Move on from being a fan if the wait is just too much? :( You can't just abandon your MOTHER like that. Cruel She gave birth to every single one of us.

garnite 8 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 This is so sad to be around. I know the people in this forum are a small slice of the fanbase but they're also quite dedicated. Seeing people here losing hope makes me worry about what she's doing. She doesn't *owe* us anything, but we're the ones who buy the albums and concert tickets. Like she said, the best way she can repay us is to make new music, and right now I think a lot of people are feeling disregarded. She's well enough to retweet but she won't tweet us. We are not the media, we are her fans. Ignoring us is so out of character for someone who has built a relationship (that she prides herself on) between the fans and her. Long story short I don't know what to think right now. There are a few hours left in her birthday but I don't think we'll hear anything. This is a dark time for our fanbase tbh. but you should only be buying her albums because you like the music and going to see her concerts because you want to her perform. as you said at first, she doesn't owe you anything, so it follows that she doesn't have to repay you with anything. she puts out a product and because you like it you buy it. that's the transaction complete. she doesn't owe you after the fact. you've got the album you bought and the memories of the concert and she's got your money. it doesn't make sense to say that she should make music to repay you for buying her previous music. i'm going in circles here but that's because you suggested she should repay you just after saying she doesn't owe you. she's not ignoring anyone. since she doesn't owe anyone, she doesn't have to tweet. yes, she's kept a rapport with her fans over twitter for years and when she goes quiet it's obvious people are going to get upset, but the thing is she hasn't done anything wrong by not tweeting. it is her fault that people are upset by her silence because she should've known that such a communication as she's had in the past would only raise the expectations of unreasonable fans who take celebrity fan connections too seriously. and i don't understand this "losing hope" business. she's the artist, you're the fan. you appreciate her work. she isn't a conveyor belt. when her next work comes out, enjoy it. what is there to hope for? be upset when she announces she's retiring, which he hasn't done yet, i think!?

Jase 13,285 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 It's not like the tour was some Mother Teresa-esque 100% altruistic venture. Tickets ain't cheap. Of course, the fact that she did tour is nice, and the fact that she gave amazing performances was nice, too, but you can't ignore the fact that she profited from it. Listen, I love the Lady and I bore everyone in my life to death by talking about her constantly but I don't think it's right to always defend everything she does. She's human. Um, nobody is defending anything SHE has done because she hasn't recently done anything which NEEDS defending Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GagaHAMISH 0 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Isn't it only like 8pm in Chicago though? There's still a few hours to go...

Prometheus 1,494 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Its quite obvious Gaga will rise again on Easter with an announcement. ...I didn't even think of that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Didymus 34,379 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 I don't give a ****. I listen to lots of other artists who don't even do 10% of what's Gaga doing for us. We should be thankful she has been tweeting the way she has for so long! I hate Little Monsters sometimes. Ugh, get a life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GagaHAMISH 0 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 I think something ARTPOP related could be coming within the next 2 hours! Look at how Lacee is speaking! Like: "Hahahah MWAHHZ" (I know it's what she does everyday, but still!) OMG! I am so excited and you know what, I don't care if no ARTPOP news comes today, cause you know what, I've got no ARTPOP waiting energy to use! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase 13,285 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Bryan, why gets everyone's hopes up with an Easter announcement? you're to blame for the next meltdown I don't give a ****.

Nervous Unicorn 440 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 I'm tired of people getting mad at other's opinions. It's getting old. This fan base will never agree on opinions of Gaga especially when it comes to these last few months. I understand both sides but it doesn't mean we have to be rude and harsh, especially from moderators. This makes me sad. Imagine if Gaga saw this. She'd never release ARTPOP. I understand those who are hurt by her silence. I hate that people are arguing over it. I also see how someone could think we're being ridiculous, but that doesn't mean you have to be jerks.
