it's interesting to read how positive and optimistic they were about her

I thought in the early days she was seen as a joke internet star who is just copying Madonna

I remember specifically that it was when she became mega famous, she was heavily compared to Madonna yes but wasn’t accused of outright copying her or getting hate until late 2010 when Alejandro became a single. Because people forget social media as we know it was very much in its infancy when she debuted. Twitter was barely a thing and people weren’t exactly hate posting about her that much.

the actual instigator and a  big turning point as well was Rolling Stone called her The Queen of Pop on a cover in 2009, and to this day she’s the only female popstar to be actively compared to Madonna as an equal and not as her junior like Britney was for example.

However I’m sure PawsDownLittleMonsters became a thing in 2010 lol

reminded me of how she suddenly stops when Katy Perry says Gaga is like the next Madonna but better

this makes me CREASE with laughter because Gaga pays her absolute dust now, I've noticed that's why her fans don't like Gaga nowadays (since they're hardly in the same calibre or league anymore) because Katy constantly watches or praises her and Gaga just doesn't give af lol

like a comment mentioned even in this video Katy says "I'm a big fan" and Gaga replies "nice to meet you" rather than "me too" or something similar

Really fascinating to read those commenrs from way back when, before anyone knew her or had a chance to decde if they loved her or hated her, before there was any bs about her being a man or a satsniat or blah  ... just a song by a new artist and people loved it.

Omg reading the comments. 

People were talking about Lollapalooza 2007, her then upcoming San Francisco pride performance, and begging to know when the song would come out in certain places. It still strikes me as odd that the UK didn't get Just Dance until the end of December 2008...

The levels … the spiritual holograms of the haus kingdom’s future … truly the people’s princess in the royal courts of pop justice …

 

“I tend to hate when popstars sing about fame, unless the circumstances absolutely allow it (Michael and ‘Scream,’ Britney and ‘Piece of Me‘), but for Lady Gaga I will make an exception”—the echelon of exceptional iconic status recognized upon emergence … it‘s real, it was made real now: then.

 

“Ok so I was shopping today in a store called Express here in America. […] After the song went of [sic] they were aking [sic] who sings it and nobody knew and I came in and saved the day all told them it was Lady Gaga.”

“Lady Gaga: Turning ordinary mall adventures into something extraordinary.”

 

And this ^ … ^ is The Fame.

Oh man I remember that. I was not a member, but I did read this thread back then when she debuted when I started looking into her.

Beautiful Dirty Rich is the song that drew me into Gaga's music (though technically, her Gagavisions is what drew me in the most).

Just Dance never hit me the same way BDR did.

I agree! BDR is something special, both haunting and fab.

So true, the haunting and fab echoes the Paparazzi prelude feel in a way … BDR still feels quintessentially Gaga … something about it just immediately struck a chord to the core (it was the first song of hers I’d ever heard, though, so full disclosure on implicit bias) …
