That was a non-event. Lady Gaga brushed up against him and his back was turned, so he didn't know where it was coming from. He was just surprised. No grand conspiracy here.

Women shouldn't be socialized to suck it up and take it anymore, and all the "old ladies" like me on this board need to get used to a new generation who stand up for themselves instead. Good for her. I hope my daughter doesn't sit back and take behavior like that reporter's as though that's what she deserves and it's her place to absorb it. Eff that.
She didn't appreciate what he was doing and she said something about it in a way that the reporter himself laughed at. Then she answered his question. The fact that people are upset over a woman doing this in 2016 is more of a story to me than the actual news story.
Eek, I hope my daughter doesn't resort to being condescending and rude to stick up for herself.

Anonymous wrote:Yeah I think this is about policing women over what's acceptable behavior for them. If Liam Helmsworth or The Rock had gently corrected a dude with humor in this way over rudely using his phone during an interview to take pics, it would not be a news story. But a pretty lady with bright lipstick does it WTFOMGBBQ?! Total double standard.
She smiled (a bit) when she did it and made a joke about it, then followed up with another joke, then patiently answered his question. If a bro did that it would be called Wednesday.
