Celebrity support for the National Equality March is pretty widespread, from Charlize Theron to Dustin Lance Black to Annette Benning to the NFL's Scott Fujita. Lady Gaga, perhaps the denmother of the LGBT population, added her name to that list, and she did so with a message for everyone: "Get your ass to D.C."And while that might not be dinner party language, it's a pretty darn good call for people to get together to fight for equal rights. Here's LG:
I was thinking to myself, 'If everyone in this room were to go and bring 10 friends -- which I don't think is a lot to ask because you all have lots of friends -- just from this one night, there would be 10,000 more people marching....' I really believe in this cause, and as a woman in pop music, I think that this is really an important weekend, and it's not a f*cking joke. So, get your asses to DC and wear something fabulous.
And putting her money where her mouth is, Lady Gaga had a sign up sheet at a concert this weekend recruiting folks for buses to D.C. for the National Equality March.
