This morning, on the Today Show, Cyndi Lauper and Lady Gaga appeared to show their support for MAC Cosmetics' Viva Glam campaign.
For those of you that are not glamazons who live in the world of MAC, the Viva Glam campaign was started by MAC in 1994 to support men, women and children around the world living with HIV/AIDS.
Lauper and Gaga were chosen to lend their names and faces to the 2010 campaign, and went to the Today show to promote the message about safer sex. I love that they do not mince words!

Quotes from this interview:
Gaga:
"There is no negotiation in the bedroom about condoms."
"It's not only ok for a woman to say 'Not unless you wrap it up.' but you have to."
"This lipstick is a gift and a message of I want you to aspire for a loving and monogamous relationship, and I want you to practice safe sex."
Gaga also talks about how this is a message older women with empty nests need to take home too. Talk about a demographic that is never addressed!
I think it is great that these two women were able to be so forward and direct about such an important issue on a popular, daytime show such as the Today Show. Great work, Gaga!
Yet another reason to <3 Lady Gaga!
