's Philanthropy
Aside from recording music , Lady Gaga has contributed to a number of charities and causes throughout her career .In the wake of the 2010 Haiti earthquake there were numerous celebrities working together for the cause of helping restore what had been destroyed , and also helping those left to survive. Gaga donated all of her proceeds from the January 24 show of her current tour, the Monster Ball (ticket sales, merchandise, etc.), and from her online store; the total amount donated was over $500,000 .
Lady Gaga has also worked to raise awareness among young women about the risk of HIV/AIDS. Along with recording artist Cyndi Lauper, Gaga teamed up with MAC AIDS Fund's VIVA Glam campaign, which raised over $160 million to fight against AIDS and HIV, and bring awareness about the diseases to women around the world.
All proceeds from a purchase of a VIVA Glam lipgloss or lipstick go directly towards the fund to aid those infected with the disease . In a statement , Lady Gaga said that,
" We want women to feel strong and feel strong enough that they can remember to protect themselves. To have this lipstick as a reminder in your purse, that when your man is laying naked in bed, you go into the bathroom, you put your lipstick on, and you bring a condom out with you...There are no exceptions."

She kinda looks like Madonna in the beginning when she takes of her glasses... thats just me.
I like this video... its different and creative. Haters always be hatin but all they're doing is increaasing fire. lol. And people who are complaining about how the song don't start in the beginning... it's called a music "VIDEO"! Nobody complain about Micheal Jackson's Thiller music video.
