US Election: Lady Gaga captured protesting outside Trump Tower

Singer Lady Gaga has been photographed protesting outside Trump Tower in New York City, just hours after the billionaire businessman claimed victory in the US Election.

Gaga, who is a prominent supporter of Hillary Clinton and performed on her last day of campaigning, cut a long figure stranding on a truck while holding a sign that read “Love trumps hate”.

The musician was in tears earlier in the evening while she sat backstage at Clinton’s election night party, according to MSNBC Political Correspondent Kasie Hunt.

She also took to Twitter where she posted “I want to live in a #CountryOfKindness where LoveTrumpsHate” alongside the photograph of her outside Trump Tower.
