Is Lady Gaga A Hermaphrodite?
Recent concert picture sparks rumors that singer is packing.
Getty Is Lady Gaga a hermaphrodite? Fans believe she revealed a sneak peak of her penis during a 2009 performance at Britain's Glastonbury festival.
Admittedly, it's hard to tell in the video below.
The video that made people think that Lady Gaga had a penis:
Yes, she is not wearing much over her pelvic area.
Yes, it is skin tight.
But according to since-deleted post on gossip site Bossip and mentioned on MTV's site, Lady GaGa allegedly confirmed her dual-genderism.
Though the quote below is un-sourced, and thus dubious:
"It's not something that I'm ashamed of, just isn't something that I go around telling everyone. Yes. I have both male and female genitalia, but I consider myself a female. It's just a little bit of a penis and really doesn't interfere much with my life. The reason I haven't talked about it is that it's not a big deal to me. Like come on. It's not like we all go around talking about our vags. I think this is a great opportunity to make other multiple gendered people feel more comfortable with their bodies. I'm sexy, I'm hot. I have both a poon and a peener. Big f*cking deal."
The video that explains the penis and hermaphrodite rumors is below:
In a video from a 60 Minutes Overtime in 2011 while promoting her album Born This Way, Lady Gaga was asked by Anderson Cooper about the rumor that she had “a male appendage, that [she was] a hermaphrodite”.
The singer replied by saying: “Maybe I do. Would it be so terrible?
“Why the hell am I going to waste my time and give a press release about whether or not I have a penis? My fans don’t care and neither do I.”
While it is fantastic that Lady Gaga was able to shut down the Transphobic question with class and grace, the joke is really on anyone who believes Lady Gaga actually has a penis.
And if she did, who really cares?
