Ronlop 6,882 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Did you use Gaga for escapism? Was she part of what helped you escape from your personal harsh reality and bad thoughts? If yes, What part in Gaga helped you escape? Do you still feel the same way now? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronlop 6,882 Posted July 2, 2016 Author Share Posted July 2, 2016 For me and I think for many of you, my love for Gaga started during a time when I felt I don't belong at all so seeing a freak like her be so successful and praised was something that inspired me,I guess. It was not until I became older that I realized that the weirdo in her is really more in her personality and not the crazy outfits and strange looks. Do I still use her to escape from reality? I guess I do in a certain way but I definitely don't see her as necessary for my daily life as she was in the past which is maybe just because I grew up.

LaLuna 12,732 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 All the music I listen to is for escapism. One of my favorite things to do when I listen to certains songs is pretend I'm performing in front of a huge audience. I've been doing that since I was a kid Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rivington Rebel 359 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Tbh my 'obsession' is due to being lonely and having barely any friends. I put all my time into Gags as escapism from the loneliness as her music preaches friendship and happiness. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PunkTheFunk 124,406 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 I live vicariously through Gaga to escape my boring life, so when she flops, I flop even harder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head Empty 25,076 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Definitely. I used it to counteract my loneliness when I was in high school in 2009. She was the artsy friend that I always wanted to have, and there was a nearly endless supply of content to watch back then. It became quite unhealthy over the past couple of years, but I'm really glad to say that it came to a somewhat natural stop now during the wait for LG5. Escapism is great in small amounts, but for me it really became time to let go and focus on myself a bit more Happiness will never last, darkness comes to kick your ass... ᵃˢˢ 🕺 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GloZell Green 11,723 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Kind of. When I listen to her music and watch videos I feel relaxed. I can't say that I'm lonely, but her music is definitely an experience. Lady Gaga | Shakira Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryanripley 86,575 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 when i listen to her music, i enter this whole new universe of art in which i can express and perform and i miss that "gaga" we used to have because i've always been the one on the outside of the circle of friends, i'm always the one that makes an appearance and has never had a true circle of people like me that always hang out, go to parties and do stuff with... she made it ok to be the outsider... https://goo.gl/xMgMvJ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReidOne 12,427 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 All pop music, and all pop culture for that matter, is my escapism. Gaga is just at the top of the heap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
