Lady Gaga is celebrated for her outrageous outfits and statements -- the very differences that made her a target for bullies while she was in high school. Now, she is celebrated for her commitment to ending bullying through her Born this Way Foundation.

Gaga hopes that soon all differences will be accepted and not mocked.
