[mitchell 0]

Ya'll were dying to see her in some fashion rather than just being naked. . . And then you melt the fcuk down because it isn't what you expected. This is GAGA. . . Expect the unexpected :lolgaga:

I'm the only one that think that this pic is interesting?

I LOVE IT!!!! it's a big middle finger to all stereotypes, my favourite promo pic of this era so far

This exactly. It was meant to look just the way it looks. I laughed when I first saw it and I really like it

I just tweeted this to her. I hope she sees that some people got her message and understand her frustration when it comes to fashion.

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.

perfect post

So many arrogant people here who call basic to those who don't like what they like. 

You think you're special because you THINK you understand everything Gaga does.

That's pretty ****ing awesome in my opinion. I don't feel like reading 24 pages. The obvious joke about the guys from the Matrix 2 has already been made right?

I like it, but the shoes are

[Sleigh Mama 0]

I just tweeted this to her. I hope she sees that some people got her message and understand her frustration when it comes to fashion.
