Lady Gaga: Melania Trump is a ‘hypocrite’ for supporting ‘bully’ husband
The pop star lashed out at the wannabe First Lady after she promised to fight bullying if her husband makes it to The White House.
It will come as no surprise that Lady Gaga isn’t Donald Trump’s biggest fan.
However, it was Mr Trump’s wife Melania that felt the pop icon’s wrath over the weekend, after the latter promised to tackle cyber-bullying if her husband is elected as President this week.
Gaga called out Mrs Trump’s “hypocrisy”, as she took to Twitter to urge her fans – known collectively as “monsters” – to vote for Hillary Clinton in the imminent US Presidential election.
“@MELANIATRUMP to say u will stand for “anti-bullying” is hypocrisy,” Gaga tweeted.
“Your husband is 1 of the most notorious bullies we have ever witnessed.”
The singer’s comments come after Melania made a speech last week, in which she vowed to fight online bullying in her role as First Lady.
In a speech on Thursday, Mr Trump’s wife said: “It is never OK when a 12-year-old girl or boy is mocked, bullied, or attacked.
“It is terrible when that happens on the playground. And it is absolutely unacceptable when it is done by someone with no name hiding on the internet.”
Gaga also made her feelings clear for Mr Trump – who has been heavily criticised for his own online behaviour during the campaign – during a series of tweets on Sunday (November 6).
“@realDonaldTrump you divided us with hateful language & fear,” she wrote.
“I love everyone in this country and I vote for @HillaryClinton to unite us.”
Gaga – who has changed her Twitter name to #VoteHillary – echoed her posts during a talk-show appearance in Japan, where she dressed as a suffragette whilst promoting her new album, ‘Joanne’.
Gaga branded Mr Trump “an actor,” claiming his Presidential bid was just “an act”.
