I know she basically made my fave but why do people stan for Bonnie McKee, as in, her own music?
To piss off Katy Kats. I keep saying, if she was an actually decent songwriter she would have seen some success in her many attempts like Sia and ryan Tedder did.
In 2010, the idea of these two women joining forces was an event. They were atop pop’s Olympus and, musically, met more than once in the culture’s ample middle

Half a decade later, the world has changed. These two women have changed. Beyoncé now has an astronomical lock on the world’s attention. We orbit her.
Quote:
This iteration of Beyoncé’s fame is what Gaga seemed to be joking about at the start of her career — this traffic-stopping collision of egotism, bravado and pure power, of commanding attention and getting it. All of it. Rihanna released a record last week but I had to remind myself that it existed. ()
Quote:
Meanwhile, Lady Gaga seems content to be past.
Her work now is like a long-term art project that’s put 50 years on her persona, and at 29, she’s five years younger than Beyoncé.
Quote:
If this is “art-pop,” as Gaga’s last album was called — trying out nostalgia for eras in which she never lived, tearfully accepting a Golden Globe for her work on “American Horror Story: Hotel” playing a version of the winking grotesque creature she started as — it seems designed to keep her out of the mainstream fray: away from Adele and Rihanna and her former collaborator Beyoncé. Lady Gaga has aged herself past what’s trending. She’s willfully become the living embodiment of what’s trended.
