Lady Gaga [Mega-Merged] Discussion Thread

[Axxess]

Re: I tell you! The Gaga phenomena has finished.

The real question is "now what?" When shock is your schtick, how do you keep the audience shocked ,and thus entertained? You can keep pushing outwards, but when you start in the meat-dresses and wtf video realm, people may already be expecting the outlandish.

Well, if she's trying to shock people, she can try something like this: The MQ - Lady Gaga Steps Out In Sensible Cardigan, Fans Outraged

No. I can't stand the way some gay men talk about these women as if all other gays actually gave a shit. This is not the Entertainment forum, why was this thread posted here? Answer: because for some fucked up reason, anything Lady Gaga is now always considered relevant to anyone even slightly homosexual. Same goes for Madonna and all the other ones.
That's why I feel the need to voice my opinion in these threads. Not all of us are pop culture lemmings.

If it offends you so much, maybe you should voice your concern to the mods so they can move the thread to the appropriate forum.

And I like Gaga's music because I find it enjoyable to listen to. It's not because she's a gay icon. That's just a bonus.

Please. It's dance music and fashion.
A lot of other artists stand up for gay rights, she just decided to get rich by making you think that she was the only one.
These artists didn't embrace the gay audience, the gay audience with their low standards embraced them and then they ran with it.

Whether you like it or not, pop culture and fashion have an impact on our lives. You seem to think you are above the influence of them. However, on reflection, I suppose that makes sense since you seem to think highly of yourself and your taste.

Lady Copycat is a giant bore.

Re: I tell you! The Gaga phenomena has finished.

I cannot imagine the little monsters above to be keen of GaGa from the start.

Nevertheless, she's still sellin' out, like it or not. There is still oil in her chandelier; we just don't know how much remains.

Re: I tell you! The Gaga phenomena has finished.

^ No, Cupid. My friends would laugh at me. I like men more than gaga-puppets.

Well, glad to know you're not one of those people who likes certain bands and music just to fit in with the crowd.

I don't think that I'm better than you for liking something that I like better than something else that you like.

Amen! Well said.

Re: I tell you! The Gaga phenomena has finished.

…She has become a brand, really…

I thought her brand was The Monster That Devoured itself.

Like, will Germanotta be doing the Lounge Acts at Las Vegas in 2025?

Jayden is always right, lol.

Please don't move this thread to the entertainment thread. There's enough garbage posted there as it is.

The only thing she could do that would be relevant would be to kill off the Lady Gaga character.

Re: I tell you! The Gaga phenomena has finished.

That's the point Gaga was overexposed. Lying low and disappearing is the plan. That's why she didn't walk the red carpet during The Grammy's and it is why she isn't doing any North American press. Meanwhile, she's kicked off her world tour - which is seeing numbers only acts like Madonna and Cher have seen. By the end of the tour, Gaga will likely have the 2nd most successful tour by a female act of all time. Her Born This Way album may not have been the monster her previous album was, but her fans are always expanding - proven by her ruling of social media.

In the meantime, light your candle wicks and get on your knees. Gaga's new single/album is coming and you should repent before you die

Re: I tell you! The Gaga phenomena has finished.

My only argument to the above is that I think Lady Gaga is very much a willing participant in (as Malcolm McLaren used to call it) "the rock and roll swindle". I don't think she's the sole crew member of the SS Gaga, but I don't think she's a puppet, either.

Re: I tell you! The Gaga phenomena has finished.

Did she release a new album? I haven't heard much about her lately but normally she's an attention whore who needs to make a scene every day.

Re: I tell you! The Gaga phenomena has finished.

I have nothing against pop culture at all, my pop culture lemmings comment referred to people who buy into the hype of really commercial artists who only exist for the purpose of making money. I believe Lady Gaga is talented, but she's a music industry pawn and she doesn't even realize it, and I hate how her success further underlines that gay acceptance comes at the price of us being good consumers, just like the main reason for why Pride festivals have become so popular - they're economically lucrative.
I'm not completely cynical though, I realize that Lady Gaga's message of gay acceptance and the focus that Pride puts on human rights are positive things that will bear good fruit, but it does at the same time make me feel like initiatives to further gay rights are only worth as much as the amount of money you're willing to spend.

Now I have a better understanding of where you're coming from.

Did she release a new album? I haven't heard much about her lately but normally she's an attention whore who needs to make a scene every day.

No, she hasn't released a new album. I am pretty sure I read that she was planning on releasing the name of her new album in September.

Re: I tell you! The Gaga phenomena has finished.

She is a little quiet now she is touring, but I think she will be back but I think she picked the wrong songs to release as singles from her new album, Marry the Night didn't do too well in the UK Charts, same as You and I, where as others such as Hair and possibly Bloody Mary, Americano or Highway Unicorn may of done better, in my opinion.

I'm a big fan, always have, always will

I like You and I, but it didn't really strike me as the strongest choice for a single. I agree with you that Bloody Mary or Americano would have been better choices, IMO.

Re: I tell you! The Gaga phenomena has finished.

If you are a singer/song writer, music comes first and fashion second.
Music is not all about fashion like lady ga.

I'm hoping our fashionista sista will make a pronouncement on this issue

I rather get on my knees for Taylor Swift cuz her new album is coming in September!!!!!!

So she is in it just for the money? Is that so? She spends a great deal of her own money on her shows... doesn't seem like someone who is greedy. which I admit other pop stars don't do. Maybe Katy Perry and Justin Bieber you have a good case for... but not Lady Gaga.

Sorry but the Goddess known as Katy Perry puts alot of her money into her tour to make the fans happy.

Re: I tell you! The Gaga phenomena has finished.

She seems more interested in the happiness of her fans, then money... which I admit other pop stars don't do. Maybe Katy Perry and Justin Bieber you have a good case for... but not Lady Gaga.

I love how you talk like you know them personally.






Not.
