Will I care about her as a person? Not in the slightest

that’s such a stupid question tbh let’s no pretend she’s not richer than all of us combined and more

Of course. Another zero on her bank account won't change who she is to me. She's already stupidly rich, that would make literally no difference. I'd only be side-eyeing some stupid, definitely money driven ideas (nurtec), but if she decides to start something new, idk, brand, fragrances, etc, If it's good quality, go for it.

she’s worth hundreds of millions of dollars already, a billion isn’t exactly that different

Yes because much like most billionaire celebrities she herself wouldn’t be a billionaire. Her assets would be worth a billion which includes; her percent of record sales, her percent of tour sales, her percent of Haus Labs sales, her percentage of her investments into tech and the medical field, her percentage of Little Monsters LLC etc etc.

The real people who have billions in money from pretty much one thing are people like Musk and the Rothschild family. And they have ACTUAL money in their banks: as in multiple. And their salaries are insane.

I know that's a distinction people like to make, and I get it, but she has the potential to liquidate all those assets at once and have a literal billion dollars so it doesn't mean much. There isn't a lot of difference.

Especially when the real value of many of those assets are "eh" at best. I mean, we all complain about how shady the music business is and she gets a huge chunk of her cash from it. Makeup? There's another one. Unknown investments that pile up to a billion+? It's shady at best.

You can't ethically make that kind of money, idc who you are or what you do :shrug:

Although I know there might be an outlier of employees around her who could be doing shady things I don’t think she herself would be shady and I’d like to think as a person she’d hate being a billionaire anyway. But until that day comes we won’t know. As a person I trust her to be a good person, although I can’t account for anyone else around her ofc (I mean look how long it took to get rid of Richy).

Also morally I don’t think it would be good if she liquidated all those assets, it’d be next to impossible anyway because that would mean firing every employee from ever one of her business ventures, selling off all the rights to her entire catalogue, selling off every piece of fashion history she’s collected including some of MJs stuff. That’s something Katy Perry would do but definitely not Gaga lol

DESTROY UR DISEASE

Just because she'd become a billionaire? Yeah, I think I still would, but I'd have to keep my eye on her

There would have to be some other things happening to stop me from supporting her. She's already heavily rich but I love her as a person and all the things that she stands for and she'd have to become a total opposite of that (like... ahem, we all know who:stalkga:) for me to really stop caring about her

I can smell your sickness I can...

I used to be able to say this with confidence but I just don't know anymore :bear: she's become so isolated from even people that used to be close to her and she expresses herself so differently. She didn't used to need a trophy to say "trans lives matter". And it just reads as "I'm tired and I don't care anymore. Give me my paycheck so I can go home".

And that would be an excusable attitude for any of us but when you have a platform and a fortune, personally, I feel it places certain obligations on you.

But I've sat on this soapbox long enough :icant: Idrc anymore either. If she wants to be a rich celebrity and create a bubble around her, cool. I won't be paying as much attention though.

For a long time I've considered the most valuable thing about her to be her fanbase anyway. I love the Monster community, she's just the catalyst to it.

I feel like she just doesn’t do things as publicly anymore, she works on projects behind the scenes with anonymity now. Which in the world of today works best because nowadays, if you’re out spoken you’re seeking attention or just baiting. But if you’re anonymous you’re doing nothing. 
 

Since her career was based off of people thinking she was attention seeking and only a portion of her fanbase growing with her and not crying for her to be like her old self. I think she’s doing the right thing as a 40 year old woman almost. Think about it this way; this is still her job and if you screamed trans lives matter at everyone you’d get fired or pulled in for making people uncomfortable. Sadly we live in a world now where everyone is “equal” in that sense, you can’t offend offensive people anymore which I personally disagree massively with.

Sounds like excuses :bear: you can't compare our world with the world of a celebrity that has the ear of millions.

But I'm not trying to change your mind either, we all have different perspectives. My lines are just a little harder than other's are.

Financially? Hello no, I’ve stopped supporting her like 10 years ago, I don’t even buy her music

And morally, I don’t really support her anymore. She’s been doing way too much, she created Haus Labs to become even richer and I find that quite disgusting to be honest

I can’t help loving her though

Very genuine question and not a dig or anything but WHY are you still online discussing her or participating still then if you don’t even have anything to do with her career anymore?

Like I said not a dig just interested
