Lady Gaga's little monsters in China have their fangs out about her recent meeting with the Dalai Lama.
On Sunday, the American singer posted a series of pictures on Instagram of her posing with the exiled Tibetan spiritual leader.
Both the Dalai Lama and Gaga met at the 84th annual U.S. Conference of Mayors in Indianapolis during a panel hosted by Ann Curry. Gaga later interviewed the Dalai Lama and streamed it on Facebook Live.

Gaga's social media posts immediately blew up with thousands of Chinese fans criticising the singer for supporting the Dalai Lama, whom the Chinese view as a separatist and political troublemaker.
On the picture of Gaga and the Dalai Lama holding hands, fans have even accused her of supporting terrorism:

"Dalai did kind of the same thing as ISIS," one comment read. "He support terrorist attacked [sic] innocent people lives in China by saying 'Tibetan want to be independent.'"
Another Instagrammer wrote: "Gaga do you have any idea what this guy has done. He is basically a Bin Laden to Chinese."
Despite the harsh criticisms, many of Gaga's fans have also jumped to her defence telling detractors they're overreacting.
As the BBC pointed out, however, Gaga might even find herself unable to perform in mainland China in future. U.S. performers such as Selena Gomez and Bon Jovi were reportedly forced to cancel their Chinese tours after they were linked to the Dalai Lama.
