at Sony: “He said, ‘You look like a f--king slut!"

"As she began making progress, Joe was seemingly swayed by his daughter’s assertion that everything was in service of her art. He’s become so inured to his daughter’s outre costuming that he was recently shot at a party with his arm around Gaga, who was braless in a sheer top, nipples covered with black electrical tape. Perhaps his involvement in the industry accounts for the shift in attitude. Since 2008, Joe Germanotta has worked as a music manager, though none of the acts in his stable has yet to break. His daughter remains his most successful investment."- NY Post site

What went wrong on The X Factor today with Britney Spears?

Britney definitely had another meltdown. This is proof she's not ready to step back into the spotlight!
I think Britney may have overreacted to a bad audition, but it will be entertaining to watch later!
I think Simon Cowell planned this all along. Brit probably even rehearsed it!
