Not only is Tim Pawlenty a Lady Gaga fan ... he's a fan of her gay anthem, "Born This Way." In an interview picked up by Mediaite, the presidential hopeful (and "Little Monster"?) noted that "even though she’s a little unusual, 'Born this Way' has got some appeal." He points out that her a capella version of the song proves she's "talented," albeit "a little weird." Other faves? "In terms of the beat, I like 'Bad Romance.'" He also offered up this tidbit of wisdom: "If you had to limit your artistic choices to just conservatives, you wouldn’t have a lot of choices." (More Lady Gaga stories.)
