It's not like its a weird unexpected question.. Gaga's speaking breaks are far longer than her counterparts

Not at all. It's what helps to make her shows great experiences. I get the criticism though. It takes away from the musical component of what's meant to be a concert, but I know that, when I'm going to see Gaga, I'm getting something that's more personal and meaningful than a standard concert.

her talking parts are slayage

Lady Gaga is not a traditional Pop Artist. She brought theatre to her shows, and that is included with how each song has a talking point that leads into the next she has made (in essence) a musical

Her always shouting "hands up" or "now dance" or "jump" every 10 seconds is annoying though

I think she's one of those people who talk a lot in general, but it's always from the heart. I love people like that who make you feel like you belong.

When she told that obese woman in the background to stand up though. That was iconic.

Every chorus in EVERY song saying "sing it" ESPECIALLY with applause

She says JUMP at the same predictable stale places in her songs.

I loved when she did So Happy I Could Die and she said "now Bounce. Happy in the" that seemed soooo natural, but in EVERY song she begs for her audience to jump or sing, at the same points... it's cringey and predictable.

Also. All of herperformances of MANiCURE from iTunes Fest ALL THE WAY TO BERCY she does the same "oh yeaah"

[Ciccone Madonna 1,362]

A star isn t doing tours just to perform songs as a robot. Talking is important to connect with the crowd.

I love them

She connects with her audiences in a way few artists do. She talks to us like we're friends, and she has a right to be self-congratulatory, that woman worked her ass off for years to get where she is, so if she's proud of herself and her accomplishments, I'm okay with that. If anything, it's quite inspiring, it makes people think "If she can do it, so can I". And I think that's her message in a nutshell, you can achieve anything if you put your heart into it.
