HANZ 4,380 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 The reason I think that Gaga tweeted this was because I honestly believe that she is sick and tired of being criticized for being unoriginal when her contemporaries are getting away with it. It really is not fair. As far as the whole Born This Way madonna controversy, the two songs share the same chord progression, and a similar tempo, and instrumentation. No wonder they sound similar. As for Katy Perry, as biased towards Gaga as I am, I have to say that her management has plotted against Gaga from the beginning. The time when Gaga announced the applause release date, Katy magically decided to release Roar as the first single from PRISM, when she had just said in an interview that PRISM was not even halfway ready. It was a cool, calculated move designed to hurt Gaga's album campaign which I believe it did. All of these record labels do take competition into account when they plan album campaigns and i'm sure all of katy perry's people sat in a Capitol Music office saying "Gaga is releasing the 19th, we're gonna have you release on the 12 to block her hype". it just so happened that Applause leaked, which made the whole thing much worse. When Katy eventually does release PRISM: The Complete Rainbow Reloaded, Gaga should release ACT II, the same day just to screw with her, because it's not right what Capitol did to Applause. If Gaga showed off her tits and ass and presented the girl next door image like Katy I doubt she would be criticized for "being unoriginal" however because Gaga is not your conventional pop star, she plays piano, she's cabaret, she's theatre people who believe she is not mainstream aim to bring her down with stupid arguments that she's being original. I'm not saying that everything Gaga has done has been 100% her. Her work reminds me of the aesthetic movement known as modernism where she has borrowed from the past and incorporated it into her current work. Anyway the whole point of this is that I say good for Gaga for not taking anymore **** from people who copy her. Gaga is a true, real, artist, who puts a hell of a lot of time, money, and energy into her music, her show, and her fans. Why should an artist who doesn't put as much into her art get more praise, while a real artist gets criticized? this My Favs = Lady Gaga, Janet Jackson, Ricky Martin, AKB48 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaMaisonGaga 23,884 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Honestly, Gaga has the right to be annoyed and say stuff like that every now and then. Dont act like you wouldnt feel the same way. Most of you Im sure would have made a bigger fuss over it if you were in her shoes. That woman has worked her ass off for years to get where she is now and has had so much **** thrown in her face and she’s never thrown it back. She’s never called someone else fat, she’s never called someone else untalented, she’s never called anyone out on their controversial performances, she’s never wrote a diss track,….hell she even wanted people to leave Miley alone after the VMA’s. It is absolutely infuriating to see people rip off your work and scrape by with mediocre attempts at creativity and actually achieve more success when you give it your all. Gaga may not care about her own success but it is still disheartening no doubt. If any other pop girl out there wrote a diss track or shaded Gaga people would be laughing their asses off and fueling the hatred towards her. When Gaga actually speaks up and defends her own integrity and work people boo her and call her a hypocrite like she’s not allowed to fight back and actually has to be everyone punching bag. Even the kindest people in the world have limits and need to vent and stand up for themselves. lamaisongaga.com Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quark 7,089 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 To me what matters is her intentions. This drama is just pointless. Gaga being serious or joking has so little relevance tho, so stop saying that. Nobody gives a **** what gaga was ACTUALLY trying to accomplish eith this tweet. The FACT is that it was her who started this whole dram. It was HER tweet that will stir **** up and backfire in the end. She was not wiseennough to foresee what was bound to happen with that tweet, even if it was in good spirits. Look at this thread, look at twitter. She caused this. She is the responsable for all this. So NO, it doesnt matter what her intention was at this point. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interludicrous 15 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 She is not shading Katy directly simply because she is not serious about any of this. It was a simple harmless joke/comment about what her fans keep posting online. It's not harmless. She fueled the fire for people to start hating on Katy again - an issue that was already way out of line. With a fanbase as big as this she has a responsibility and an exemplary role. A good part of the Little Monster fanbase is already way to hateful without Gaga grabbing onto the pitchfork herself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gagaconvert 68 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 (edited) But the point of my post was mainly: if Gaga sees it as a problem - what would be a smart way to do something about it? I'm not necessarily saying that Gaga should do it that way because I'm not her, but from my point of view it just seems like there's more effective ways to defend herself. I don't even think it's an issue of 'defending' herself though; if she thinks Katy is the one copying her in this case, then all she's doing is pointing it out and fuelling the already rather rampant accusations. It does come across as shady in my opinion. Edited May 8, 2014 by gagaconvert Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
