Icon - VMA 2009
Legend - VMA 2010

Icon? I suppose in 2010 for a certain group..

I don't see her as being a legend

I feel like she started her transition into icon as early as the Paparazzi campaign (mv + performance at VMA).
Then she cemented her icon status with the TFM era (mostly from the Bad Romance campaign (mv + performances)
And tbh I feel like she began her transition into legend-hood with Born This Way era due to its message and its impact. I may have not enjoyed the era but its impact is un deniable.
However she took afew steps back right at the end of the BTW era and transition into the Artpop era. (Artpop era is when I became a stan but I know that it was a era that was not legend-esque)
Ido think she can fix that little stump real quick though. she just needs two more great and well organized era's with fantastic music and she will become an official undesputable legend

icon: BR
legend: dont think it will ever happen

Icon - Paparazzi VMAs
Legend - not yet

Icon: Bad Romance
Legend: never

So Accurate

Since 13 years old.

Since she was born

Icon: The Fame
Legend: Born This Way

not some ppl saying never
guys she has had too much of an impactful career from 2008 to 2012 ish for her to not eventually one day be considered a legend. plusshe may bounce back after the 2013-2014 slight downfall.

Do you really think she'll be mentioned next to The Beatles, Michael Jackson, Stevie, Prince, David Bowie and Madonna because for 4 years she was wearing some weird already forgotten dresses and had one semi-acclaimed EP? Come on now, don't do this to yourself.
