I’m disgusted. No, offended. Actually I’m both and I’m really angry. Lady Gaga’s latest publicity stunt on stage to portray purging as art is disturbing. Will a stroke be art next? Or a seizure?
Some things are NOT okay and this is one of them.
Purging is dangerous and a symptom of being very ill. Not something to be showcased for publicity. It is certainly not something we want her millions of impressionable fans watching and trying then saying “It all started with Lady Gaga”
Purging is NOT beautiful or cool…..
Unless you think:
Tooth decay
Eroding esophagus
Bleeding knuckles
Bursted blood vessels
Bad breath
Constipation
Dizziness
Burning throat
Desperation
Fear
Ulcers
Inflamed Stomach
Sores in your mouth
Chapped Lips
Bloating
Hospital gowns
Coffins
Are beautiful?
Are art?
Are worth promoting?
Are cool?
No.
Lady Gaga owes her fans an apology.
Lady Gaga owes society an apology.
