Didymus 33,979 Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 1 minute ago, Enigma said: It doesn't matter why she got the headlines for. She still has had bigger and in general more headlines than Gaga. This helped Gaga fame worldwide. Well of course Gaga's literally trying to draw them in by acting and dressing like a ****ing nutjob. It's a lot easier to get headlines when you're having people vomit on you. That's great and all, but you're forgetting the fact that those headlines aren't being seen by everyone. Only the meat dress was her last real worldwide iconic moment that sunk into public memory, but after that.. not so much. If you made this thread in 2010 or 2011 a lot more people would've said Gaga but we're in 2016 rn and Gaga is no longer the most famous person around. Not the most followed person on social media, not the highest sales, what more do you need. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if that's all that matters, then Madonna wins easily anyway. The reason why is possible for Gaga do be more known then Adele is because Gaga created headlines for more things than just music. She was literary everywhere. She tapped onto channels, websites, and places that normal music artists usually don't. Adele has huge sales and also a lot of support from the media. But other than the people that buy her music, she is not known much by the rest of the population. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adele's Carpool Karaoke video got more views than G.U.Y. Stop. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if those people that used to talk about Gaga don't talk about her anymore, if you mention her name they will still know who she is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adele's Carpool Karaoke video got more views than G.U.Y. Stop. Because she is POPULAR at the moment. Just look at the type of headlines Gaga created throughout her career and the ones that Adele did. Gaga just had more coverage and a wider range of people that could be aware of her. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe those two are the only people more famous than Gaga. Specially MJ. However in the case of Madonna, many young people and even some old people don't know who she is. In the case of Gaga, I feel like there are more old people that know her than there are young people that know Madonna. However I do agree that this is very arguable.

flopheart 1,865 Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 she's one of the most famous, even if you ask to some "adults" about gaga they know what are you talking about, it's not the same about miley or katy or taylor, kim k, kanye etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But her popularity only seems to happen with a certain ground of people and in a specific group of countries. Unlike the wider range of coverage that Gaga had worldwide.

VOLANTIS 16,223 Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Is Lady Gaga Famous? Yes. Is Lady Gaga the most famous artists? No. I don't think she'd make the 'Top ten most famous artists of all time' list either and that's not necessarily a bad thing or something we have to worry about. I'd rather have her be successful than famous. For example, after 2013 VMAs Miley Cyrus was probably the most famous artist for months to come. With every nude selfie, Kim Kardashian becomes the most famous. Fame hits you in waves. And I want to celebrate Gaga and her acclaimed accolades. That's what I'd rather be proud of than how much she's talked about. I'll lift you 3 inches off the ground and drag you to a meter and a half Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
