Lady Gaga has been nominated for the Outstanding Music Artist prize at the GLAAD Media Awards.

The "Applause" singer has been recognized by the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender organisation for her long-standing support of gay rights, reflected in her new album ARTPOP. The pop superstar faces off against Elton John, Vampire Weekend, Tegan and Sara and Goldfrapp in the hotly-contested category.

There are a grand total of 130 nominees for the 25th annual GLAAD Media Awards, which celebrates outstanding representations of the LGBT community in areas including music, movies, TV and journalism - including 93 nominees in English-language categories and 37 Spanish-language nominees.

Other notable nods include new Netflix prison series Orange Is the New Black for Outstanding Comedy Series, Oscar-nominated Aids drama Dallas Buyers Club in the Outstanding Film - Wide Release selection, and the Michael Douglas and Matt Damon-starring Behind the Candelabra for Outstanding TV Movie or Mini-Series.
