I don't like the cholor scheme of the motorcycle opening. Also the backgrounds look cheap during the motorcycle close ups.
And then they come to some sort of party? What's going on exactly? It's unclear - just dark and busy.
She starts dancing and the choreo is BASIC and weak, esp when she has the bandana on. She looks pretty, though.
Then she keeps walking around aimlessly at the party, where everything is still dark, busy and unclear. There are cuts to more weak choreo. The extreme closeups work best b/c Gaga is good at holding your attention.
After that (in a very choppily-edited scene) she holds up her lispstick gun to Judas. OK.
The wave scene looks beautiful but doesn't fully deliver on its buildup - seems anticlimactic.
It ends with some random scenes that don't flow well together: holding a gun, getting beer poured on her ass, the same boring choreo, she gets stoned.

Her performances are weak b/c she's overworked. Most artists will get exhausted from a world tour - it's grueling. Let alone from touring nonstop for 3 years. AND recording 2 full albums during the tour, and promoting them. And insisting on doing much of the work yourself when others could be doing it for you.
When has Gaga ever done intricate choreo? I'd really love to know.
The point about her being overworked is 100% correct. I've said it before, she needs a break, a REAL BREAK. Even during the Idol performance something about her vocals sounded strained. She's going to destroy her voice if she doesn't take it easy.
Honestly, she should've rested after her tour and released BTW in November.
I honestly believe this performance is one of her best. Her voice + her dancing = wow.

Do you know the story of Judas? "I don't understand the video" =/= "the video is weak."

I loved that performance too, actually. But I still think she's in serious need of a break. It'd be good for her musically, commercially, and probably personally too.

You don't necessarily need intricate choreo for it to be memorable. Example: BR. WTF was the Judas choreo? She holds up her hands in the shape of a heart (you'd think Taylor Swift choreographed it) and then points to the left and right. Even the EW review of the video singled out Laurieann and said she FAILED with the choreo.
GaGa is tired she needs a break, and i think she hasn't stop since 2008, because she is afraid of desappear and not be memorable, and i think that's her biggest fear to be honest!

Try again.
No, please enlighten me. Isn't it just about some boy named Judas that Lady Gaga had a crush on back when she went to Sunday school (hence the song's Biblical references)? And he cheated on her?

Well you said it was basic, so I assumed you were wanting her to turn out some Beyonce type ****. But I guess I understand your point. I happen to prefer Judas over Bad Romance in regards to choreo.
I think EVERYONE in Gagas camp is working at 2000mph and they need to really slow it down, everyone is showing weakness even the dancers. Thats all Ill say for my nights rant.

im not gonna lie, i usually like the choreography that she does but i dont really like judas's. its a bit too simple imo.
Her performances are not getting better! the AI performance was a total fiasco! the lighting, the sax, the stupid ballet dance, and that stupid fall from the "edge".. her vocals were amazing though and her outfit too!
GMA? it was awful too, except for the acoustic version of Hair, it made me love the song (i hated it)
Ellen.. omg for one second i was like please god make gaga to say that it was a joke and she's going to start the real performance all over again!
SNL.. she ruined everythng when she stopped singing TEOG for Judas i almost died, even though she improved a lot her dancing! The bitch needs to get over Judas it's not going to happen (even though it's my second favorite song from the album)
Her only good performances on this era was the grammy's one and TEOG performance on that bbc show in the UK!
Bitch needs to start doing stuff like the stuff she did on the VMAs, MuchMusic, Brit Awards, Taratata, etc, those were magical performances!
But in regards to her taking a break I completely agree. Especially vocally considering damage done there can be permanent :V. At least a month should be taken to just chillax.
“There are a lot of artists who put out number one single after number one single,” says Lady Gaga, in her hotel room hours before going on stage for an impromptu one-off performance of her newest hit single, Born This Way.
“But they don’t sell any albums,” she adds pointedly.
