So, two years later and the importance of ARTPOP has ben growing. She was right that this album will be considered and valued much more as it ages. I think she made a bold statement and the fact that she hasn't backed out and still believes in it, brought tears to my eyes. She is the definition of passion! This speech is so inspiring, I love her!!

         But all I always wanted, more than anything, was to be taken seriously as a musician in the Pop cultural field, as well as the fine arts at the same time. And tonight is the closest that I might ever come to that.
