Combined, the three incidents have stirred social media users to call for the guard involved in all altercations to be fired.Cannes Film Festival has repeatedly come under fire for its treatment of people of colour, and in recent years has worked towards increased diversity in its jury and film selections.
The slashie star is currently promoting Gaga Chromatica Ball, a new HBO concert film released over the weekend, showcasing her 20-date 2022 world tour. "And the way that I saw it also is the fans were all putting themselves in harm's way every day coming to the show."Gaga's comments sparked backlash on social media, with commenters labelling her actions "reckless", "wildly irresponsible" and "hypocritical".Meanwhile, other Gaga enthusiasts are delighted that Gaga Chromatica Ball concludes with the announcement they've been waiting for: LG7, aka her seventh studio album.
