OMonster 14,667 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Gaga never does what others expect her to do, or what others are already doing. And for that reason, I think we should be a little more optimistic about the potential success of Haus Beauty. I've noticed a lot of worry that Haus Beauty may be unable to match the likes of Fenty and Kylie Jenner's brand. There is no way however that Gaga is going to release products that are in line with these. Why? Because A) they already exist, and B) it would be commercial suicide. No singer could release a brand big enough to 'compete' with Fenty - and we know that Gaga likes to be #1 in whatever she does. From this, I think it's likely that Haus Beauty is going to cater for a completely different market... not young women, but, alternatively, LGBT people. A make-up / beauty brand aimed at those who want a more theatrical, expressive look. Makeup that isn't conventionally 'beautiful'. There's a few indicators that this is the case: - Gaga wouldn't release a beauty line that copies any unbeatable brand. - We know that Gaga is headlining this year's Met Gala with the theme of 'Camp Couture'. There are rumours that Haus Beauty will be launched on this date, reaffirming the idea that the line may be more flamboyant than other brands. - Gaga is known for her extravagant looks. And with speculation that 'CrazyGa' may be returning for LG6... now would be the perfect time to make that persona more accessible to the public and her fans. - Gaga's brand is the antithesis to 'beauty norms'. It would feel extremely off-brand for her to release a conventional makeup line. More than off-brand... it would feel totally inauthentic. What do you guys think? Personally, I think Haus Beauty could be a great move. If she really transforms popular beauty trends, then I'm all for it. There is no leading brand in the LGBT beauty market - and I'd be happy for Gaga to fill that gap. subtext / fantasy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadariousGarage 1 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Honestly it would be a good marketing move for her to cater to us gays for haus beauty, becayse you are right there is no brand that caters for the Lgbtq+ community and all of her fans are gay soooo she gonna sell well if she does But straight people might be pissed of tho but who gives any F*ckes about them Lets do it baby I know the Law Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOVEDRUG 10,458 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 I really hope you're right, I'd hate for her to release a women's makeup range since about a majority of her fans are gay/bi men I could also see (possibly) kits that you can use to make looks similar to hers? (multiple colours for an 'Applause' kit, reds and greys for a BTW kit, more neutral pastel colours for a Joanne kit, the equipment to create the Judas makeup) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure many Gaga fans would rather she released that than everyday makeup Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwerk 7,215 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 I kind of have a feeling it won't be makeup, but skincare. I feel it's more a money move than a passion project, but who am I to judge? For me the positives are that if this is not a passion project for her, it probably is for her skin therapist Joomee and or her makeup artist Sarah Tanno. Gaga is a teamplayer and very loyal so I totally see her friends/teams dreams become her own so she can help them build something big. According to Gaga I'm a ****ing rad bitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChromeAngel 3,230 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 I still don’t believe it’s happening. Do we have solid confirmation or just rumors? I support everything she does and I’m sure she has a legit vision for it if she does indeed make it a thing. But still not the path I would go Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's skincare and if they are good products, I might buy them. If it's make-up, most probably not. 20 minutes ago, WarriorPhoenix said: If it's theatrical/stage makeup it'll sell better than ordinary makeup.
