Honestly, it's absolutely ridiculous to base your opinion of a Pop artist off of their fans.

I never said it was okay. But not being okay doesn't stop it from being reality. It also doesn't have anything to do with Gaga personally. This is the Internet. More than that, it's fan base/single fans against another fanbase. It's annoying.
And what's actually ridiculous is to say that people against Gaga or any artist are haters or trolls. You can be critical without having an ounce of hate toward somebody
My mother and aunt were more outraged at Gaga winning than anybody on this site. Both being fans of AHS, they felt that Gaga was a huge letdown on her own and considering that she was essentially replacing Jessica Lange. It is completely fair to say she didn't deserve the GG when even a lot of her fans say that she only shows momentary brilliance and the general consensus is that she's bad at worse and passible at best. Kirsten Dunst for one, gave a performance that I never would have expected from her.
In closing, it's fine to ask whether public opinion has changed in her favor but it's a bit ludicrous to act like she still holds the cultural significance she did in 2010 or even 2013. The issue requires critical thinking. But that's for another time
