rinasawachanta 3,403 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Well, I must say that I was very struck by the tone of yesterday's news story about Liza and Gaga's appearance at the Oscars. I was struck by the fact that Liza had used those words to refer to Gaga, not because either of them is a saint or an angel, but because they seemed particularly malicious. So I had no choice but to find out who the real author of these memoirs is, which is Michael Feinstein. The book is clear on this point: it's not Liza typing on her computer, it's an artificial construct created by Feinstein, an “old friend” of the artist. So far, so good. But who exactly is Michael Feinstein? Something smelled fishy, so I had no choice but to track down past news articles and publications in which this man had mentioned Gaga. And what did I find? To ABSOLUTELY NO ONE'S surprise, this man is an obsessive Gaga hater who has never missed an opportunity in the past to speak ill of her. Like any good OGH, there are times when he praises her (because, deep down, he admires her deeply) and others, mostly, when he simply talks ****: he has criticized her duets with Tony for sounding “synthetic,” referred to her jazz covers as a “stunt,” and even said that she is an Edith Piaf impersonator (?). Here, for example, is the post in which he celebrates Edith Piaf's birthday and shows how much he cares about Piaf by ending up talking about Gaga lol. https://www.facebook.com/MichaelFeinsteinOfficial/posts/birthday-legend-edith-piaf-1915-1963-arguably-one-of-the-most-recognizable-frenc/2337767559585811/ 13 1 8 1 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bim 786 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 When will people understand that all art is inspired and all art is subjective? Thank the lord this newer wave of pop stars and artists are trying to be a community and support each other. Edith Piaf was inspired by others. Madonna was inspired by others. Michael Jackson was inspired by others. We could play this game all day. With music. With film and television. With books. With paintings. Nothing is truly 100% original. Using writing Liza’s memoir to air out your salty opinions of Gaga is WILDLY more trashy than Gaga admitting to being inspired by/embodying those who came before her. 11 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wet Fire 8,229 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 (edited) You know you're an MPG when Liza Minnelli's memoirist ends up making the news of her memoir about you Kudos to Gaga for surviving in the industry that has been trying to dismiss and belittle her since the beginning of her career. She truly is a pioneer of showing how to bounce back time and again, and she's still going strong even after so many people in position of some power or influence try to bring her down.

Guest Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Or maybe that's what Liza told to Michael Feinstein as you know that book contains memoirs from her and they did not just write a whole book to "destroy" Gaga's career. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elijahfan 27,325 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 (edited) You gotta love how this fanbase is collectively spiraling as soon as something remotely negative is being said about Gaga... That memoir might have been ghostwritten, but I assume this is based on conversations that were had with Liza and that she had final say on the published product. I think we're the ones being obsessed here. Let's not make this a bigger deal than it is and move on.
