This latest mega-show may have connected with fans more intimately than any of her previous tours, she says, something she found especially gratifying considering the sniping around Artpop upon its release that it was a “clinical” record. “With that album it’s like I was creating my own acid. Acid is a synthetically created drug, in laboratories, and I created a synthetic musical drug for myself to survive my life. But then as I travelled around the world I met more and more kids that were fully ****ing Artpop to the wildest galaxies of their dreams. Kids whose whole lives were changed by the album. You know, Planet Venus is a place that they go in their minds when they are at home, to escape their family life, their troubles, their depression.” https://www.yahoo.com/style/the-many...645288063.html
When did she say this though? She hasn't been thinking about ARTPOP since the end of artRAVE and she wouldn't be talking about it because she's focused on C2C and LG5.
She may have said this around the livestream though since Yahoo did that?
Although I've never done acid, I understand and agree completely with her. ARTPOP is like a drug and does provide an escape from reality through the combination of ART and POP.
It's exactly what Gaga would say... like there is NO DENYING.
