I'm not dissing her music at all, I personally alternatively like/love most of her music. I just don't see how her clothes make her any greater or a better artist. Why should an artist be judged on how they dress?

unless you're Elton John or something

Your argument is completely flawed. Have you never heard of Madonna?

Basically, her motives are the same as Madonna's too. Shock factor. Be as crazy and outrageous as possible to get people's attention. Lady GaGa wears a meat dress and "hangs" herself in a performance? Madonna basically has sex on stage and compares John McCain to Hitler. All to get the masses attention and keep people talking about them.

Lady GaGa is NOT original. Thank you.

Also Takuma I love you <3333333

Actually, your argument is flawed, sir.

First of all. "Original stuff" and "No one has done this before" actually referred to the meat dress, and therefore.
Also, how is not knowing what her motives are and not caring about them make me flawed. Of course, everyone says that it's for shock, which most likely is, but you're not Lady Gaga, and you can have all the speculations you want, but you will never know for sure unless she says it herself. Still, I said that I DIDN'T CARE about what the motives were, so it really doesn't matter anyway.

And yes, I do know about Madonna, and I respected her just like I respect Lady Gaga now. Of course, she's not the first to use shock, nor the last. I would say that she pushed the extremes, but still, I'm sure many had done it before Madonna too so your argument doesn't even stand.


@Cuddlebun: I never said it made her artist or even a better person, I just said that I enjoyed what she did and found it entertaining. Also, all the artists do the same things, and it's little things like this that makes an artist stand out. Just like when you go to apply at work or university. There are thousands of others just like you applying, but what makes YOU better than the thousand others are the extra stuff you do outside of school/work.

Also fashion designers have been making retarded clothes for years.

Idol huh? You gay?

If you want to know about her motives, she said extremely early on that she wanted to be a commercial shock artist. Would she repeat those words now? Probably not.

Wow, I really like it <3
Sadly she's not a metal vocalist .-.

It's cooler to hate on Gaga than to like her.

Obviously Lady Gaga doesn't have talent, guys. She's only been trained in this, she only went to NYU for music. It's not like she had to audition to get in or was forced to take private lessons or forced to write songs while under constant pressure, who says music majors ever have to do THAT? Oh wait.

Or...

Gaga has talent. You can even get talent on your iPhone these days!

I think i figured out why she's not a metal vocalist. To be a one, you need to have a good voice and be a good singer.

Seriously. I don't adore Lady Gaga, but I don't deny that behind the pop exterior is an extremely talented musician. Unlike other pop acts today (Katy Perry, Ke$ha, etc.), she actually could make a name for herself even if she wasn't doing standard pop music.

Honestly, they don't let people without at least some talent into uni music programs.

why did she change? she was extremely good before she adopted the pop veneer bullshit

god what a waste of talent
Mogsy
Because that's what makes her money. As unfortunate as that fact is.
