Oscar 1,031 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 The Monster Ball is Gaga's best tour (imo) and is so far her most remembered one, it's iconic within the fan base but not outside of it. Other iconic tours besides the Blond Ambition tour are also Madonna's Confessions and Sticky & Sweet Tours, Britney Spears' Dream within a Dream tour and Onyx Hotel Tour. that didn't answer my question lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didymus 34,379 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Why what exactly has become more a part of Pop cultural legacy on Blond Ambition Tour? Th cone bra is definitely Madonna's most iconic outfit but it Gaga has many iconic outfits for herself in TMB. I don't think the cone bra makes that tour iconic tbh I'm talking about the reception of the tour at its time. It featured immensely controversial elements that were really the first time they occurred in pop culture (and have been re-used by an endless stream of artists, including Gaga): the use of religious iconography and s-xual provocation. It is literally mentioned as "iconic" by journalists and magazines and even the idea of the fashion element as a source of provocation was entirely unique in pop performance. The show mixed pop music with theatre and performance art for the first time on such a scale. That is the groundwork for Gaga's career as a whole. All of that has been so influential that it's just a cornerstone in the evolution of pop performance. Which is why it deserves to be called iconic. It changed the game and people who know pop culture know that it's iconic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHANTEL 2 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 I don't think the sticky and sweet tour is iconic tbh same with britney, I've never heard anyone saying they are But the confessions tour can actually be consider iconic, that's why I said the monster ball could 2nd or 3rd this doesn't mean they aren't iconic, they have pushed the importance of tours, just like Madonna's tours did, if the monster ball tour is iconic, those two Britney tours are def more iconic then it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunny 12,736 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Well, of course, looking back on it now it's nothing special. Because literally every pop artist used its formula What is the formula ? I like dancin', and ponies.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pure Adrenaline 1,518 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Everything Gaga did from 2009 to Feb. 2011 was iconic ;) It's much more fun to have hizophrenia... u never get lonely Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 The Madonna tour isn't the most iconic lol. TMB >>> Madonna. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugarfall 3,723 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 The Madonna tour isn't the most iconic lol. TMB >>> Madonna. your personal opinion the tours doesnt make Madonna's tour any less iconic That photo is propably more iconic than anything Gaga has done so far Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jxckk 959 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 memorable yes but iconic, no. the tour stage design and visuals weren't really anything different from any other pop star (excluding outfits and angler fish) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropico 4,145 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 We all know the most iconic female tour of all time is the Blonde Ambition by Madonna, NO ONE can deny that I had never heard of it till you mentioned it now and I'm not trying to be mean. So I CAN deny that. Most things we all label "iconic" aren't really known outside of pop stanbases and most people under 14 will have never heard of Madonna tour s and a lot of grown men and woman don't know any tours by any modern pop stars. So, I suppose certain tours are iconic to certain demographics. WW iconic? I can't think of one tour. Perhaps some MJ tour. your personal opinion the tours doesnt make Madonna's tour any less iconic That photo is propably more iconic than anything Gaga has done so far Doubt it. I don't agree with what the other guy said but I doubt that phot is iconic to any normal person who doesn't understand what a "stan" is.

I can't at people put Madonna on pedestal. She is amazing, right but not everything she done is iconic. This tour was good but nothing could beat TMB. (IMO Born This Way Ball and artRAVE are better but TMB is the most iconic). Gaga was THE biggest pop star ever back in 2010, so yes, TMB is the most iconic tour ever.
