It was also the beginnings of the cult of celebrity.
Just think of the videos. 
The candidness of the style would be a great immediate counterbalance for how contrived her visuals can be. It'd work best for capturing the movement in that Vanity Fair picture too. |
Yep, good point! Everything about these recent months: The imagery, art, fashion, performances has been Pop Art turned on its head: ARTPOP
With Pop Art popular in the 50s and on, the fashion matches it: Old Hollywood fashion, Old Hollywood movies if Disney and its princesses count, the head scarves, etc.
Her Warholian performances with the Warhol eating a cheeseburger inspired performance art today, and the Sleep or w/e the Warhol film called for the FAME Launch inspired performance.
What I can say is, like she said, everything she's done from the beginning has been ARTPOP.
I guess now we just know and her ARTPOP has been more explicit, visible, and noticeable.
So I can expect a super Gaga album with ARTPOP, except once again, its something we can't predict.
Just my thoughts.
Nice pic though!
