Is Lady Gaga Pro-Israel? blurred-reality.com

blurred-reality.com – Many fans believe Lady Gaga supports Israel over Palestine because of two reasons. First, she has never addressed the Israel-Palestine conflict. Second, she previously praised Israel after performing there in 2014.

Over the years, Lady Gaga has been an advocate for many social changes, with a focus on LGBTQ+ rights, mental health awareness, sexual assault prevention, and women’s rights. Through her songs, public appearances, and philanthropy, she persistently promotes equality and inclusion.

Gaga’s support for the LGBTQ+ community is obvious in her public opposition to discriminatory policies, as well as her attempts to increase visibility and empowerment. She has also bravely addressed her own difficulties with mental health issues, establishing the Born This Way Foundation to promote youth mental health and prevent bullying. It’s safe to say she has been more than a celebrity for years.

However, there is something many of her fans have not been happy about. Her silence about the Israel-Palestine war has left many people wondering if she supports Zionism.

Here’s Why Many Believe Lady Gaga Supports Israel

We believe Lady Gaga is a zionist considering she has remained silent about the ongoing Israel-Palestine war despite having a history of using her platform to speak for the unspoken.

Gaga, apart from her acting and musical career, is one of the biggest human rights activists among the celebrities. From supporting the LGBTQ+ community to spreading awareness about mental health, she has always used her fame to make the world a better place. However, she has never supported or even addressed the conflict between Israel and Palestine, not even after Hamas launched a surprise attack on southern Israel from the Gaza Strip on Oct.7, 2023.

What has added fire to the fuel is she previously praised Israel. After her concert in Tel Aviv in 2014, she praised the country and explained how the world was wrong about the nation;

Tel Aviv was magnificent. The world view of Israel is just not reality. It’s in a beautiful place, the people are in good spirits. I had a very emotional show with those fans. It was wonderful.

And that’s it. Her silence and history of praising Israel have been more than enough to make people believe she is pro-Israel. However, it’s important to note that the singer has not publicly expressed her personal views on Zionism. While she has been involved in a variety of social and political causes, her views on Zionism have not been a focus of her activism or public pronouncements.

Fan Expresses Disappointment After Learning Lady Gaga Is Pro-Israel

Even though Lady Gaga has never shown her support for Israel over Palestine, many fans are convinced that she is an Israel supporter and have even taken to social media to express their disappointment.

Taking to a Reddit discussion, one user wrote,

She has a huge platform and she has had a relationship with Biden for years, and she’s head of an advisory board, appointed by Biden. She has relationships with each of the biggest democrats from Obama to Clinton…She could use her platform to call for a ceasefire in Gaza. She should. She used her platform for human rights her whole career. 

However, a lot of other people defended the singer saying it’s not her job and she does not always have to have an opinion about everything.

It’s not her job to speak about it. She’s not a world leader, she’s a musician

Not to be rude but you should not expect a celebrity to speak about issues they have no knowledge about.

Yes, she’s a huge celebrity and all but she probably knows very little about international politics of this magnitude, staying silent it’s honestly the best thing she could do instead of saying the wrong thing and getting eaten alive like it has happened to many other celebrities.
