I'm glad it wasn't released. It would have destroyed her career because she wouldn't be able to book the Oscar's and that played a huge role in restoring her image. C2C wasn't enough. Also, TIHTY would have been trashed as hypocritical.

why?

Madonna's career didn't end with SEX, Erotica, and the Girlie Show :madge:

She would be here with another hit and a controversial single era. 

 

Yes but her follow up album peaked at #3 and then Ray Of Light itself was #2.

It's a different case.

Madonna did something that now, years and years later, is accepted\known as ART.

DWUW was just a mess made to create fuss.

Even gaga herself regret the vid if she didn't release it

because apparently "Gaga's career would be over forever" since the video would be seen as 'rapey' and she would be trashed.

im pretty sure the Oscars look into an artists discography and achievements before they invite someone to perform there and would most likely look into the 'controversy' to clear up anything that they thought was wrong :huh:

i would like to think the people who work in the Oscars are a smart, intelligent bunch of people who don't side-eye someone because "lol the video looks a bit rapey let's not let her perform" and look more into things :huh:

I get, I get it now :poot:

But I will never understand why Bedtime Stories did so well after Erotica.

People were way too sensitive about that video.  It needed to be released.  It was meant to be shocking, explicit, and even kind of disturbing.  The three stars are Lady Gaga, R. Kelly, and Terry Richardson are super controversial figures that have been put on blast for many reasons.   It would of been a huge video.  Judging from the clips we got to see, it looked Terry's best work and one of Gaga's best videos.

Alejandro: class vs DWUW: trash. 

Alejandro was an artistic dark sexual performance. DWUW was just p*rn.

exactly what I think

the footage we saw from DWUW read has soft p*rn... almost like a comedic p*rn parody...

yes the video would have probably helped the song get very popular/successfull but only because web pages and blogs would have posted the video with a negative clickbaity title like:

"GAGA HAS SEX WITH R. KELLY IN NEW VIDEO!" or "GAGA HUMPS THE FLOOR IN NEW WH*RISH VIDEO"

Spoiler

tbh i would definitely wanna watch the original full lenght video just to see how it was edited and how provocative it was BUT if it has to be leaked in order for me to see it then KEEP IT. Now Gaga can't be seen as a wh*ore provocative pop star.... She clearly wants to be seen as the opposite now with Joanne and everything...

From the leaking footages, it looks really cheap and bad taste. Glad that it did not come out.:reductive:

You don't understand why Till It Happens To You would be perceived as hypocritical had the Do What U Want video come out? Really?

If you give a platform and paycheck to two known rapists, one of whom is guilty of the exact kind of sexual misconduct that supposedly gave you PTSD, and then a year later you start giving lectures on sexual assault, take part in a documentary about rape on college campuses, perform on the Oscar stage with victims of rape, and profit from a song written from the perspective of a rape victim....you don't see the gross hypocrisy in that?

It wouldn't have destroyed shìt. It's just the Little Managers overreacting as usual and being hypocrites because they want CleanImageGa/GPFriendlyGa yet they complain that she's boring and that she still flops :awkney:
