Gaga Is A Good Actress

A ton of people on here have told me that Gaga is a wooden actress and that they are worried for ASIB. I think many people on here who aren't interested in Gaga's acting career and only checked on the first few episodes of Hotel could easily come to the conclusion that she's a wooden actress, but by the end of Hotel, I thought Gaga was doing well and holding her own among seasoned pros. She might not be as natural of an actor as Cher, but compared to most singers who've ventured into acting she's done much better. Acting is not only being Meryl Streep and being able to do anything, acting can also be about knowing your strengths. For instance, Mariah has many cringe worthy acting moments, but with the right director and role she shined in Precious. 

I also think of Kimchi on drag race, who was able to emote through taking on a solemn character, and the judges said that what she did was just as impressive as taking on a comedic role.

When watching Gaga's performance of Lush Life, she performs in such a way that she makes the song hers and hers alone, she completely lost herself in the role.

At the beginning of Hotel, Gaga was admittedly a bit stiff, but before the season ended, she was one of the highlights. Flicker is still one of my favorite episodes from any season, mainly because of her superb performance. And even though she only had a brief appearance in Roanoke, you can't deny that she OWNED that role.

I agree 100% 

As Hotel progressed she just got better and better. I rewatched it recently and found her acting to make a lot more sense when you have seen the ending episodes.  

It was a shame that she wasn't in more of Roanoke, because she did own the scenes that she was in. To be honest I didn't even recognize her at first. :ladyhaha:

Honestly I agree so much with you. She just needs the right director to really pull her acting skills together. She has it within her, but she needs to move away from theatricality and into subtlety. She will find power in small face gestures that speak miles more than over the top reactions. I hope she blinks more than she usually does (like, just chill and become the person with threedimensionality). I also hope she doesnt do this very innocent and cringey interpretation of the virginal character. Like we saw in many episodes of Hotel, she can bring the emotions out and make the audience believe it.

she just overdoes her facial expressions and she's the type of actor to "play an emotion" instead of feeling it, in my opinion

Let's just sweep the Million Reasons video and everything associated with it under the rug.

She was so good in Hotel. Flicker is an amazing episode and she absolutely nailed it. But yeah, people are biased against her and they will never ever admit that she's, at least, decent- 

I want her to work with Tarantino so bad. He's perfect for her.

She's gonna nail it. From Hotel as her character grew to Roanoke, stealing the show with such a small role, I have a feeling that she'll do well :)

MTV.co.uk quotes a source close to Tarantino as saying: “Quentin is a huge fan of Gaga and loves her whole personality. He has already sounded her out on a couple of projects, one of which would see her playing an assassin.”  :gaycat:

But I think that ship has sailed. :(
