Lady Gaga Posts Fierce Defense Of Dylan Mulvaney Following Anti-LGBTQ+ Hatred
HuffPost
"Hatred is hatred, and this kind of hatred is violence," the pop icon wrote after Mulvaney's photo of the pair drew transphobic vitriol.
Lady Gaga is speaking out after her International Women’s Day post with actor and TikTok influencer Dylan Mulvaney was inundated with anti-LGBTQ+ commentary.
On Monday, the 13-time Grammy winner lambasted the online vitriol that Mulvaney, who is transgender, had received for sharing a photo of the two together just days earlier. She also called out media outlets for mischaracterizing the “appalling” response to the image.
“When I see a newspaper reporting on hatred but calling it ‘backlash’ I feel it is important to clarify that hatred is hatred, and this kind of hatred is violence,” Gaga, real name Stefani Germanotta, wrote on Instagram while resharing Mulvaney’s photo.
“‘Backlash’ would imply that people who love or respect Dylan and me didn’t like something we did,” the pop star wrote. “This is not backlash. This is hatred.”
Mulvaney, who last year was surrounded by a media firestorm after taking part in a high-profile partnership with Bud Light, originally shared her photo with Gaga on Instagram on March 8 to acknowledge International Women’s Day.
