i mean she also has a baby now so i doubt it's more different priorities than displeasure at haus labs

Both are absolutely viable in tandem …

Again, just going off of optics, that a new mother would have to effectually move through an entire crisis communications campaign to rectify a diversity / inclusion issue, likely invites some sense of displeasure in direct relation to time and energy spent away from one‘s child, to deal with an issue that contrasts specifically from your core brand identity … for a company that has existed long enough to have established protocols when it comes to practicing and communicating your core identity …

And, that Gaga‘s first personal public statement (amidst a cultural backdrop that is a literal minefield of identity tensions) on behalf of a company she founded to disrupt the existing beauty industry standards (in direct context of diversity, inclusion, and representation therein), was a public apology for operating in direct contrast to the company‘s core values … again, was likely displeasing, at this juncture in a company that she has devoted as much of herself to developing and evolving …

To your point, as a working mother, Gaga‘s first personal public statement on behalf of her own beauty company, would ideally be communicating a positive development that shows how this company has evolved into a compass guide for the future of the beauty community her daughter will experience … but, to be fair, that‘s just a hypothetical consideration—maybe Gaga wouldn‘t want to make any personal public statement while she‘s enjoying her early months of motherhood

Again, this is all just a wall of “who asked you anyway” observations … but/and, as always, I much appreciate your perspective, as well

Claiming to love the LGBTQI+ community, yet refusing to release more singles and music videos? What about gay guy music video nights? SMH she’s a closeted homophobe.

I was expecting a lot more dumb takes in this thread like "she said she was born this way but she has fillers!!!" or "she says fame makes her suffer but The Fame was about wanting to be famous!!!". But I see that people have grown up and understand nuances now :golfclap:

BUT if we use nuance, that little thing people lack nowadays, she was actually talking in the context of her music the first time she ever brought it up “I don’t really do this for money, or fame I do this for the art.”

She made several statements to say she didn't care about money in general, not only in the context of her art commercial success.

If she truly meant it entirely monetarily she would’ve not been famous and still just making music on the lower east side.

I mean she could chose the big commercial music act path then secretly be giving the vast majority of her earnings to charities... :firega:

But the moment you work with one of the worst mega company on earth ( seriously the more you check their head company the more you see the vilest scandals ) then you're doing such harm that even giving away your "fee" seems possibly a contradiction. :gum:

Sis look up the definition of feminism: it’s about equality, not hating men. 

those are Gaga words, not mine.

"I'm not a feminist. I hail men, I love men, I celebrate American male culture — beer, bars, and muscle cars."

"I guess I'm a feminist. I am a feminist." -on Larry King show

I think she also said it in that interview where she was in a black room with a guy on a laptop. I believe that was in 2010 as well. I think she just educated herself so much more in those years. Even women were grossly misinformed about what being a feminist was and it was seen as a misandrist position at that point. It's a quick turnaround but I'm glad she did. I never liked what she said originally. She sounded like she was trying to be 'not like other girls' or a pick me even though that wasn't what she intended.

Someone did a thread here on this but singing about wanting a guy like John Wayne kind of symbols a very macho type not into glam.


Shes said how much she hates money early in her career and doesn’t live lavishly.  Lately that’s kind of a contradiction 

 

Edit: kind of see this has been touched upon

I haven’t watched this one in ages, so I’m not sure of the time stamp / reference right off, but is this the interview you’re thinking …

Yes… I think she’s really harmed her legacy of political activism by saying NOTHING about Palestine. It’s a huuuuuuge **** stain on her legacy and at this point too little too late. 

Thank you for posting this, I've been saying this for so long too. It's absolutely shocking and also embarrassing. She wouldn't lose ****. Ariana is out there with her make up brand and tour she has mentioned Palestine so has charli xcx!!!!! We all know why she hasn't but I don't feel like getting banned saying it here

How has nobody mentioned her perfumes? 
 

She discontinued products that everyone loved and were selling really well and went on a whole year and a half of “I don’t want to sell things, I’m not that type of celebrity etc” to having 2 years of non stop ads, sponsorships, and pushing things nobody wanted her to. And it didn’t stop until it all blew up in her face with the nurtec fiasco. 
 

Also, another contraction was how much she hated Hollywood and celebrity culture only to move to Hollywood and take part in said celebrity culture 

Yupppp she became everything she said she wouldn’t :spin:  she virtually said nothing about trans rights at all this year either. We are in the most dark time too. She’s silent
