Gaga channeling Joan Crawford Oscars look at 2015 Grammys

So I'm still catching up on Feud: Bette & Joan and I just watched the Oscars episode and couldn't help but notice Joan's look reminded me of Gaga's 2015 Grammy's look. The silver theme, silver hair, "plunging neckline" (at least in Joan's day it was :laughga:), even the dress has the same dangling material (sorry idk what it's called). For those who don't know, Joan was upset Bette was nominated for Best Actress and she wasn't so she called all the other nominees and told them she would accept on their behalf if they couldn't attend the show. Lo and behold, Bette did not win and Joan proudly accepted the award in Bette's face. 

In 2013, when "Roar" and "Applause" debuted the same week, Gaga and Katy were pitted against one another. Katy was receiving all the attention and success while Gaga was paid dust. At the 2015 Grammy Awards, every submission from ARTPOP was completely shut out (although C2C was nominated for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album, hence her attendance including a performance). Meanwhile, Katy was nominated for two awards: Best Pop Duo/Group Performance ("Dark Horse (Feat. Juicy J)") and Best Pop Vocal Album (PRISM :awkney:). Just a side note when "Vocal" is listed in the category, it doesn't mean the award is for the vocal performance entirely. It's just a way to differentiate between albums with vocals and albums that are instrumental.

Many were predicting that this would be the night Katy would finally win her first Grammy. Although the awards are not based off chart performance, it certainly helps with voting (the more people who know and like your song, the more votes you get). The Grammy eventually went to A Great Big World & the current Oreo spokeswoman Christina Aguilera for "Say Something". 

So maybe Gaga went to exact revenge for ARTPOP and her green hair and mechanical horse :reductive:

P.S. This is obviously a joke. We know Gaga ain't that petty. I just thought it was pretty interesting seeing all the parallels.

It IS kinda crazy how Gaga's outfit/styling looks like an updated, younger version of Crawford's. I never noticed that before.

nah, you're reaching.:whitney: it just silver themed looks. 

Also, the material isn't the same, as you mentioned. Also, Joan's neckline wasn't low-cut for the day, that was pretty standard.

 

also, this gaga look is overrated to the high heavens by her fans. the dress isn't even flattering on her, AT ALL!

This reminds me more of Joan Crawford than that epic reach.

 

Those eyebrows are reminiscent.
