Quark 7,018 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 o<(0_0)>o Many here say that "Beyonce is the best performer this generation" but I think that Gaga is better than Beyonce. The reason I say this is because Gaga is much more versatile than Beyonce. Beyonce's acclaim mostly comes from the fact that she is a great choreographed dancer. She is a good singer too but her dancing is what really gets people's attention. Also many here equate a great performance with a great choreography. But there are many other ways to be a great performer than just dancing. Freddy Mercury and Jimmy Hendrix for example are considered some of the greatest performers and they did not really have any choreographed sequences. Gaga is more like a Freddy Mercury type of performer but with choreography included. She can entertain with dancing, singing, instruments, energy, charisma, and theatrics.

Borislshere 52,662 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 In most ways i prefer Bey To Gaga. I've never been disappointed by a Beyonce performance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dit 45,103 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 If you strip both of everything and put them both on stage Beyonce would outshine Gaga based off of raw performance skills alone...BUT what makes Gaga such a strong live entertainer is her fusion of raw talent and intricate settings, instruments, choreo, staging, costumes etc..which is just as important.

But all had great energy and vocals. And in general I feel like Gaga could do more to entertain than Beyonce. Even if sometimes Beyonce has better performances than Gaga.

Neight Shayde 7,925 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Although Gaga can sing better than Beyonce, Beyonce can sing better while dancing than Gaga. Beyonce gives off a consistent Michael Jackson vibe whenever she gets on stage ( just like gaga did during her TMB dance in the dark performances).

Gaga has the added benefit that she can entertaining with musical instruments and theater-like acting while performing. She is also much more wild and unpredictable which add to her performances.

n0ne 13,105 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Beyonce is a better dancer. But I think Gaga has her beat in everything else; vocals, versatility/variety, and emotion.

Spoiler Except for the whole "delusional" bit Gaga's a better performer depending on which aspect of the performance you're looking at and who you're asking. Vocally, she has nearly everyone beat and not many people would argue with that Imo, she also gives her performances more "weight" and meaning. Like, there's always some story being told or some message being carried across. And her fashion > Beyonce's fashion. Of course, a Beyonce fan could say that exact same thing and they wouldn't be wrong. There's no objective way to tell since nearly every detail is subjective and opinion based They're both great performers and icons in their own right. I'm happy leaving it at that. There's no need for a competition Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miel 15,009 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 It's weird, because they're comparable, yet... very much not, at the same time. It's like they're good at the same kind of things, in a different way. And in different ways. As others have said, Beyonce is honestly better in terms of pure pop performance- she is a master at the craft of singing and dancing at the same time. Gaga, on the other hand, is like a weird combo of a really good small stage band performer and a really nerdy theatre kid, thrown on the big stage. 3 points in and ready for more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
