When Stefani Germanotta, a.k.a. Lady Gaga, made news on July 16 by equating Jesus with a bisexual dancer in a performance in Cleveland, Ohio, she only reinforced the belief that there’s nothing she won’t do to sell a disc or a concert ticket. Moreover, she also proved that she is an example of that sick and degenerate type of human who is willing to trample the sacred in order to gain but a smidgen more fame from the secular.

What she doesn’t understand is that stunts like this not only make her look dumb and childish (or rich and spoiled), but also less talented.
Gaga’s emphasis on bisexuality isn’t all that surprising for anyone who has watched her videos. But the listening public had long ago accepted this about her and simply chalked her up as one who was cut from a different cloth. Yet it now appears that her sexual fetishes were but gateway drugs to bigger things: like sheer rudeness and sacrilege.
Remember how appalled Jerry Seinfeld was when he recently met Gaga at a New York Mets game? After watching her flip her middle finger to onlookers and camera crews who wouldn’t quit gawking at her bikini-for-baseball attire, Seinfeld said: “The woman is a jerk, I hate her.” He then went on to lump her together with other “young people” with Hollywood or music careers, and said he didn’t understand why they promoted their careers in the manner exemplified by Gaga. I’d love to hear his take on her now that she’s made the jump from merely being a rude, sexual freak show to an all-out desecrator of mainstream religion. At least singer Katy Perry has reacted to Gaga’s antics by saying: “Using blasphemy as entertainment is as cheap as a comedian telling a fart joke.”
Perhaps one more thing ought to be said about Gaga’s attack on Christianity in Cleveland (as well as in Toronto where she purposely perverted a prayer to Christ while covering herself in fake blood) and that is that she obviously doesn’t understand the very religion she mocks. For example, when she equated Jesus with a bisexual dancer she justified doing so by intimating that just as bisexuals love everybody – they love men, women, and blends of the two – so too “Jesus loves everybody.” I hate to rain on her parade, but Jesus actually talked more about judgment than about grace; more about hell than about heaven. The Bible actually presents God as a deity who loves some people, but hates others.
I don’t’ mention these things in to turn this post into a theological overview, but to simply make the point that Gaga is wrong on all accounts. Her words and her actions rest upon ignorance (or arrogance) and a purposeful blending of the holy with the profane in such a way as to give the profane the advantage.
Seinfeld said it best after seeing Gaga at the Mets’ game: “You take one ‘A’ off of [her name] and you’ve got ‘gag.'”
