Annie 0 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 are you guys SERIOUSLY fighting about the design if a fking perfume bottle? this era has really changed us. ikrΒ F**k a lot of you people in this forum are annoying! I seriously can not get over it. I very rarely post on here... But I come here every day, multiple times, to catch up on everything that is happening in the world of Gaga! I come on to see such amazing news like she's releasing a new fragrance, and all I see are people complaining. Like seriously... WTF.Β Β 1. We should be rejoicing. Whether it's exactly what we want or not (in terms of a god damn perfume bottle shape) it's still another way of owning a piece of Gaga's legacy.Β 2. OF COURSE IT'S TO MAKE HER MONEY!!! How do you expect Gaga to keep doing what she does for us without any money. The sad truth today is that because we all steal from artists by not paying for music, (I personally refuse to download illegally, but I'd be happy to bet top dollar a lot of the people here complaining about this perfume do) they need to be resourceful and find other ways of making money for their brand. Lady Gaga is a company... A brand... With no money, no company can continue on. The fact that 'Fame' grossed $1.5 billion, and artRAVE may gross $150 million (as an estimate) should serve as enough evidence as to why she wouldn't even question releasing this fragrance to continue to fund her future endeavours.Β 3. If you are all so f**king great at managing and marketing a massive International brand like LADY GAGA, why do you sit there day in day out, with 1000s of post to your name on one fan forum, rather than using your skills and "knowledge" to manage/market a real brand. Oh wait... You can't because you're not qualified. Ahhhhhh I see! Because you really have no idea what actually goes on when making such high level business decisions, and you don't have the ability to see that hours upon hours (of people who actually know what they are doing) have been spent coming up with every move the brand LADY GAGA makes. Will they always make the right decisions? NO! Just like any other international brand! But they are sure as hell gonna gonna give it their best shot, using all research and knowledge they have to do so. Not just basing their decisions on what they THINK. Β And before one of you fires back with a "I'm a marketing major" or "I studied design for 10 years" reply... If this is the case. Get up off Gaga Daily... And prove to the world just how good you are in your field. If you are in fact good enough... Then maybe one day you will be driving the LADY GAGA ship. If you are one of those people that disagrees with the way Lady Gaga is run, and have no true experience... Let me just tell you how you seriously have no idea how much would go into every decision we see play out. There are so many more factors than your mind could even comprehend. Β So just sit back, stop complaining and enjoy the ride. Or get off... Because clearly you can't get over your disappointment in Gaga and you shouldn't have to. A word of advice... She wouldn't care!!! touchΓΖΒ© Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewYorkCity 10,536 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Everyone can stop fighting please :) don't force us to lock the thread because you can't discuss maturely You could stop the fights by taking actions against the people who are on every thread bashing Gaga's actions. On EVERY thread. And EVERY comment. I mean, any member could give you names and everyone would say the same names. Hiding behind "respect my opinion" "I don't have to like everything Gaga does" is not a good solution when you are doing the same for months on every post you make. And people get tired of it, that's when the fighting starts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pierre 10,480 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Gaga fans live in polarizationland. When it isn't amazing, iconic or flawless it's lame, boring and basic. :lmao: βIs not blue, not turquoise, not lapis. It's actually ceruleanβ.

Mich 397 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 She's going for simplicity now, in the same way Gabrielle Chanel wanted a simple design for her NΓβΒ°5 perfume, compared to other perfumers who used to make over-elaborate cristal bottles. In 1924, the bottle was described by the brand: "the perfection of the product forbids dressing it in the customary artifices. Why rely on the art of the glassmaker ...Mademoiselle is proud to present simple bottles adorned only by ...precious teardrops of perfume of incomparable quality, unique in composition, revealing the artistic personality of their creator." It makes little doubt to me that Gaga was inspired by the Chanel bottles design. It's the most timeless, elegant of designs. Doesn't seem that basic now, huh? Well, tbh I think it's still very basic, but hopefully the perfume speaks for itself and will explain why it didn't need such an elaborate design :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLoveLamar 379 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I am sorry for making you angry like this. It was never my intention to come off as arrogant and neither did I try to educate anyone. All I did was to point out the similarity in the bottles used, nothing more and nothing less. Sadly, no one here understood. I never wanted to tell you or anyone else that the bottle does not aim towards a high end look like Tom Ford. All I did was telling you my personal thoughts on the bottle, and to me personally it does not look even similar to Tom Fords Private Blend flacons. But as I said, it is only my personal perception. Β And please don't be mistaken, I am not backing out by saying 'I don't care', as I only said 'I don't care about why you keep on accusing me of lying', which I really don't. Please read my postings carefully before making such claims. You did accuse me of lying at least twice, but the moment I said you could also be lying, you freaked out. Not a nice trait. I really don't understand what your issue is and I am majorly puzzled by all of this. Again, I apologize for making you angry, I did not intend to do so, but I DO intend on stoping this public conversation right now, it's against the rules of the forum. If there is anything else you would like to discuss, send me a PM. I have to say that I'm with you 100%. I'm obsessed with Tom Ford but that bottle looks nothing like the Private Blends. It is 100% ide tical to Victoria's. Same neck, same top, same plate bearing the name, etc. The difference is Gagaz's bottle is dipped in black. Victoria's bottle is ALSO produced by COTY. Also, as you've already stated, nothing is new under the sun so I don't care. I'm just so ready to own it and see the commercial. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CjP 61 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I don't know how to quote. That's how new I am to posting But... " You could stop the fights by taking actions against the people who are on every thread bashing Gaga's actions. On EVERY thread. And EVERY comment.

And people get tired of it, that's when the fighting starts. " Couldn't agree more... I come on this forum to celebrate Gaga and everything she does. Whether it's the best or the worst... I agree or disagree... I have respect for this woman. I don't however come on here to her people's endless critisms of her actions (people might I add that really don't know anything at all).

craig 680 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Eau de Gaga is a follow-up to GagaΓΒ’Γ’β¬ÒβΒ’s debut scent FAME, released back in 2012. The perfume has sold more than 30 million bottles and earned more than 1.5 billion dollars worldwide to date.Fans can be so perverse. They pull their hair out because Gaga isn't selling enough bloody itunes at $1.29 (where she is competing with free), and demand she work herself to exhaustion doing promo.Then they complain when she actually sells a tangible product that makes money.
