Blue Jeans 3,815 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Recently after Gaga's Oscar Performance a lot of people on social media and even people at my school today (it was my first day of school after the holidays) were saying that Gaga is just a character created by a record label and that she never really liked pop nor wanted to be a pop singer, but she sold out and became this "thing" Like no, if you really know Gaga you'd know that she is a musician who always wanted to do Pop and become this Pop sensation, Gaga is not a character its just an extension of Stefani, the Sound of music tribute is as Gaga as Bad romance.. When i watched this interview again I remembered the true essence of Gaga, she really wanted to be famous and be big and be the Biggest POP star in the world she loves Pop and nobody forced her to do pop music. 22:55 "I always wanted to be a pop singer, that was the ultimate sort of dream come true for me, is that i would work endlessly towards this experience with music" Destiny is for losers. It’s just a stupid excuse to wait for things to happen instead of making them happen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better Day 5,766 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Gaga is an extension of Stefani. But Lady Gaga plays many different roles Together You And I! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugarfall 3,723 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 It's just the general perception of everyone thinking that all pop stars are label creations Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladey Gagz 2,512 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Not really. If you're not a fan, you're bound to think that she's a character. She really looks/acts differently when she's classy and when she's Gaga.If people say she's a character created from a label and she's a sell out, sure it bothers me. But if they say she's a character without it being a bad thing, then I don't mind Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dayman 5,903 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Gaga is a character. I know Die Antwoord isn't universally loved by this fan base, but they recently did an interview and they spoke about creating their personas. They may be exaggerated and larger than life - but it leads to a more honest version of themselves. They're saying things they wouldn't say if they didn't have those personas as masks - Gaga is the same exact way. Being Lady Gaga is a way for her to express the parts of herself she wouldn't otherwise. There is a disconnect that leads to expressing personal experiences in a more honest way - even if it does seem more avant-garde and extravagant. Really, this is what ARTPOP was all about - just listen to Aura, it's all right there - from the intro to the final chorus. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xoxo cupcakke 4,781 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Katy Perry, X-Tina, Madonna, Michael Jackson, David Bowie, The Artist Formerly Known as Prince are all characters too so some people better realize this before coming after Gaga. At the end of the day, a commercial musician is basically their own mascot and they have to get their message out there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
liz89 373 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 It's just the general perception of everyone thinking that all pop stars are label creations​this. People think that every pop star is just a creation and totally manufactured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jester 6,197 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Judging on what Rob Fusari said she didn't really always like pop But yeah, she real, she's an artist, and she's not a character in all this just for the money Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
giskardsb 12,565 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 She didn't sell out, she "bought in" and made it her own. Gaga/Stefani is a multimedia artist and Pop is a multimedia entertainment. Fusari did have to convince her to do electronic dance though if you believe old interviews. I suspect when she said she wanted to be a pop artist she initially had something more organic in mind. At this point it's obvious that it's important to her that people see the real talent underneath and Pop can hide that. Many pop fans are fine with mediocre musical talents that need technology to help them "sing". Gaga has been proving that she needs no such assistance.
