Gay icon Lady GaGa wants to become an ordained minister in California to officiate over the wedding ceremonies of her gay friends.
According to the UK tabloid Heat Magazine, the star has already taken an online course and would like to marry gay fans on stage.
The Alejandro singer is an outspoken supporter of gay rights. In thanking MTV for 13 Video Music Award nominations, more than any artist in MTV history, she said, “God put me on Earth for 3 reasons: To make loud music, gay videos and cause a damn raucous.”
While voters in California banned gay marriage by approving Proposition 8 in 2008, the law was struck down last month by a federal judge. An appeals court decision expected early next year could pave the way for the resumption of gay weddings in the state.
Lady GaGa said the ruling moved her to make music.
“At the moments notice of PROP 8 DEATH I instantly began to write music,” GaGa tweeted to her nearly 5.3 million followers. “BUBBLE DREAMS FOREVER! FULL EQUALITY! THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING!”
“REJOICE and CELEBRATE gay communities and straight all over the world,” she tweeted moments later. “Our voices are being heard! Loud! SCREAM LOUD AMERICANOS!”
