chromaticainmyhead 6,348 Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 I don't know if you've already seen this but it made me kinda sad for a moment, when I first read it. Bowie's managment posted a statement about Lorde's Tribute at the Brits stating that she "elivered a stylish and beautifully fragile but assured performance, prompting a standing ovation from the capacity crowd and gathered celebrities." It's not that I disliked her performance in any way, but I feel a bit irritated to not lose any comment about Gaga's Tribute. Especially the comment section is full of negativity towards Gaga's performance and how much better Lorde's was. Even tho it was very different from Lorde's appearance it was really well done and I literally felt every emotion Gaga transferred with her singing, dancing and visuals. At least they could have acknowledged her effort but to do so as it never happened is really disappointing. Just my opinion tho What do you think about it?https://www.facebook.com/davidbowie/posts/10153256794062665 fan-tas-tique, chic, freak, slaaaay Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernster7 7,845 Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 I think they are stupid and immature. It was not a fcking competition, both of them did great and I'm sure David would've appreciated it. It's unnecessary drama. We have two selves. One the world needs us to be, compliant, and the shadow. Ignore it and life is forever suffering. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LePetitGAGABLover 21,234 Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 TBH, at this point, not one cares. Bowie's death will be forgotten in the next couple of years anyways. There, I said it. In fact, if it wasn't for Gaga, I would of not had ANY clue of who this man is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicole 1,809 Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 I suppose it's a bit immature that they are acknowledging one performance over another, but honestly it's not worth fussing over. Both performances took a different approach to tributing Bowie and hence both should be appreciated individually. There are people that loved Gaga's and there are people that disliked Gaga's just as there would be in regards to Lorde. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You clearly have no musical knowledge outside of the pop sphere.... Bowie was already a legend even before his death.. His Death only cemented him as one of the greatest, even if he already held that title. Destiny is for losers. It’s just a stupid excuse to wait for things to happen instead of making them happen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gagaisitalian 3,573 Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 So, it's 100% confirmed, David Bowie didn't like Gaga. Gaga's performance was alright, but I think it would have been smart for her to have never honored a man who didn't like her because no matter how well she did, she would still get backlash from his camps.

I said that after a few years, people will forget his death and this whole Gaga vs Lorde mess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
artRaver 3,188 Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 So immature to be honest. I would be disheartened if I did a tribute for someone who inspired me in so many aspects and shaped my career just for their official camp to say nothing about it, but credit someone else who did the same thing a few weeks. Oh well, at the end of the day all she can do is worry about herself. F*ck them, you can't please everyone. Her fanbase and herself know her intentions were good so that's all that matters. ✿ cherry blossom girl ✿ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobody3089 250 Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 I'm glad this happened because we all know Bowie didn't like Gaga at all. And I'm sure gaga knew, too he didn't like her. i feel like out of respect for him she should have declined the offer to do a tribute for him at the grammys. to me this just made her look really desperate. If he didn't like u, stop pushing it and move on. It's not like he's all that. He's dead anyways. It's not going to change how he felt about u. Not only did Bowie's management ignore her, even his wife ignored her and she's always posting about Bowie on Instagram. She even posted about lorde. its really sad cause there were some fans that still had hope that Bowie did like her but now we all know the sad truth Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
braybray23 248 Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 It's silly to compare the performances. Gaga was theatrical and channeled her idol and people are rude to her. I love life on Mars and she's okay but her performance was nothing special imo not an okra Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Bromance 5,809 Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 We shouldn't focus on the negativity. The American press and a lot of A-listers praised Gaga's Bowie tribute to the heavens so if the UK press and Bowie's management team feel that Gaga didn't do a good job, let them think whatever the f*ck they want. I happened to like Gaga's performance more than Lorde's boring tribute so at the end of the day, that's all that matters to me. I don't care what you think about unless it is about me.
