`Proud` Lady Gaga responds to body shamers

Washington D.C. [USA], Feb. 9 : Lady Gaga, who was criticised for how she looked when she took to the stage at the Super Bowl over the weekend, has given us yet another reason that proves she's 'proud' to have been 'Born this Way'.

The pop star shared an unapologetic message on her Instagram alongside a photo from her seemingly universally-acclaimed 13-minute set.

"I heard my body is a topic of conversation so I wanted to say, I'm proud of my body and you should be proud of yours too," she wrote.

"No matter who you are or what you do. I could give you a million reasons why you don't need to cater to anyone or anything to succeed." She continued: "Be you, and be relentlessly you.

That's the stuff of champions. thank you so much everyone for supporting me. I love you guys. Xoxo, gaga.." While many found Gaga's body inspiring, some criticized her figure after she changed out of her sparkly Versace bodysuit.
