It was symbolic!

This dress is symbolic. Gaga explained that it symbolized equality among every living being. She wanted to highlight the importance of protecting animals and humans, promoting a message of compassion and inclusion. Note that this was a controversial theme to talk about in 2010, so we can say that Gaga was brave for doing that.

Her male alter-ego

Yes, this is still lady gaga.

joe calderone

Lady Gaga's alter ego, Jo Calderone, is a male character that she created in 2010. She created it to challenge traditional gender norms. Calderone allowed Lady Gaga to express herself in a different way and experiment with different styles and personas. Jo is Lady Gaga's way to make a statement about gender fluidity and self-expression

Interview explained

In case you missed something

Next to this text there is the interview in which Gaga explains the message behind the meat dress. And, basically, the message was: "If you're dead meat, you're dead meat. Doesn't matter if you're gay dead or straight dead, you're still dead". Notice she came at the VMAs with 4 men. Those men were soldiers, that lost their job because they were gay. Gaga wanted to make people understand that the sexual orientation doesn't matter, as long as one is ready to die for their country.
