Lady Gaga Ends Deal With Target Over Gay Issues

She has nixed a deal to sell a special edition of her upcoming album at the retail giant.

 

The Advocate reported Tuesday that the singer wasn’t comfortable when she learned that Target donated corporate funds to MN Forward, a political action committee that supported antigay candidate Tom Emmer in his failed 2010 run for Minnesota governor.

 

Gaga previously Billboard that her relationship with Target was tied to their “reform … and to redeem the mistakes they’ve made supporting those [antigay] groups.”

 

A representative for the singer confirmed Wednesday that the two sides “came to a mutual decision to end their overall exclusive partnership a few weeks ago.”
