She wrote that song when she wasn't even famous tho.

Yes. It happens, and people don't understand that it can happen. That's why Gaga talks about it and other troubling things that happened in her life. Discussing such things heals her, and can heal some others, too. I live outside the space time continuum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenniferella 2,774 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 It doesn't surprise me at all ! And even if I'm often tired of her obsessing over the negative parts of her career, I'm glad she talks about this. I can't even imagine how lonely she and a lot of other A-list celebrities must feel. It's a win-loose, there is no in between it seems and honestly I don't know if I could handle it if I were to be famous. You just can't meet real, genuine people when you reach that social level "I have been writing LG5 since I was 13" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Summy 58 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 In some early interviews she talked about having "mastered the art of fame" etc. but I guess that was a lot of youthful idealism. By now she had to realise that the bad sides to fame aren't so easily dismissed and she has to take good care of herself, even if it means less commercial success. I think she's on the right track for having a long career now but I believe she'll always be on an emotional rollercoaster in this business. She can talk about how her experiences made her tough, but underneath she's a very sensitive and emotional person... and those are the very characteristics that allow her to write heartfelt songs and perform them like she does...

I agree with this 100%. I remember those interviews. I think she anticipated the brutality, but she's such a sensitive artistic soul that it affected her more profoundly than she was expecting, which culminated in that period where she basically stayed stoned out of her mind, which would later culminate in the ARTPOP "blackout." I also think that in overcoming all that, she's now on a much better trajectory. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Letmelivemylife 8,715 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 This just breaks my heart. We put "fame" on such a pedestal and when someone says they want to be famous, they just see the seductive side of fame (the exotic cars, huge mansions, loads of money, etc). But fame has a dark side. If you really think about it, fame is incredibly isolating. The moment you step outside, you belong to the public. There's no such thing as privacy. You can't just run to the grocery store for milk and bread without it becoming a huge ordeal. People wait outside your home trying to get glimpses of you. Deep down I think that if gaga had the choice, she would just take her monsters and leave everything else behind if that makes sense I love you monsters. I'd be unfixably broken without you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bitchimtrying 2,495 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Ok, but lets all remember that Fame can be so powerfully overwhelming that it can literally kill people. We are lucky that we still have Gaga, this could have gone in a completely different way, aka. Kurt Cobain, Janis Joplin, Amy Winehouse, just to name a few.
