Artists are often judged by their best work (as it should be), so it's no surprise even if people who don't call themselves stans should want to give their opinions, be they positive or negative.

Thats all well and good, except that some it seems would prefer for Gaga to fail so that she is "forced" to go back and do music that she may prefer not to do. If Gaga went off on a tangent that I didn't like, I may not like what she does, but I would not actively hope that she fails just because she isn't meeting my own personal needs. Thats lame, and doesn't respect the artist as a person, but merely as the producer of a particular product.
