money :yennefer:

at the end of the day, she's a rich person who's going to remain rich. everything she does and has done is going to be for money

she may be more in touch with the priviledge her status and wealth provides her than most celebs and more likely to give to charity but it's always going to be about money

mother, what must i do?

1. Did you care enough to read an actual movie review before writing this dissertation? Literally all of them say that this movie is nothing like the first one and there’s no military propaganda involved this time. There’s a reason why it’s shaping up to be the most critically acclaimed movie of the year. Even snooty left leaning publications are giving it 5 stars. 

2. Gaga is not banned in China.

3. Scientology is not any worse than other mass religions like Christianity and Islam. Conservative leaders from those religions are literally trying to ban abortion and murder people from the LGBT community. So according to your logic she should stop working with everyone that follows a religion?

lol, may I say you sound a bit passive agressive? Yes I have seen reviews, and seen the promo and trailers as well. I put in sources and links that support where my thoughts are coming from, cause it is indeed propaganda. 

As I said, Gagas music was banned at one point due to meeting Dalai Lama Source:  https://www.nbcnews.com/news/asian-america/lady-gaga-banned-china-following-dalai-lama-meeting-report-n601051 

I talked about Gagas personal status and opinion on Psychology and antidepressants and how that doesn't match with Tom Cruises opinion, mostly formed by scientology. I didn't want to start a discussion about religions/cults.

I think you're overstating. She does lots of things for money, i.e  various endorsements. And just on that, there's nothing wrong with it. It's work. Most of us work for money.

But I don't think she does everything for money. I think she's competitive. She wants a hit song in a hit movie. She wants Oscars. She wants to be successful for its own sake. She has drive. The art comes from that drive as much as anywhere. She'll get paid for HMH, but I don't think she just did it for money. And I'm glad she did it. I love the song.

i mean i'm fine with her chasing coin, she's had a few hypocritical sell out moments like when she performed for that private russian wedding but that is her job at the end of the day

she believes in making art and showing off her own art but she also loves money and success. the whole anti-money act was a good illusion back in 2010/13, i think that's why a lot of fans seem to hold her to some high hypocritcal standard whenever she does something like a make up line or a "pro-military" song (i love HMH btw) but i've just accepted that she's rich and wants to remain rich

I mean Gaga has always been super American in her politics and has supported war criminals and sh*t politicians and rubbed elbows with them, not to mention that she supported a colonial state, so I don't find it weird that she'd be on board with anything related to the American military (idk anything about the first movie or this one and I frankly don't care but I'm just basing my reply on what you wrote). 

Soft, soothing, and succulent

What comes to Gaga wanting to work with Tom Cruise, maybe she wants to work with people who in her opinion needs the most help and who could learn something from her. :hor: Chinese people need some Gaga in their lives, too. :classy:

Yep. 'Music not the bling' keeps getting brought up, but the full line is 'I try to sell myself but I am really laughing, because I just love the music not the bling. The music not the bling'. So what's she saying ?Yeah I work for the bling, but it's the music that I love. There's another thread around at the moment about Elon Musk. I wouldn't want to be in that guy's head for all the money in the world, but Gaga's head is a different matter.

Can I also point out that Scientology, as a religion, hasn't committed genocides, colonisation, or mass political manipulation, murder & blackmail?

It's a crock, but all religions are, just that scientology is one of the less bloodthirsty.

Just because people used to be naive/dumb or powerless enough to let Christianity and Islam take over doesn't mean we should do the same with Scientology. I'm not sure about genocide or colonisation but if you think they're above political manipulation, murder and blackmail you should do a little more research.
