Lady Gaga Shows Grace And Kindness When She Helps SZA With Her Dress After Losing A Grammy To Her
Imagine working hard to make your dreams come true, year after year of ups and downs, joy and tears, successes and failures; all that colliding into a sizable result appreciated by millions and a win of one the most prestigious awards. That will remain a part of my own imagination as I’ve got talent the size of a crumbling biscuit, but it became a reality to many at the 64th Annual Grammy Awards. Lots of moments to mention, many widely discussed, and if you’d like to have a look at our picks, here’s a link.
Whether you agree or disagree with the winners this year, one thing is certain – humanity prevails. 5 seconds of kindness are making headlines and the moment between Lady Gaga and SZA is definitely one to note and remember. Let’s get into it (yuh)!

The road to success is one of hardship, especially when you’ve twisted an ankle and have to make it upstairs in crutches, also wearing a long tight dress

The Grammys were full of anticipation this year, each artist eagerly waiting for the results. It was time to hear who the Grammy for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance was going to be.
The nominees were Doja Cat and SZA for “Kiss Me More”, Justin Bieber and Benny Blanco for “Lonely”, BTS for “Butter”, Coldplay for “Higher Power”, and Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga for “I Get a Kick Out of You”. And the winners were Doja Cat and SZA! Though both found difficulties getting to the stage to receive their award.
After falling out of a bed and injuring her ankle days earlier, SZA made her way to the stage on crutches. Her dress was a skintight mermaid-cut Jean Paul Gaultier gown with a long tulle train, and although gorgeous, it made it harder to move. SZA looked to be struggling as she tried to move quickly towards the stage.
SZA, whilst going to collect the Grammy, was helped by none other than Lady Gaga, who graciously and without asking bent down and carried the long tulle train

When Lady Gaga saw the long train, she didn’t hesitate to reach for it, carry and move it carefully out of the way, so that the singer could make it up the stairs and onto the stage with more ease. SZA later told ET that she was trying her best to get to the stage because she didn’t want Doja to miss out on her moment, not realizing Gaga was being her own personal guardian angel.
The small act of kindness was not missed, people praising Gaga for a very human act of service to another, one calling it ‘a queen helping a queen’. Many noted the loss of the award, yet it shows a great example of grace and respect for those in the same industry, understanding the hard work it takes to get there, regardless of wins and losses.
SZA had one goal in mind, to get on the stage as soon as possible, without knowing that Gaga was there to support her every step of the way

The quick exchange was over and the Grammy Awards continued, but viewers at home would remember the moment fondly

Once on stage, another humorous and heartwarming moment would occur as SZA was joined by Doja Cat, who had her own adventure getting on stage

Another humorous and touching moment happened afterwards. When SZA got on stage, she was awaiting Doja Cat, who seemed to be rushing to the stage. SZA called out “girl, you went to the bathroom for 5 minutes, are you serious?”
Doja made it just in time, but completely out of breath. She looked out into the audience and said, in a very honest Doja Cat manner, “I have never taken such a fast p*** in my whole life.”
She heard that she’d won the Grammy for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance whilst in the bathroom, so she made a dash for the stage

Regardless of the struggles, the two women were incredibly grateful for the award, Doja getting emotional at the end

Doja proceeded to thank her family, team, and fans for everything they had accomplished, Doja turning to SZA to say “you are everything to me. You are incredible. You’re the epitome of talent.” She then begged SZA to say something whilst she caught her breath.
SZA was just glad Doja got back in time and it appeared that was the moment that Doja realized the significance of the win. She got emotional and tearful, saying “I like to downplay s***. But this? This is a big deal.” You can’t help but love her.

Gaga was shown supporting the women, getting emotional herself. It’d been an important evening for her, too

Lady Gaga is no stranger to the Grammys herself. Having received a win for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album for ‘Love for Sale’, her total number of statues rose to 13.
She also performed on the night, a beautiful medley and emotional tribute to Tony Bennett, who’s been forced to retire last year due to his ongoing battle with Alzheimer’s disease. He’d partnered with Lady Gaga in the final years of his career and created music for new generations to enjoy. She declared at the end of the performance: “I love you, Tony. We miss you.”

She didn’t leave the Grammys empty handed. Gaga won her 13th award, recalling the time she won her first one, saying it’s still as emotional

Gaga also posted pictures on her Instagram, recalling her first wins, saying: “I won my thirteenth Grammy last night, and I cried just like the first time I won for ‘Just Dance’.”
“Tony and I are so grateful for this honor. I was so proud to be a part of such a beautiful community of musicians where so many people were rewarded for their artistry. Congratulations to everyone for all the awards, performances, and for your devotion to music. And thank you for that standing ovation! You truly lifted my spirits on a night where I truly missed my friend—he would have been so happy that in 2022 everyone stood up for Jazz! I love you!!”
She came back a little later to clear up that it wasn’t Just Dance but rather Poker Face that won her the first Grammy. But regardless, it meant the world to her.

It’s becoming common for Gaga to hit headlines for her kindness and humanity, just like the time she helped Liza Minnelli at the Oscars

This will most likely be one of many moments Gaga makes headlines this year for her kind and sweet acts, such as helping Hollywood legend Liza Minnelli through announcing the nominees for Best Picture at the Oscars.
Liza seemed to get flustered but Gaga took control and managed to reassure Liza in the process, whispering to her “I got you” and the legend responding, “I know, thank you.” To read more about the wholesome interaction, you can click the link here.
It’s not surprising that she’d be kind enough to help a fellow singer, but it’s difficult not to appreciate the respect and love she shows to fellow artists.
People have run to Twitter to shower praise and love for Gaga. What did you think of this story? Let us know in the comments

Why are ppl surprised? Have y'all not watched Gaga in the last decade? This woman is the most genuine, caring, compassionate, supportive women on the planet. Especially when it comes to other women (unless you're Caitlyn Jenner. YouTube Gaga & Caitlyn Jenner & watch the clip of them outside the Oscar's! Gaga throws hella shade) she is the definition of classy and mature. She would never be salty about losing an award or ever act immature. If anything, she's happier when other women win. Watch past award shows where she has lost to other women... she legit seems happier for them then when she wins herself. That's just who she is. Even if you don't like her music.. you can Atleast respect her for her character. She's a very talented & amazing woman.
Anyone hating on Lady Gaga can suck on a hot dog turd. And I'm not even a fan of her music, but she is one admirable woman.
"suck on a hot dog turd" is a phrase i am going to be stealing

Such a beautiful thing to do - and just like her kindness to Liza at the Oscars - it is so obvious that Lady Gaga is a very rare celebrity who hasn't let fame change her.
She is authentic, really beautiful inside and out.

She is most definitely a beautiful, talented, classy, genuine, absolute sweetheart of a Lady and I love her so much.
I love Gaga so much ! I didn’t like her at 1st but she definitely grew on me and now I think she’s great ! I’m going to try and watch House of Gucci right now !
Lol if a man had held her dress no one would care. I hold A door open for A random women at least twice A day at some point... They say nothing lol. Most of all not thank you lol.
She’s nice to you just as long as you’re not a Christian and love Jesus
Lady Gaga is just the most amazing person ever!!! She is so kind and caring!!! I’m even such a huge fan of Lady Gaga. She inspires me to reach my dreams in becoming what I want to be, which is to be a famous singer and actress, as well as being a chef. They’re all amazing though, not just Gaga. I send my love through my phone to them.
LADY GAGA is a GODDESS among all the other artists!!! CLASS should be her middle name and GODDESS OF TALENT, how she is introduced on stage.
Any man trying could have been charged with sexual assault. You have Feminism to thank for this mentality. I'm sorry, you don't get to kill chivalry and then complain that its dead. Fakk off.
Too much confusion this days, men not acting like men anymore. Men want to be women and women want to be men, what else can you expect.
I wonder why she and Taylor Kinney didn't work out. When they started out as a couple, I remember them saying they were "soul mates".Sad.
So women need a man? Or they need help because they can't do it on their own? Y'all need to pick a lane. If a man had coat tails that dragged would anyone have batter an eye that no one got up to help him? Come on bro
I understand cynicism especially nowadays but sometimes people really are just kind.
