And you couldn’t have that special day the way your friends do – you know, wear the ring on your finger and have it mean the same thing as everybody else. Just put yourself in that person’s shoes. It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

Gaga Takes The Top Spot!

Lady Gaga has taken the top spot from Oprah Winfrey on Forbes annual Celebrity Top 100 list, which focuses on the world's most powerful celebrities.  But don't be upset Gaga haters, you still have Justin Bieber at number 3 and Bon Jovi at number 8.  Yeah, I'm confused on that one too, but he's actually, made more than Justin Bieber, Katy Perry and Kanye West combined.  How's that for "Living on A Prayer"?

In either case, the Lady managed to come out on top, because of her influence on current events, young people, earning $90 million last year, having 32 million fans on Facebook and 10 million followers on Twitter.   C'mon people - she sold one million digital downloads of her single, "Born This Way" in 5 days!

Check out the list below:

Top 10 of Forbes’ ‘Celebrity 100′

  • 1. Lady Gaga

You go Gaga! Just wait till your album debuts. You'll break all the records and be right at the top of the charts with Born This Way. Can't wait.
