VISION 52 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Edit: before posting a comment, read it. And the word "rant" does not mean bad. Sky posted it on her Facebook: _________________________________________________________________________________ As someone who has worked very closely with Terry Richardson on many many many occasions since I was 17 years old I would like to say... from my OWN personal experience: I have never been forced or manipulated into anything. I made a music video with him and I have never felt uncomfortable with Terry & had 99 percent of the creative control. This was before I was "famous". Allegations are one thing but completely blaming the director isn't fair aka the Lady Gaga video. It doesn't matter if you want to be a "role model" or not, it's your responsibility to be AWARE of what you're doing. When you're making & selling pop music for 14 year olds that is just a straight up fact. I'm not against/doubting people that have said they've encountered things with him (it's not my place to say so) but the media acting as if Terry Richardson manipulated Lady Gaga into making a video about getting touched by R-Kelly or whatever is a whole other thing. She is 28 year old woman & fully capable/aware of what she was doing. If she wants to do it is HER choice. Whether I agree with it or not. I'm REALLY insulted that my work is somehow getting dragged into this mess (this is the only place I can actually write about this). Terry has only been a supportive & caring friend to me for a long time. I actually find the whole thing upsetting & have for a while. To say I support s-xual abuse beyond hurts me. I've experienced it from a very early age until I was 16 years old & have been VERY vocal about it. I am a feminist & work with foundations globally w/ children & women that are victims of s-xual abuse. I fight for it every day. To discredit me because I'm friends of someone or my music videos/photos make you feel certain way is YOUR problem. Not mine. Your opinion of someone doesn't make them who they are. The media & the ****ing peanut gallery/trolls on the internet can paint any picture they want of you. They never have the full details. They can manipulate & project an image/persona that benefits them. There are lots of details that we DON'T know about it. There are many reasons & FACTS why I support Terry Richardson that media (basically) refuses to acknowledge. If it were up to the world I would be a racist/heroin addict manufactured robot. Which I'm far from either of those things. Before you judge people off of some article you read off a newspaper or some blog just remember: They are selling you something. The story is to benefit them somehow. It's only half truth. If that.Basically if one more person has the nerve to ask/tell me that I've ****ed Terry Richardson, I will slit their ****ing throat. I had a topless album cover. So ****ing what? I don't necessarily expect people to understand why I did it or like it. The fact that I still have to explain myself or be publicly shamed every time I speak to a journalist about it EIGHT months later is disturbing. Also, if I was using my "tits" to sell anything, my body is worth more than any cash on the entire planet. Not to mention most musicians don't MAKE ANY money off of ****ing sales. There's a lot more damage being done to the world than the female body. Get a grip. ________________________________________________________________________________ Sky and Gaga together: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she wants to do it is HER choice I completely agree with this part Gaga has the guts and the willpower and all that stuff required to put her foot down when she wants to, and I believe she does when she sees fit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HausOfGuy 10 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 claps claps claps for the good sis sky. i just hate it when ppl claim gagas audience is katy's or miley's or other pop artists... most of us in the fan base are above 14. i would even say most of us are between 16 and 25. And even if we were all 14 year olds, it wouldn't be gaga's job to educate us or anything. /rant Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gypsy Life 118,907 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I agree. Terry gets too much undeserved hate. I mean, yes, he's a creep, but he has never done anything wrong to any of the artists he worked with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
