Someone is currently on the most aggressive and up close & personal campaign that even Harvey would have never dreamed of, and all those who slammed Gaga for campaigning are cheering her on. who?

That's all I gotta say. None of this really matters though, which is the good news. The thing is, the only cringe thing she said during this campain is when she said great things about Ridley's work o' HOG. The flies and all is literally nothing special, it's like a conversation you'd have everyday with your colleagues at work, come on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing crazy about that story, it's something smart people can do very easily Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIM820 1,770 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 My biggest problem was that sooo many people accused her of lying and making fun of her when she didn’t get the nomination. Then literally that next week Robert Pattinson says in an interview that he’s lied in interviews to make them fun since he became famous… and people thought it was funny and ate it up! I’m not judging him for doing that because idgaf (I also find it funny that I REMEMBER CLEARLY when people said he didn’t shower and turns out he made up that rumor! Lol) but woah what a double standard that was. Anyways this is a moot point anyways because she was 100% the sixth spot within the acting body branch of the academy so whether she did or didn’t doesn’t matter. Only the f*gs and critics on Twitter had something to say about it, yet somehow she got nominated for all the critic awards. Hm. Go figure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I feel like her "new reputation" was inevitable, because Gaga can just say "Hello haha" on Twitter and make headlines for it But for real, if you train a little bit (not speaking about YOU specifically, but people in general), you can use your mind and breath to fake your emotions and actually feel them intensely, or take your mind out of your body. It's not even only psychological, it's also physical, as you stimulate different hormones that regulate your feelings. Gaga is very used to it in her everyday life, because 1) she dissociates and 2) she has fibromyalgia and works on it on a daily basis not to feel the pain, as mentionned in her interview with Oprah in January 2020 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When people say Gaga over-campaigned, they don’t mean the actual number of events she attended but normally what she’s said at these events. The board deciding who wins the award are hard to please; they want you to campaign but they also want it to feel natural. It was repeating lines like “there could be a hundred people in the room” and Gaga saying she got chased by flies that comes across unnatural to the board and causes her to lose the award. It’s a shame, Gaga’s just a grown up theatre kid who loves some exaggeration and coming out with some craziness. It’s who she is naturally but unfortunately it rubs the boards the wrong way. There isn’t a board who decides at the Oscars. It’s actually one of the award ceremonies that is vote for vote.

THE BOARD?? You're funny. Did you just make that up? "The board DECIDING who wins the award?" 😂 FYI, Oscar noms are voted on by individual voting members of the Academy's Actors Branch (1,336 members)! The Academy's Board of Governors WOULD HAVE LOVED for Spider-Man: No Way Home, Tom Holland, Gaga, Ariana (Best Original Song), etc., to be nominated, for ratings reason, but it's not up to them! One of the Academy's governors said earlier this month that ABC had threatened to CANCEL the Oscars telecast if ratings don't improve this year. The 2021 Oscars averaged 10.4 million viewers. (CBS' Adele One Night Only concert special drew 11.7 million viewers in Live+3.) Oscar nominations are voted on by members of the Actors Branch. Members return their ballot to the accounting firm (PwC). The accountants count the ballots. The top 5 vote-getters become the nominees! It's ENTIRELY up to individual voting members. There is no "nominations review committee." No "longlisting jury." No gatekeepers. It's fine to drag Gaga, but do a little research next time! 😂 she/her/hers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The truth is, Gaga didn't do anything that was not expected of the glamorous star of a big studio film. She appeared on a few covers, gave a few interviews, went on a couple of talk shows, and that was pretty much it. All that happened was that she said a few silly thing that went viral. That's not campaigning - it's called influence. You know what's over-campaigning? Asking all your Oscar-winning friends to host "industry" screenings, WHILE Oscar voting was ongoing. This actually happened this year, and no one on Film Twitter has called this person out, because they like them. This pisses me off, because this is the kind of narrative that sticks. Melissa Leo is still paying for a single campaign ad she took out eleven years ago. Hell, even Kate Winslet still gets mocked for her so-called "desperation" just because she was honest about her ambitions. We can't control what people want to say or think but the least we can do is not help them spread the slander. No, Gaga did not over-campaign. I think she UNDER-campaigned... 🤔 She's done very little IN-PERSON campaigning, industry screenings and Q&As, and missed at least one screening/Q&A late in the Oscar season because she had a cold. Bad timing. Gaga showed up at most industry events and award shows during the ASIB campaign (Governors Awards, SAG Foundation dinner, Golden Globes, Critics' Choice, SAG Awards, etc.) all of which were canceled this season or POSTPONED (to AFTER the Oscar noms were announced) due to COVID. Remember: HoG is Gaga's second movie. She doesn't have many acquaintances, much less friends, or friends of friends, in the Actors Branch. It's not like she's a veteran actor, have done 70 movies, or was the lead in a DGA-winning movie or a PGA-nominated movie, you know? I think there's nothing wrong with an actor campaigning until the last minute, doing screenings/Q&As in Santa Barbara and Malibu during Oscar voting weekend. All they need is a couple hundred votes! It's no different than a city council candidate showing up at backyard barbecues, pressing the flesh. Every vote counts. 🙂 she/her/hers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
