Yeah she was really off, specially on that bald apple music guy interview with the pink hair

I thought about this interview too!! 

Just the way her shaky voice comes out of her nose in such a monotonous way. I don’t know what pill she was taking but she was taking a lot of it omg, it’s heartbreaking 💔

Love will do it to you. None of us know their relationship. We hardly know either of them as individuals. She could be cautious of how much she credits him, but she doesn’t have to, and it could very well be that he really is her soul mate and has been that pivotal to her own healing. I think some of us get too comfortable policing her image. 
PLUS we can’t pretend that her relationships haven't always held a lot of weight, which is normal. 

I'm not trying to police her image, I'm just speaking from my perspective as a long-time fan. It's disappointing to see such a strong and badass woman I've looked up to for years "reducing" herself like that.

I don't know why some of y'all are being weird. She and Michael have become soulmates and she really finds something about Michael that she probably couldn't see that from her past relationships. There's nothing wrong in giving credits and complimenting your life partner and you won't become not free by doing so.

Why are we being so nitpicky towards Michaela

I can see where you’re coming from, but saying she’s reducing herself by being outspoken about her fiancé can also come off slightly misogynistic as well. Women can be badass, strong, fierce and independent while still showing admiration/gratitude for their partner. Should she lie about what he’s contributed?

He's invading their para-social relationship space they've made up in their heads.

It’s not his contributions that bother me, it's the way the interview frames him as her savior and puts him almost on equal footing in HER profile by interviewing him alongside her. I didn’t really have any issue with him before, but the specific framing in this interview rubbed me the wrong way, that's all.

This was heartbreaking to watch.

I am a long time fan and watching my favorite artist decline but still continuing to pushing through, from ARTPOP to Joanne, Jazz, ASIB and Chromatica, I was in awe of her resilience and perseverance. Even when I watched the Joanne tour, I could tell there was this blanket of sadness. 

There was no Michael back then and yet she still managed to produce all those amazing works. That is something to be very proud of and no one can ever doubt her strength or work ethic. 

If Michael is who she needs to complete her world then she deserves it.

I have mixed feelings about this interview but she looks amazing and I’m glad she’s on the road to recovery

No shade, but the parasocial dissection and paternalism surrounding her mental illness is both distasteful and obnoxious atp lmao. Some of the way people talk about it online, imo, is why Gaga has said she doesn’t like talking about it because she’s afraid of people reducing her to her mental illness and I feel like I see Gaga’s fans in general do that a lot (psychosis jokes, dissecting and speculating about the specifics of her mental health during certain parts of her career). Her publicly discussing her mental illness isn’t permission for people to invasively dissect the moment to moment of her mental health journey.

Resilience is exactly what comes to mind when reflecting on those eras. Even if she was clearly struggling, the fact that she had the resolve to continue to create is really really admirable.

I do see where you’re coming from, but at the same time, aren’t these convos the core of it all? 

Like, why the hell would I stan Gaga if I can’t discuss and make parallels between her feelings and her art?

She’s always been all about using her art as therapy for herself and for the public and inspiring people to find ways of seeing life that gets them out of their coffin. Getting to know/explore more about her actual health allows us to put all those things into perspective, it’s more concrete as opposed to just a “fantasy”.

You’re absolutely right that it’s parasocial obviously I can only speak for myself, but I use her art AND what we know/think we know about her mental health to inspire myself on a daily basis, it’s like a fascinating lesson I try to learn from as I have no reference around me to help.

If Gaga was only making great-sounding music and beautiful visuals without all the depth and rational context, I would’ve probably died like 10 years ago.

There’s a difference between discussing her feelings and making armchair diagnoses and clinically pathologizing her behavior, imo. I think empathizing and being interested in her internal world makes sense (as I am as well), but there’s just something that makes me cringe and wince when people start dissecting her clinical psychology because, imo, that goes past empathic narrative intrigue into more invasive assumptions about someone’s mental state in a way that I would imagine would make most people uncomfortable or self-conscious if they were on the receiving end of it. Not necessarily saying you’re doing this, but I think there’s a clear distinction between empathizing with someone’s mental health journey and then using their disclosure to either analyze them in a way that feels borderline objectifying or to mock a very vulnerable disclosure by turning it into a meme.

I also liked seeing the genesis of him having some writing credits because I think fans forget that they’re a couple, they talk all the time, sometimes stuff they talk about ends up in songs, so Gaga credits Michael as an act of appreciation for helping her arrive at an idea (as opposed to whatever predatory **** some fans seemed to be imagining lol).

To me a big part of the suspicion about it is that she never did it before, even with Taylor despite they were together 5yrs and engaged too. But it seems like Michael is more supportive and involved so it makes sense

I need everyone to fully support my delulu fantasies that the rolling stone shoot was inspired by the winged headpiece and handclaw look gaga saw me wear in the front row at mayhem ball this past summer. no further questions please.
