Gaga talks about the future

Back in 2010, Gaga was interviewed by Rolling Stone. They ask her about the future, if the media was ever to 'turn on her' (as they appear to be doing now). Here are her responses:

 

Are you worried that you're going to hit a point where there's a backlash?
From where?

 

No one can predict it. But when you look at anyone who gets to a certain point in their career, all of a sudden something random happens, and everybody turns on them, and then of course at some point later, everybody loves them again.
I'm not worried about it. I believe in karma. I'm really good to the people around me. I don't know if you made any observations of our wonderful team, but I love everybody here. My assistant is one of my best friends. I'm not a diva, in any sense of the word.

 

But apart from that, the media likes to build people up so they can tear them down, then build them up again. Everybody goes through that.
I mean, they've tried everything. But they haven't done it. When they start saying that you have extra appendages, you have to assume that they're unable to destroy you. I've got scratch marks all over my arms, and they say I'm a heroin addict. It's from my costumes. When I pass out onstage, they say that I'm burning out, when I have my own (A) personal health issues and (B) it's ****ing hot up there and I'm busting my ass every night. I've heard that Audrey Hepburn used to faint on the set all the time, and nobody thought she was a burnout.

This was all during Gaga's Fame Monster days when she was at her peak. Do you think she predicted her future decline? Was she prepared for something like the ARTPOP era? I don't think she's at all phased by any of the negative press she's been getting during the ARTPOP era. Discuss.

 

Edit: Gaga also talks about her assistant (presumably Jennifer O'Neill) being her best friend. I never realized how close their relationship was :shocked:

Hopefully the mag is right when they said everyone ends up loving the famous person again. ;)

*She was prepared for nothing, this whole theory of Gaga knowing exactly what she's doing and predicting her own career is false and silly.

For those of you that have the app, you can use it and screenshot your score next to safari with GGD open by hitting the home button twice.

Is that allowed? The app is just so much better.

EDIT: Oh, hey wrong thread...:flop:

She is still not in Britney Spears decay level ( sorry fans but she is a mom and not a pop star anymore).

If her new album is successful she will be what everyone is talking about again.

It's like they predicted the BTW drama :deadbanana:

 

Seriously though, her responses show that she was not prepared for what they were talking about. She didn't answer the questions directly, either becuase she didn't understand them or becuase she didn't even want to think about that.

I definitely believe she planned her future era's all the way back before The Fame. Listen to Just Dance's "got my blueprint" in the bridge lyrics (her first single, and the song that launched her into a superstar). She also brought up the "Born This Way" title all the way in early 2010 (or was it late 2009)?

 

Did she predict her decline? Hard to say. Her decline started in January 2011 when Born This Way was released. The entire era was successful from the huge hype TF and TFM made however slowly unravelled throughout the era, but now that the hype is gone, there's not much to push ARTPOP.

 

Perhaps she didn't expect her future albums to go down so badly. Really not sure.

From her answers it appears that she used to think it wouldn't get this bad because she always tries to do good. "karma".

"I mean, they've tried everything. But they haven't done it. When they start saying that you have extra appendages, you have to assume that they're unable to destroy you."

They haven't destroyed her, true, but the media has had a major effect on her popularity and success. I don't think she realiised the lengths the media and haters could go to.

By the time you reach the end of this sentence, it'll be too late to realize I just wasted your time with a pointless sig.
