Grammy award-winning singer, Lady Gaga fired back at her former NYU classmates who cruelly started a closed Facebook group titled, “Stefani Germanotta, you will never be famous”.
“Some people I went to college (with) made this way back when,” Gaga said. “This is why you can’t give up when people doubt you or put you down—gotta keep going.”
Gaga’s response came in the wake of a viral TikTok posted on Tuesday, showing the infamous page insulting the singer.
The page’s cover photo is an old image of Gaga, born Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, as a younger, brunette woman with a black X over her face..
The next slide of the TikTok post showed a photo of the “Shallow” singer holding an Oscar with a list of all of her awards which include 13 Grammy awards, two Golden Globe Awards and 18 MTV Video Music Awards and many other achievements.
Fans praised the singer’s reaction and her rise to success in the comment section of the TikTok video.
“Success is the best revenge,” one person wrote.
“She’s not just famous, she’s THE FAME,” another user added.
The now-deleted Facebook group, made by her classmates at New York University’s Tisch School of the Art, had 12 members during the time of the screenshot.
