The four are being represented by the Servicemembers Legal Defense Network and executive director Aubrey Sarvis said praised Gaga for her support and called on the US Senate to get rid of the law.

Gaga was nominated for a record-breaking 13 awards and won seven of her eight gongs for the single Bad Romance.

She was handed the award for best video by Cher and revealed that her new album would be titled Born This Way.

Bad Romance won Best Female Video, Best Pop Video, Best Dance Video, Video of the Year, Best Choreography, and Best Editing categories, while her video for Telephone featuring Beyoncé won the Best Collaboration award.

Gaga had several costume changes throughout the night with two gowns having been made by the late fashion designer Alexander McQueen.
