Because she's above all criticism?

No, because your passive agressive attitude is unwarranted. "I shouldnt have expected better"... get over yourself tbh

[RainOnGaga 639]

why don't they post about every show she does? Missed Opportunity. They are yet to talk about the opening show on the social media.

"Majority of her audience listens to Taylor swift" - I'm willing to bet you're way off base here.

You'd lose the bet, lol. Like I said, her audience consists, largely, of casuals. Hardcore stans represent a very small number of the amount of people who consume her work. Such is the truth about every mainstream artist.

Most of her streams, views, etc, come from casual people, not stans. Here on GGD, we're not the actual majority of her audience. 

I'm a stan and I'm indifferent towards 99% of the pop acts that are discussed on the daily on this forum. But I do not represent the majority of Lady GaGa's listeners. 

Most of her listeners DO enjoy Beyoncé, and Ariana Grande, and Sabrina Carpenter, etc. The Lady GaGa SUPERFAN might not find Taylor appealing in general, but the general audience does, and GaGa's biggest demographic... is the general audience, because she's a mainstream act, and both share the same genre. 

When I listen to GaGa on Spotify, I get things like Charli XCX, Taylor Swift or Chappel Roan recommended next, not The Prodigy, Sopor Aeternus or Björk. Her audience is the pop audience, and it overlaps with Taylor's.

Is the tour merch true to size or slightly oversized or?

[Gardevoir 9,927]

Is there any link with not so poor quality where I can watch the whole thing?

SHE STILL DOES THE NOTHING BURGER PERFECT CELEBRITY PERFORMANCE IN A SANDBOX JFC WHY JUST MAKE IT YOUR GODDAMN INTERLUDE IF YOU CAN'T PERFORM IT

It's such an insult to this amazing song to just continue to wiggle around in a sandbox. Just incorporate more of the interlude into the "escape" or something. Making this the entire Perfect Celebrity performance AGAIN is so insulting.

Ugh. I shouldn't have expected better.

Well its one thing to complain. But you've got something really toxic going on about the way you communicate. Just from this post alone, you're either very immature/very insecure. The caps lock makes it all basically.

Was there any city merch at all? The city hoodies were my favorite Chromatica Ball merch and I'm still a bit bummed my dumb ass thought "Oh I'll pick one up after the show" while sitting in line looking at them the whole day  of course they had sold out afterwards

1) You're seeking attention, therapy is a great start.

2) It's fine if you don't have taste and are unable to appreciate art. Good news for you: there are plenty of other pop stars to stan if you want a specific type of generic performance movement.

3) this song was made in response to people with negative opinions like this, so jokes on you 

and lastly, there is still time to change opinions. I highly recommend having an open mind. xoxo

I recommend therapy for learning methods for emotional regulation and expectation setting. We all have mental health struggles, but some of us don't feel the need to post them in ALL CAPS RANTS on social media. The sandbox actually works better in the arena than the stadium because she’s looking up at the ceiling to her clone on the screen and it was more animated than the previous rendition. Would I love for her to simply rock out to the song? Yes. But I understand her vision and need for physical breaks so she doesn't wear out at the top of the show.

Your comment evokes such a lack of artistic understanding and emotional intelligence. Please get help or get offline for a day or two.

“Nothingburger PC performance” - meanwhile, it’s one of the most theatrically interesting and cinematically framed tour performances of her career. I have to laugh

No, it isn't. We don't always have to speak with hyperbole. I was drunk when I ranted about that, and I still stand by it. It's a bonkers "performance" to have

“We don’t have to speak with hyperbole” after ranting like that is wild work lmao. But it’s alright that you don’t see the vision, sister

“Why is this so boring” - a solid 30% of her fans when she isn’t doing standard pop choreo 

[Ma Ma Pa Pa Pa 987]

I can't believe how while all of us at opening night were having the time of our lives, the whole Coldplay thing happened
