I find it quite disrespectful actually. So is the problem this particular case or the fact that he’s still alive? Because tribute acts for people still alive are common, and Gaga’s been to a a few (Stevie Wonder, Sting, Carol King). I get that in this specific instance it may seem a bit weird, but it only makes sense considering she would’ve made everything about him anyway (if you’ve been paying attention to the promo through the era she always focuses on him). And at the end of the day she’s still going there to promote songs off the album, so it’s not like she’s going full 2016 mode. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it is weird for sure, but I'm sure they've talked about it with Tony himself a couple years ago when he was doing better, to make sure his wishes are heard and respected Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Face 6,236 Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 It's not weird at all guys. Music can bring back memory. I think it's wonderfull to give Tony some distance from his disease and bring him back to his career for one last time. It's an honor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sneaky Oliver 21,993 Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 The tribute is not weird at all. As someone said before, people deserve to be celebrated while they’re still alive! I can’t think of how Gaga actually cam do that, I mean, it takes a lot of strength to say goodbye to an idol, to kind of end her idol and friend’s career. I’m sure it’s a bittersweet feeling.

To you. The majority of America did not concern themselves with Tony when he was healthy and performing. He was an older jazz cover artist. His condition now is no different nor more significant than that of the millions of individuals afflicted across the world today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
