Is Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid secretly a Lady Gaga superfan?

On Saturday, Reid twice messaged the pop star on Twitter — shortly before the Senate voted to repeal the “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy banning gays from serving openly in the military and immediately after. in fact, his first Twitter message after the vote was to Gaga, who had previously lobbied him and other senators via Twitter to overturn the controversial policy.


“We did it! DADT is a thing of the past,” Reid wrote to Gaga. (A Reid spokesman tells The Ticket that though Reid didn’t hit send on the message, he asked a staffer to send the note for him.) The singer didn’t directly respond, though she did mark the Senate’s historic vote in a separate tweet.

But that didn’t discourage Reid, who cited Gaga in a Sunday press release trashing Republicans for stalling ratification of the so-called START nuclear arms treaty with Russia.

The statement listed significant events that had happened in the world since President Obama first reached agreement on the pact with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev in April. near the top of the list: Lady Gaga’s meat dress, which she wore to the MTV awards in early September.
