"The world is burning and it's very clear who's holding the matches." Did she lie here?? It's become very apparent that the US is not a living and breathing democracy anymore - maybe hasn't been for a while, and other liberal strongholds may soon follow. Money officially makes the rules now, prevents criminals from being pursued and allows them to become US president (= leader of the Western world). What happened to "Power to the People"? Politicians, CEOs and the 0.1 % are laughing at and sh**ting on human rights, equality and democratic values. How exactly is change going to happen peacefully at this point, when the people can't do sh*t about an unfair and oligarchic government?

Gaga-esque and C**t thing Gaga has ever done? The looks, the GH song debut, the walk, the cigarette just a serve after serve event. Gaga made it her b!tch ICONIC! To this day it still SLAYS me!

Spotify Global 🌎 #1. Die With A Smile - 10,875,097 (107 days at #1) Another 11M update unfiltered on lock

Besides the other achievements in the Dutch Top 40, Lady Gaga became the female artist with the most weeks at #1 with 29 weeks. Just Dance (2 weeks) Poker Face (8 weeks) Born This Way (2 weeks) DWAS (17 weeks)

Suddenly? Mama, we been knew she's said awful things about Black and gay people.

chile…the way she sniffed the mixed blood in him like a hound dog mad as hell

Monthly listeners 116,607,795 (+198,928) *new peak*

Paparazzi has officially passed 700M streams on Spotify today

Yooo for real, that's enough what is that she never accomplished now? The album is not delayed and she hasn't posted anything you can hold against her, at this point you're simply stirring up drama out of nowhere for the sake of melting down here

What are the rants all about? She said it will come in Feb. No one promised a second single / announcement/ promo before the album. Ya’ll are just preparing yourself to be disappointed because you expect her to do things no one promised. Let her cook, LG7 is just around the corner. We waited for more than 4 years, we can wait 1 more month. Grow up.

shes right and she should say it. billionaire ceos are everything thats wrong with the world atm, buying elections while making our planet uninhabitable. there is not a single positive thing about a billionaire ceo

Spotify Disease : 110,179,233 (+942,162)

Never understood why some people liked her so much. She is an awful person.

Disease goes below 6M weekly streams for the first time after removal from Spotify Today's Top Hits. Although, it's a good thing the decrease wasn't THAT big. Here are the past 3 weeks comparison: week 9: 97,167,877 (+6,016,794) week 10: 103,333,246 (+6,165,369) week 11: 109,237,071 (+5,903,825) - first week WITHOUT Today's Top Hits Total of 109.2M streams for the first 11 weeks. Keep streaming this banger. I'm excited for the album to boost Disease in February.

Iceland 1 (=) Die With A Smile (13 Weeks at #1)

Wtf this duality conflict is literally what Gaga has been talking about for years.

Is Billboard USA Hot 100 no longer relevant in the streaming era? (Both 2018 charts/songs) Always Remember Us This Way (#41 on Hot 100) Spotify total streams—1.458B daily—1M Song by a male rapper (10 weeks at #1 Hot 100) Spotify total streams—1.427B daily streams—174k PS: Billboard Global 200 songs chart is more adjusted to the streaming era.

I mean CEOs very much *have* been killing us. Their policies kill people every single day, just as much as a bullet to the head would. They have normalized this in society, and it IS violence against us, and they are thrilled to justify it to earn a profit. And if it ends in normal, everyday people leading a violent uprising against the ruling class, well call me Ethel Cain because baby I'm ready

He looked up “songs that released in 2024” and just picked the first one he saw

Lol you should seriously try to listen to his album, look at the lyrics and do a bit of research about puerto rican/ Latin music bc he is a great artist, and he's also one of the rare mainstream artists nowadays that talks about political / social issues in his music. As much as I want DWAS to break that 120 days record, I still think that bad bunny deserve that success

I think it's important to acknowledge that Paris has recognized and apologized (somewhat) for things she said that were offensive, specially considering she herself endured abuse as a teenager. also, i think it's pretty fcked up to bring a quote from 2001 to judge her as she is the same person from 24 years ago. i'm 25 and I've gone through so much changes during this time period, and I see that she currently has turned into a very important advocate for mental health and human rights.

Yep like how racist do you have to be to clock vin diesel omg he looks white

I can't can't not agree, agree, not agree, agree. Whichever answer won't get me on a list. Also her new album is great.

I don't support it. But after decades of playing the game by the CEO set rules and losing..... I can understand people creating new rules and making the CEOs play by them

The chart run of DWAS on the Dutch top 40 looks amazing 26-7-4-2-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 Only one week short of the record of most weeks at the top in the 60 years history of the chart

this is an excerpt from Everyone Loves You When You're Dead by Neil Strauss, released in 2001.

When most people think of Lady Gaga’s big tours, the Monster Ball or the Born This Way Ball often come to mind. However, when we talk about the Monster Ball Tour (MBT), the conversation naturally leans toward the arena version. But here’s the thing—doesn’t the theater version deserve more love? Sure, the theater iteration of MBT was put together in three weeks (which is iconic in itself, if you ask me). While it wasn’t as extravagant as the arena version, I feel the 1.0 variation of the tour captured the The Fame Monster album’s aesthetic more authentically than the 2.0 version. It had this intimate yet theatrical vibe that felt like a perfect representation of Gaga’s artistic vision at the time. Don’t get me wrong, the arena shows were groundbreaking in their own right, but there’s something about the stripped-down, raw energy of the theater version that deserves more appreciation. What are your thoughts? Did the theater version resonate with you, or do you feel the arena tour eclipses it completely? Let’s hear it! — Discuss below.

From Charts Predictions : "Die With A Smile" is currently projected to remain at #1 on next week's Billboard Hot 100 (chart dated Jan. 25, 2025) for its third consecutive week atop by the end of this week's tracking period (Jan. 10-16). 26-28 million streams (top 4 in streaming) 63-65 million airplay (top 2 in radio) 4k-6k digital downloads (top 5 in sales)

And due that her whole top 10 on Spotify surpassed 700M mark

How old are y’all lol this is old tea

It’s such a tricky subject. Taking a life is A LOT. Like I cannot say that enough. However, these people at the top with the true power are indirectly killing thousands of people and ruining the lives of millions, or possibly (and probably) billions. Nothing is getting done through other means so I mean… what other choice do people like us have to FORCE them to listen and play fair?

Not the NIN-inspired second single from LG7 "Disease"?

I have explained this many times, but Gaga is one of the most global artists out there. The Hot 100 is almost meaningless to her power outside the USA, she holds the record for most IFPI annual global entries in the top 10 for a female artist (not even Rihanna has that). Also, DWAS is predicted to be there as well, so she will continue to hold this record.

You when you were writing number 2

River: "If I see ANY leaks on this site bitches is getting cut. Do you know this is ILLEGAL?!" Also River: "Ima leave a loaded Glock and a balaclava in this Adidas holdall. Warren Buffet leaves that hotel in five minutes. Whatever happens, happens"

The highest form of compliment

Baby what will I do for entertainment then?

I agree that political violence is not preferable and that we don’t want to normalise political violence against any political opponent. Political violence is never what anybody wants. They want the exact opposite - adequate healthcare, reductions in gun violence, a healthy environment and financial stability. Political violence, however, is an inevitability when the majority feel as if their basic needs are not being met adequately, their safety is not guaranteed and the inequality between the haves and have-nots continues to grow. With that being said, your post does feel like a “slippery slope” fallacy. Using political violence against a privileged, elite class that is actively suppressing the voices of everyday Americans and oppressing everyday Americans does not equal using political violence in every situation where there is political disagreement. There is a lack of trust in American institutions and it’s a trust that has been slowly eroding for a long time now. There is a distrust in the political branches of government, the judicial system and even the electoral process. This hasn’t necessarily been undeserved either. We have seen billionaires like Trump avoid jail time or financial penalties for crimes committed while there are real case studies of every day citizens sentenced to 17 years in jail for half an ounce of marijuana. We have seen billionaires like Elon Musk buy massive social media companies and weaponise them to spread disinformation and propaganda by amplifying his voice and suppressing dissent in order to convince US, Australian, UK, European citizens to vote in ways aligned with his interests. We have seen billionaires donate large amounts of money to candidates in National and State races to protect their financial interests above the welfare of every day citizens and have it protected as free speech. As a result of this for DECADES we have seen: Enormous gun violence in the US when compared to other developed nations in times of peace while the NRA fund politicians. We have seen people die or become bankrupt in the worlds largest economy because they cannot afford medically necessary procedures that have been denied by private insurance while insurance companies fund politicians. We have seen people die or have their homes and communities destroyed by natural disasters intensified by the effects of climate change while big oil funds politicians. We have seen people lose their homes, businesses and been laid off work while the banks responsible for providing loans they knew were predatory and irresponsible get bailed out with 0 charges brought against those responsible. We have been talking about the influence of money in politics for decades, there have been protests and grassroot campaigns fighting for environment protections, change in healthcare, and in many cases there has been a consensus among Democrats and Republicans. What is the next step when your non-violent demonstrations and political activism is ignored? At this point in time, people are more disillusioned than ever. They have tried to work within the rules of the system. They have voted, they have protested, they have signed petitions and volunteered. If this hasn’t worked, what now? The reality is that this movement towards political violence has been brewing for a long time now and at this point people are feeling like it’s more “delusional” to think they can effect change by working within the rules of a system they believe (not without merit) is actively working against them.

I think you're missing the point. It's about striking fear into those who feel like they're above the law and able to line their own pockets by exploiting the people they are elected or paid to protect, all without having to expect any consequences for their horrible actions. I don't see how your argument makes much sense, because they already ARE KILLING innocent people. I - and many others who observe the current shift from democracy to fascism, whose lives are dependent on an affordable and just healthcare system, who fear for their life or livelihood because their governments do not protect them from discrimination or acts of violence etc. - already have to live in fear every single day! That's the difference: when a large scale uprising finally does happen, the 0.1% responsible for our crumbling democracies will have so much more to lose. It's about curing a sick and rotten system, not about throwing the first stone, because that ship has long sailed. Lmao

In order to kill the system, you have to hit those in power where it hurts. And they obviously couldn't care less about the people, their peers, the planet or humanity - all they care about is themselves, and their own well-being. So yeah, maybe another hydra head is gonna pop out whenever you take one down, but that new hydra head might just be a little bit more careful and less dangerous, because he knows what happened to the one before him. Those people feel completely untouchable, and we'll never see them play by the rules unless they finally start to fear that their actions could have consequences that affect THEM, PERSONALLY.

Idk if I fully support it but we definitely are way too soft on these people.

Also it's true but she shouldn't have said it, kinda
