I saw Robyn open for Godplay in 2012 and it was a catastrophe. Her shrieking and try hard dancing were awful. The whole arena was dead silent except for these two white gays in the pit screaming all the words and she kept singing directly to them
Gaga wasn't a sexpot, but she def had a cool factor that girls liked
Yeah cause she was a hyper stylish, fierce, fearless bad bitch who would take on anyone. Her body was hot + she hid her face most of the time so it worked. But she can't pull off a stripped down era because of it.
Madonna was hot. That's a huge advantage Gaga never had. When women saw Madonna dressed as a ridiculous disco cowgirl they liked it and wanted to be her because they wanted to be a hot woman like Madonna. Whereas Gaga is an ugly woman so other women don't want to be her. Hence her only being popular when she was either totally hidden behind large glasses and plastic hexagons or when she was telling her audience being ugly was OK.
pft not too much, madeath was always the ugliest of her contemporaries

Madonna has an excellent taste in music and the aesthetic aspect of pop. She knew when it's too much and always kept a cool factor to her music and videos. Of course, once she hit 50 it became impossible to keep up that factor but she still kept it up longer than anyone else.

lol you don't get to where Madonna got without being considered attractive. Basically all of her contemporaries were also beautiful. Most pop stars are. It's extremely rare for any woman in showbiz to not be attractive. If Beyonce or Britney weren't as attractive as they are for example they wouldn't have a career. It helps MASSIVELY. Women want to be you (women are 90% of pop girls audience, remember that). They will buy magazines with you on it. It smoothes over your flaws and enhances your strengths. Beautiful people are treated better by everyone. It's the greatest privilege in life, second only to money.
