How the Founder of Lady Gaga’s Biggest Fan Site Ended Up in Prison
Well, this is quite the story to wake up to. Kirill Nguyen ran one of the biggest Lady Gaga fan sites around, and ended up detained for standing up against the Belarusian government, which tells you something about the stakes involved in activism in certain parts of the world. It's a sobering reminder that behind the fan communities and music passion we celebrate here at Cledvibes Radio, sometimes there are real people taking real risks for what they believe in. We're glad he's out and back to enjoying his music, whatever he's streaming these days.
