I’m a bit confused why this thread even exists? This drag queen is literally who? Why do we care what they think? I mean they’re entitled to their opinion but this is the most relevant they’ll ever be, by trying to shade Gaga. :glamourpuss:

I'm going to be crucified for this, while I do think she is a decent actress, I just don't think she's best actress worthy this early into her career or for the roles she's done so far. 

It's just my opinion, and my first time stating it here tbh so I know there's a wave of people who might come for me but you'll just have to accept that not every person is going to think she's amazing at it.

I do think she'll continue to get multiple awards/nominations because there's a sensationalism that surrounds her but I don't quite see it even though I really want to.

You definitely have a right to your opinion and no one should come for you for it, that’s unwarranted.

I must say though and this is not directed towards you specifically, but why is it that with media be it acting or music there is a standard on what’s considered “good”. I don’t necessarily think a good actor must have great acting skills, or a good singer must be vocally stellar either. It’s entertainment after all, as long as the artist is able to bring joy to people and make them escape reality with their work, it’s done it’s job. Gaga may not have the best groundwork for acting but she sure as hell can command a scene. And hey, it might be as simple as freakin Lady Gaga is playing the role but it’s not her fault she’s charismatic and captivating. In hindsight Gaga didn’t rise to Fame because she was serving vocals or production, her personality carried her and that’’s far from a bad thing imo. All technically excellent artists wish they had her natural charm.

You're very right and I wish more people saw it from your point of view, the entertainment factor is a huge and that can allow us to appreciate different talents that otherwise would not be. 

I guess my gripe is that, if the category is best actress, I would argue it should go to whoever did the best job at being an actress. Now that does not necessarily mean only observing technicality but other factors as well. And going by those means, in my personal opinion there were better options for that category. I'm sure if the category was most entertaining it would be a different story.

Another thing to note, not that my opinion matters more than the next or that I'm 'qualified' in any sense. I think I prefer actors when they're more subtle, that can convey a more intricate spectrum of highs and lows. I think Gaga is great at the highs but I don't see the small things just yet, and those I think will truly make her a phenomenal actress.

Literally what? Have you seen HoG or are we seeing the same film? In HoG there are two scenes of her without any dialogue, those scenes show how strong she can be at small things. Even the pickiest movie fans of mine said those scene are masterful.

Dude it's an opinion, two people can look at the same piece of art and think two different things, I just don't think she's had time to hone her craft yet. 

You need to understand that just because you watched the film and thought one thing does not mean everyone agrees with you. And subtlety is not just not speaking, there's plenty subtlety to be had while speaking too.

The clearly pressed soul in this thread :awkney:

OT: She is one of the most forgettable queens that have been on Drag Race. literally nobody cares about her, let her remain in obscurity where she belongs.

We all have our opinion, but let's be real. Who knows more about ACTING... than ACTORS?? 🙂

Actors nominate actors. Gaga was  nominated by her fellow ACTORS for a SAG award, a BAFTA and an Oscar for ASIB. 

And a SAG award and a BAFTA for House of Gucci.

She's been nominated by the 99% (SAG, a labor union) AND the 1% (the Actors Branch of the Academy and the British Academy). 

Why is stan twitter so obsessed with the GRAMMYS?? Who's gonna win AOTY? Because Grammys are voted on by INDUSTRY professionals, not stan twitter! 🙂

So you're saying Gaga was nominated for and won multiple GRAMMYS because "there's a sensationalism that surrounds her?" 🤔

Because she's been like that from DAY ONE.

Let's see... The Meat Dress? Bleeding to death on stage? The VESSEL, aka Method Acting??

Dance Pop fans who LOVED her for her "sensationalism" are now pointing fingers... She didn't deserve all those nominations and awards! 

That's who she is! Is she supposed to tone it down just to win an Oscar?? Where's the fun in that? 

Careful what you wish for. 🙂
