I stopped reading as soon as I saw Madonna's name.

If you cant respect MADONNA, how would you expect people to respect Gaga?

Regardless of my respect to Madonna, I don't like Gaga to be compared to her. Especially what Madonna said of Gaga.

The OP should be the permanent site banner.

When i became a Gaga fan it looked to me like she was a warrior queen using the shitty stuff that had happened to her as a weapon (i didnt know her well then, nor i did know a lot about pop singers) and i liked that. She had been this inscrutable alien during TF + TFM and now she was allowing people to take a peek of the bead underneath that but without losing her strenght. Afterwards during the ARTPOP era it became clear she just liked wallowing in her selfpity and this Joanne deal just cemented it. To top it off she basically said the first 3-4 years of her career as Lady Gaga (aka the part i liked) werent really her at all.

She's a talented vocalist but at this point i believe that literally all of the relevant pop girls (including Katy Perry and Rihanna) have more strenght of character. I still look to her stuff because of the woman she once was but the woman she became is generally the kind of person i'd avoid if possible

Well she used to say that she lied and lied till the lies became the truth. I guess she just wanted to prove the people around her that she can make it. Now that the mission is accomplished it feels to me like she is done with the whole pop scene. It's truly sad to see her in this lost state.

Oh look, you felt the need to post even when you don't know what you're replying to. How very intelligent of you.

Like I said, that's not my intention. I still LOVE Gaga. I still ROOT for her. I just think she has a tendency to inflict struggles upon herself while being aware of it. I don't get that. Why would you say you're aware of it, then take some more amphetamines and go deeper into your downword spiral? The first step to healing, any therapist will tell you this, is being aware of the problem and traps. She's aware of the traps and the problem, she's told us. So why can't she escape it? Why does she go back to self-destruction time and time again? That's the topic I'd like to discuss here.

Sorry, just now seeing this! Not sure if you realize this, but the ONLY part I commented on was her reaction to Selena. Nothing else I assumed you wrote. It's fine that I didn't read the whole thing when I only commented on what I read. Also, if you have any experience with mental illness yourself or in others, self-destruction is a big part of it. You are self-sabotaging and self harming. That is what is happening here. She can't escape it because that's what her brain is telling her to do, she doesn't have complete control of that. Do research before telling her to do something that she cannot do.
