They have a point. Not gonna lie. The Paparazzi performance and the meat dress remain her 2 most remembered VMA moments.
Although Jo Calderone and specially the Applause performance are not "crazy" moments
I'm a Gaga stan and no lies are spotted. The Applause performance clearly wasn't made to be shocking / remembered, though. She just wanted to showcase the song and promote it
They didn't lie though Everyone says it, yet people on this site don't seem to get that she's not the biggest star in the world anymore and not everything she did is or will be remembered.
