Lady Gaga made her first public appearance since undergoing hip surgery in March at this year's NYC Gay Pride Kick Off Rally tonight, June 28, 2013. Click below to listen to her speak and perform "The Star Spangled Banner"!

The international superstar also spoke at the event, which was hosted by "RuPaul's Drag Race"s Pandora Boxx at New York's Pier 26 between 7 and 10pm tonight. As reported by Billboard, the singer said in her speech: "We are not a niche. We are part, a big giant part of humanity. It's time for us to be mainstream. I demand the rights! To safe streets!"

The recording artist, who is a staunch supporter of gay rights, recently canceled the remainder of her 'Born This Way Ball' tour due to a serious injury which required the surgery. Since that time, she has not made a public appearance.

It was recently confirmed that fellow diva Cher will perform at the Pier Dance, taking place on Sunday.
