Our favorite fame monster is lending her voice (and nude pout) to spread awareness of HIV/AIDS with the launch of MAC Viva Glam Gaga 2 Lipstick and Lipglass.
Lady Gaga reprises her role as spokesmodel for the latest MAC Viva Glam campaign in support of the beauty brand's philanthropic efforts to address HIV/AIDS protection,
