wahkeenasitka 1,995 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 I will not say that Gaga's performance with Millie was "glamorizing bulimia" BUT I do think that fans posting pictures of themselves with their hands in their mouth, covered in paint... that is glamorizing bulimia. And it really is not okay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elijahfan 26,031 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 This is not the same gaga that we used to know and love. ARE YOU KIDDING? For how long have you been a fan? 2 days? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimisaMonster 31,073 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 I've been seeing these disturbing images on LM.com of teenagers putting up mock art / purging images, emulating the Swine performance.. I think it's pretty messed up. I think Gaga needs to make a statement speaking against eating disorders & bulimia... it's not okay to be emulating a sick addiction illness. I do agree with this however...it's fans like this that scare me the most, cuz they're DOING the most Stream my new single, 💜"Heartbeat"💜, on Spotify!

itschris 0 Posted March 17, 2014 Author Share Posted March 17, 2014 First of all, Perez Hilton's opinion is less important than a cow's opinion in a slaughterhouse Second of all, I was a bulimic myself, and I just dont see how vomiting promotes bulimia, bulimia is about body shape, insecurities, bullying or whatever, not just for the sake of throwing up Then I guess her Paparazzi 2009 VMAs performance should be crucified for promoting suicide and self harming right? I think there's a difference between a music video and a performance. People weren't posting pics jumping off balconies like they are now sticking fingers in their mouthYeah guys I'm not really criticizing gaga. The fans posting the pics in response to it are promoting it and it's a result of the performance. That's the point I'm trying to make and gaga is always posting on twitter about bullying, etc. I feel like she should say something because the images are pretty disturbing and for all the young gaga fans that are in their early teens, it's going to influence them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celina 118 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 It was brilliant in context of the performance and the point she was trying to make. Was it an unpleasant sight? Yeah. But it made perfect sense... And it certainly wasn't glamorizing eating disorders. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

High King 640 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Who cares if people are taking pictures with their fingers in their mouth? It's not like they're actually gagging themselves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wahkeenasitka 1,995 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 that's those people fault. Gaga has nothing to do with that. that's not true. It has everything to do with Gaga. they're posting the photos on LittleMonsters.com and they're emulating the Applause makeup / paint... They are clearly copying & emulating Gaga to get attention.

Adakam 2 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Not everything surrounding vomit is about bulimia, Its been used in comedy for decades, theres a fetish about it (2 girls 1 cup) and Millie isnt even the first painter to use it I just dont get, again, as a former bulimic, how watching someone vomit gets you to be bulimic HOW ARE THOSE LM.COM FANS BULIMIC NOW? THEY JUST TOOK A PICTURE, EVEN IF THEY DID VOMIT ONCE, ITS NOT LIKE ITS CRONIC AND THEY ARE DOOMED NOW Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memo 176 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Did you even catch the point she was trying to make, the message of the song, what she said in her speech before the song and the reasons behind Millie's art and that performance or are you just criticizing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
