Brainiac 10,940 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 (edited) Just because people don't like an image doesn't mean they are immature, spoiled or brats. It's called opinion, bb. We don't have to love everything she does. I agree with you. Of course they're allowed to have an opinion and not like it. However, it's the way they're going about expressing that opinion that I have the problem with saying things like "It's hideous. What the f*ck is she thinking?" Stuff like that. I just find it really unnecessary and spreading too much negativity. Just say you don't like it and move on instead of acting like it's the end of the world. Also, I'm not directing this at EVERYONE who said they don't like it, only the ones who were acting the way I described above. I normally never voice my opinion about stuff like this but it's happened too many times now and I just felt the need to finally speak up.

liberacorpus 5 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Loving the picture, everything fascinates me. It's interesting that you all don't like it, I think that's because she doesn't look attractive in it. People have a hard time dealing with stuff when it's not "beautiful" in the media-perpetuated sense of the word. When she was naked on the chair giving body with natural hair, everybody lived for it. Now, this is the exact same person, looking different and everybody's reaction is harsh as f*ck. Truthfully, this is why I love Gaga and I think that's what really sets herself from any other popstar. She's not afraid to look "ugly", to not look her best, to challange our views on beauty. I think that's the problem some monsters and the GP have with the Born This Way era, tbh. She didn't look "attractive". Remember when she schooled that interviewer recently because he was talking about her ass at the VMAs? Saying that is was funny that people were only noticing her features now that she had natural hair/make-up and minimal fashion. I think people need to deal with a different kind of fashion. Fashion doesn't need to be luxurious fabrics that cinches the waist and follow a woman's body. In my perspective, fashion (and art) is about creating a moment, an image, a story. Something that comes and grabs you in, that provokes a reaction. I like that some draw parallels with the BTW cover because that's exactly the same situation. We have a hard time accepting something we don't understand and don't find beautiful. The only problem I have with the picture are the shoes though, wedges are like flip-flops to me. But it works pretty well in creating a look that challenges our understanding of fashion and beauty but still looks put together, from head to toe. NO RULES on ARTPOP, right? So yeah, it is my favorite ARTPOP picture so far. It is SO interesting, you sense that there is a story behind, a full concept that is ready to come out. There is so much depth. The face and hair are SO strong, it looks like a cultural signature. Like she's part of a tribe of white dreaded, icy eyed creatures. And that is SO HARD to create. She already did that kind of instantly iconic/recognizable look with the BTW prosthetics and it was brilliant. She looks ready to get dirty for her art. Like a technician ready to roll on paint and jump on a canvas. I like the wires coming out of her head too, like a robot loading in informations before being ready to function. Like a canvas meeting technology. A traditional form of art collaborating with an underground movement. An artist in the process of creating, in that gazing moment of deep searching. I don't know, you could read so many things... she truly is everything. Anyway, the picture is striking, therefore it is successful. Goodbye. finally someone who has the ability to criticize and judge a piece of art and a--lyze it perfectly Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People always have these meltdowns whenever we get something new though This is tame compared to some of the other 'moments' GGD has had haha.

Kermit the frog 1,921 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Are ppl rly freaking out because she doesn't look BEAUTIFUL? It's fcking lady gaga for god's sake, "I'd rather look interesting that beautiful and s-xy" person. It's like the first truly original and very interesting image that we've got this era.

Pop 4,541 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 People are so basic. I swear to god 99% of this fanbase is only happy when she has a straight blonde wig on and looks like Britney Spears/Katy Perry. I hope Gaga pushes her radical image changes EVEN MORE so those basic b---hes get the **** out. I'd rather see her music sell less than have these basic ass b---hes in the fanbase that only want her to do beauty shots. Gross. Get an education.
