Let’s be real. It’s fair to say Gaga isn’t the it girl and hasn’t been since Born This Way era. Her last big hit was probably shallow and don’t come for me with rain on me. Yes it peaked at number 1 but it’s nowhere to be heard from these days. Gaga doesn’t seem to care much about re-peaking and is only focused on doing whatever it is that makes her happy which seems like it’s acting and make up. I don’t think Gaga cares to smash the charts anymore. I think she proved herself and showed us what a mastermind she is. As long as Gaga is happy so am I and couldn’t care less how her next musical project is received because I’ll gladly listen to it either way.

And I hope it flops with his racist a**

My great aunt called her “Della Puta” once and I have no idea where she even conjured those words from.

The reverse Rihanna expedition

These people hear Brazil and think “crime and violence”

Gotta say I unfollowed her Insta a few months ago as it's just a platform for her to promote Haus Labs and pills like cheap influencers... not into that.

It's official, she knows

It was supposed to start 15 minutes ago so I guess just 3 and half hours to go

I think a lot of us have accepted that the album isn’t coming any time soon and I personally don’t like being teased for months/years with no concrete thing to look forward to.

Setlist: 1. Training Season 2. Houdini 3. Happy For You 4. Illusion

It obviously feels like teasing but I don’t think that’s what her intention is, she’s just sharing because she’s excited. I would rather content from her than none at all. She seems to be in a really healthy mindset these days where she is just doing what makes her happy and I love that.

Yeah . When she first started doing it at the beginning of the year ppl thought she had the album done and finished and now she’s teasing we learned our lesson

Honestly kept scrolling past it cause I thought it was an older post. It just wasn’t exciting and had a generic caption. Don’t think there’s any big “reason” why this one didn’t do numbers. edit: coming back to this to say it’s kind of exciting. I feel like we get her best projects when she’s super secretive and “boring”. The time before Chromatica was just like this and while granted not much came of the era, it was purely circumstantial. She had such huge plans for that. Just hoping we get the chance to experience this next era in all its glory

Giving Madonna’s Copacabana free concert vibe

I'm still skeptical but I think it's just because I don't like Madonna and also everyone can hold a record if you put enough technicalities on it but saying that makes me sound bitter when I don't actually mind it 'cause she's undeniably a legend

Wrong. Rain On Me was a hit, along with Shallow and Always Remember Gaga this Way. Bloody Mary also scored some moderate success too. Credit where credit is due.

Ten years ago today on May 4th, 2014, Lady Gaga kicked off her ArtRave concert tour in Sunrise, Florida (a suburb of Fort Lauderdale). Opened by Lady Starlight, the concert was a major success despite being part of an era that was viewed negatively by some. In contrast to the rumors, every date of the tour (except for the Marcus Amphitheatre in Milwaukee and possibly another) was entirely sold out. The show was rave inspired with many flashing lights, lasers, and bright colors. As Lady Gaga herself mentioned in 2022, this tour was the first of three (ArtRave, Joanne World Tour, and Enigma) in which she dropped the "Mother Monster Aesthetic" in favor of a different look. FUN FACT: Lady Gaga sang a full (and actually extended) version of Paparazzi in the original key at the opening date:

Its a cute choice, but uncanny

i don't understand this fanbase you guys were so ANGRY she never posted anymore to the point where she had to talk about it and now that she's posted a random selfie, you guys are complaining because there's no hype attached to it... this is exactly what y'all asked for

"Tryna strike a chord and it's probably A-minor"

She killed it. She really is on another level. No artist can compare.

She is indisputably the all time greatest pop girl for me, how could anyone even deny that? There are very few artists that I respect more The longevity is just amazing, who else could have pulled off something like that at this stage? I was lucky enough to attend the celebration tour and it was a great night. Perfect visuals, perfect setlist etc. I took a friend who was not a fan and did not even know any of her music and he was blown away This was the perfect victory lap for her, imagine nearly dying prior to this tour and coming out here killing it like this, Madonna is a force of nature

He just needs to mention Millie Bobbie brown and drake is finished lmao

They mismanaged the hype and burnt out all the hardcore fans. We're all waiting for substantial announcements now.

I’m so happy. Beauty Killer is one of the best pop albums ever

Republicans when they saw Gaga wearing a dress made of dead Kermit the Frogs

I'm so proud of M. This tour was such a feat and really a celebration, and to end it with this historic and incredible show in Rio is badass. Nobody can touch her and her legacy. There's a lot to be said about the show's sexuality, the queerness, the bold imagery. She paved the way for contemporary artists and continues to pave the way. What a privilege to witness her presence and her gift to culture.

She acknowledged many of her names last year. Even Lipa Dupa

I feel like she’s not getting any professional advice on how promotions/eras work in 2024. The type of teasing (whether intentional or not) is what singers used to do in 2010. People move on very quickly nowadays and will not be invested in months of teasing that lead to nothing.

Lost me after he said he needed to throw battery acid on a black woman to make her skin lighter and used several racial slurs. Almost got me back after the apology tour, then lost me for good after the country transphobic era. Y'all have fun supporting that man though.

People are saying its the largest crowd for a standalone concert ever. Icon behaviour

Celebration Toue was such an epic moment. Had the chance to see it it Paris, one of my best concerts

All this is really doing is demonstrating how much better of a writer and rapper Kendrick is than Drake. Drake's track was one of his better ones in recent years but Kendrick is putting out tracks that would be some artist's best songs like it's not even hard for him.

It’s over I could have watched 2 more hours, what a moment

This album is so amazing. ive listened to it non-stop since yesterday.

whatever happened to serving looks? instagram is literally the platform for that. nobody cares about Gaga's selfies in her pjs. she is the least followed MPG because her feed is sooo bad and inconsistent. even those Haus photoshoots look like arts and crafts. Where is the wealth and the fashion? I guess she doesn't have anyone in her team to tell her

not her best looking wig

i think a lot of people (plus Gaga) are misunderstanding the “complainers”. fans are complaining because all she does now is just post haus labs/ads and after the first nurtec ad she thought fans were upset that she wasn’t posting enough personal content — which is true but i think we respect her enough that if she doesn’t want to share then she doesn’t have to but don’t fake this parasocial relationship (which was created in 08) just to continue pushing ads on us. that’s what people are upset about. it just doesn’t feel genuine anymore and feels like she’s just sharing so she doesn’t lose those fans. it’s kinda like her social media strategy now is post 2 ads and then 1 personal post, etc. and i mean yeah sure she can do whatever she wants it’s her business at the end of the day but her brand was built off of a bond between her and her fans also not to mention all her critiques on capitalism and how she doesn’t want to be a “celebrity”. and i think fans have (to a certain extent) valid reasons as to why they’re upset. they feel like this bond that was shared is gone and now abandoned. maybe we’re misunderstanding her intentions cause the Gaga we’ve known has always had good intentions but it’s hard to say cause we feel like we don’t know her anymore pls don’t quote this to continue more discourse im just trying to get everyone to understand each other

When Gaga inevitably goes back to posting nothing for months on end, I hope y'all remember this. Is it annoying that we haven't gotten any concrete info about LG7? Yeah. But would I rather have her post photos and stories of her just enjoying the music-making process over nothing? Absolutely. She seems passionate and happy about the music she's creating and that's only a good thing. We'll eventually get LG7 anyway, and on the bright side, she's actually communicating with us that she's working on music. She could easily just stay silent. EDIT - I just read more of this thread and there's absolutely no way y'all are considering this the "pre-era" This isn't the pre-era...She's said nothing concrete about LG7. She's literally just posting pics of her working on music. Imo pre-eras happen before the album release, but when we have actual, legitimate news. The dramatics on some of y'all is more tiring than anything Gaga's done recently atp

this is honestly the worst "pre-era" in my opinion. Pre ARTPOP was magical. Pre LG5/LG6 were also iconic in their own ways - from the fake leaks to the fun teasing and all. Like someone pointed out, a lot of teasing in the last few months was done for damage control. It all really just feels uninspired and meh.

Witness WISHES it were ARTPOP. Lets put Witness/Bionic together instead.

They had all the world's attention when she started teasing in January, even some websites were sharing the excitement, but this pre era has been managed very poorly (even by Gaga standards)

i think it’s partially people are tired of the teasing and partially because if you didn’t read the caption and only looked at the video (with sound), it just looked like a selfie of her on the living room floor while michael put away dishes
