Gaga gets DRAGGED by Dutch/Belgium media
Her concert not being sold out tonight in the Dutch 'Ziggo Dome'. The stadium has 17,000 spots and is far from sold out. Ticket re-sellers are selling the tickets for 12 euro (15 dollar) because they don't sell.
Fun fact: In 2010 Gaga managed to sell out the stadium 'Ahoy' two times, which is around 35,000 people in total.
Due to this, one of the biggest Dutch newspapers wrote this (translated by google translate)
Quote:
Lady Gaga, once tipped as "the new Madonna", making the moment more impressed with her bizarre outfits than her music. Her show at Ziggo Dome tonight, no doubt full of spectacular clothing changes, has not sold out. Experts know why Gaga is overtaken. Fresh talent "It's just a repetition of moves."
A room with silver satin curtains, white leather sofas, posters on the wall of David Bowie, Queen and Elton John And to liven up a mannequin with pink pubic hair (!) The whole. Which in Oh, and not the eccentric madam Stefani Germanotta (as she is called in real life, ed.) Wishes in her dressing room. Forget the oxygen tank These are just some examples of the startling demands Lady Gaga enables them to perform.
mannequin
Can the singer-***-walking mannequin for the craziest fashion fabrications still lay down such requirements list, now they even her show at Ziggo Dome not selling out? Gaga, who will report after the Sportpaleis in Antwerp has put last night on stilts in Amsterdam today know in recent times to attract attention. Especially with her appearance And not, as at the time of the infamous meat dress, combined with her status as a hit machine. Where four years ago from all speakers squatters as Pokerface and Bad Romance sounded, now dominates radio silence. They do not draw attention to itself, but with the transparent dress which she loosened the tongues in Belgium or the golden chair in which she was moving for a while.
'Worthless'
3FM DJ Giel Beelen may well explain why the Netherlands is not massively prejudice to artrave: The artpop Ball tour of the once proclaimed by the leading music magazine Rolling Stone new queen of pop. "They now make crappy music. I was a fan, but now I hear they're coming to the Netherlands and then I think: 'again! ". There's just, with all due respect, a group of gay men who have been faithful to her. "

She sings ten times better than Madonna
Eric van Tijn
These are other artists enter the stage where Gaga was once the boss now. Katy Perry's already far surpassed her. With the release of Applause Gaga, from her latest album, came Roar of Perry. Roar became a worldwide hit, Applause is an individual remembers only. Music Producer Eric van Tijn thinks it is her music: "She always made something new, then what should be even more special. At one time holding on. "
Madonna
Where Gaga once seemed to catch up as the new queen of pop, Madonna is now cut by fresh talent to her chair legs. So is Ariana Grande, a former Disney star, lurking with her worldwide hit Bang Bang. And Rihanna and Beyonce, which is about the time of Gaga reached the summit, stringing still success to success. Radio DJ and Top 40 guru Erik de Zwart sees a trend that was more frequent in the history of music. "If artists do not renew, they disappear fast. However, she has also classics that everyone can sing along and whistling. And she is obviously not a Madonna, who does himself invented again and again. "
Eric van Tijn see this differently. "They sing ten times better than Madonna. She writes her songs it himself and is very musical. "What do they do? Van Tijn: "In the beginning, of course, they all faded, but now the hype is gone, she has to show her musical abilities. In the dance music she has done so far, she could not lose her. Musicality And they need to focus on now. "It is debatable whether her fans, who she affectionately calls her Little Monsters, there awake at night. They hope today their super idol to the extravagant body to walk in Amsterdam.

Her concert in Belgium last night got a bad review:
2 out of 5 stars
Quote:
The day after her double concert with Tony Bennett Lady Gaga performed last night at the Antwerp Sportpaleis. For the first time she got that room is not completely sold out. Gaga was a long wait, and looked tired and jaded impression. A diva on return.
Lady Gaga in Sydney.
Lady Gaga has something with bubbles. In 2009, at her first show in Belgium ('Poker Face' was just out) was the singer at the Marquee Rock Werchter behind a translucent piano full of plastic bubbles. And she even had a special cellophane dress attracted full baubles. In addition to an expression of her extravagant alter ego is also a nod to the bubbelgumpop she made.
But the bubble Lady Gaga 'seems itself gradually shattered. Where she and her debut album 'The Fame' twice the world went about four times already sold the Antwerp Sportpaleis, they can be a lot less pots break. With 'artpop'
You said, at the Sports Palace last night all the time wondering if this diva still felt good in her role, between her 'little monsters'
The Sports Palace last night was not sold out. Especially in the center square could still people at. The hype surrounding Lady Gaga is waning. That the international press Monday still was drummed up for her double concert with crooner Tony Bennett on the Brussels Grand Place had more to do with calendars and two artists who were coincidentally in the same place than a great performance.
It also seems that Lady Gaga Tony Bennett needs more today than vice versa. Well, there were 2.5 million copies of her latest album still sold. Very much. But compared to the 15 million of 'The Fame' is a big step backwards.
Looking for voice
You said, at the Sports Palace last night all the time wondering if this diva still felt good in her role, between her 'little monsters'. Or "petites monstres" because Gaga hall consistently spoke in French to as Antwerp lay beside Paris.
The diva showed forty minutes long in coming and not. Spared afterwards the confetti cannon From opening track 'artpop the beams shots you around the ears and there are scraps of paper fluttered over the long catwalk. A trick that has been repeated endlessly. Of course, many dancers were also now involved, and made crazy costumes and dazzling choreography sure your eyes are bored any time.
The stage ran with twists and stairs deep into the room, threw back a giant video screen, texts and images. Anyone who did not let distract themselves by open and pulled his ears, frowned. The first hour it seemed as if Lady Gaga her voice was forgotten. In the locker room There was a tape with it, but her voice was barely above the bombastic drums and beats off.
At the same time fell on "artpop 'not the same caliber pop music stand as her previous two albums. The fans wanted to hear especially 'Paparazzi', 'Bad Romance' and 'Alejandro'. Those songs they got too. And of course her breakthrough hit 'Poker Face', which was very early in the set and was followed by 'Telephone'. Matter of quickly throwing. Some nice chunks for hungry lions
*
Can this diva reinvent itself again? Or is the bubble finally shattered, and another "successor Madonna" again brushed aside?
Intimate piano behind
But this was hardly fresh and lively. It sounded very aloof (when Gaga was able to hear well) and the singer looked mostly very tired. Quenched. "If it's tuesday, ceci est la Belgique, oui?"
Only seated at the piano, when in the middle of the Sportpaleis intimate and subdued "(I Need You More Than) Dope 'sang Lady Gaga again briefly returned Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta could be. The jazz pianist from New York that no one knew and no one had eye. Gaga sang fully used, beautiful phrasing and had visibly fun. Without any fuss or guidance. For awhile. Afterwards, the circus was pulled back under way. However, with better singing voice, this time.
It seemed like a duality. Although Lady Gaga repeatedly yelled that "no one's freedom" could take (a message that was meant to the fans) off she is trapped in its own image, its numerous wigs and hair costumes. The layer of gold is clearly bursting.
Can this diva reinvent itself again? Or is the bubble finally shattered, and another "successor Madonna" again brushed aside? The future will tell. In Antwerp yesterday she made few new fans. Between all the costumes (octopus on Pippi Longstocking to pig) was missing one more symbolic: that of a dying swan.

Just because she gets criticized doesn't mean this thread is wrong.
