Is Gaga killing the hype for LG5?   Now, that she is acting in AHS, released a jazz album, went on tour for her jazz album, performed mostly covers this year- do you think it's killing the fanbase's hype for the new pop record? Did the silence during the pre-ARTPOP era help Applause peak at #4 and stay for weeks in the Top 10 in iTunes?   Look at 25 and 'Hello', Adele remained silent since 2011 till now and now the song is doing extremely well and the album is expected to do very well too!
