Lady Gaga used her Best Pop Duo acceptance speech at the 2025 Grammys to lend her voice to the trans community.

"Trans people are not invisible," says Lady Gaga in the clip above, standing on stage alongisde her fellow "Die With a Smile" winner Bruno Mars. "Trans people deserve love, the queer community deserves to be lifted up. Music is love. Thank you."

Lady Gaga's comments come in the wake of President Donald Trump passing an executive order stating that the U.S. government now only recognises two sexes —the wording of which may have inadvertently made everyone in the country female.
