And much to no one's surprise, Lady Gaga has dissolved her partnership with Target. Turns out, despite all their promises, they're not quite as interested in making amends with the LGBT community as they led Miss Thang to believe.
Bob Witeck of Witeck-Combs Communications, who has nothing whatever to do with Lady Gaga, or her entourage, told Metro Weekly, “Despite the expectation that this was all unfolding as a deal, it has been in a sensitive stage of continued discussion for probably the last three weeks.”
It was reported that Target donated $150k to Minnesota State Rep. Tom Emmer's campaign for governor, last year, and Lady Gaga took interest because of allegations that Emmer is involved with anti-gay groups that advocate for killing gay people.
After Target CEO Gregg Steinhafel apologized to the LGBT community as a whole, and promised reform in their donation policies, it came out that their PAC group had given over three-quarters of their political spending to other anti-gay organizations.
So, Lady Gaga pulled out. And good for her! No use mingling with the trash.
