BoomKack 6,493 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 From 3:10 onwards. So they start showing the broadcast from the AMAs, listing off the nominees. The group of fans are already there with an award. Gaga doesn't seem startled by the fact her performance has just been taken over by Ansel Elgort's and Yara Shahidi's booming voices from above. Could you imagine they had announced Rihanna as the winner? The absolute embarrassment that would unfold...  Surely this must mean it Gaga was confirmed the winner long before the concert? Was Gaga aware of this?  Just to clarify: I've always been aware of awards shows being bias and jokes about how people buy awards - but I didn't realise it was this serious Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrohemg 7,802 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Of course they knew. Gaga literally pretended to be shocked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildAmerican 13,672 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 They literally always know, they wouldn't've shown it if she wasn't going to win. They've known for weeks, they do at every award show. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tan Fei 1,324 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 maybe the team knows but not Gaga? and they wan to surprise her on stage ? even if she knew beforehand she will still feel the emotions when she sees the fans all cheering for her in the crowd.......................anyway this is not about buying award. this is a fan voted award.  that is why she said the award is for her little monsters...   Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewGr 6,019 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Of course they knew. I don't know if they knew it hours or days before the ceremony but it's obvious. They had the livestream ready, the award, they knew what time they were going to stop the show, and the presenters knew that they were going to connect with DC. It's the same when people pre-record a video as their acceptance speech. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilthyPOP414 646 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 I don't think Gaga knew, those were real tears. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg 6,330 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 I'm fairly sure even we knew she was going to win a few days ago. It was a fan voted award which was done by counting hashtags on Twitter, and when the voting closed last week, people could see that Gaga got the most hashtag votes by quite a large amount. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

elijahfan 24,313 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Of course they knew - one doesn't improvise a televized acceptance speech just like that, and the award didn't materialize itself in the arena by magic But it's entirely possible her team might have kept the outcome secret to her up until the very last minute.
