I think we should give Gaga a break

[Ronk 14,762]

She will do whatever she wants at any point in her life.  If she feels like doing a jazz album, she will do it.  The same with rock or any other genre.  Her fanbase will not determine what she does, but her changing tastes and ideas over time is what she will follow.  Fans should not, and will not, hamper her from accomplishing everything on her bucket list.  I think Broadway is probably one of those things, for example.  When she gets old, do we want her to look back and say gee, I wish I had done that?  She deserves to do everything she desires.

She can literally release the clips on her YouTube channel? Surely she wouldn't need any kind of licensing deal like she would with an award show performance

Um hello! Yes she would. All of that stuff is heavily negotiated.

She can’t just have Livenation put up a ton of money for a tour and then stream it on her YT channel for free. MGM isn’t going to let her give Enigma away for free either when they only make money by asses in seats. 

If I had to guess, her rights in her live performances are subject to a holdback period. So you are gonna have to either live with fan streams, be patient or get some money together and go to the show.

But what you should not do, is hate on a pop star  for being a pop star.

I never hated on Gaga at all

And sorry, I didn't think about Livenation. I take back my previous point about releasing DVDs

literally facts. gaga takes herself too seriously i think. not everything has to be a huge, dramatic statement. just drop a buzz single for crying out loud. the fans are THIRSTY and the museum was cute but we want MUSIC 

"The museum was cute"?!?

The b*tch has been serving and doin it for the culture for 11 straight years. She is MORE than a just a bop-maker, she's an Artist. I don't know what "fans" ur speaking for, but I want QUALITY over quantity. Which takes time! And if you and urs feel so compelled to create FIFTEEN pg  threads of petty, ungrateful and entitled outrage; then maybe it's time to move on  from the Monsterdom  Cuz there are PUH-lenty of artists, doin it for the money, putting out auto-tuned bs every month for you to happily swing ass to. 

Enjoy...

Oh yeah, I understand that. My only point is that some fans are getting everything (ENIGMA, exclusive concerts, Jazz and Piano, Haus of Gaga store) and some fans are getting nothing at all.

But that's LIFE sis! I wanna go to Disneyworld every year, for two wks, with park hoppers, stay at a resort on site, eat at the $$$ restaurants, have a VIP pass so I'm first in line to meet characters and be able to buy anything I please from any store I go into. Do you see me leaving petty ungrateful (and very personal) comments online? steady dragging and negging e-ver-y f'n thing the CEO of Disney says and does for not giving me those things? Do you see me being a bitter betch cus Disney has the audacity NOT to build Dole Whip kiosk and  Jurrasic Park Ride across the street for my pleasure and conveniene? 

No, bc it's a very unreasonable thing to expect. From an individual OR a business

Not you. I mean in general. She gets way too much hate from people who are supposed to be fans.

It is almost as toxic as sports fans honestly.

Ya'll will never be satisfied omfg the bitch is doing a residency, just won an Oscar, 3 Grammys, and opened the museum (which is free admission) with a lot of iconic looks. LG6 will come soon enough but just enjoy what's happening now!!

The only thing I want for Mother Monster is for her to be happy. I, like MM, believe in a higher power, and I, like MM, believe that higher power wants me to spread kindness. At work, at home, with my daughter, with my friends, with people on GGD, especially the ones suffering emotionally. And, yes, I need to spread and share kindness with Lady Gaga. She too is a human being.

Kindness is the only thing in this world that we can never have too much of.

I caught myself a few weeks ago thinking ,”god...why can’t she do something new? Why don’t I feel connected to her? Why does it seem like money and paid gigs are all that matters?” What I realized: 

1. I’m spoiled from all of the amazing amazing art she has created over the past 10/11 years. 

2. As soon as I’ve listened to new music from her I’m obsessed for like 6 months and then I already start getting excited for the next project. 

3. For her entire career she has created every iconic moment, designed stages, written and executive produced all of her music, been the boss to the Haus of Gaga.. I think she’s giving them some time to shine. They’ve proven their loyalty to her in so many ways and have made her dreams into reality. I think in the transition time to a new installment in the “Gaga narrative” she’s helping them to bring some of their dreams to life!

 

We we have to remember..our mother monster is a human above being a pop star. She’s a friend, a daughter, a lover, just a person. She’s begging us to see that and love her for it. 

 

Just some thoughts. Love and peace to all! Happy early Pride! 🌈🌈🌈

Thank u!!! I agree 1000% I love all the monsters in our fan base but I go on Twitter and some of them have a lot of ****ing nerve. She has done SO MUCH in 10 years amidst all of the stuff she goes through I’d LOVE to see any of them try to do anything she has done under all that pressure. I would live if Gaga posted a video calling out some of the fans that are vile. We’re lucky she doesn’t call out her fans. No hate tho I love all of u! ❤️

Agree with everything you said OP.

Also, I kind of get frustrated with people complaining she's slower than every one else (which isn't correct). I mean, b*tch just released a soundtrack several months ago. People keep judging her against Ariana or Rihanna's old timeline of releasing, instead of recognizing Gaga releases on a fairly normal schedule for pop stars. KP has had a career as long as Gaga's and has released fewer albums. Adele's career has been shorter, but in context she's also released fewer records...and so on.
