Is it confirmed by now that Ricky is fully out of the picture with Gaga?

So the Dive Bar Tour and Joanne 2 were basically cancelled because Richy hadn’t prepared the choreo for the Joanne World Tour omg

What's Joanne 2?

That’s me calling it this way, but it’s the new songs she wanted to debut at the Dive Bar Tour in 2017, and apparently it was still a possibility in her mind later that year as she’s talked to fans about it backstage at the JWT (that’s how we’ve heard about Frankensteined)

But honestly the worst part is that she had to rehearse for the tour in no time, probably sending her to hospital (Brazil, I’m devastated)

I absolutely loved Joanne World Tour but yeah, there were moments where the choreography was a bit rushed/repetitive

It sounds like she’s operating under the pretense that Richy is still the choreographer/artistic director. I wonder how she feels now that he’s gone.

She says that the Rolling Stones story only happened because they tried to go through the proper, professional channels to resolve this situation, but first, there wasn't anything resembling an HR department accessible to them, and then, once they had finally been able to talk to people who could resolve it, their answer was "We got your information, but you won't be informed of our decisions going forward." And then when nothing happened, the dancers involved just assumed that was their answer. 

Which is more or less what I had guessed had happened, but it's nice to confirm. I remember replying to someone on here, where they said "Maybe they should look for legal action instead of this publicity stunt" and my response had been "What if they tried to do the legal action, but there wasn't anything illegal, or at least provable, that they could report, so this was the last resort."

well at least from what we see now the context has completely changed, and that resonates not only with Gaga's work but also with her excitement about it

Yeah this was definitely recorded a while back before Richy was gone

Good question, as Sloan seems to be under the impression that he's still working for Gaga. Not sure when this interview was filmed, or how interested she is in Gaga's current projects, but I'm really glad that things have changed now. At the end of the day, dancers were heard, it's just a shame it took that long for anything to happen.

It would be really great to see these OG dancers come back for the next tour, that would send a great message.

So much tea

I think it’s super important that everyone on this site watch this video. I know for me, I am SO glad as a stan that Gaga isn’t to blame here. I had my meltdowns, but I’m glad of where we are today. Richy is out and that’s what matters. With this definitely being recorded before Disease probably, I wonder how Sloan feels now

Yeah thats why I asked, because both Sloan and the interviewer mentioned that the current dancers are still working under Richy. I think Gaga did the right thing but silently and without contact to protect herself from a lawsuit? I dont know but im happy she did the right thing, and I hope she goes beyond just doing the right thing and hire the dancers again.
