Troubled over the suicide of her fan, Lady Gaga tweeted recently that she will meet President Barack Obama to discuss anti-bullying legislation.

“I am meeting with our president,” Gaga declared on Twitter. “I will not stop fighting.” Despite her words, however, there has been no confirmation from the White House that Obama has actually agreed to meet with Gaga. But the pop star will not be deterred: “[Bullying] must end,” she wrote. “Our generation has the power to end it. Trend it #MakeALawForJamey.”

14-year-old fan, Jamey Rodemeyer spoke about the bullying he had to face in school and the taunts he had to bear due to his sexual orientation. He had spoken about suicide in most of his blog posts. He posted the video regarding his distress over the bullying he had to face as part of the “It Gets Better Project”.

He wrote: “I always say how bullied I am, but no one listens.”

Obama earlier in March while speaking about the bullying students in high school had to face said that he wanted to “dispel the myth that bullying is just a harmless rite of passage or an inevitable part of growing up. It’s not.”

Currently, a one on one meeting has not been scheduled between lady Gaga and Obama however, the singer is expected to attend one of his re-election campaigns.

  1. Thanks Lady Gaga. You are correct. Bullying is a crime, not just bullying the gay young people but bullying any student that is different then the majority. Bullying uses words instead of bullets. It inflicts emotional pain that lasts forever. My son Duncan killed himself at 36. He never recovered from being bullied at the Westwood schools in Mass. This mistreatment will not stop until it becomes a crime to do it. Please tell me if I can be of any help to you in this fight. Can you have a signature pettition so the Prescomment_IDent can see how many people support your effort. May your heart lead you towards helping the unprotected, Love and Light, Mira (senior citizen)
