Well, her collaborative efforts that she has put out for other artists (Video Phone, Chillin') haven't exactly been well-received commercially. And that's if they even make it to be put out (like The Greatest Thing and Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe weren't).
So it would make sense if she made it a general rule to never collaborate with anyone who isn't twice her age.
She didn't even try to make the collaborations you mentioned happen (Rihanna also had flop collabos/features in the beginning)
She is doing a skype session with fans tomorrow and everyone can watch via ustream at 5pm EST. Supposedly the initial anouncemeby said to discuss new music but it was quickly deleted. Its also probable someone made that up. We're hoping that if she doesn't anounce anything a fan will ask her however who knows for sure.
I am fully expecting her to side-step questions about ARTPOP. "It's coming, monsters your gonna love it." and then ramble on about the Born Brave bus....
I mean what else can she say about the born brave bus or the foundation I mean come on it's getting real tiring now. I like Gaga the pop star not Gaga the philanthropist although I do appreciate and respect her ambition to make the world a better place but can she do that after she spills the ARTPOP tea
The only reason she's doing it is to talk about the BTW Foundation and Born Brave Bus.
I love her but the bitch needs to stop putting her Philanthropy before her Music.
What a stupid thing to say. She is constantly working on new music and her music always comes first. God forbid her care and want to talk about something good.
