Gaga's hardly the first pop star who went into acting...;)

But yes she would be great in Bridget Jones or any other romcom. Would be fun to see her play a villain as well!

I didn't say she was but let's be real, there was definitely a shift once ASIB was released. Now a lot of popstars are venturing into acting. It's become more common now that it ever was before. 

Same thing when Gaga arrived on the pop music scene, she brought something new and fresh to the industry and eventually everyone started adapting the same formula.  History repeats itself. 

you can serve it to me ancient city style...

I can’t think of any other pop star who has shifted to acting after A Star Is Born aside from this one rumor about Adele.

Ariana Grande, Selena Gomez, and Jennifer Lopez have returned to movie and TV in the last few years but they were actors before singers and acting professionally before Gaga was even acting. I can’t think of an actual example of a pop star following in Gaga’s footsteps after A Star Is Born. I suppose The Weeknd did. 

Lady Gaga doesn't owe us anything

This is true, but she is the last one to do it correctly and successfully.

I don't believe it. There have been rumours about this for a while now but it never actually happens. I really don't see Adele doing this. Her USP is she's completely music orientated in her output. She doesn't seem to have any desire to do anything else. She once even joked that even though she's got 3/4 EGOT wins, she'll never win a Tony because she hates musicals. She lives a private life devoted to Rich and her son now, she likes to live as normally as possible when she's not in album mode and I don't see her wanting to do long days shooting in a lot which involves lots of sitting around for hours, she'd see that as a complete waste of time.

The most obvious example in Alana Haim, who got that big breakout role in Licorice Pizza, which earned her loads of nominations across the board and a few wins and she's taking on another movie role now. Ed Sheeran's also done various acting work, as has Rita Ora, even Cardi B has landed an occasional role. And while Nicki hasn't done anything in acting for a while, she's clearly been trying to get casting directors interested in her with the amount of acting she puts in videos, most notably her video for Do We Have A Problem? Gaga really started something with these roles and if she gets major nominations for this role, expect to see more singers trying.

Before Gaga took on the role of Ally in ASIB, there wasn't any major pop girl or boy who had NOT acted in movies or TV shows. Britney, Justin Timberlake, Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Justin Bieber, Madonna, Whitney, Mariah Carey, 50 Cent, Eminem, Usher. Gaga didn't impact anything in the movie industry, she's just the only one to successfully transition into an A-list actress from an A-list music career.

Oh Gaga...look at all the doors you've opened. 

It seems like everyone wants their ASIB moment these days. 

 

Side-note: I could see her in a role like Bridget Jones lmao 

We do realize that there are so many music icons who went into acting years before Gaga right? Cher? Dolly Parton? Bette Midler? Madonna? Whitney Houston? Etc….
