This week on The FayWhat?! Show: Here we go again! The right-wing pearl clutchers are quaking after Lady Gaga’s triumphant return to Coachella. Performing tracks like “Abracadabra” and “Zombieboy” from her Mayhem album, Gaga brought drama, dancers in cages, and literal skeletons to the stage in a five-act fantasy that fans are calling “the best Coachella performance.”
The Guardian gave her five stars, and Variety declared she outdid herself. But of course, Far-right critics called it “a Satanic ritualistic style performance,” dragging in trans rights, drag queens, and after-school Satan clubs. One unhinged Twitter user claimed Gaga and other queer-adjacent stars like Sam Smith and Beyoncé are part of a fame-for-Satan trade deal.
