Lady Gaga's "Till It Happens To You" Update
Diane Warren gives fans an update on Lady Gaga collab "Till It Happens To You."

Lady Gaga’s haunting “Till It Happens To You” will finally be heard in full (a demo version leaked months ago) in a new PSA directed by Catherine Hardwicke. Co-written by Diane Warren, the track first appeared in Kirby Dirk’s The Hunting Ground — a film that documents rape culture at college campuses. It’s only fitting then that the powerful ballad reach students in such a direct (and hopefully impactful) way.

“You can’t watch the documentary without screaming at the screen,” the director told The Hollywood Reporter. “We tried to capture those stories in a very visceral way and add another voice to this powerful call to action.” Diane shared the article on Twitter today (August 19) with a simple “YES!!!” She has been a vocal supporter of the song, tweeting: “Dear Monsters I want the full version of TIHTY out more than U do!!!”
