NUTELLA 12,268 Posted Monday at 03:11 AM Share Posted Monday at 03:11 AM (edited) I jumped ship shortly after ARTPOP & ignored Joanne/the jazz albums but, for me... the rise/omnipotence of Shallow was the most disappointing turn of events. Aside from HATING the song itself (one of her most annoying to date), I was convinced by that point that she would never return to pop/dance music. Watching the GP become more enamored with her as I lost interest was so bizarre. I was happy for her, but also... couldn't gaf? Come 2020, I was excited for Chromatica, but then the music turned out to be... Chromatica 👀 I wasn't in love with Disease- song or video. But MAYHEM delivered the goods. So hardest moment? 2014-2025 lmao ⏩ Edited Monday at 03:14 AM by NUTELLA 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fame Monster 4,416 Posted Monday at 07:21 AM Share Posted Monday at 07:21 AM Honestly, my toughest time as a Little Monster was 2008—mainly because I didn’t even realize I was one yet. Picture 12-year-old me, a confused gay boy thinking: ‘Who is this Lady GaGa, why does she look like that, and who approved that name?’ 😅 Cut to 2009: Paparazzi at the VMAs and Bad Romance dropped, and suddenly my whole destiny was sealed. I went from confused skeptic to a fully-realized Monster overnight. To be honest, ever since becoming a Monster, I’ve found each era to be special in its own way. I’ve always loved the music as it came out. I don’t listen to ARTPOP, Joanne, or A Star Is Born as much anymore, but at the time, each of them felt special to me. And every now and then, I still end up stripping down to belt ARTPOP with my blue balls, throwing on a cowboy hat to stomp around to Joanne, or dragging my Bradley Cooper–lookalike boyfriend to a karaoke bar just to terrorize the room with our tragic duet of Shallow.

I had people at that catholic school I was at going in on her during "Judas" but that was iconic ngl Fans were going crazy every single day for ARTPOP there was no negativity. She was also very much loved by the GP, but she was also not understood during ARTPOP. I think the negativity mostly came from her personal life. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, if the ARTPOP era as a whole didn’t resonate with you specifically, then that’s another story and that’s ok. 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alberto95 15 Posted Monday at 08:01 AM Share Posted Monday at 08:01 AM (edited) I had a few: - The huge letdown of the Intel collab that after weeks of build up and incredible teasing turned out to be that atrocious Bowie's tribute mess; - Her performing in Baku didn't sit right with me; - Her working with very questionable people, from Terry Richardson to R Kelly and even Tom Cruise; - The Enigma residency was really cringy - That Nurtec ad...

She was also very much loved by the GP, but she was also not understood during ARTPOP. I think the negativity mostly came from her personal life. I’m sorry but that’s wrong, she was loved until up to Telephone mv. Her issues with the gp actually started back when she swallowed the rosary in Alejandro, I remember the shift vividly when I started hearing ppl saying horrible things about her at that time. Then, when she came up with the visuals for BTW, gp went hard calling her demonic following the events from the above and things only got worse after that. ARTPOP was both the epitome of overexposure that contributed the most for the hate coming from the gp imo, and also the Madonna comparisons aftermath, the Katycats and etc. You’re right when you say that fans were crazy for her, especially the real ones who survived all that mess, but public love was probably the least thing she was given during those times.

I mean people are welcome to their memories but factually, ARTPOP was a difficult and confusing time for fans because of the random announcements, silence and drama and that's where the nostalgia kicks in I see a lot of tweets and tiktoks about how ARTPOP was an amazing time to be a fan when really... no? it had fun moments and performances but lets not act like it was a great experience overall mother, what must i do? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
