The singer fronted a vigil at Los Angeles' City Hall, reading out the names of those who were killed in the attack.
"Let's all today pledge an allegiance of love to them and to their families, who are suffering so deeply," she read.
"They are sons and daughters, they're fathers and mother, they are all of our brothers and sisters. Tonight, I will not allow my anger and outrage over this attack to overshadow our need to honour those who are grieving, truly, for their lost ones."
Through tears, the 30-year-old singer said that she was an ally of the LGBT community.
"Not only me, but everyone here...we represent the compassion and the loyalty of millions of people around the world who believe in you. You are not alone," she said.
The Born This Way singer also wrote a number of emotional posts on Twitter.
The world is in peril. Today get stronger. A workout, silent time, clear your rage. Then go out and spread that strength all around you. ❤️🌏

Ignore voices that aim to divide us, this only leads to more violence between people. We must unite as humans, where we are all the same. 🌏
