Richy or Parris?

im ngl…the BTWB performances of Scheisse are great. The choreography, staging, lighting.. I think it is the best the song has looked on stage.

which is really shocking..because I expected Parris’s choreography for MAYHEM shows to EAT richys work…however..I do think Scheisse is the only cuntyslay&still holds up today choreography we got from richy.  And maybe Judas and MTN (he did those two also- right?) 

who do you think did Scheisse better?

Pronounced like “Balenciaga” . Emphasis on the “Ga”

The song looked AMAZING during JWT. But the version by Paris is iconic from start to finish:giveup:. So many memorable shots and moments in just over 2 minutes.

didn't Laurieann Gibson do that one (or at least partially)? 

She was still very much active during the BTW era. She did direct Judas with Gaga etc, and I'm sure she had already prepared some choreo for other singles/songs in case of ....

+ didn't she once shade Ricky for using her (unused) choreo ? I don't remember correctly

I think Richy's is better but I think Parris has a different obstacle in mind when choreographing for Gaga, which is accounting for her health and keeping the show from being too demanding, something Richy could literally never do for some reason. Parris' choreo (aside from Abracadabra in the music video) is simpler, less taxing, and easier to sing to. Just my opinion of course, but that's what I have noticed. As a whole production, Parris ate and ate whatever Richy was eating and did not leave a crumb. She knows how to CHOREOGRAPH girl.

Just as a secondary example, the way Parris handled Abracadabra for the show is literal genius. The spectacle during the first chorus (which is the hardest part of the choreo) MORE than makes up for her not dancing as much, and then coming down to do the cane choreo is amazing. She just knows how to balance things so well. Again, Richy could never. I still can't believe Gaga was doing that Applause choreo and singing as well as she had

The BTWB one is my favorite choreo, but Parris's choreo is honestly so refreshing Idk which one to vote.

I didn't like that much the changes they did to Scheiße during her first Coachella and JWT, tho.

me when i try to cope lmao, no, they started to crash creatively ever since Judas mv, and the BTWB was much later in 2012

Richy's was good because of the strobe. Those moves, as always, look hokey on their own so thanks lighting. Otherwise, the staging was boring, stiff and kinda underwhelming. Always felt that way. Plus she couldn't sing to it at ALL. So overall it was a low point in his choreo for me given how much potential the song has.

Parris's on the other hand I think is gorgeous staging that's very theatrical and dynamic and has interesting group movements and really, finally, felt like good representation of the song live. Plus, she can sing doing it. Like, im looking at this from the overall staging not just gaga. The other dancers look better, it looks better on stage, it uses props in a cool way. Scheiße finally felt like it was approaching a kind of iconic staging i was looking for since it was teased in the mugler show way back when
