Carpet Shark 229 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 The financial papers in the UK often have proper Arts sections and hire journalists who specialise in these areas. The Financial Times in particular had a very good article on Gaga and BTW by Stephen Fry in 2011, and the article, full interview transcript and audio are still available on the site today (albeit behind a paywall).

djBuffoon 12,136 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 1 hour ago, Neal said: What I don’t get about the few negative bits about some reviews is the argument “She’s a singer, she can sing well, nothing to see her folks”. The way they undervalue Gaga’s voice is a conundrum for me cause I view her singing as so raw, so powerful, so technically skilled yet so authentic. Conveying emotions such as happiness, melancholy, and heartbreak while singing live is one of the hardest things to do as an actor in my book. There are a lot of talented singers in the world, but when that lens is focused on you, waiting for you to belt your heart out, I don’t think it’s as easy as critics are aiming it to be. And I know Gaga will kill it in that aspect. I cannot wait. These critics you’re talking about clearly take her talents for granted. Gaga makes it look effortless, as all great stars do, but to say, “She sings great, so what?” is pure ignorance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennie Kim 7,006 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 The members a few pages ago saying to not engage with trolls took the words out of my mouth, if you fight back you're just giving them visibility they don't deserve. Block + Report and life goes on. I remember many situations in which monsters blew things out of proportion and things took a turn for the worse (e.g Linda Perry/TIHTY debacle) Spoiler Also, be careful with what you post here, haters are definitely lurking.

strangerthings 108 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Sorry to keep posting about reporting tweets in this thread but you would think there would be a pinned thread about it on this forum. Really crazy that there isn't. The jezebel tweet is still up even though it was officially and legally refuted by WB. Report the tweet. It is false and harmful. Also report the writer. Duh.

Gaga is on the brink of becoming a legend wih this movie and you're gonna let a bunch of Pissney Spears and Moldonna stans ruin it? You are the one letting them get at you to the point you can't even enjoy your fave's success and I am the weak one ... They've been doing this sh*t everytime she's about to do something (remember Superball?). And the fact that they feel the need to be doing it for YEARS now just shows it is not working... No one really cares about stan twitter in the real world, it's just a bunch of sad people who project their anger on other people, they don't hold any power. Since it's a strong Oscars contender now, this is much bigger than stan twitter now and like somebody said above, let Warners do their job this is only their chance at the Oscars this year ... they are not gonna mess this up. Just seat back, relax and enjoy the ride. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully it doesn't count for MC and RT, so we still won What is it with these so-called economists-turned-film-critics though??? First it was Financial Times and now this. Just stay in your lane and concern more about stock market or how f***ed up world economy is What's wrong with these guys . That's never been the point of this movie or the other ones before it, it's a F***ing melodrama and classic romance set up in the entertainment environment, could it be music, Hollywood, Broadway or Vegas for what it' worth. It is not a documentary on the modern music industry ffs, they really don't get it. "Fame Is A Boomerang" - Maria Callas Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
