In a radio interview the pop star was asked whether she was going to use the massive platform that is the Super Bowl to take a stand against Donald Trump, Gaga dismissed the question saying she believes the Super Bowl is not the place to make that statement since it's a family show.
"No. That’s not what the show is about. The show is something that is coming from my heart to everyone in America that I love so much. This is my country and I’m proud to be a pop star from this country. I’ve travelled the whole world and it’s still something special to be from America. I want people that watch the Halftime show that Pepsi Zero Sugar is putting on with us to feel the greatness of the USA. That part of it will be there,”
When pressed about the fact that she has a HUGE platform to take a stand against trump she replied:
"“Because I know I have a bigger stage that day, and I’ve had a lot of really big stages that I’m very grateful for, you know the power of your voice. And I would like to use that power to bring people together on that day. Saying anything divisive is only going to make things worse. And that’s just not what I want for our country. So, I’m going to take the stage with the wonderful dignity and love that my mother instilled in me when I was very little, and just do this one for the kids in America.”
