A filler is a song that literally just "fills the spot" its a song that doesnt match the album but was placed there just to have more songs. the song can be good but it doesnt full fill the album thematic. For instance, in  Born This Way, the whole theme of the album is "love yourself" yet songs like "Judas" dont exactly preach "love yourself". are they bad songs= NO they are flawless. do they go with the album theme, no so much. Thats what I think a filler is. fillers can be perfect, but will harm the sense of the project 

Not really.Because most albums don't really have a concept like Born This Way.For example BritneyJean doesn't really have a message but it's clearly full of fillers..Fillers are songs that don't really need to exist-boring uninspired songs.. Born this way for example would be the most boring album ever if all songs were about loving yourself :p

I thought that every sense the album came out besides the singles... the album has always pretty much bored me and most of the videos except Paparazzi the only video I really like and can remember on a regular basis from that era.

The Fame doesn't even have 1 filler :emma: (I even liked Brown Eyes for a while)

It does but it has very little especially compared to most pop albums. Glancing through the responses in here a lot of people don't know what filler is. Most pop albums are compilations that are loaded with filler by their very nature. Gaga's generally been much better at maintaining a cohesive thought and critical expression than her peers; The Fame has 2 fillers, The Fame Monster has none, Born This Way has 4 (not counting the bonus tracks), and ARTPOP is packed with filler.

Filler is a really concrete idea, it's just songs that don't follow and support the theme of the album and are musically and/or sequentially out of place. If an album isn't cohesive and doesn't surround a concrete thematic or narrative expression then it's more of a compilation and those are packed with filler by nature, which is what many pop albums fall into.
