Suspiria 10,683 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I'd say I've been a stan since pre-ARTPOP, but I didn't start reading GGD until last year, and as such, I've missed out on reading the general consensus on many of Gaga's looks, such as the dreadlocks from 2012-14. Sometimes they were really tasteful and fresh looking (these are 2 of my all time favourite looks), giving off a sophisticated "contemporary powdered wig" regal vibe: I also think they worked well when she was going for the full on filthy, drug-crazed, desperate, nothing-left-to-lose swine thing at SXSW: However, they just screamed "white girl trying to be ghetto" when she was going through her Bangerz pre-ARTPOP Princess High phase And I won't even show those messy af ropey ones she wore out a few times So what was the general reaction to them at the time? I feel like there was probably a lot of cultural appropriation complaints. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
judxs 762 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I don't remember there being much backlash for the Jingle Bell Ball look (first one) or the second, I'm pretty sure everyone was just gagged by how good she looked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShayCristoforo 10,520 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I think they look fine but also corny when it's on someone who's not in hip hop/reggae or Rastafari culture Get the pinot ready, because it's turtle time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley 8,633 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I don’t remember any backlash. That was before there was a huge focus on cultural appropriation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any idea how many people here in Europe have dreads and no one bats an eyelid? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After btw anything gaga would do was just attempt for attention Thats what i meant. I live in portugal. Dreads are fairly common. At my job obe guy has big dreadlocks and hes not really rastafari.

kabirartfling 9,063 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 These were iconic. So pretty and God like. However she ruined the whole surprise factor by wearing them in 2012, almost a year before ARTPOP came out, thus killing the surprise element Give your love to me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
