If you meet Gaga during LG5 era will you still ask for a photo?

[elijahfan 26,266]

Ever since I've had my photo with her in 2013, I've never tried to get another one. I don't really feel the need to document every single time I've bumped into her - there are always paparazzis around anyway, so if you get close to her, chances are that you'll end up on paps photos.

And I'd like to add that when I got my photo with her, I asked for her permission beforehand. And I think that does a major difference.

There's going to be no time to talk when there's tons of people behind you acting crazy scaring her off.

i will say however it IS beneficial to remain calm and silent. First time I met her on my own I was in shock and while everyone else was losing their **** with their cameras and screaming, I just stood there. Blessing in disguise, I guess she saw I was collected (I was screaming on the inside) and came over to me first, I asked her how she was (it was after she passed out in 2010)  and I was the only one who got a personalized autograph. 

It pays to be cool

I don't know but I think I will cry when I finally meet her.

It's not as if she's never going to want to take photos with fans ever again. 

If she's doing a meet and greet or coming out of a hotel, and comes over to get pictures taken and talk, then why not engage? If she doesn't come over, or the general vibe is that she's not up for pictures, that's also her choice. We need to respect that and respect her decisions and personal space. She's human just like us and has real feelings. 

Personally if I ever got the opportunity to meet her, if she had time I'd talk away with her honestly and keep the conversation intelligent and meaningful, which wouldn't be difficult considering she's a wise and down to earth person. On a good day she'd have so many cool things to say. Gaga also said in the Actors on Actors interview that she loves people. She does, and she loves her fans. You don't need to worry about that. 

Some people really need to chill and wait patiently. I know it would be thrilling to meet her, but you can express your excitement in a respectable way.

That must have been magical to experience. Instead of you approaching her, to have her come to you by her initiative.

If she asks politely I might consider letting her take a picture with me

[RAMROD 109,592]

If she make available tickets for meet and greet on her next tour, I would.

Besides, I think her words are taken differently that it is actually intended, she didn't said she don't want to meet fans anymore, or talk with them, she just finds taking selfies is less personal than having a discussion with her. She value us more than that. That is what I understand from her recent interviews regarding the subject anyway.

I understand her point of view because there are certainly a lot of people who ask to take a picture "just to take a picture" then leave, but honestly I don't think taking a photo with her will kill the moment if you are an interested fan. Unfortunately, If you have the chance to meet her, it will probably be a quick moment so I think it's a normal reaction for a fan to ask a photo with her. But of course It would be incredible to have a real conversation.

I think this is what she's really sick of tbh. She's spoken before saying "I'm worth more than just my image" and other things on this topic. If I met her my top priority would be to tell her how much she and her work means to me. LAST priority would be having a trophy picture to post on social media for bragging rights. It'd be nice to have as a memory, but bragging rights is not what I'm after!

 

particularly annoying are those that have counts on social media like... "met Gaga 10 times."  No, you didn't meet Gaga 10 times.  You stalked her 10 times and stole a moment.  That's not really something worth bragging about and certainly doesn't give you some sort of superiority.

If I ever meet Gaga I hope it's because our paths crossed in some sort of creative and meaningful capacity, not just because I waited 12 hours in a line with hopes of getting a selfie.

I would definetly just want to have a great, connecting moment where I wasan't necessarly a Little Monster fan, but an artist wanting to connect with the artist I look up to most 

 

Then while she was at dinner that night I'd pull one of these

Honestly tho, it IS Gaga. Hiw the heck are we gonna have meaningful convos with her when most of the time she lets her fans see her is during public outings, when she is being followed by PAPARAZZIs. How am I supposed to have a deep convo with her during the two minutes she gives us while fans in the background are yelling YAS MAMA! YOU LOOK SO GOOD MAMA?  I mean, if I get to meet her in an alley then I rather have a conversation with her, but I dont see how taking a pic at the end would be a problem. Ive done it with a singer named LIGHTS and we had a long convo and afterwards, she was happy to let me take a pic of her and I. Just cuz youre a huge celeb should not change that.

And your last question: Whether it is Gaga or any other singer, I usually take pics/videos during the first ten mins of the concert and then I enjoy the show. Usually other people put videos of the show anyway. 

I agree with every part of this, especially about recording a concert. I feel like it ruins the entire experience if you stare at it through your phone the whole time. 

And I'm so jealous you met LIGHTS!!!

I'd probably go for both the 'moment'/convo and the photo. I don't really agree with her sentiment of taking a selfie "killing the moment". She's taken selfies and photos with many stars and posted them on her account, did her 'moments' with them die too?

If all people want is a photo then that's probably frustrating as she's not just there to stare into cameras all day, but of course people will want to capture that memory.

I suppose it depends on the circumstances of the meeting, but yeah I'd definitely try.

Well to be fair, when she was with other stars she probably spent longer time with them

 

on a meet and greet ur lucky to get 45 seconds

I know, it was just a little example. My point of view as a whole remains.

[crisTEAne 21,059]

yes, i will. don't be insecure if your heart (and intention) is pure.  

[MaryJaneHolland 77,348]

i agree with everything she said about taking pictures... yes, you take the picture and that moment is dead.. but you'll always have that moment (as a picture in this case)
