Paparazzi! Oscars photog slammed for Lady Gaga grab
Her “Poker Face” may have slipped.
A photographer for the 2023 Oscars was slammed for seemingly touching Lady Gaga’s waist without consent.
In a now-viral clip, Lady Gaga — born Stefanie Germanotta — rushed to the aid of a shooter who fell on the champagne carpet and helped him up.
The photog, who has yet to be identified, stood up and then pat the “Born This Way” singer’s back and hips two times, seemingly earning him a glare from Gaga.
The video was posted to Twitter that night and has been viewed more than 16 million times as of Thursday afternoon.
“Why is no one saying anything about him touching her waist like that and her looking VERY pissed off because of it,” read the caption. “She ran to help that man and he basically slapped her butt area like???? she looked down in shock i feel bad.”
“Men don’t realize what this is to us,” slammed another writer. “An how many of us just turn around an DEAL.”
“This why you just laugh at mens failures and not help them out,” tweeted one more.
However, other tweeters rushed to weigh in with other observations.
“She’s clearly looking down at whatever that lady was picking up off the floor,” said one user alongside a slowed-down version of the video.
“He was literally in the middle of standing up from a fall I think he was kind of just reaching out to the person that was helping him and steadying himself,” stated another commenter. “You guys do too much.”
“LMAO she just wanted to help and he just used an opportunity to harass her,” slammed a third user.
The Post has reached out to Gaga’s representatives for comment.
Gaga — chapped lips, T-shirt and all — appeared at the awards ceremony to perform “Hold My Hand” from the Tom Cruise action flick “Top Gun: Maverick.”
