She did let her down though. She never showed her real hair before and she has done this now several times this era. She also changes clothes / wigs in the show to let people see behind "Lady Gag", this is what Marina also told her!
But I love Gaga's wigs and she loves theatre so it's clear she won't stop wearing them.

I dont think that management is so important. IMO MUSIC is what makes people buy an album. Even of you promote the hell out of an album if the music is not good people will not buy it. That said, Gaga is the problem because she writes the songs. So if she wants to see success, she needs to deliver GOOD MUSIC and only GOOD MUSIC!

Good music is important but a great management (that includes PR) is very important too. Do you think Beyoncé would have sold that much cause it's good music? No it was very clever PR thanks to her management.

Troy obviously knew fine well what ARTPOP was and I'm sure he helped make it what it became.
Do you REALLY think Gaga independently thought about working with T.I, Twista, Too $hort, Rick Ross, Will.I.Am and even Kendrick and Azealia? I could buy the latter two, but the others? Even if Gaga wanted to go urban, why would she pick them? Surely she'd go to Kanye, Jay and Drake...or at least people who have had hits this decade. It screamed of Troy going through his iPod, trying to recreate the Just Dance ft. Akon and Starstruck ft. Flo Rida to get some Rihanna crossover success.
I also find it very hard to believe she independently picked up DWUW off the cutting room floor and thought of R Kelly, who just happened to be about to release a new album.
Who knows how far it went.
I wouldn't be surprised if part of the drama between Gaga and Troy was that he directed her to create this "smash album" and threw it under the bus when it missed the mark.

That's very interesting and very very possible. I mean wasn't she almost finished with Artpop in July 2012 when she played the record to interscope?? how come she still had to work on the album almost a monther before it's release?
there were changes along the way def.

Fantastic!
And I can't believe they got that H&M spot....I didnt' even realize yesterday how big that would be, commercial and print ads everywhere

I really hope they chose the best song to promote it!
Also this can lead to hear doing this again solo with the next album.

So Tony Bennett is scheduled for the iTunes Festival on September 6th. I guess it's fair to say Gaga is going to be his surprise guest.

She's performing the day at New York Fashion Week so it's almost impossible for her to be in London the next day
