Not music.

*“Trans people are not invisible.** Trans people deserve love. The queer community deserves to be lifted up. Music is love," Lady Gaga said.*

They're not invisible. They're just less than 1% of the population.

Beyonce wins Best Country Album of the Year.......LOL!

I really could care less 'what' a performer is. I like and listen to music stars of all categories pretty much.

I've seen (and met) rock stars and bands from every continent except Antarctica. And I've seen rockers who are Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Hindu, any old thing. Black, white, yellow, red, brown. And yes, gays. I've seen the openly gay punk rocker Bob Mould. He's terrific and he can kick more butt than several emo 'punks' of today, any day. I've seen the B-52s too, and the Village People. However, since the Village People sold themselves out to the Antichrist Traitor Don last week, they can stick it where the sun doesn't shine! To me that's like playing in the infamous Sun City resort during South Africa's apartheid era, you have to stand against something, I stand against fascism. I spit on the fascist pig!

LGBTQ people are in every occupation, incl. entertainment. That really means nothing to me. Little Richard was one of the first in rock'n'roll and he made an enormous influence and impact. If I like what I hear and see, alright. If I don't, I don't. There are no labels or categories in talent.

The punk/new wave revolution opened the doors for more women in rock'n'roll. It's too bad that the scene is dominated by these autotuned lip-synching gyrating sex robots with nothing to say.

Q: Who's your favorite Spice Girl?

A: Ringo!

Remember that stupid act? Does anybody even want to?

It's all pretty much what George Harrison once described as 'egotistical rubbish' and 'not very interesting'.

****POSITIVE NOTE, ON THE UPSIDE****

I heard today that the 'Only Grammy That Mattered' went to the Rolling StonesJustice!

It's hilarious! Was Gaga talking about transgender musical performers? Nope. Was she referring to transgenders in the music industry? Nope. Was she making an irrelevant, political statement unrelated to music at all? Yes.

The pic shows yet another female “performer” onstage in a bikini. Love the “empowerment”.

Same here, but now sure why you need to mention the race, gender or religion of these people, when it comes to music it shouldn’t matter, the only thing that should matter is just the music.

I've seen the openly gay punk rocker Bob Mould. He's terrific and he can kick more butt than several emo 'punks' of today, any day.

You mean, in your personal opinion, right?

I've seen the B-52s too, and the Village People. However, since the Village People sold themselves out to the Antichrist Traitor Don last week,

No traitor or Antichrist, and what the Village People did was a smart, rational business decision, even though they supported the other candidate, they knew how popular their song is and how much conservatives love hearing it. Nothing good would have come out of being a jerk, whining and screaming nonsensical hyperboles and platitudes that helps no one, especially them. In the end, they lose money, revenue, a stain on the brand, ridiculed, so it would make for a better business decision to perform for the opposition, now they can make more money, saved face, their name and product intact and everyone goes home happy, pride and being a defiant jerk particularly in the music and film business gets you nothing in the end.

they can stick it where the sun doesn't shine! To me that's like playing inthe infamous Sun City resort during South Africa's apartheid era, you have to stand against something, I stand against fascism. I spit on the fascist pig! 

So you hate the DNC, well that’s a huge improvement

LGBTQ people are in every occupation, incl. entertainment.

No one said that they weren’t.

That really means nothing to me.

Nor to most people.

Little Richard was one of the first in rock'n'roll and he made an enormous influence and impact. If I like what I hear and see, alright. If I don't, I don't. There are no labels or categories in talent. 

As it should be

The punk/new wave revolution opened the JJdoors for more women in rock'n'roll. It's too bad that the scene is dominated by these autotuned lip-synching gyrating sex robots with nothing to say. 

But they do say a lot for a new generation of listeners 150 million in the U.S. alone

It's all pretty much what George Harrison once described as 'egotistical rubbish' and 'not very interesting'. 

Most kids don’t even know or care who that is nor do they like their music, so it doesn’t matter what Gen X, Y or the Boomer Generation thinks, that’s not what’s being sold on iTunes or MTV.

Will Smith being there is a testament that America is great again!
