My Heart Breaks for Families ‘Mercilessly Targeted By ICE’
Published
Lady Gaga took a moment at her concert in Japan to blast ICE … calling out the way they “mercilessly” target families in a passionate speech.
The singer-songwriter was performing in Tokyo Thursday night … when she took a break from playing songs to get real about the state of the USA.
Lady Gaga condemned ICE in a speech during her show in Japan: “I wanna take a second to talk about something that it’s extremely important to me, something important to people all over the world, and especially in America right now. In a couple of days I’m gonna be heading home… pic.twitter.com/Bv3MVuUQmi

Gaga says she’s headed back home after her incredibly successful ‘Mayhem Ball’ tour … and her heart’s aching for all the families dealing with immigration raids and other scary situations with the federal law enforcement agency.
She goes on, “I’m thinking about all of their pain and how their lives are being destroyed right in front of us. I’m also thinking about Minnesota, and everyone back at home, who is living in so much fear … and searching for answers of what we all should do. When entire communities lose their sense of safety and belonging, it breaks something in all of us. I hope that you’ll all stand with us tonight.”
Gaga acknowledges she’s not in the U.S. … but, she says she wanted to bring it up because the crowd is with a community — and she asks everyone to stand with those affected on the other side of the world.
She calls on America’s leaders to change their course of action … and to have mercy on her fellow countrymen.

Gaga then says she wants to sing a song with a hopeful message … before launching into her hit “Come to Mama.”
As you know … two U.S. citizens were shot and killed by federal immigration agents in Minnesota this month — Alex Pretti was shot multiple times on a busy Minneapolis street Saturday, and Renee Good was shot by an ICE training officer on a residential street on January 7. Trump Administration officials labeled Pretti and Good domestic terrorists immediately after their respective deaths.
