While most award winners make sure to thank their bands, managers, fans, studio and label heads and significant others during acceptance speeches, Lady Gaga almost never lets an opportunity slip by without making a pitch for a cause. Given her massive support base in the gay community, typically that cause has to do with gay rights, and Sunday night's VMAs were no exception.
Gaga walked the white carpet with four servicemen and women who had been discharged from the armed services for being openly gay or bisexual, a violation of the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy. She discussed their plight on the carpet and also paid homage to her gay audience by shouting them out during her win for Best Female Video for her "Bad Romance" clip, thanking "all the gays for remixing this video over and over."
