Gaga Myths, True or False?

[Linus Gaga 8,389]

Ok just random thought but do fans and media just exaggerated story into these myths or they were actually true?

I can think of the “her pants and shoes got stolen so she performed half naked” thing, i am pretty sure that never actually happened? She just wore bodysuits and nude shoes. I think while the Monster Ball 1.0 wig was true though?

Also the “she only had a cheap wig and a dream” narrative. She did wear wigs and extensions, but they were actually decent quality and styled on purpose. It wasn’t like Party City wig like some fans said. And she definitely wasn't too broke?

Anymore of these stories you can think of?

1. She was on drugs during the ARTPOP era.

I keep seeing this over and over again when this is (mostly) false. The Abramovic method was an "accidental" rehab for her, which caused her to quit smoking for three months. I said "mostly" because she started smoking pot again in November, but she was able to moderate it way more than before. Yes she still drank, and yes she got drunk on stage at places like SXSW lol, but it wasn't as bad as it was before the era.

2. Lady Gagas voice was naturally deep at the beginning of her career.

This is not true and performances prove it. People look at the AOL sessions and think her voice was always like that, but it wasn't. Her vocal chords became severely damaged by that point. It could've been drugs or bad vocal technique (I personally believe the former though I can see both), but her voice was not naturally deep.

3. Joanne was a sell-out record.

This is false. It was just the timing. Lady Gaga always talked about being inspired by Bruce Springsteen and Sting, so this album made sense. On top of this, at the time she wanted to abandon the whole "Lady Gaga pop star" aesthetic due to her trauma, and this is why she made a record that (mostly) abandoned pop stylings. Yes, I am aware that Bobby Campbell said that he wanted people to focus more on her singing so he put a focus on that, but I truly think that was more related to performances as opposed to the content that was being put out. (Cheek to Cheek was a similar coincidence of timing since we know that Tony Bennett had wanted that album since 2011.) I just don't like that people say Lady Gaga made Joanne to please people because that implies she is a sell-out, which is far from the truth. Making a country inspired album as Lady Gaga of all musicians was an experimental choice too.

There are more, but these three are the biggest ones I see a lot that are also the easiest to explain lol.

During my exchange with Party, I was talking about the period when she recorded ARTPOP, so before she met Abramovic and during the recording of ARTPOP she was on drugs.
