A Very Gaga Holida

This list is pure sh*t. That's a fact. The proof? Justin Bieber's "Sorry" doesn't have a music video.

#5 Lady Gaga, Beyoncé - Telephone (the only video:triggered:)

What did they have to say about the music video? 👇

  Reveal hidden contents

"What happens when you pair up two of the most influential female pop stars in recent history for a music video? That would be “Telephone,” the gloriously ridiculous, nine-and-a-half-minute spectacle from director Jonas Åkerlund that involves a women’s prison, Beyoncé (ahem, “Honeybee”) feeding Lady Gaga a pastry, a murder at a diner, a poison sandwich-making tutorial, Quentin Tarantino references aplenty, and a dance sequence that has spawned dozens of YouTube tutorials. If all that’s not enough to make “Telephone” an instant classic, consider that the video is actually a continuation of Gaga’s “Paparazzi” video from the year prior, with the same director -- which ends with Gaga in the can -- and let your mind be blown. Could a third installment be in our future? We can only hope."

Is your favorite music video of the decade included on the list? https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/list/8544596/best-music-videos-2010s-top-100

Tbh, all of Gaga's videos are better than most of these. Formation is overrated, We Found Love was not known for its music video. Even the Million Reasons video has more substance and meaning than most of these. Oh well. Telephone should be higher (at least #2)  and Marry The Night's exclusion was something else 👀🤔

Idk how Born This Way or Marry the Night aren't on this list but Justin Bieber's Sorry and Adele's Hello are...

Well at least they put Born This Way on their list of songs that defined the decade.

The video should’ve gotten the same recognition.

Tbh MTN deserved to be in the list and also be #1

 

Her own fanbase doesn't recognize the masterpiece that MTN was sometimes.

Friday and Anaconda being there while MTN's not is a joke. And 7/11? A MV that looked like it was filmed using a 2008 webcam? Really Susan?

We Can't Stop is actually worthy on this list imo. It's weird, well done and the new chapter for Miley as a grown up.

I get what you mean, but I respectfully disagree. To me the video is just Miley showing she has grown up by trying to be as shocking as possible, and not in a good way. She did the same with Wrecking Ball, also shocking but in a good way (except for the hammer licking). If it isn't on the list it should be.
