Rats enjoy “bopping to the beat” of Lady Gaga’s hit song Born This Way, study finds
Scientists have revealed that rats enjoy dancing to Lady Gaga’s hit LGBTQ+ inclusive single Born This Way. Back in 2011, Mother Monster released her second studio album to critical acclaim.
The beloved record featured smash singles such as Judas, The Edge of Glory, Yoü and I and Marry the Night, as well as fan-favourite tracks Government Hooker, Scheiße and Heavy Metal Lover.
However, the album’s stand-out single was its title track, which made waves on numerous international charts. In the years following its release, fans have considered the song an LGBTQ+ anthem.
But a recent study shows that human listeners aren’t the only ones enjoying the dance heavy single. In a report from Science Advances, researchers found that rats have a “human-like sense of rhythm” and are particularly drawn to Gaga’s Born This Way.
