SinAgain 33 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Watch the behind the scenes I posted, they refer to Lady Gaga as a character, even the lady herself. Mess Lmfao. Are you going to keep referring me back to that video? I am going to explain a very key concept to you in a very concise manner. A music video, especially Poker Face, is fictional. The "character" that appears in a fictional music video does not appear in real life. The Lady Gaga in that behind the scenes video, in contrast, does appear in real life. However, you are not arguing you miss the "character" Gaga portrayed in the Poker Face video. You are arguing that you miss the character that Gaga was portraying at all times during the early part of her career, even in that behind the scenes video, one that clearly does not exist in the video youuuuu embedded here. Mess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teal Ambition 47,805 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 She is not killing her fantasy, she is evolving. Exactly. I'd rather she be herself than a character she creates. ▌│█║▌║▌║ before I am Canadian, I am Chromatican ║▌║▌║█│▌ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinAgain 33 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 For god sakes how can you think Lady Gaga is not a character? Because it's simple. A character differs from the actor that is portraying them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mess. Are you serious? Even in the ARTPOP era she shifted characters for each single! Look at her during the Venus era for God's sake, if you can't see there she was clearly a character then I'm ending the discussion here because you can't seem to grasp what Lady Gaga is even about. How many times has she said her life is theatre and she's bringing her music to life? She literally just made an era on deconstructing her characters? The onstage wig removals, the costume changes? I previously questioned if you're even a fan because she's literally now changing her character infront of us, how can you not see that? I'm actually god smacked.

Maybe you need to be smacked harder lol. I agree, she changes looks, but she has not, as far as I know, and since you can't provide any evidence to prove otherwise, actually been a "character." She has always been herself, maybe she looks different, and even sings different kinds of music, but she has always been herself. So unless you have real proof that she has ever been a character with the title "Lady Gaga" on it, leave me be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronk 14,762 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 I'm the same way. I miss the old gaga and how she would always meet expectations but ever since ARTPOP she's been really boring lately for me. I haven't enjoyed a gaga performance since swine fest but that doesn't mean I'm going to stop being a fan. I will say that I'm not as big as a fan as I was 3-5 years ago. I don't even listen to her music anymore sadly but I hope her next album is at least good. Have you been to an artRAVE? I live outside the space time continuum.

Rome 176 Posted August 13, 2014 Author Share Posted August 13, 2014 And you are correct, why? Just like Benji says she has been changing who Lady Gaga is since the beginning, just look -The Fame: She was a cute silly blonde girl who just wanted to be famous -The Fame Monster: She played the character of this secret and dark person who totally controls whats happening in the music industry -Born This Way: Horns, blue hair, leather, spikes, she was a rebellious new yorker -ARTPOP: Now she is a art student She has been changing the character since the beginning she in not even the same person between singles eras, she even changes how she behaves not only with the press but with the media. Her career is pure theater, and I love it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Envi 765 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 well, fantasy is not always permanent like the FameGa you are stucked with. the best thing you can do is keep believing in her and someday she may give you different kind of fantasy. if you aren't satisfy, find another artist that fulfill your musical needs. it's your choice after all. ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 One of the things that I love since the beginning of her career was that I got blown away every time that I saw Lady Gaga. The first time that I heard Just Dance it was fantastic, not only because I liked the song but because of Gaga, who was she? why did she wear all this strange outfits. But I didn't become a fan of her until that day: Lady Gaga captivated me, I went crazy with this character that she made up. For me Lady Gaga is not real, she wasn't from this planet or human. She was on day in a tv show and the day after She was singing on another different country. She was magic and mysterious. Nobody knew what she did when there wasn't anybody looking, and she didn't want you to knew it. And now I feel that she doesn't like anymore this fantasy, that she is exhausted to be this super star. It started 2 years ago and now it feels more real than never that she is dropping the Lady Gaga persona. For me she can do whatever she wants, the only thing that I hope is that if she stop acting like Lady Gaga she also drops the name. For me if she kill Lady Gaga character but continuous to be called like that I would feel that she is not only betraying Lady Gaga but also everyone that love her mystery. I´m mean now she is acting more normal that any time before, she tell us what´s up with Taylor, she shares all this photos of Asia with us, we have photos of his home and more and more and I find it so different and strange, even more when you compare it with the past years, just look at this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VE4L7SI-SwA At this point I´m getting really emotional First of all it's not a persona, you can literally see pictures of her when she was little and she dressed up as well. Secondly, Gaga isn't changing, she's revealing herself. She's always liked jazz and classic rock. We've known this. Hell, we even wanted a jazz record from her since 2010. And that interview is honestly talking about people like you, not understanding her and where she is coming from. And that interview is also why she wrote Scheiße. Boom.
