HOTNebraskaGuy 19,547 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Back in 2015, Lady Gaga had this to say while at an event (Emotional Revolution): "I feel sad when I’m overworked and that I just become a money-making machine and that my passion and creativity take a back seat, that makes me unhappy.” So, my question to the hundreds of people on here who complain about Gaga's choices and decisions regarding her career is- why? Why waste your time on an artist you do not support or appreciate? Why dedicate your time to "missing" an image they used to project? We as stan culture have a serious problem that people don't like to discuss, but I'm not afraid to point it out. In short: we're pretentious, demanding, and disgusting. and there's a point where it goes past "shading" or "spilling tea". When you continuously post comments about how annoyed and disappointed you are concerning an artist's creative decisions (in this case, Lady Gaga's), you pass that point. You see, Lady Gaga is her own person. She is not and never will be some doll you can control and mold into your perfect pop star. She has a heart and a personal drive that many artist seem to lack now a days, which is why it's disturbing to see people who call themselves "fans" shame her for these characteristics. And don't get me wrong. I'm not saying you can't have a negative opinion regarding her choices, but the way you all decide to project it out into the world, as if it's the most important and life changing decision in the world- is too much. Also, to the people who enjoy posting over and over about how much she's changed, it should've never been a surprise to you. Lady Gaga is the fastest and most drastic changing artist of this decade, and she's never not mentioned or warned people about this. And it's not like she's completely changed her political or social views. If anything- they've only become more visible which should be a positive thing, if you actually believe an artist should be able to speak their minds. When you complain about her visual and musical changes and throw descriptive words like "lazy" around, then that's a sign you should probably leave. If you can't enjoy her now then don't act like she's betrayed you or any nonsense like that. She owes you nothing. Just leave and come crawling back when she does something that pleases you. Again, your aggressive negativity regarding Gaga isn't needed in this site that was created for fans to discuss Gaga civilly.

Are you really trying to discredit her work at that conference? Because of that, we know so much about how hard the industry and her success were on her and how fame affects her in general. We should be here for her as she is for us, and her showing us that she's not as invulnerable as we might have believed should have made us sympathetic towards that.

Impostor 4,114 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I'm sick of this kind of talk. Gaga owes us nothing but that doesn't mean her art is free from criticism. I don't like rude comments, but a little bit of acid is okay sometimes. This is not Best Friends Daily. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dit 46,557 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I agree with you. At one point people should just move on if she is bringing so much sorrow and pain into their life because they cannot take the fact that she changed so much or is flopping commercially (and I say flopping commercially only to quote those who say it all the time). Yes I do agree that her visuals have been on a constant decline but she is far from being lazy. Yes the MR video is a lazy effort (recycling a commercial for an MV is bad) but she herself is NOT lazy as she is working on so many different projects as we speak. Gaga will always change and will experience various phases. She is currently in an odd commercial limbo but one day she may bounce back...and if she does not then who cares? enjoy the music first and foremost. Gaga is a musician before being anything else. The visuals and performances are secondary. Though they were once just as important a part in her artistry the priorities have clearly shifted for Gaga and if you cannot make that shift alongside her then go and relax a bit. It's not that serious. Like the OP mentioned..you can always come back if you want... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had it with the "positive freaks" Also I'm not trying to be rude here just so you guys know. If you guys want to stay "loyal" to Gaga's art you should also stay loyal with the fans, because you don't miss an opportunity do drag other fans. Be careful with what you preach.
