The Mother Monster has spoken, and she is not backing down. In the latest chapter of the Lady Gaga-Kelly Osbourne feud, the “Born This Way” singer defended her previous statements amidst an attack from Kelly’s mom Sharon. Gaga lambasted Kelly Osbourne’s ” bullying ” of celebrities on E!’s Fashion Police, encouraging her in an open letter to make the world kinder, not more negative. In response, Sharon Osbourne slammed Gaga on Facebook, telling the singer to stop being self-righteous and engaging in hypocritical bullying behavior. What did Gaga have to say about that? “The ‘real world’ can be cruel, why not try to change it into a better place?” Gaga wrote, reiterating her previous point and stating simply, “I am an activist.” “My letter to Kelly Osbourne was open, because her statements on cyber-bullying were public & as a youth activist I’m compelled to be involved.” “Nobody takes adolescents seriously, I do.” Kelly, meanwhile, has been detailing death threats and other verbal assaults that she often received from Gaga’s fans, collectively referred to as “little monsters.” “They’ve said I should kill myself, that they hope I get raped,” she told UK’s Fabulous . “I mean, it’s crazy but I’ve had this all my life and I just try and ignore it.” Gaga said that’s the whole point – as a bullying victim herself, Kelly should realize the impact hurtful words have and set a better example as a celebrity. Unmoved, Gaga wrote the younger Osbourne, “To see you blossoming into a beautiful slender woman who makes fun of others for a living is astounding.” “Why not help others?” Choose your side : Team Gaga Team Kelly/Sharon View Poll »
