Muscletank 410 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 So I know everyone has their opinion on the show but already the reaction speaks for itself. It was overwhelmingly positive and this has been rewarded with a massive sales boost. My personal feelings on the show was that not only was it sheer entertainment, it was mostly all her biggest hits and there was absolutely no controversy. It really was a case of ok, let's put our differences aside , I am here to entertain you. I loved that she did Born This way and the opening number which were subtle but strong messages of inclusion and love. No need for a "lets blow up ****" moment here. From a purely anecdotal point of view, I was watching the show in a sportsbar surrounded by blue collar guys. Not queens or chicks but tradies, manual workers, ie NOT typical gaga support. Listening all around me, I heard nothing but praise. "What a voice" was something I heard consistently. People overwhelming loved the show. She was unbelieveably smart to keep it drama free and this has payed off in sales and very positive press for her. Whether this translates longterm who knows, but it is so awesome to see the General public back on her side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Heart 5,142 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 This was ha revival for sure. Just like Bey in 2013.

THIS!! i am honestly shocked that she had a choice to cause drama but she chose the opposite and it payed off, she really made the right call i hope she stays loved by the GP and not f**k things up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RitaOral 1,322 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 If she really wanted mainstream support she could get it in an instant, all she needs is some generic trend hopping hit and they would be all over it. It is not important to her, shes been there done that, let her experiment and make the music she wants. Artistry>>>>>>Commercial Performance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robo Ga 15,297 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Your post actually made me a bit emotional ( as I have been the past 24 hours)... Seeing Gaga get the respect and admiration she deserves from the GP is an amazing feeling. NO ONE can dispute her talent or artistry now. This is a turning point in her career. She has always been a legend to us, but now she has solidified her legend status with the GP as well. 🤖⚡️ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
