NewYorkCity 10,536 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I don't think everyone has to support EVERYTHING she does... I have loved almost everything she has done so far, or at least I can appreciate it if I don't LOVE it.What I don't get is the point of being here posting and complaining about everything when you haven't liked a thing she has done since middle 2011. What's the point? One thing is not to like some of the stuff she does, and you can be vocal about it. But when I read some people here who are always complaining and everything looks bad for them... why would you waste your time? Go stan for another person who meets your expectations.

BlondeQueenOfGGD 25,454 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 The ones that bought 2.5 million albums to put Gaga's last solo album in the top 10 albums of the year, and the ones who spent money and time to go to Gaga's solo tour, that also ended up being in the top 10 of the year. lol I know I was joking ;) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayla 7,595 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I think this fanbase's biggest problem is we keep comparing Gaga's present and future to her past. Back when she was starting out she was just new and exciting and we were happy for her simply because she was on the up-and-up. But now a number of us have our favorite moments, eras, looks, etc. and have a hard time adjusting when she operates outside of what we know we already love. It's really unfortunate, but it happens a lot to artists. I think it can be related to the whole 2cd Place phenomenon- studies have shown that people who get 3rd place in competitions are actually happier and more proud than people who get 2cd. They think it comes from the idea that if you're in 3rd you're just happy you made it to the top, whereas if you're in 2cd you think of all the things you could have done differently to be 1st. We've been proud of Gaga when she was coming in at 3rd, then we really got hooked when she was #1. Now that she's sitting there are #2, we keep thinking of the things that made us appreciate her when she was in the other two positions. It's not fair to Gaga, honestly. We should be proud of her- she's done so many things, traveled the world, touched so many people. She could 100% stop now and she will have accomplished more than many could even dream of.

JesseBabe 837 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I don't think it makes me look like a bad fan because I want her to have the same success with her newer stuff like she did with Poker Face and Bad Romance. Those are some of my favorite songs ever. I think not only do I want this for her, I'm sure she does too. I'm also sure it wasn't a coincidence that she started working with RedOne, the producer that made those hits. I don't have to like everything Gaga does. Like, I wasn't too crazy about the C2C album, but I appreciated it for what it is and how happy she was during that era, but I don't like Jazz music even though I tried on numerous occasions to get into it. That's just me. I love pop Gaga, that's what made me fall in love with her as a person and an artist. Like some previously have said, if she fails to make an album that is a success, it means less money overall for other things, like tours. I'm not someone who's worried about the charts, but I think we'd all be lying if we said we didn't want her next album to be a success. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mic 1,415 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 While I agree that there a lot of complainers, I'm not one of them. I firmly believe Gaga's best works are ARTPOP and Born This Way and a hundred twinks obssesed with Paparazzi can't tell me nothing.I think twinks are the ones mainly obsessed with BTW no shade for them ofc!

Sister 9,907 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I think our fanbase is pretty awesome, right now. We have had our ups and downs, but it isn't nearly as bad as some other times. We are just sitting here in suspense and dreaming up what Gaga might do and throwing ideas around and we aren't going to all agree with what we would like for Gaga to do next, but we are handling things pretty well.I always want Gaga to just do what she feels is her next step and I am on her side about that, even if it is not something that turns out to be one of my favorite things. The future's uncertain and the end is always near. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hewkah 48 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 As much as I adore and love Gaga, I have never ever enjoyed any aspect of the C2C era. Well, apart from her friendship with Tony and her success in general. I'm not a jazz fan, I cannot and will never get into that sort of music. So my love for Gaga and this era has never really came to fruition; I feel as though time has stopped and it'll resume when Gaga releases another pop album. Saying that, I still check the website now and again for possible demo leaks, or audio remixes, and to talk. However, Gaga's love for jazz doesn't speak to me at all - I don't like the genre, no matter how hard I've tried to like it. I feel the same way about rap music and heavy metal.
