Lady Gaga is being slammed by her own fans for an ad campaign in which she teams with pharmaceutical giant Pfizer for a migraine drug. Gaga posted a snap of herself at her The Chromatica Ball Tour last year featuring a huge watermark in the top right corner for Nurtec ODT. What followed were slides straight from Pfizer's marketing team featuring safety info, side effects, and general information about the migraine drug. Gaga - who has been open about her medical struggles - posted it with a lengthy caption featuring a mix of her own statement along with advertising/legal jargon. Part of the caption read: “Ever since childhood, I’ve dealt with migraine pain. When I tried Nurtec ODT (rimegepant) 75 mg for the first time, I’ll never forget wishing I had found it sooner. That’s why I’m proud to partner with Nurtec ODT. [purple heart emoji] We’re in this together. If you’re ready to speak to a doctor, ask about Nurtec ODT today. #MHAM” Her fans didn’t like the posting; one wrote: “you really are such an embarrassing sellout, it's really disappointing.” Another said: "ma'am??? since when are you doing sponsored posts??? This is wild.” Another wrote: “Posting a photo of the chromatica ball during pride month but being a migraine ad is homophobic.” Lastly, a different fan expressed disappointment with Gaga for posting the ad but nothing about it being Pride Month.
