Full Interview: Lady Gaga on The Culture Show

[craig 680]

Gaga is starting to come off weird in the Michael Jackson and Prince sense. I found the interviewer quite sympathetic, and Gaga sweet but very odd. Combo of being over-tired and in different moods from day to day.

The interview was great, but I was really put-off by the interviewer. Her little "selfy" interruption bits were completely unnecessary and it annoyed me so much how she pronounced "Gaga" wrong the whole time.

Didn't think this was worthy of it's own thread but what do you guys think about this article?

Interesting that it very much critiques Miranda Sawyer (the interview) whilst praising Gaga. I find it's not often this happens. I agree with it somewhat. The thing that annoyed me most however, was how she pronounced 'Gaga'

 

Thoughts? 

yea i hated that she kept interrupting the interview too with the side notes. i didnt get. it was almost like she making fun of gaga.

It's obvious that gaga is tired of being  pop superstar. I really wish she'd stop being on a label and just have her art friends help make videos. Venus proves she can make her own music. She can make money that way. The label needs her more than she needs them

To me she was.. No need to be a rudeass

To me it felt like you were complaining. The interviewer very clearly expressed her admiration and praise for Gaga. Her cutaway scenes where she spoke directly to the camera were just a stylistic choice and nothing else.

Thats fine.whatever. I just didn't think the camera cut scenes were necessary.

Gaga is such an intelligent woman, she would have researched this show and realised that she should focus on her artistry rather than her music during the interview. She intimidated the interviewer and surprised her because she would have judged Gaga before the interview and thought of her as a regular pop star.

i was blown away. this interview really touched me and astonished me ONCE AGAIN 

[Rimes 5]

I have to admit that I disliked this interview, for the most part.  I may have been spoiled by having listened to the entire Howard Stern interview before it, where Gaga came across as very real.  In this "Culture Show" interview, she came across to me as very pretentious, in a cold and distant way -- in fact, the word that popped into my mind watching it was "flakey."  As if the fact that she is an artiste, and hangs around other artists, talking about artistic things, puts her on some higher plane of thought than us mere mortals.  I'm an artist, too (though not professionally, but I do write and draw). Many of her fans are artists, as a peek at LM.com demonstrates. 

 

I'd like to see Gaga express more the idea that all of us can achieve our potential to be artists; it's not just for the rarified few who grace us with their presence.  (Perhaps this feeling was exacerbated by the interviewer emphasizing at the beginning how hard it was to get an interview with Gaga, and treating the adoring public outside her hotel like a mere backdrop for her performance art as she entered in a ghostlike manner.)  It is strange that Gaga acts one way on one show and completely differently on another.  In a way it's disturbing to think that her manner is determined by what she thinks the host of the show wants her to be.  As if it's ALL really an act.  I hope that's not so.

she says this literally like ALL THE TIME.

 

lets not forget that Gaga was exhausted and probably just barely awake during this interview.  it was still really interesting I thought.
