Haroon 49,685 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I think she's just talking about things in general and not pin-pointing a certain artist Or at least I can't think of someone she may be speaking of All of the pop girls I can think of can either write very well or sing very well or both I don't think someone's looks should be the foundation of their career in music, like I believe that something should back it up :yes: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemo 4,291 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Do you remember that girl from "The Fame" who would never act conceited about her talents or preach about art and being artsy?No I don't, and neither do you, since she never existed. Gaga's been doing those things since day one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeoFameMonster 1,592 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I agree. I was going to say that she was hinting at shading Katy but she writes some of her songs. Co-writes lol??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychedelic 1,098 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I couldn't care less about the feelings of fans who follow these half-assed singers/artists and neither does Gaga. I think there are artists for each different type of public, and that should be respected. So if a good portion of this fanbase is unwilling to to do that, or even worse, they believe Gaga herself should not give respect for other type of tastes, that's what is causing this ship to sink harder each time!!!

BornSimon 4,818 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Let's see... I agree with her, it IS true that an "artist" who can't write nor sing isn't really an artist but merely an entertaining puppet whose strings are pulled by other people in higher places. Having said that, I wish she hadn't only mentioned the girls, because there's many guys as well who can't sing and can't write a song yet they're superstars. I want women to stand up for women, not drag them down and separate them from men. But maybe she feels compared to women and that's why she only mentioned the girls.

Maybe it's just me but I don't take artists serious that can't sing or write their own songs. I'm not a huge fan of Taylor Swift but at least she writes her own songs. She earns my respect. I'll listen to your song but I won't buy your music. Why should I spend my money to have you make millions if you are a "singer" but can't sing or an artist, who can't write songs. That's your job, it's what you are suppose to do not let everyone else do the all the work for you. It's like being a doctor and you are making money but someone else is doing all the work. I'm not saying it's right to be disrespectful or pretentious but that's probably how Gaga feels. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Some of you... I agree that it is unfair to real artists out there, but at the same time I don't mind manufactured pop music. I enjoy it, just like I enjoy music with real effort. However, I'm sure I would be mad as f when I'd be Gaga or anyone else in the industry who gets overshadowed by people who sell their music by their beautiful faces/bodies/endless auto tune. :shrug: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
destructivelove 563 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Well most of the "artists" should be called only 'singers' (even if they can sing live), the word artist goes for the People who write, produce, direct, control....etc. you know, create somthing out of nothing, that's Art. what exactly is "art" to you then? Wouldn't they technically be performance artists regardless as pop stars take on a character that most times isn't necesarily them? Aren't acting, singing, and performing all art forms? Who are you or anyone else for that matter to say what "art" can or cannot be? I agree that most of the art itself is trash and polarizing...but just because you dislike something or don't agree with it, doesn't make it not art.
