Yoko Ono awards Lady Gaga peace prize in Iceland
REYKJAVIK (Reuters) – Pop star Lady Gaga was awarded a peace prize by Yoko Ono in a ceremony in Iceland on Tuesday.
Peace activist Ono said the LennonOno Grant for Peace, established in the name of her late husband, former Beatle John Lennon, rewarded Lady Gaga for combining stardom with activism and changing “the mental map” of the world.
“Lady Gaga is in a position of number one as a singer songwriter,” Ono told Reuters Television. “And when you are number one you don’t want to risk yourself. And she did.”
Grammy-winning Lady Gaga, who shot to fame with her debut album “The Fame” in 2008, accepted the puzzle-shaped award in Reykjavik along with a monetary prize that she said she will give to the Elton John AIDS Foundation
Gaga said she would continue to “communicate compassionately to the world and its leaders,” and dedicated the award to “youth empowerment around the world.”

If you watch 1000 pornos you won’t see people jerking each other off as often celebs do to each other.

Honest to God, those people (Yoko Moko, “Lady” Gagger) remind me of the cocktail party Statist Sycophants in Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged.
OMG, I just realized, Ayn Rand was a prophet, not a novelist!
Lady Gagger gets a Peace Prize?! We are doomed.
Waiting for John Galt…

Neither one of those no-talent she-hags have any relevance to any sentient, rational American. Yoko Ono would be eating rice gruel and hooking for nickels if she hadn’t run roughshod over John and controlled him like a puppet. Lady GooGoo is simply a filthy, despicable female that is a great indicator of the lack of taste in millions of her adoring fantards that spend money to watch and listen to her dreck.
