Elizabeth 450 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 I'm going to presume that she didn't say it exactly how the person who met her wrote it in their thread. She might not've been as direct about it as it seems. I do kinda understand what you mean though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levine 18,438 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Didn't she say they totally ****ed up the BTW singles? She even said her plane was BTW -> MTN -> Scheisse and TEOG last single. So, it's not the first time I really think the label offended her by blocking Aura from being the lead single, that's why the era was messy. Her attitude was like "whatever, release the **** that you want". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
popper 3 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 I think the reason she leaked Aura was because they weren't allowing it to be a lead single, I think that's pretty bad ass. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Child 18,994 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 I prefer this honest Gaga to the one that was feeding us lies about everything being great. She obviously wasn't happy with this era from the start and all true fans could feel it. She didn't want "Applause" as first single. She didn't want the VMA's performance to look the way it did. She didn't want DWUW as second single. She didn't want the Applause or DWUW videos to look the way they did. It was all a big giant mess. Although her label is partly to blame, she herself failed as an artist. Her artistic vision got blurred in the fight between commerciality and artistic expression. Next time, she needs to strongly stand up for her art and be honest with the fans from the get-go. I didn't know about the VMA's performance, do you have receipts ? ‘If religion be the cause of disunity, then irreligion is surely to be preferred.’ ‘Abdu’l-Bahá Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleBoot 27 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 What is the context here? Is it just her talking to a group of fans informally in a meet and greet? I would think her delivery would be more informal if it wasn't a presser or high profile interview. I don't think it's anything that should be alarming. Wanting to hear what fans like and admitting mistakes isn't such a bad thing. I think people idolize her too much if they don't think she can be informal and human.

Pop 4,541 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 I didn't know for the Applause video. Where did she said that ? When talking about the DWUW video: "It is late because, just like with the 'Applause' video unfortunately, I was given a week to plan and execute it. It is very devastating for someone like me, I devote every moment of my life to creating fantasies for you. All my most successful videos were planned over a period of time when I was rested and my creativity was honored." I didn't know about the VMA's performance, do you have receipts ?

Rollercoaster 2 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 She's got too much control. Back in the fame/TFM days, she didn't really control anything. She had an input. These days, she's trying to co-manage herself, and it's just not working. IMO, she needs to let everyone do their jobs, and employ the best possible people to do those jobs. Sure, don't do random stuff, don't give up your integrity as a creative mind or performer, but jesus christ... you don't need to do everything. Employ people to do them. She has new management now, and hopefully they'll be putting together a formidable team for her to make her return to the top of the world with her next pop album. It's so obvious that the wrong singles were chosen and EVEN THE FANS pointed out time and time again that promo singles are a BAD idea. You want promo singles? Release them as actual singles then. Delay the album until single 3 or something. She was mad for a number of reasons - management scrapped her album, made her choose the singles she didn't want - She obviously wanted aura. She even dressed in a burqa for a month. It should've been: Aura Venus Gypsy G.U.Y It's so obvious when you listen to the album. She has every right to be all over the place right now, but in some ways, she brought it upon herself. Or... Gypsy Aura G.U.Y Applause Just so it spells Gaga lmao Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shane_c 480 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Is there a post about this somewhere where she talked to fans? I haven't seen it. I don't think she's as confident now because ARTPOP didn't do as well. That seems to me like it would be the obvious reason. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAMROD 96,651 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Well, people's change. Gaga that we once knew was only 22 and trying to establish her Pop career. Fast forward 6 years later, the same woman is now 28 years old, a global pop star, and had went through A LOT. All the things happened in her lufe in that 6 years is not ordinary, son. It will change your perspective completely. So let's give her a break. (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ✧*:・゚ be delulu until it becomes trululu (*´艸`*) ♡♡♡ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
