Lady Gaga‘s using her platform at the Grammys to back the gay community… saying trans people aren’t invisible — and, the queer community needs to be lifted up.

The singer-songwriter and Bruno Mars won the Grammy for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for their song “Die With a Smile” … and, after thanking her fiancé Michael Polansky, Gaga used her time to defend the trans community.

Check out the clip … Gaga’s says now it the time to have the backs of queer and transgender individuals — adding that music is all about love.

It’s a short, powerful statement … one definitely spurred on by recent political moves — like Donald Trump announcing the U.S. government will only recognize two genders.

Trump signed the executive order mandating just two genders back on inauguration day … and, it stripped away some rights trans individuals have fought for over the years.

For example … federal agencies have been ordered to enforce a bathroom ban — making people use the bathroom that coincides with their sex at birth rather than their gender identity.

Gaga isn’t the only person to speak on politics in their speeches … Chappell Roan asked music companies to provide healthcare to young artists. Shakira shouted out the other immigrants in the country like her, and Alicia Keys defended DEI initiatives.
