WATCH THIS! Wisconsin Students Interpret Lady Gaga's Hair For The It Gets Better Project
&feature=player_embedded#!
Wisconsin Students Interpret Lady Gaga's Hair For The It Gets Better Project In support of the It Gets Better Project, Colton James Boettcher's artistic vision takes shape in the form of a music video interpretation of Lady Gaga's song, Hair. Hair is about being yourself, being true to who you are; as the song exemplifies, "you are the spirit of your hair, it's all the glory you bare", YOU are your #hair."As most of us know, growing up isn't easy. Countless young people are faced with daily tormenting and bullying, causing them to feel isolated and alone. This is an especially harsh reality for LGBT kids and teens, who often hide their sexuality for fear of bullying. In many instances, gay and lesbian adolescents are taunted, sometimes even tortured, simply for being themselves.

5. Thanks! Glad you took me up on the suggestion!

I have watched it four times this morning, and I'm too old to dance like that!!!!!!!
I don't even know Lady Gaga other than from one or two songs and seeing her picture. You can see I don't get out much, either! |

10. HEADS UP!!!!!! Lady Gaga has tweeted and linked it on Facebook !!!!!

The thumbs up on this are over 4000 already in one day on Youtube!
The wonderful Lady Gaga said the following Lady Gaga "This is so AMAZING tinyurl.com/7jd638s #HairMusicVideo you guys did such an amazing job for #ItGetsBetter. The Choreo! I died!" I got a personal message back from Colton, himself (producer)..for my praise for the work of all of them. |

11. Just want to let you all know, in 3 days, 300,000 + views...
|
with world-wide viewing, comments in French, German, Russian, Chinese, and probably half a dozen other languages, mostly in praise of this video.
Hope you all are still passing this video along to your LGBT friendly allies. I think it got to 300,000 with Lady Gaga endorsing it as early as Friday noon, the "mother" of "paws up", as she is often called, has worldwide fame. |
