Lady Gaga was and will be forever my idol, my inspiration, my entire life. She's so respectful, open-minded and engaged for people.. Without You & I, baby I'd rather die ♥

now we know Obama was listening. thank you gaga

I was there. I got chills when she spoke. Thank you Gaga. You are a hero.

Look how far we've come in a few years. From this speech to now, when gay marriage is legal in all 50 states.

*when marriage is equal in 50 states 😉

"it's not equal if it's sometimes." I love that.

every time i hear her yell "ARE YOU LISTENING" it gives me chills and brings tears to my eyes. this woman's message, in music and spirit, is much more powerful than "get wasted and party and have sex" like most pop stars. she wants us to love ourselves for our different lifestyles, looks we were born with, bodies, and the people we are. therefore, i will never fathom why she receives so much hate for what she's doing.

She is a hero. Obama is listening.

He listened all the way. GaGa and Obama will forever be icons of a very important era. Sadly, things have turned ugly now as we all know, but I still have faith that we will have more amazing people like them when the buffoon is done.

Majin Mexican ew cranky much?

Coming here bc this was featured on an ABC original 4 night series, "When We Rise" about the history of the gay liberation and gay rights movement. Today, we have legal marriage equality yet we are still fighting the fight. But, one of the most amazing things I can say is this series has taught me and my generation that were just coming into realization as to what this is and the fight that this has been a long time. The fight has been long and all generations will fight. My generation and the generations before and after mine will keep on fighting. Every generation has its spark. Mine was the most anti-LGBTQ+ man and vice president being elected into office and only months before the most deadly shooting we have had in America. That also happened to kill 53 of our LGBTQ+ brothers and sisters. For later generations, I hope that the series that I looked this up from is the spark to get them to join in the fight that our past brothers and sisters alike have fought. This may not be read by anyone... from the looks of things I don't think anyone has read or left a comment here in 3 years. But, if anyone does read this, now or 10-20 years from now, know that whatever fight you're fighting. Just started or has been long overdue, will happen if we all just fight hard and long enough. Before the gay liberation movement of 1971 no one knew that 44 years later it would be legal for same sex couples to legally marry. Now its your chance. Because no generation is ever silent, every generation has something that they have stood up for. Let whatever fight you have be it.

Obama didn’t give us Human rights Gaga Did!!

0:35 the world's shortest superhero❤❤❤

He listened

This woman is truly iconic, and truly inspirational. Nowadays a lot of gay youth don’t understand the battle and fighting that was done not so long asgo for being openly and unapologetically gay. She is one of the few that shaped gay rights movement in this time. She was so vocal about gay people and her love for them. I was in high school struggling to find myself, struggling to accept my homosexuality , and her music and her persona, and her outspokenness aided me to be happy and accepting. She was a strong and influential voice for marriage equality she is just , just so influential

I love you gaga, thank you for stand up for LGBT

haha i love how she's standing on a box = ) she's so cute and tiny

its so iconic，and look how far we've come from this moment

I swear I was watching this video yesterday.

I would never be able to stand where I am today without Gaga. She really changed my life and the way I see myself forever. Thank you ❤️

really Lady Gaga for first lady - she has to go in the policy...lovely Gaga she is so friendly and human lover and engaged for humans and rights!!!!! Hands UP

I can't evene express how happy i am!!

holy shit everytime she yells are you listening i get the chills

I WAS THERREEEE. agh. my heart was not beating for 4 minutes listening to her. she's too amazing. she'll always be there for us and the community. i love her TOO much

Here in 2020 I'm so proud of you my girl :") @ladygaga

heres to the ones who change the world gaga xx such an inspiration

Thank you! I'm old 51 I was there. I heard your talk. Thank you! Thank you to all the young people. It's time!!!!!!! Love is stronger than Hate

"They say that this country is free, and they say this this country is equal... but it is not equal if it is 'sometimes'." Very simple words. Very powerful words. I feel Lady Gaga, and I know she feels us.

my hero

WE WERE BORN THIS WAY!

y do they keep taking down her vma/mtv speech... can someone put a new one back up for me? please

i got goose bumps when she screams 'ARE YOU LISTENING!'

Lady Gaga created homosexuality

2:03 "ARE YOU LISTENIIINNNGGG!!!!??" HAHAHA omg

Wow what a throwback!

If I could have just one wish granted. It would be to simply give Lady gaga a hug. She is my inspiration, and she is without a single doubt in my mind the most influential person in our day and age.

2:03 It's when you can see that Lady Gaga make that with his heart and not just with his head.♥

Where does it say this?!?!

Re@Laimek You don't need to be gay to want everyone to have equal rights. You wouldn't have to be a dog to tell someone that beating one is wrong. Lady Gaga is standing up for what she believes is right, and she's not just just a woman who sings. She carries that star power and ability to draw attention to an important matter. That's exactly what she is doing.

I like how you correct his spelling, but don't deny the statement.

I'm not gay nor am I bi. But I believe everyone deserves equal rights. everyone is equal!!

As for your backyard, stay there. As Dorothy said "If I [you} ever go looking for my [your] hearts desire again, I [you] won't look any further than my [your] own backyard. Because if it's isn't there, I [you] never really lost it to begin with." That's right!

2:02-2:06= for me, four of the best seconds of Lady GaGa's speech.

"most important moment in my career." That is the truth. Its a career move above anything else.

I just got chills up my spine.

It's interesting to see her tone down the fashion a bit. I expected her to pop out with chunks of ground chuck strapped to her blouse. She looks really great here..

i couldnt agree more.

no matter how many times i click on that textbox, i cant enter my text there!!!! :( :( :(

and ANYONE can be saved if they choose too. good point

"It's not EQUAL if it's SOMETIMES." That is going to go down in history as an amazing quote.

Lady GaGa is a wonderful artist. Her music alone is reason to love her, and this just takes the cake. Although I don't much understand some of the outfits she wears.

She's an artist and an entertainer, she doesn't try to be like every other artist out there. Give her some credit for being original.

You took the words from my mouth! :D

I seriously always thought of Lady Gaga as just another pop star, but after seeing this, I have a huge respect for her and I admire her very much.

"ARE YOU LISTENING!!" lol. Go GaGa!

i would never forget the speech and never stop fighting the inequity

She's amazing. I love it when people with that much power over the modern world use it for something that actually matters. Some singers advertise lipstick, or fashion labels... and people buy it because they admire the singer. But Gaga advertises this, and we listen because we love her, if everybody with influence signed there name to something that mattered then maybe they could change the world.

Gaga I love you so. I have tears welling up from your speech))

Cold chills .......

Lady gaga is probably one of THE most influential and inspirational people ever.

what an amazing speech, that's why i admire her so much

GRIDS? WHAT CENTRY IS THIS?

In terms of her music, appearance and not being afraid to stand up for what she believes in, that is what makes her brilliant. I admire those who are different and inspire people to be themselves -while standing up for their beliefs- rather than someone who knows calculus and can quote Ulysses verbatim. I'm sorry if you're so one sided that you can only see brilliance in those who are gifted scholastically.

yessss!!!!

@sethdesade Have you ever even seen an interview with her? Shes brilliant.

@gusani834 When did the word adorable start getting associated with sex?

She has been famous since 2008, and had a career starting 2006, so yes, 1 or 3 years is pretty long to me. In that career, she has managed to become a shockingly successful artist in what you yourself see as a short span in comparison. I'm only comparing how they stand behind a stand and speak, not what they have done :] Logic, again.

I'm so sorry that because of other people's ignorance, we feel we are inadequate or inequal and are treated as such by our own country

Why do people have problems with other people in the first place? Why cant everyone just be ... nice? Normal? Happy? I dont get it. But im glad she's bringing attention to this issue, and probably grabbing a young audience for the cause as well.

She has got a beautyful voice, not only when she sings, but also when she just talk...Thak you.

I don't know why your comment was marked as spam... it's completely just! And I agree 100%.

I admire how she stands for what she believes in! Inspiration to all

they say this century is equal, but it is no equal, if its sometimes. i love that line, its the best one in the speech which was so inspiering and amazing !!!! :P LOVE GAGA

Through her our voice is much louder

i love when she says Obama i know that you're listening hahaha

This woman is so strong, and I love her for it more than I think I can express with words.

When GAGA does things like this, it makes me love her much more day by day! I'm straight but I love what Gaga demands and what she wants.... FULL EQUALITY FOR ALL OF US! Love you Mother Monster!

I thought I was looking at Gwen Stefani :D

@gusani834 I absolutely adore your comebacks. They're so manly and creative. -sarcasm-

look, its randy jackson in the crowd!!! thank you randy!!

The world is not asking for permission to evolve. It just goes on. Thnks Gaga, you're amazing.

The mention "God, cosmos, intellectual unity" is as seperate possibilities/theories of what it would take to change all of humanity, which is not likely to occur. I'm simply stating that humanity is far from enlightenment as a whole, and the journey to do so is hardly by way of legislation. I didn't say people can't live their lives as they wish, please see the point.

@TheFallingMatty What would you call it then?

Let's have a moratorium on celebrities addressing political rallies. Lady Gaga is an expert on singing, and that's about it.

Awwww, hello troll! I'm so glad at least I got to respond to you, you so happy now!

That's no mule, that's my wife.

@Killbot1776 I don't know what you are talking about because when the gauntlet is thrown down it gives people a challenge; the challenge to make a world of peace and diversity.

In humanity there is a wide spectrum of possibilities in each element of what makes us human... Each individual has the possession or lack of: Affection, balance, beauty, bravery, caring, character, cheerfulness, commitment, honesty, intelligence, morality, self-control, etc. The GLBT community is further proof of humanity's wide spectrum of possibilities. Accept it or not, the inverse of your reality will always exist, and also realize that not everyone will accept it... I just acknoweldge it

From a different perspective, she is actually more eloquent than one would assume from her stage image. Also, to those that are trollin' on her, you are certainly welcome to helping create social equality. If you're not doing anything good in this world, your criticism means nothing.

There needs to be demonstrations held in every crevice of the country at the same time .There are plenty of people that live in middle America that support the gays but they haven't had the opportunity to stand up. It's a powerful statement to be in one place in a huge number , it's even more powerful to be everywhere at the same time, for the same cause.Imagine every place that has a gay community marched at the same time .

"...let me guess your a...." In this context it would be "you're," a contraction of "you are." There would also be a comma after "guess."

this woman is very important to this march because people look up to her and she spoke and showd that so many people can make a change.....i was there wen she spoke and i rioted. i am a proud bisexual and lord knows we can make a change.

thank you lady gaga , finally some one stands up for us , and it took a beautiful young lady to do it! blee you , thank you , i love you !

gaga is amazing, no more coments I don't have words to describe she's incredible

oh really? i wonder why i cant write down in a visa application im married!!! and even worsewhy i cant apply for a K1 visa!!!! do you know what a K visa is????

THANK U 4 YOUR COURAGE TO STAND UP 2 HATRED AND HOMOPHOBIA THAT IS AN EPIDEMIC IN OUR WORLD!! LOVE IS LOVE!!

I love her and I love this community so much ❤️

I'm not really a fan of her music (for dance I prefer Tiesto, Ferry Corsten, Kaskade, etc.) but this...is awesome! As a bisexual who ended up a homeless teen and a highschool dropout for coming out, to see someone mainstream and famous speak up like this-that is fxxkin awesome!!!!!!!!1

the same reason everyone else wants one, now why can't we again?

You can give equal rights by legislation, but you can't change humanity with written law... That would take something of a higher level. God, cosmos, intellectual unity... that is still missing from our lives.
