The Iconic Meat Dress

"No one person is more valuable than another person"

-Lady gaga

Lady Gaga is known for spectacular performances and bold fashion statements, but it was not until the 2010 VMA's that she stunned the world.

Lady Gaga walked the white carpet of the 2010 MTV VMA's in a breathtaking Alexander McQueen gown accompanied by four gay and lesbian soldiers who were discharged or choose to leave the military because of the Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy. 

Gaga is a well known human rights activist and chose this national televised event to demonstrate the harsh rules Don't Ask, Don't Tell implies. 

Later on in the night she changed into the iconic meat dress and explained what it symbolized for her, "If we don't stand up for what we believe in, if we don't stand up for our rights, pretty much, we are going to have as many rights as the meat on our bones," she said in an interview by Ellen DeGeneres following the VMA's. 

Lady Gaga in her own way demonstrate's what she strongly believes in and sets a great example for our generation not be afraid to voice our opinions.
