Why It's Time to Stop Paying Attention to Lady Gaga
I tried avoiding writing about Lady Gaga for a really long time. Wasn't interested. She's just a disposable pop singer with no observable talent, like most disposable pop singers. But I can't avoid her anymore, because she's everywhere. Wherever I turn, there's Gaga. On TV, in magazines, at all of those Lady Gaga concerts I attend, even on the Internet. Earlier this week, every social networking site was buzzing because of the controversy stirred up by her latest outfit: ![]() And that's when I realized that I needed to say something. She's still all over the news even though she's well beyond the Sell By date of a typical pop star, and it has nothing to do with her singing abilities. Everyone's talking about what a "brilliant artist" she is, like a Warhol-esque genius. And either I'm a crazy person, or someone has to stop this nonsense. Someone needs to go and fly out to whatever space brothel she operates out of and say, "That's enough, Lady Gaga." But my rocket doesn't reach psychedelic tramp-funk levels, so I can't personally talk to Gaga. Instead, I'll just write about how she's not any of the things every magazine, critic and entertainment show tries to convince me she is. She's Not Some Free-Spirited Performance Artist While most rationally-thinking people rarely celebrate Gaga's skills as a musician, plenty of music critics and other socially awkward white people who are bad at having opinions will agree on one thing: Lady Gaga is an artist who isn't afraid to be a freak. She went on Oprah and said "the message of Gaga is 'be yourself.'" She doesn't fit into any mold. She's a crazy free spirit. She won't conform to any existing pop standards. Additional meaningless originality platitude. That certainly sounds like it's referring to some kind of genre-bending, authentic artist. The problem is none of it applies to Lady Gaga. WATCH THIS VIDEO HERE YOU WILL BE SHOCKED http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NM51q...ayer_embedded#! ![]() She looked like this. And she played piano, not some kind of electricity-shooting stage volcano. "Wow" is right, Worst Emcee on the Planet, wow indeed. She's not awful and, even more surprisingly, not at all annoying. She's just like a less refined, less smoky Norah Jones mixed with, like, if Christina Aguiliera had a little sister that was never given voice lessons. If Stefani had continued performing as a person and not a spiky, pale freakstronaut, in an alternate universe, I could really see myself passively tolerating her music for the sake of appeasing a girlfriend. But, Stefani realized that the "Soulful Chick Songwriter Market" was tapped, so she decided to go an alternate route (the "Shrieking Shemale Star-Goblin Market"). When it was clear that she wasn't going to be selling out any tours as a songstress, she very carefully crafted a persona that was deliberately designed to drive as much attention towards herself as possible. There was a moment where she decided "This act won't sell. Let's come up with one that does." Her whole authentic, artistic character was decided by committee in a marketing meeting. Maybe she's smarter than everyone else who is struggling to break into the music industry. She saw how completely retarded pop culture was and decided to embrace it. She found out what was going to attract attention and exploited it to turn into a star, in a celebrity-by-numbers sort of way. As a businesswoman, she is incredibly shrewd--the amount of magazine covers, awards and nominations she's gotten in the past year alone is staggering. But she's not an artist, she's a product. She's Not a Fashion Icon Lady Gaga's look varies from day to day, concert to concert, magazine cover to magazine cover; so it's tough to pinpoint what, exactly, her place in the fashion world is. Her costumes, always surprising and Avant Garde, range in style from the bizarre and controversial Bladerunner Nightmare Chic... ![]() ![]() Now, full disclosure: I wear one of three pairs of torn jeans and a probably-stained white T-shirt to work every single day and have since I was hired. I know as much about fashion as I do about getting mustard stains out of white T-shirts which, as you can probably guess, is very little. I showed up to the office with shoes that didn't match. For 11 straight days. One of them was a flip flop and the other was a woman's hat. I know nothing about fashion, is my point, which is why I'm uniquely qualified to talk about Lady Gaga's wardrobe choices, because she doesn't either. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() She's Not Original Lady Gaga's originality seems to be her only selling point among even people who hate everything about her. They look at her and say, "Well, at least there's no one else out there just like her," like a parent struggling to find a compliment for their least favorite child. Whenever some entertainment news show covers her, they invariably say something along the lines of: "Love her or hate her, you have to admit that she's a totally unique icon! Coming up after the break, we check in with superstar Lou Bega! Here's hoping he gives us a high (mambo number) five!" But, of course, she isn't unique in any way. She is exactly one part Madonna and one part Marilyn Manson. She looked at two people who received massive amounts of attention--Madonna for being hyper sexualized and scandalous, and Manson for being aggressively controversial--and instead of saying, "Let me come up with something new in that same family of publicity," said, "I'll just do both of those things, all the time." ![]() Manson, on the other end of the spectrum, would just try to be as theatrically scary and controversial as possible. He'd use blood in his act, he'd cut himself, he'd talk about what an outcast he was. "Society doesn't accept me because I'm too IN YOUR FACE. LOOK AT ME!" Madonna took teenage girls who wanted to piss off their dads and Manson took teenage boys who wanted to piss off the football team and they built little armies. Armies that would go on to buy millions of records. So, you take this: ![]() ![]() I think this is Lady Gaga. Man, who the **** knows anymore, that could be the dude from The Strokes.But she's not. She's the kid who ate worms at lunch because, "Hey, at least people are looking at me." And now the whole world watches what she does. People who actively avoid pop music have heard of her. She was one of Time Magazine's Most Influential People. She's tricked everyone into believing she's some creative genius, and she's just going to keep doing weird, pointless, nonsense bullshit until she's dethroned by the next incarnation of Lady Gaga, some little boy or girl who is at this moment quietly learning all of Gaga's lessons for their own cartoonish version of pop stardom. She's doing it all while A) making loads of money and B) dressed like a cracked-out Wookiee-poacher at a Rod Stewart lookalike contest. Yep, that is exactly what that is.Read more: http://www.cracked.com/blog/why-its-time-to-stop-paying-attention-to-lady-gaga/#ixzz10wrtPK4A |

she might be doing that because she's ugly to be honest. I mean seriously if you usually see such girl will you say she's hot ?, you might not want to look at her even, but now she is one of the most desired girls , she knew she was ugly and all this controversy she has has made her more sexy in some way. I mean even in that meat thing, she might be trying to make some people think about undressing her and f*cking her. I am sure she has that in her mind in the first place when she wears such thing. Just like some people hide their "ugliness" by trying to make plastic surgery or fixing their hair or whatever, she is taking it to another level , .... all that only to make young men like you think of f*cking her. I am sure some people here probably reached a point where they would prefer to do her instead of some more " common beauties" that usually are 100 times more sexually desirable.
To me that is interesting. First thing that made me think this way is that she never tries anymore to wear normal things or look even 1% normal. She tries to have the weirdest looks ever so that you will never look at her as an ugly girl but as a weird girl which is totally different because ugly girls are just ugly no matter what but weird girls "can" be hiding some beauty and she wants to delude us to think she's beautiful. And she is doing that just great. I'm not trying to judge her ofcourse but everything she does comes from an inferiority complex. Still all people are attention wh*re to some extent, but she's smart enough to succeed in grabbing the attention. It's not fair anyway that some people are born more "beautiful" than others so she found a way to balance it herself. |

Here what I think. Do I like what she's wearing sure not it's disgusting! But do I find it creative YES! I mean who thought of wearing "meat" before? I call this being smart to keep getting attention! Her style/fashion the key of her being famous. So whether we like her or not we can't deny that this woman is smart and knows what she's doing. Nothing wrong with having a creative imagination!
