ChvVolk 2,028 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 TF, TFM, and BTW were all Eurohouse, Europop, and Eurodance influenced, which influenced modern EDM It really wasn't From someone who actually has been listening to real EDM since 2006, Gaga has not done EDM, she's done dance-pop and electronic-pop. It's in the sphere of pop a lot more than the sphere of EDM So many people are using the word "edm" and "rave" without fully understanding what those things are Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefamebitch 826 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Haha wow, not gonna lie this situation is definitely turning out differently than I expected. I really thought LG was going to be destroyed by the press, but it seems like a fairly decent amount of the media is siding for her this time. I believe this truly is Katy Perry's Born This Way Era.

SummerGirl21 787 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Too bad it already is. Mainstream pop, that is. I was just quoting Gagz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychedelic 1,098 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 I'm done with fan wars, all I'm going to say is that this is all so messy. Not because I don't think Katy is copying Gaga blatanly in her tour, I actually liked the way Gaga called Katy out on twitter. But because of you guys' attitude. You have become what you most hated 3 years ago, and still do so; Madonna stans! I hope you don't whine about the b---hy attitude of Madonna and her fans again. Otherwise I'll be done with the hipocresy in this fanbase! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
djBuffoon 12,030 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 If the masses found about Katy using Katy Keene, nobody would care because it seems so obvious that it must be intentional. She could just say, "yep, the truth is I used to read these as a kid and I wanted to recreate my favorite character through my costumes! Retro-pinup comic book girl style is my favorite," and the world would move on. It's a cool concept when you look at it that way. You're probably right. And no one would question why she never once cited it as an inspiration for her costumes or aesthetic. Because the double-standard is real. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MANiCURE 60 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Kids and their parents like Katy Perry because she is safe and pretty therefore $$$ the end Exactly this. I don't even understand the hype over Katy. She's just some popstar doll, with some pop songs all the kiddies like. Nothing wrong with that but I'm not here for it. I don't even understand how the whole Katy vs Gaga thing came about last year, (yet I really do see why it is all going down now!!) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOriginalOne 9,926 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Exactly this. I don't even understand the hype over Katy. She's just some popstar doll, with some pop songs all the kiddies like. Nothing wrong with that but I'm not here for it. I don't even understand how the whole Katy vs Gaga thing came about last year, (yet I really do see why it is all going down now!!)As far as I know, it started because of the media pitting Roar against Applause, but I think there was already bad blood from the BTW era or something.

Thank you. I totally missed the boat on that one! At the time I was just like, how can you even compare, Gaga's in a way higher league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
