bumblebee 2,528 Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 After watching Lady Gaga and R Kelly performance, I've got some thoughts to share! First of all, I would like to say that I really enjoyed the performance, like I've been captivated from the very beginning to the last seconds! The show they have put on was ambitious, edgy and at the same time really well executed in terms of acting, vocals and stage design. Most importantly, it was very fun to watch and it just showed that Gaga has still the performance artist vibe that nobody can ever take away from her. She still is full of the stage instincts/amazing vocals and creative ideas that have made her so famous and notable life performer. She still has it all! It's just painful for us as the community of Gaga most loyal fans not to see Gaga at the front-line of the pop stardom, not making headlines and causing stir and breaking YouTube views records and having massive sales because we all know how much talent and passion she brings into her work, how much integrity and artistic input there is behind her music, how exhausting she gets sometimes. To see that she is not recognized is sad for so many of her fans. What I mean to say is that if she had done anything like that performance back in 2009/2010, she would have grabbed thousands of headlines from all around the world and the performance probably would have been discussed even in the news. But while I was reading the reviews of the AMAs, I noticed that although commentators and journalists did acknowledge Gaga did something interesting with R Kelly, they didn't find it really outstanding, although seems like Gaga was very different from other artists at the show in terms of performance. So the idea is that Gaga is the same Gaga she used to be at the very beginning. Yes, her music has changed, but it couldn't stay the same. But her stage presence, performance instincts and entertainer vibe are still here and show no sign of fading away. But for some reason the general audience, the critics and journalists are now more aggressive towards her. She is the same at the core, but her reception by the public has changed. I don't know why it's actually this way, and I think that you should dig somewhere into mass media psychology/ mass entertainment... I'm studying marketing and in marketing there's such a definition like "product lifecycle". It's the conception which claims that any product goes through the stage of INTRODUCTION, GROWTH, MATURITY AND DECLINE. Gaga is not a f**king product, neither is her music, but the idea is interesting. I think we should all stick closer and give her as much support as possible!

Disregard 50 Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Mess at the vile Timber about to overtake the equally worthless Monster on iTunes. My country's lack of taste knows no bounds. But yeah, nobody should be surprised that Miley's performance will have the most column inches tomorrow. No matter what direction she went, it was always going to be that way. If she went with a simple performance, the headline would have been "Miley Tones It Down", and if she did something nonsensical (as she did), it was going to be "Miley Does It Again." It was ridiculous just for the sake of being ridiculous. There was no statement or meaning behind it. In a few days we'll have a quote from her about how "I just thought it would be hilarious to have a giant animated cat behind me lulz." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus it hasn't aired in the West and Ellen will give her some spotlight. The song will be fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
