Has Gaga Lost Her Mystery?

Apparently not. There’s always at least one thread a day as to what is she doing? What is she going to do next? Why is she doing that? Blah blah blah. It’s just that the self entitle little managers get pissed for the artist not executing her piece of work as they want.

Yes, she’s a well-defined icon!

So true! I noticed that lol - so apparently she is is still very mysterious to so many just by being absent for a while.

No matter what they say about ARTPOP and how it was too weird, too much, I think she lost her "mystery" around that time and became more real, not necessarily in a bad way. I felt like it was the first time we were getting to see the person behind the artist, she was making things more personal. Even when talking about her private life before that, there was still an aura of mystery around her, and she wasn't always being serious about it and was rather avoiding things that were too personal.

I actually thinks he’s more mysterious now. Everything she does is under wraps at all time , hence we never know anything the trust any “insider”.

how do you expect someone to maintain "mystery" over a long career?

No. The bish is silent and its all a mystery as to why. Plus, no one knows what she's gonna do next. She's never predictable or goes with the trends. Truly an enigma

we still don't really know **** about the backstage, always have, always will, and we think we know her because iss been eleven years...

I want to know what she eats on a daily basis

There already have been some good points made about how social media dampens the mystery of celebrities by lifting up the veil so to speak. However, I would say that we only see what she allows us to see. She has a carefully crafted public image, and even her discussions of her mental health issues and traumatic experiences are part of that –– I'm not saying it's not genuine, but her being open about these issues seems to give the illusion of transparency, whereas there's still a lot about her that we don't know. So yes, she still is shrouded in some mystery, but perhaps not as much as during the first few years of her career when she didn't want to be called by her real name in public and when no one knew what she really looked like beneath the over-the-top costumes, wigs, and makeup.

Hell yeah.

I understand she is been through a lot and wanted to go low profile while softening her image in order to gain the trust of the public once again but she really lost her autonomist aura and became someone defensive. A Star Is Born-era tears were the nails of the coffin. Someone she always refers to the past letting time slowing her down. 

Please do not come at me about her troubles. Artistic presentation is a construct and it is consist of choices. Apparently these are her choices.

I am longing to see her acting cold and aristocratic, intellectual, caring about the power of musical inventions,  aware of her impact and power, proud of her struggles, always looking ahead.

Also, she needs to leave the message-culture behind. Fame is not egalitarian and people are slowly getting sick of hearing the important messages the celebrities dying to share. There are many other ways to deliver your message. And sometimes the message must come in obscurity. The on your face opinion sharing is now a normality. I think she thrives when she crosses the lines of the expected.
