1 exemple: The Edge of Glory video.

 

All we know is that the director said NO to her idea (whatever it was) and she decided to leave the set e direct her own music video.

 

The result we know what is. She is losing that grip of reality to be honest. We love her, but she needs to put her feet back on the ground.

 

Some fans have never forgiven EoG video. For them, it proves Gaga's instincts are always WRONG and she robbed us of a perfect wonderful masterpiece video that would have made EoG #1. No way she could have valid reasons for not liking the director's ideas, right?

 

Only freaking fanbase with members who want their artist to be MORE of a conventional puppet.

Agreed. I honestly feel like she has so much talent and so many ideas that her work doesn't always seem so clear/cohesive. I feel like it's sometimes hard for her to put all of her ideas together to form a smooth music video or performance. Does that make sense? For example, Katy Perry lacks the imagination of GaGa, but this actually works for her because her content is simple and basic. It's planned out correctly. GaGa sometimes does need professional help, whether that means hiring accomplished directors for her music videos and performances, just like other great artists have (Madonna, Michael Jackson -> all used great directors for their work), or asking for advice with her image in general. I know many of you will say she's just expressing herself, but in order to be extremely successful in this business you have to create clear and consistent work.

 

This.

Don't judge me, please, this is just my opinion.

 

But I found myself thinking about the whole Applause drama, and Born This Way's lack of appeal, and etc, and I feel like it's all her fault. I feel like she's so full of herself and she thinks everything she does is gold and perfect, when in fact she needs a lot of professional help to make her ideas and creativity work.

 

Let's focus on Applause. I love the song, even though it's not an obvious hit. But I was like: "okay, this is as good as Just Dance, and if Just Dance worked, Applause has a chance to work as well (even tho the lyrics are far from relatable)". But then comes the VMA's performance. Don't get me wrong, I love that performance, but it left so much potential to explore. It's fun and happy, but it's not... epic, remarkable? And you don't need to be shocking to look cool again. The Brit Awards performance just came to mind. How does this relate to the title of the thread? It does because I feel like she feels that the Haus is perfect, when in fact it fails on so many levels, and she just doesn't search for professional help...

 

And then comes that awful, super dark, all over the place, poorly directed video. I can't stress how much I've been hating Gaga videos since The Fame Monster. And once again, I feel like they all "flop" because she's so full of herself and of her artistry that she doesn't want a PROFESSIONAL DIRECTOR (NOT PHOTOGRAPHERS who are her friends and will say yes to anything she asks for without even thinking if it will work or not) to film it. She NEEDS help, she needs someone to translate her ideas in a comprehensible, relatable way and, most of all, to stop her and tell her "no, this won't work".

 

And that's it, basically. I'm just praying for her to wake up and see that all these flaws are kind of ruining her own success. Now I don't mean to tell you that I feel like everything is bad to me. I loved most of the songs she presented at the iTunes Festival and for the first time in a long long time, I felt like she still has the potential to be the best Gaga she once was - and I felt that with the ARTPOP (song) performance.

I'm apologizing to you and everyone else who is on your boat, but I have to strongly disagree with you. This whole opinion about her is very one-sided, and it comes off as very very ignorant. How dare you?! I honestly couldn't tell if you were trolling or not. Her success is not fading as you're making it seem to be. I'm going to pray for you that you don't lose sleep at night because of these horribly inaccurate misconceptions of Lady Gaga, her work, and her way of doing things. Have you not been up-to-date with how successful Applause has been? I'm going to stop right here before I get offensive, but you need to open up your eyes, and sip the tea.

I'm not getting any sleep tonight because I woke up to a beautiful life. I'm awake.

Wrecking Ball was directed by a photog and turned out really well, so I'm not sure what your point is with that

 

wrecking ball did well because miley was naked and licking a hammer "miley: not because of terry

Sounds more like you can't handle people taking apart your opinions or the usual thinking that anyone that disagrees with a critical fan must be "delusional" :roll:

No.. I'm pretty sure it's the delusional fans.

Calling one of the most selfless people on earth 'egocentrical' sounds rude to me. All I'm saying is that of you don't like what Gaga's doing, go stan for someone else cause Famega is not coming back. The problem is that everyone is here for a popstar, and Gaga is far from the typical ideas of what one should be.
