She’s mainly just the public face of them Glamour article on Haus Labs: "This is not a case of Gaga just slapping her name on a label; she's put just as much care into this line as she does in her music. 'I created these collections like I create a record," she said to Allure. "They have themes. They're thought out. Everything from the shades to the different variations.'" Gaga on IG about Haus labs: "Between developing formulas, mixing the shades, designing the packaging and components, as well as casting the models and collaborating on styling, direction, and being the creative director, pulling all-nighters making boards that showed all our imagery and art—this launch is so very special to me. This is a labor of love and passion to be the Warhol of an artist I’ve always wanted to be." So uh.....she was a lot more than just "the face" of Haus Labs, lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally no one knows, their website is very obscure, lmao. They say that donations go to "hundreds of outreach programs", but don't list them. They do list all the major sponsors though and a handful of events they have out together. But I don't even think the bus has been active for a long time? Has anyone seen it going around at all lately...? Has anyone on this board ever been to a BTWF event...? I really wanna know how much they've collected vs what they've accomplished, tbh.

The BTWF sadly does not seem to be helping actual mental health facilities in any way, nor does it provide any kind of suicide hotline, unless someone can prove me wrong...? All I know for sure is Cynthia is on the payroll and Gaga gains tax benefits from it sooooo..... If you to their website you can see what they do Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So uh.....she was a lot more than just "the face" of Haus Labs, lol Yeah so she’s involved with the colors and imagery...she’s not the CEO. She’s not in charge of the marketing, the promo, the strategy decisions, the financial decisions. I don’t think most people here understand how many people are involved in running a company like this reality’s tight if the music is right Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lists lots of corporate sponsors but has tons of vague marketing speak. Looks like they've done a handful of mental health seminars and had the traveling bus for a bit, but...what else? As someone who worked with youth with mental health issues, I've never seen or heard of the BTWF donating or doing anything for any public mental services or educational departments. I'm genuinely curious as to how their donations break down, because I suspect it's a lot more like major charities wherin overhead is so "expensive'" that they only end up actually donating 10-20% of what they get.

I really wanna know how much they've collected vs what they've accomplished, tbh. WOOOW that's incredibly fishy actually. I had no idea, I went through the wikipedia page and found this : In 2012, Gaga expressed an interest in being part of the "natural fabric of schooling."[44] In July 2012, the BTWF partnered with supplier of office products Office Depot to create a range of limited edition back-to-school products including: "empowerment gift cards" containing motivational messages, and "bravery bracelets."[45] wtf is this hunny? seems like promoting of two companies Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like how is this woman gonna delay the album cause "not the right time" yet last week we had "haus value pack", the week before we had new colors, the week before we had the "gaga birthday pack".... I can no longer buy her delaying the album when haus labs has some kind of new promo every single week This. Is truly crazy that shes actually posting about it. And yet we bought music and tickets for her show and she remains silent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
