Why the ArtRave wasn't cancelled?

I have a hunch that with the ArtRAVE she hadn’t developed it yet but it may have pushed it. She did say she had to start ARTPOP before she had fully recovered so I have a feeling the pressure and stress of a full album roll out and tour hurt especially when you then add in later a very hard and serious breakup. She just got a lot more curveballs post ARTPOP that I think they all started to catch up. BTWB being cancelled wasn’t because of fibromyalgia, that was the hip breaking which she has said is where this all really began. She didn’t get the chance to heal properly and so this happened. Joanne was a rough tour as she was back to dancing hard again (though not TMB or BTWB thankfully).

She did skip the Mary Jane Holland chair choreo quite a few times. That may have been the most physically demanding part of the show. The rest could be more easily adapted to however she felt each night I guess. The other tours seem more choreographed.

Despite Gaga being affected by fibromyalgia, she did all the dates without a single problem. :oprah: But then she had to cancel the Rock in rio Festival when the documentary was coming out, and a lot of European dates were post-poned and then cancelled when she toured with Joanne World Tour. I was wondering why a few years ago she wasn't in pain and now all of a sudden she is and can't perform. Any guess? Did her condition got worse with time? Do we need to expect more dates cancelled in the upcoming tours?

Because she wasn't affected by it back then. Fibromyalgia is weird. The first few years is no problem, but it'll get back at ya! And ESPECIALLY when you break a hip!

She was also doing drugs. This time when she cancelled, she said she was doing so because she was taking care of herself like she had never before. Because in the past, she kept pushing even with a broken hip. She did tens of BTWB dates while still in pain before discovering she*had* to cancel. This time she wasn't gonna let it get that far. And good for her.

She never said she broke her hip tens of days before she canceled the Born This Way Ball, she said there was a heavy pain. She even said at the artrave in Montreal that it was that "Scheisse" performance that we all know that pretty much ended the tour. And yes, she did the right choice in just cancelling the tour, it most likely wouldn't have even been all that great to see her dancing in pain :cryga:

fibro gets worse over time, it probably wasn't as bad back then but she was also loaded on drugs

Was she on drugs? Artrave was during the C2C era, I thought she was sober by then?

I don't believe she ever confirmed it was the Scheiße performance.

As far as I remember (and I'm pretty sure), it wasn't a fracture. It was a repeated strain injury. That's something that happens over time. The Scheiße performance was just a breakdown, a nail in the coffin. She said in an interview that she kept going because she thought, "Only 50 more shows, only 40 more, only 30 more..." - and doctors told her when she finally got help, surprised, "how have you been doing this all this time with a hip like that?" That seems to suggest it was a longer term thing.

Ohhh... Well here's the clip where she talks about her Scheisse breakage I guess... I feel like she's all over the place sometimes :ladyhaha:

 

Wow, I just got the situation, nevermind, I feel dumb :lmao:

Fibro is a disease that can come in flares. You can be okay for a while, even years for some, and then have a debilitating flare.

I guess that it wasn't as bad back then, but if you compare performances from the North American leg of the tour to the European leg, then you will see that she seems to avoid some dance moves more in the later shows.

BTWB was cancelled because of the hip injury that began her problems with chronic pain, it originates there. During ARTPOP I don’t know that it had onset that much, they have said it can take years to show even if it originates from something at a much earlier date, especially after prolonged stress, work, etc. And let’s not forget she did much more in 2017 than she did in 2014 during the artRave, following a breakup and loss of one of her closest friends. ASIB, 5F2, Coachella, SB, 2 music videos, JWT, various award shows >>>> SXSW, Roseland, artRave, Cheek to Cheek
