Lady Gaga Tweets 'Pop Stars Don't Eat': Inappropriate or Honest?

Lady Gaga has kept a relatively low profile lately, but a recent tweet has her Little Monsters biting back. On Tuesday, the 26-year-old recording artist tweeted, "Just killed back to back spin classes. Eating a salad and dreaming of a cheeseburger." Harmless enough, but it was the hashtags she added at the end that had critics wincing: #PopSingersDontEat, ironically followed by #IWasBornThisWay.

Now the Twitterverse is attacking Gaga for using the hashtag, accusing her of "endorsing anorexia." One user wrote, "Lady Gaga's #PopSingersDontEat tweet is just wrong & makes her sound like a hypocrite. Lost some respect now." However, others say it's being blown out of proportion. Another user wrote, "#PopSingersDontEat = Not eating whatever the heck you want. Didn't anyone teach you not to take everything literally?" Do you think Gaga's latest tweet was inappropriate -- or was she just trying to keep it real?

    Truthfully, the most "full" life they have is probably in front of the camera. They eat fame and starve to look "good". It's ugly, but its probably very true. I wish she had said they eat "pop tarts". But, maybe that is more something someone like Marilyn Manson would say..... *ponders*

    I highly doubt she was endorsing anorexia. Gaga does many things, but I highly doubt that is one of them. It seems to me that she was using the hashtag to mean #PopSingersDontEat whatever they want. If she was endorsing anorexia, why would she admit to eating a salad?

    So you aren't supposed to eat and get fat and you aren't supposed to not eat and get horribly skinny but your professional existence is totally determined by what you do and what you say too.

    Woah, woah, woah. Instead of yelling at her for picking a salad over the cheeseburger, really THINK for a second.
    1) She wasn't serious
    2) Even if she had been serious, she didn't mean it as "Pop stars don't eat at all," she meant, "Pop stars have to eat healthy."
    3) WOULDN'T YOU BE HAPPY SHE'S EATING HEALTHY RATHER THAN STARVING HERSELF?!

    Honestly nobody should care...but stars are supposed to be role models right? well not that what she is doing isn't good...we need to eat right and exercise but it can get to a point where it is extreme...like imagine never getting to eat a hamburger ever again because you get to a point of being to obsessed over your weight...it is insane

    They strive to keep a good figure. So they probably eat little to nothing sometimes. If that's how they choose to live, then no one had the right to judge how they eat

    It takes a lot of disipline and control to maintain the very slim and trim bodies of the famous. They don't eat cheeseburgers would have been more appropriate but anyone can see what she means. No one would jump her if she said that in private conversation, and that is what Twitter is supposed to be. The fools who look for every "mistake" and the press, who exagerate it, are the fools. She is a singer and performer, what she says or believes is not relevant to the "real world". Stop chasing ever celebrity wannabe and get a life.

    How is this an issue? Everyone who thinks this is bad is just too stupid to understand she was being tongue-in-cheek about it, and that it was just a play on the stereotype of stars starving themselves. I mean really, she says she's EATING A SALAD, then ends that sentence with #PopSingersDontEat. She's OBVIOUSLY not saying she doesn't eat. Like I said, she was just making a tongue-in-cheek joke about the stereotype of the anorexic pop singer.

    What she was trying to tell people with that whole tweet amounts to this: "I'm healthy and lean, but that doesn't mean I don't eat. It just means I don't eat cheeseburgers whenever I want to." How anyone could misinterpret her tweet as anything but that just shows they're idiots. This whole issue just highlights how stupid people are.

    People really need to find better things to be "passionate" about. Isn't it obvious that most pop stars are image and weight conscious...especially while they have the media and the general public to talk and post pics about them if they gain a couple pounds. Remember how well everyone handled Britney and Christina's weight gain and they only went from being skinny to normal size.

    I may not choose back to back spin classes and a salad for myself, but she's exercising and indeed actually eating. Don't hate because it's not a lifestyle you could keep up with to maintain that desired image. I don't get the 'too thin' comments, as she appears to maintain a weight somewhat proportionate to her body size. I believe her tweet was merely an exasperation over the work to maintain that image for the cameras
