Lady Gaga appointed co-chair of Biden's arts committee
President Biden has appointed Lady Gaga, Shonda Rhimes, and George Clooney, among others, to co-chair the President's Committee on the Arts and the Humanities, which was dissolved under the Trump administration. The committee will advise the president on cultural policy, and its members were chosen for their "serious commitment to the arts and humanities." The move is part of a broader effort to restore arts programs after they were gutted under the former president.
