Lady Gaga’s Grammy Speech: A Love Letter to the Trans Community
At the 2025 Grammy Awards, Lady Gaga once again used her platform to champion inclusivity and love. Accepting the Best Pop Duo/Group Performance award alongside Bruno Mars for their hit “Die with a Smile,” Gaga delivered a heartfelt message:
“Trans people are not invisible. Trans people deserve love. The queer community deserves to be lifted up. Music is love. Thank you.”
Her words resonated deeply, earning a standing ovation from the star-studded audience, including luminaries like Charli XCX, Beyoncé, and Billie Eilish.
This isn’t the first time Gaga has stood up for the transgender community. In May 2024, she publicly supported trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney amidst online harassment, emphasizing the importance of compassion and understanding.
Gaga’s unwavering advocacy serves as a powerful reminder of the role artists can play in promoting acceptance and love. Her Grammy speech not only celebrated musical achievement but also reinforced her commitment to uplifting marginalized communities.
In a night filled with memorable moments, Gaga’s heartfelt words stood out, highlighting the ongoing need for visibility and support for the trans community. As she aptly put it, “Music is love,” and last night, that love was palpable.
