Bumping into Gaga: how would you react hypothetically?

[SlowLoris 958]

The scenario you've given is SO cali omg...

In all seriousness, I recently met one of my idols (Kim Gordon).  She seemed really annoyed with me when I asked her a question and pretty much snubbed me/cut me off while I was speaking.  It stung a lot because i lowkey worship her art, but I also realized in that moment how naïve/delulu i had been to think that I would be the fan she'd want to spend time talking to.  She's also 71 and it was midnight outside the venue of her show... She seemed ready to go back to her hotel 

So to put it short, if I saw Gaga i would probably either VERY subtly acknowledge her or just move along in order to avoid the pain of potentially being snubbed again.

I mean to be fair, I feel like Gaga would be a lot nicer than that. She wouldn’t snub a fan. The closest I’ve seen her being annoyed with a fan was when one of them kept hitting/poking her head with a rolled up poster to get her attention during the ARTPOP era. 

I don’t know much about Sonic Youth; but those interviews they did with Nardwuar really left a bad taste in my mouth.

"Oh wow, hey girl! You good?"

[The Ew from Judas 529]

Simple answer

I’d ask her to take an awkward prom photo with me

[southpaw773 2,398]

I would scream LG7

[PMM 3,170]

I would slowly come up to her and thanked her, as a person and a fan and leave her alone. I wouldn't even take a pic with her

[GagaGame 3,077]

I would whisper this:

"Hey, I'm a big fan. I've got a question: is Frankensteined on LG7"

If the answer is yes, I'll tell her "Okay thank you GodGa for ur work xoxo enjoy that italian food bestie luv u"

If the answer is not, I'll ask her "Would you consider remaking it for LG7?"

If she says yes, I'll tell her "Yaaas remaking mama weerk it for da monstrosities tell michael and bobby that yall just earned some authentic pizza from italia"

If she says no, I'll hide in her trunk, and when I enter her house, I'll search for that damn USB that has an "LG5 songs, demos, instrumentals, studio recordings, etc" tag and leak it

Oh and ask her for a discrete photo xx besties forever 

[Eggs 2,678]

I'd very discretely greet her then take a sample of her blood

[Chromanne 285]

I'm too shy I'd probably leave her alone and continue shopping 

Maybe I wish to calmly approach her and say "Excuse me Ma'am, it's nice to meet you. How are you?" If she responds and continues to interact with me I'll ask for a selfie if she didn't mind. If she said no, I'll just nod, smile and say "it's ok, have a good time" and continue with my shopping. 

For these things to happen, I have to go past her bodyguards so... 

[Schwerk 7,001]

I would flash a little paws up at her and a smile when no-one else was looking. 

I tend to stay pretty calm and collected in these situations unless they are chaotic with paparazzi or lots of yelling fans involved, that can be pretty overwhelming. Gaga has a very calm presence.

I wouldn't bother her

They say "never meet your idols". I'd read too deep into a semi annoyed expression or if I said something stupid  that'd be all I would ever think about when listening to her music from then on

If/when I meet her I want it to be in a professional setting where a conversation can actually be held. I have many MJ questions to ask her after she raided those LA museums for his stuff
