Is romance dead? You would think so from seeing the prolific over-sexualization of women in music videos and gratuitous sex scenes on television and film. Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Madonna, Beyoncé and Jennifer Lopez are only a few artists out of many that come to mind when I think of songstresses whose fashion motto is “barely ...
I am a Little Monster. And Lady Gaga is my mama. I was so excited to see news reports last week of Lady Gaga’s new non-profit foundation for youth, the Born This Way Foundation (BTWF). But wait a second. Don’t the words “Born This Way” allude to the existence of a “gay gene?” That our sexual ...

In a recent interview with Howard Stern, Lady Gaga told her young fans that they should wait to have sex. Too bad she was dressed in a scantily-clad, bondage-inspired outfit.
If you’re feeling anything like Rihanna as of late, it’s a sure bet that chains and whips excite you. It’s not like there’s anything particularly wrong with wanting some innocent S&M if it’s not hurting anyone (who doesn’t want it), but when you’re a woman who has experienced violence at the hands of your partner ...
A group of students from Bath Spa University in the UK have accomplished the impossible by creating five couture dresses. A feat in itself, but these are made entirely out of cheese. The cheeses used include Pilgrims Choice Vintage, Red Mature and Leicester, all heat molded and then sculpted into their creations. Inspired by Lady ...
Lady Gaga is a gay icon who has used her celebrity status to support LGBT rights. That is, until last night’s SNL digital short entitled “Threeway: The Golden Rule.” Gaga is one of many celebrities who has been vocal on the subject of gay rights. One of her most profound acts of support was speaking ...
For most of us, when we think of Rock Star an image of a male musician pops up in our head. We consider guys like Jim Morrison and Jimi Hendrix rock gods, immortalizing them through idol worship and love of their music. But we all know by now that women were there too. Janis Joplin, Debbie ...
