This is Gaga at the launch of her Gaga Workshop at Barneys last night. The superstar lady has collaborated with Barneys to produce a range of Christmas tut that anyone would be proud to own. From yo-yos to snowglobes and fake fingernails. It's all available online and will make Christmas perfect for fans and fashiony birds everywhere.
On a different level, I just love Gaga for her efforts to hi-light teenage troubles and for trying to bring some of that angst that lonely and confused young people suffer, into the spotlight. A friend of my youngest son, a beautiful, talented, 15 year old killed herself this week. She was being bullied via social networking, by a group led by boys. In fact, while girls get such bad publicity for bitchiness, often boys' activities go unnoticed. Their savagery can be equally, if not more destructive.
There need to be some changes to the law with serious consequences for parents who do not, if their child is proven to be a bully, take action. Also, the rules on what constitutes bullying should be squared up into black and white. Everyone in a community knows when it is happening and to whom. Along with inappropriate touching by adults, what constitutes bullying needs to be brought out, written large and hung out to freaking dry.
