Haiydar 317 Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 38 minutes ago, LastNight said: I understand, but I mean...the Telephone video is pretty in your face, arguably more so than a simple post on Instagram in terms of how the promo spots impact the art: they disrupt the video itself, but I can scroll past an Instagram post easily. I think a lot of it is also to do with the way we consume content nowadays: everything happens on social media. Personal life, promotional posts, ad campaigns, magazine covers, behind the scenes content etc. all get clumped together in one spot. Artists' entire promo plans are based around posts on Instagram and building hype on socials, but brand contracts also require social media posts as part of the deal. So maybe it's all happening in the same place now, but I'd argue that brand partnerships are not actually any more prevalent in her career than they always have been. And even if they are, I think there's a logical explanation for it as I expressed in my initial post. Would it be nice if ads were counter-balanced with more personal content? Sure, I would love that and it's a shame we don't get much of that anymore, although she has made her feelings about social media pretty clear, so it shouldn't come as a surprise that we don't. It's also unfortunate that a lot of what she had planned for Chromatica was spoiled, so we've also been in a drought of non-sponsored music content too. I get the frustration, but I just think when you step back and look at the big picture it makes sense, and it's tiresome seeing some fans be so dramatic about her deals when she's been working this way for more than a decade. Either way it’s not like any of the brand deals she’s included in the music videos have disrupted or overshadowed the concepts: stupid love was shot on iPhone but it’s not like there was actually one in the video. Rain on me was sponsored by Adobe I think. 911 had only a second showing the LG promotion so most likely this fashion film will somehow fit with the video. A bit like bad romance where they’re are bottles of alcohol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate that she wastes Nick Knight. In 911 the LG Promo was cringe but acceptable, but I hate to admit, as a fan i move further away if she is doing this blantantly promo constantly. The theme of duality of Lady and Gaga is so amazing as a concept and was so wasted for a stupid commercial for a watch? And then she promotes unhealthy cookies in a pink package and that's it? And wants to reason it by throwing in the word "Kindness"? And after she's done she's promoting alcohol for the rich? But telling stuff like "I want my concerts tickets to be accesable for everyone" and "I don't want to sell myself, I don't wanna make fragrances" Gurl, I love you but beeing a stan is getting an aftertaste for me I don't like... She promoted more products in the "Telephone" music video alone than she she did in the past 5 years, including a mayonnaise brand and a dating website. Did you have a problem with that?

Karen Smith 10,026 Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Can can someone has problem with the fact that she's promoting things? It's cool for me as long as she cares about her music and now, she apparently does Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can it be a waste? It's literally her concept of ARTPOP, and she's getting her artistry to a wide audience, while endorcing a product she finds suitable and raising money for her music and CHARITY. The 100-ish exclusive Dom Perignon bottles will be sold within a closed circle of people and the earnings will go to BTW foundation.

FFXIV WhiteMage 5,926 Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 The Little Managers that only sees the superficial stuff are coming out again? Of course they don’t care that Gaga literally garnered millions to help fight a pandemic. Released a Grammy winning album, highly acclaimed MV and is starring on a film with A-list actors.

Did you have a problem with that? Also I think these are the times when people should especially not be judging her for making brand deals since she can't really make money from tours etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you have a problem with that? I'm agree that she did promoted products in her past videos BUT, it was never a whole collaboration for two years. It was for her music videos not for a whole campaign for a brand. Her the music will be just use for the collab and maybe even for an ad for TV, just like Scheisse for Fame or SFA for Voce Vita. So you can't say it's the same case. And they clearly insisted of the fact that it's a collaboration, not a new music video where she will just use a bottle of champagne. But we'll see after all.
