In 2016, Gaga said of Kesha, 'I feel like she’s being very publicly shamed for something that happens in the music industry all the time, to women and men…I just want to stand by her side because I can’t watch another woman that went through what I’ve been through suffer.'
In a move that would make for a great 'Seinfeld' episode -- 'What's the deal with hugs?' -- the comedian sidestepped an attempted squeeze from Kesha at last night's (June 5) National Night of Laughter and Song event.
Kesha thanked fans and supporters in Nashville Saturday night where she accepted the Human Rights Campaign Visibility Award for her contributions to the LGBT community.
