Lady Gaga’s Tour to Offer Free Therapy

Always one to try something bold and socially helpful, Lady Gaga announced that her upcoming Born This Way Ball shows will provide free counseling sessions to attendees who seek it.

Therapists will be available at a pre-show "tailgating experience" on the BornBrave Bus, which will also feature food, games, and DJ sets from Lady Starlight.

"BornBrave Bus Is a place where mental health + depression are taken seriously w/ no judgement, FREE real help available to all... I feel like most kids don't look for help because they feel embarrassed so mom + I wanted to break the stigmas around 'help' and make it fun," Gaga wrote on her Facebook.

In light of recent shootings and the LGBT community's continuing struggle for acceptance in some areas, Gaga's spotlight on mental health is quite admirable.

The Born This Way Ball kicks off in Vancouver on January 11.

Taylor Swift Spreads the Wealth Around

Taylor Swift likes being famous because she can buy other people coffee.

The “Love Story” singer insists she loves sharing her good fortune with other people, and particularly loves surprising strangers with her generosity.

“Now I’m in a better position to be a bigger tipper when I’m out at a restaurant. People don’t expect it and you can make their day,” she said. “I like going through a Starbucks drive-through and paying for the person behind, just because it’s nice.”

Despite her fame, the 19-year-old singer insists she is still careful with her money and takes advice from her father on how to invest and save.

“I think it’s crazy as a star that you get free stuff when you can afford it,” Swift explained to Britain’s Daily Star newspaper. “I don’t spend a lot of money. My dad is a financial advisor and has given me a lot of advice.”

Meanwhile, Taylor insists she has forgiven Kanye West for invading the stage during her acceptance speech for Best Female Video at the MTV Video Music Awards. “I’ve forgiven him as I don’t want to start anything. I’d never met Kanye before, and was a fan,” Taylor claims.

Kanye - who took to the stage to insist Beyonce Knowles should have won - has since apologized for his actions. “That was Taylor’s moment and I had no right in anyway to take it from her. I am truly sorry,” West stated.
