Before i share my opinion  i want to say that everyone is free to feel any type of way they want to feel about the VMA performance . I have always defended Gaga from the irrational rude complaint but i think i feel a sense of security  to share my thoughts between us as fellow fans respectfully within this site .

While i think the performance is good  and it definitely has some praise worthy qualities like gaga's 1000% stage presence /energy and her ever amazing live vocals, i feel conflicted about the performance personally . I find myself unable to watch it twice . Even tho it was probably the best of the vma night .

She had months to plan this and had 9 minutes to give us the most mind blowing performance of our lives,and maybe she did that for some of you but she didnt for me . I just think the performance could have been way better and here is why.

I think gaga is prioritising being an "artiste" over being a "performer". We can see from her enigma shows and this VMA medley that she is focusing more on being a flawless singer and dynamic dancer on stage  than being the gaga that we always knew would be to entertaining and leave our wigs snatched . While she will always have the best stage presense of any artist alive today ,i feel like she does not rehearse enough to be as flawless with the vocal and dance steps like she intends to . 

I have 2 problems with her focusing more on being flawless with the singing and dancing. number 1 is that i dont think she rehearses enough  which causes the breaks in choreo like i said above etc. and that may sterm from her working with friends  and also that may be the best option for her physical and mental health 

My second issue is that because she is trying to  be the that "artiste"  things like stage design , constume ,lighting and mind blowing stunts have taken a major back seat since  her superbowl performance . The VMA lighting was dull and dissapointing for me apart from stupud love . The stage design was basically non existent and it was pretty much devoid of the gaga stunts we all love like changing outfits right before your eyes and jumping from rooftops .and offcourse i dont expect that from every performance but for me the VMA lacked concept.

I will always love gaga and support her music even if she farts into a microphone . But i feel like within us , we should be able to admit when a performance is far from satisfactory and encourgage her to do better (not bully her)  because we know  her true capabilites and the VMA was Little Bit bit below her standards 

(I wont condone any unnecessary rude comments towards gaga or myself please )

 

What is this argumentation? Why do you think her wanting to be an "artiste (?)" somewhat hinders her capabilities as a "performer"? If anything, the only thing that made people unable to watch Gaga's medley performances at the VMAs over and over again is the fact that the performance is less artistic than what she used to do back in her prime years. Stage design was not the problem, neither were the other artistic aspects of it.

Miley's performance was iconic/slayage. I can't say the same for Gaga's.

I think the VMAs were just the beginning, apparently the performance was cut and some parts will be CTV exclusive ("askip", like we say in french). Personally, I loved it, especially the Stupid Love part. Billboard Awards are coming, and I hope she's made a lot of beautiful things for the Chromatica Ball.

Omg where did this come from!

I just wasn't impressed with the vocals knowing what she's capable of tbh but I think as a whole the performance was phenomenal

I completely agree with you.

Some of you need to decide whether you want Gaga to sing her best, or Dance her best, because apparently you don't give her any leeway when she tries to do both, which is very difficult.   It's why she's used backing tracks so heavily in the past ( nearly lip syncing) in order to mask the effects of heavy choreo.   

IMO let her do both and recognize the little glitches as the effects of being human and actually performing live.  Otherwise I'd prefer she quit dancing and just sing, and let the dancers do the dancing.
