G.U.Y. is the video where she looks more sexy imo, even more than PI.

i still dont like it, i think its because of the song, i never liked it, i always hated that song and Dope, so i cant watch the video without cringe

Simple =/= basic. At least not in the negative way that you're inferring.

She also had simple videos like Just Dance and The Edge of Glory in the midst of those more extravagant videos that you mentioned. TEOG is particularly uneventful, then the next video was Y&I which you listed in your OP. So it's kind of a redundant argument to say that she's "basic" now based on one video.

this, thanks.

 

And saying that PI video is basic is just.... a mess. That video may be simple, but not basic. It has a meaning, it has amazing shoots, it has attitude, it makes you feel the song. So yeah, bye. And as Harry said, a simple video does not mean that the rest of her carreer is going to be like that. She had TEOG which could be considered more basic than PI because that video has actually nothing deep to tell. But still, she gave us later MTN, Applause and G.U.Y.

Basically...TEOG:derpga: was one of her worst single choices. And videos. Second only to PI. :toofunny: Anyway...:gaycat:bye

Am I the only one who seemingly appreciates the PI mv for what it is?

The cinematography, the colour palette, the fast pacing, it's still very flashy and in your face, albeit without the fancy get-ups and choreo.

And can we please stop comparing artists? Beyoncé may be overrated (in my opinion), but that does not mean she's a terrible artist. They're all doing the best they can and what they want to do with their careers.

The problem isn't the video itself, it is the execution. All those jumpy shots and the shaking camera just ruins it.

I mean the first time I've seen the video my eyes hurt for like 20 minutes, and the second time as well

Please correct me if I make any grammar mistakes, I want to master English as much as possible.

Lol NO, Perfect Illusion doesn't deserve a nomination for Video of the Year but this is the way she can express the feeling of the song. Her music videos are always a representation of the song. She doesn't do it so that people like you can not call her basic, she does it so that the music goes with the visual. This is how she reflects the anger/ passion/ rage in Perfect Illusion, let her. TEOG was basic but it suited the song so much!!! 

Why didn't you call her basic then? 

 

Also

Spoiler

Music not the bling :lana:

 

EDIT:

I was actually very disappointed in the music video myself but I figured if this is her expression of her art, then I'm here for it.

It's cool if you don't like PI, but it's a great video imo. One of her best.

Comparing a video like Paparazzi to a video like PI is as pointless as comparing Kill Bill to Birdman. Both great films, both masterfully shot with great cinematography and great direction, both stylistic and unique, both entertaining but completely different films. Completely different style, completely different tone.

It's understandable that some fans might miss the sleek, pop art videos with choreography and high fashion looks, maybe this sort of video isn't for you. The PI video anything but basic though, it's very well thought out and edited very well.

I love how the camera seems to be trying to keep up with Gaga, it's like the camera is performing with her. I haven't been super impressed with any of her videos since the video for the Born This Way single (I've enjoyed them, but they didn't seem like anything special. She had done her highly stylistic, high fashion, pop-art/ARTPOP style videos to a very high standard already and the Gaga/Haus directed videos didn't match the visionary talent of Joseph Kahn, Jonas Åkerlund, Francis Lawrence and Nick Knight).

I was impressed by Perfect Illusion.
