Lady Gaga and former Vice President Joe Biden appeared in a public service announcement together to discuss sexual assault.

LADY GAGA HOSPITALIZED FOR ‘SEVERE PAIN’

Biden called Lady Gaga a “voice” for those who were abused and admired the courage she showed. Biden called on everyone to speak out if they see sexual assault occur.

“And we want to make it real clear. It’s on us, it’s on everyone to intervene — to stop abuse when they see it and when they hear about it, to intervene. No man has a right to raise a hand to a woman for any reason other than self-defense,” Biden said.

Lady Gaga spoke next, referring briefly to her experience with sexual assault and its aftermath.

"But we're here to remind you that it's important to reach out to someone in your life that you can trust and to know that they will be there to help you; there will be someone to listen. Because you know what? It's on us,” the “Million Reasons” singer said.
