How I'm feeling about being a Gaga fan right now

DISCLAIMER: this is not a hate post. Do not hate back. I'm just expressing how I feel.

 

Hiya guys:

So I wanted to make this post because recently I have found NO interest in Gaga. I have even gotten angry with her for getting so involved in politics and I feel horrible about it. Because I know its for a good cause. 

After ARTPOP I was so pumped for #LG5 and ready to feel the Gaga excitement again. So far, I havent really felt it. When I first heard PI I kind of got that rush that I used to get when I was 15/16 and Poker Face was everywhere and Gaga was performing it on every show. Now, to be completely honest, I can barely listen to the song... it gets me angry with the LAAAAHV part...

I just feel sooo disconnected from Gaga right now. It is so sad. I dont know what to do. I am obviously grateful that she is a lovely human being and has great values and is happy and all but I just feel that my fire as a fan has left me ;( love the music on Joanne but it's just really not what I 'needed'.... I feel I have an itch and I cannot find a way to scratch it any which way... idk her charisma is still there, but I feel her fire to succeed and change popular culture has left her. 

Right now, I don't really see the Joanne era going anywhere else to be honest, or if it did, I'm just not pumped for it at all.... i just feel sad about it... i just dont feel I can relate to anything on Joanne... maybe Grigio Girls cause it reminds me of my aunt who passed away of cancer :(

Have I moved on? Why am I so bored with Gaga? Have I changed? How can I get that fire back? Help me!

I think we're used to her being everywhere, interviews, specials, tv performances, everything happening at once (Including me) and she's just not prepared to do that this time round. If we wasn't used to how she's treated her previous era's, we wouldn't all be feeling this way. But hold on, we've got some good stuff to look forward to.

try finding some new music to listen to, maybe you've been listening to Gaga for so long you got bored of it, try letting it rest for a while and the come back to it, maybe you'll find things you like!

It happened to me in 2015, I couldn't listen to her music, so I started finding new artists and I try to balance what I listen to, I used to have very little music in my library, now I have 40GB of music :toofunny:

Sometimes an artist you're a fan of makes that album that you just aren't into. It's ok. Maybe the next one will be more to your taste, but it's nothing to get bothered about.

Yeah, I feel like now that she's older, she doesn't feel the need to be everywhere. The overall promo cycle has changed a bit since the late 00's/early 10s too - late night shows and Ellen really don't do much to boost a song anymore (maybe it's a side-effect of DVR and streaming? IDK).

I feel a little disconected to Gaga too, but I will always support her and buy her albums. ARTPOP was amazing, and Joanne started great until she abandoned the album promotion... again. I LOVE Perfect Illusion since first listen, just wish it had a better video visually.  I still have hope for the era, but It s FAR from interesting like all of her previous eras/albums.

Try K-Pop, especially Black Pink, 2NE1, or Bigbang, they're offers SWAGS :lolly:

But I agree. A lot of what made the majority of us stan for her in the first place is just not there anymore. I don't know about y'all but for me it was the uniqueness and mysterious feel she had about her, you never really knew who that woman behind the crazy outfits was, her aesthetics always stood out from the rest and you could rely on her to give you flawless visuals for every single. Of course the music was everything too but that by itself isn't really enough for me to love and respect an artist like I did her, it was mainly the image and aura her persona had. 

All we have now is an album of which 30% of the songs are memorable and the rest just sounds like elevator music, she won't stop making people hate her by talking about politics, cancelled promo and the same outfit recycled a hundred times in a different color :madge:  The GP doesn't even know that Lady Gaga is still making music, a lot of people think her latest single is Applause :toofunny:

so what you and everyone who has replied is saying, is, you would rather Gaga when she is depressed, when she wants to hide from the world, when she gets over worked by going to tv show after tv show singing song after song, all so you can feel connected with her?

"fans"...

The melody that you choose can rescue you ♥

She didn't abandon the promo. She has the AMAs this Sunday.

I find it so weird how people say a busy promo schedule is hard working but touring is expected and normal. Touring is performing a 2 hour set 3-4 nights a week. So 2 televised performances per week, sounds pretty doable,
