Ugh. She looks so over him. I hate these little rich kids who follow her around everywhere and have met her like 50 times and feel so entitled to whenever they wait for her.

I know it's easier said than done, but if you judge Gaga's success by others then you're in for a bad time.
There will probably always be SOMEONE smashing whilst she isn't, but that doesn't mean she can't and won't succeed herself. If she's lucky, she can have a second/third peak that rivals the initial Gaga phenomenon, but that doesn't need to happen any time soon to validate her. Madonna, Cher, Kylie etc. had years inbetween their peaks, and when you consider they had to be around for DECADES to experience that and Gaga's only been here for 5 years - I hope that puts things in perspective. Don't rush the girl. A major part of achieving that re-peak is to grow into a new phase in their career - a new look, sound and direction. That comes with time and experimenting. Time is also a healer in terms of the public/media wanting them to come back and smash - we're still coming down off of a phenomenal peak, they won't want to immediately start the climb to another with her so soon.
Ultimately, Katy is going to do her thing and she'll do it well, but I really don't see - even with her stans - that people treat or respect her success in the way that they did with Gaga, Adele and Beyonce. She's fun. Light relief. Put it this way - Big Bang Theory slays ratings as the most watched show in America, wins awards etc etc. but people rave about Game of Thrones and Breaking Bad. They have cult followings and kudos as cultural phenomenons that changed the game.
