This bitch is hardcore, PERIOD!! She totally rocks, dances, poses, struts, sings (not lip sync) & entertains. She is exactly what we have been missing for the past decade or so. Stage drama, not personal drama. I want my entertainer to entertain, not live for off stage drama. She has that something that Madonna had when she first came out. She also has paid her dues like Madonna & I would bet my whole Madonna collection ($350 Xtatic Process book included) that she basically becomes the same level of performance as Madonna. Britney has let me down so many times & hers has past. Xtina wants to play mama. Beyonce is going towards films, but she doesn't inspire as much as she could. GaGa is the new blood. She has the X & IT factors.
Remember she is, for all we are told & seen, is who she is. No parent agent, no handlers, no record company controlling her music. So if you hate her, it's because she is too much of an artist & performer that most have not seen in a good decade. She reminds me also of Cyndi & Annie, as well as a few other extreme fashion singers out of the 80's. Grace even. GaGa GO GIRL!
