Here's What Lady Gaga's Election Shirt Means

by Kali Borovic

It's no secret that Lady Gaga supports Hillary Clinton. She's changed her social media names to #VoteHillary and showed up at multiple political events. Now that the big day is finally here, she's wearing more casual campaign attire. According to her Instagram, Gaga wore a cropped "Be With Her" shirt for election day. The saying might be short, sweet, and to the point, but the unconventionally designed tee makes a big statement.

She might have been busy finishing up her Joanne album, but that doesn't mean she's taken a break from politics. Just this week alone Gaga has worn a suffragette outfit, a sequin vote for Hillary shirt, and been vocal at multiple Clinton rallies. Now she's opting for even more political attire for Election Day. This time there's a twist though.

While some people are sporting their "I'm With Her" shirts for the big day, Gaga went for something a tiny bit different. Instead of just saying that she's with Clinton, the singer is urging other to be with her as well. She swapped the classic graphic tee for one that says "Be With Her." It might seem like a little change, but it really does make quite the statement.

Gaga posted two different photos of the shirt to her Instagram. The first made the red, white, and blue pattern look more like a symbol than a word. It was clear to see from the wide shot that it was the word "be." The singer always has her own ways to wear trends, and this is no different.

The pearls are a nice touch. Like I said before, this isn't the only political attire she's sported recently. Dressing up as a suffragette was one of her boldest statements all political season. Not only did she pull off the look, but she reminded people how important it is to vote.

There's nothing I love more than fashion that makes a statement. If anyone knows how to do that — be it in a graphic tee or a full-on ball gown — it's Gaga.
