WooIsMe 0 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 In general, the Super Bowl wants established acts doing safe things. (Tom Petty, U2, Springsteen, Stones) They are so established that it only serves as an announcement that they are starting a tour. Bruno Mars definitely got a boost when he did it. When Janet Jackson went off the script, it damaged her career. At the Oscars, Other than this Gaga performance, can you ever remember anyone who completely stopped the show? Maybe when Catherine Zeta Jones did her number from Chicago. Or when Robin Williams did Blame Canada. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Gaga 22,913 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Katy had more viewers in America. You can't compare 100 million people to nearly 1 billion Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJHolland 12,725 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Katy had more viewers in America. You can't compare 100 million people to nearly 1 billion You most certainly can when the majority of that billion thought it was boring and generally bad...

Jed 7,716 Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 You most certainly can when the majority of that billion thought it was boring and generally bad... But it keeps her name in their minds nonetheless. It all depends on their next singles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HausAlly 799 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 SuperBowl has a huge audience around the world, but having said that the oscars do too, it does boil down too the avenue the artist wants to travel down do they want to be commercial and profitable or are they more concerned with their artistry? i think both help artists in those particular avenues so you can't really compare the two, its like comparing a painting and a poster Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kayla 7,595 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Katy had more people watching and it didn't help her get more sales. MISSY ELLIOTT got enough sales from the Superbowl performance to make a noticeable difference, but for Katy it ended up being a meme-fest where people stanned for a 90s rapper and shark costume more than the main act.  Gaga's Oscars night started out meme-worthy with those gloves, and now all anyone can talk about is her breathtaking performance. People who didn't respect Gaga now do, those of us who've loved her are also blown away. Superbowl turned Katy into a joke for a lot of people who didn't already feel that way, tbh.  Oscars did more for Gaga than the Superbowl did for Katy.

Ladey Gagz 2,512 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Since you said "helped", 100% Gaga because her career was/is at a very delicate place whereas Katy's was more stable and there's not really much it could have done for Katy because people already liked her.This But we saw something new from Gaga and nobody expected it and everyone was blew away whereas Katy did Katy which is fine. Gaga just got more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
