LilyLark 9,694 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019  Edited: I get that a lot of what happens on stan twitter stays on stan twitter (only 10% of the GP is on twitter, much less entertainment twitter) but 2019/20 twitter behavior is different from 2011. Taylor ended up getting a fair amount of bad press over the Swifties behavior with Scooter. Whenever Swifties, Beyhive, Monsters act foolish on twitter—guess who ends up eating sh*t? Not the twitter stans, but the stars themselves. It's unfair, but it is what it is. Do people honestly not realize that is how it always plays out? Even if Billie went f*ck Gaga, guess who would end up getting the sh*tty press and dragged once the stans go buck wild? Gaga. And besides all that, bullying is wrong in the first place. I'm aware it's near pointless to play twitter police, but really can't some of you guys cut this sh*t out? This isn't going to "play" the way you want it play—instead, it's going to be spun as 33 year old Gaga bullying a teenager even if Gaga has jack to do with it. Luckily, there's enough real life news and entertainment news that this hopefully shouldn't become a "thing," like the Ed Sheeran debacle, but it could have been really bad for Gaga. Off the top of my head, I can think of at least three twitter incidents when little monsters got Gaga bad press...1) Venom reviews 2) Ed and 3) Kissing Brian. TLDR: Some (not all of y'all, because a lot on twitter and on here see it's foolish) are going to one day do real damage, and not temporary damage, to Gaga. People are either desperate for drama, or they misplace their emotions from other aspects of their lives into dumb stan wars. The few of you on here with big twitter accounts, who stir drama up, just...if you really stan Gaga think twice before you engage in this type of behavior.

KleinGa 18,177 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Girl breathe. Monsters have been this way since the very beginning. At one point, they were the most ruthless and vile fanbase on Twitter. Gaga’s career seemed to have done fine 10 years later. The Billie mess was sooo tame compared to what wouldve happened if this were 2010/11. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoss 2,101 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 this type of behavior is not and never will be gaga’s fault so it will never damage her career imo, just makes her fans look bad 🤡 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beyonce is thriving right now as an artist but her stans are universally hated. No correlation between stan behavior and career relevance exists Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but in 2019 cancel culture is a real thing (yeah, sh*tty right wingers take advantage of the term, but it happens over the silliest things). Like all stars who have been around a while (Katy, Gaga, Rih, Madonna, etc.), Gaga's ish has been exposed in the past but if it keeps getting brought up...because monsters provoke other stans into fights...it could get her "cancelled".

Any time I read (past tense because I haven't seen it in years) something about Gaga stans attacking someone else, it always starts out "Gaga is so kind and preaches a message of love and tolerance...so why do her cultists act like such clowns?" If anything, they're making Monsters look bad 🖤 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose P 23,341 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 I think what goes down on Twitter is less relevant and impactful than you think. When sh*t goes down you hear all this commotion but it’s all senseless noise and the next week no one even remembers what happened. That’s how it always is on stan Twitter.

It's not, I just naturally cuss a lot and if I write like i normally talk....I sound angry lol. But my point remains...people need to cut it out. Twitter bullying by monsters might have not impacted Gag's in the past, but in 2019/2020 I could see it hurting her. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me one instance where the behavior of the fans has resulted in a major artist getting cancelled? They get cancelled because of their own actions, not the fans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly. That's public knowledge at this point and ARTPOP became a 14 track album on streaming services because of it She hasn't done anything worthy of being cancelled by anyone but pressed stans of other artists tbh. đź–¤ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morphine Prince 96,069 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 This fan base has always been ruthless and often immature, vile, and toxic. It's good when Gaga needs to be defended but a double edged sword when they show the Little Monstrosities they can be at times. Gaga doesn't even engage with these people anymore. She knows many are toxic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It went way beyond "stan twitter." It doesn't hurt her career, but it is not like it does her any good, either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
