“Russian officials are considering prosecution against Lady Gaga and Madonna after discovering they entered the country under incorrect paperwork. As any Moscow visitor will know, Russian immigration can be extremely complicated. But Gaga and Madonna’s mistakes weren’t just discovered by accident: prosecutors launched their investigation only after being contacted by one of the singers’ most outspoken enemies. The man in question was Vitaly Milonov, who serves in St Petersburg’s municipal legislature and authored St Petersburg’s law banning gay ‘propaganda’.”
