And in times of crisis all of these injustices are amplified, because we…

“Tik Tok hates Gaga clearly.” Cheryl Hole had a bit of a freak out earlier this week when TikTok removed her brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique (you know the rest) tribute to Lady Gaga’s music video for Stupid Love.
