Naturally she pays Mariah dust whose lambs are maybe the first fangroup 'name' I heard of. She's right that Gaga/Justin made it a thing tho.

Gaga and Justin were the one that fueled up the entire fanbase theme in social media eras.

So she didn't lie FOR ONCE

Lil Kim called her fans the Beehive since Notorious K.I.M, Tupac called his fans Soldiers and Thug Life Army, Eminem called his fans Stans, he actually created the term "stan" lol, so her saying that she's the "first rapper" to name her fans is just a narcissist lie lol

Not beyonce fans changing the E to Y in Beehive and taking credit.  Very on brand.

Gaga really popularized fan names I believe, but i guess from Western artists side? Not sure.. But she did a social media site for us, and then there is the Paws Up... so she really put Effort.

I would say let’s all grow old together but we are now

Keep Gaga’s name out of your f*cking mouth

[Guillaume Hamon 5,960]

I remember hearing that Elton John and the Who had fanbases with names back in the 70's.

[killme89 1,098]

I’ve been saying this for years and to see it coming out of her out of all people is wild lmao 

[Zaskar 3,734]

Not that other people didn’t have names for their fanbases before Gaga, but she was the one who took it on another level. Nicki is right for once lol
