The couple, married since January, appeared in good spirits during their outing, proud to count themselves as allies to the community. Lambert wore a cap with the word “Pride” written on it in rainbow letters.

Fans of the star in social media were delighted to see her come out in support of the community, and they left many comments in response to the post to let her know about it.

“Thank you for this. I’m a HUGE country fan but also an ally & whenever an artist shows support of the LGBTQ+ community, it warms my heart,” a touched user wrote.

Lady Gaga, strongly associated with the Pride movement since the early years of her career, gave a performance in front of the Stonewall Inn, where the riots started five decades ago, kicking off the LGBTQIA+ movement in the US.

“It is said that those who threw the first brick on that historic night were members of the trans community,” the “Born this Way” singer told Huffington Post.

“And while we have made tremendous progress, we find ourselves also at a time where attacks on the trans community are on an increasing rise each day. I will not tolerate this,” she added.
