13VictorC 1,102 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 I think it only shows that Gaga doesn't leave people indifferent. Everybody keeps saying she's over, and yet, everbody's still talking about her. On the other hand, Katy isn't someone that pushes people to look into themselves. Gaga is disturbing to some people because she triggers a reflexion - that's why people either love her or hate her. You'll never find anyone who's indifferent about Gaga. Katy can smash or flop, in the end, it doesn't really matter to people, because they don't really care. You hit the nail right on the head! Gaga's work is provocative in the most existential way.

Ladey Gagz 2,512 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Bull****. There's tons of artists who had 2 hits at the same time. Dark Horse is out of the top 40 on iTunes right now, what's the excuse for Birthday flopping w/ massive radio support? yeah. nothing. People just don't like it. Not overshadowed or anything. Same goes to Uncle. woah calm the **** down you need to chill sis Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slayer 9,227 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Katy is really inconsequential. She's just a popstar. People talk about the "end" of Gaga because she's an icon. Commercial success or not, she's a ubiquitous figure in pop culture. Everyone knows who she is, and everyone has an opinion on her. There's no "take it or leave it" with Gaga. She's polarizing. She's more than just her music. Eyes are always on her. Nobody cares if Katy has a flop single. A failure for Gaga, however, is a story. This. This is the reason why. I love judas SO MUCH but I canʹt look like a copycat of JLO!!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haldy 1,258 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Katy is very "vanilla," whereas Gaga is more unusual and therefore easier to criticize. Katy is really inconsequential. She's just a popstar. People talk about the "end" of Gaga because she's an icon. Commercial success or not, she's a ubiquitous figure in pop culture. Everyone knows who she is, and everyone has an opinion on her. There's no "take it or leave it" with Gaga. She's polarizing. She's more than just her music. Eyes are always on her. Nobody cares if Katy has a flop single. A failure for Gaga, however, is a story. This entirely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Computer 10,973 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 I think it is because Gaga is not the average/normal popstar Exactly. And Katy was never as big of a pop culture phenomenon as Gaga so her ups, downs, and same-sames are less interesting to the media. 💚💛💕❣⭕💢💢 | ⓜⓔⓡⓡⓨ ©ⓗⓡⓘⓢⓣⓜⓐⓢ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koala 3 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Exactly. And Katy was never as big of a pop culture phenomenon as Gaga so her ups, downs, and same-sames are less interesting to the media. I totally agree! And Gaga had a really big impact on pop culture so the possibility of her decay is something really discussed by people and the media Because Gaga dared to be different than your average manufactured pop star and although society keeps on preaching to be "unique" and be "yourself" they also criticize and frown upon you for being different thus bringing us back to the fact that there is a double standard within the media ... Gaga has balls and people/media/society, feel threatened by that ... THIS Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thefamefatale 264 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Because of Teenage ****ery Dream that had like 58 #1's and everybody thinks Katy Perry is untouchable because of it. And don't ever compare Born This Way and Prism please. Born This Way is 500 levels higher than Prism ever will be. don't be a drag Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladey Gagz 2,512 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Do U C me pulling my hair? I just responded to a post. Kind of Bull****. There's tons of artists who had 2 hits at the same time. Dark Horse is out of the top 40 on iTunes right now, what's the excuse for Birthday flopping w/ massive radio support? yeah. nothing. People just don't like it. Not overshadowed or anything. Same goes to Uncle. The way you wrote it make you seem really pressed. You wrote it as if you were a katy hater and that loses all your credibilty. Not saying you were wrong just saying it seems that way. However, Roar was still smashing when Uncle was released tho. And when Birthday was released, DH was too. Not now tho, seeing Birthday has been released a fair amount of time ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
