Gaga's image building is flawless right now, she's literally doing EVERYTHING I listed as things she needs to rebuild her positive image, like a new fragrance, fashion campaign, side projects and collabs like with Queen YAS Bobby, let me root for you
I came on to post about Bobby and y'all already stanning.
But seriously, their planning and execution for a jazz album is perfect. Makes me realise what a bigger mess ARTPOP's handling was. And I love how they aren't going all out promoting before and during album release week, I mean Gaga and Tony haven't even performed on TV yet. The biggest promotion is coming the months after the release - Arts Festival in October, a H&M commercial in rotation on TV during November pushing the record (perfect for that Black Friday boost), a Taregt exclusive (hopefully with a commercial) alongside the five other versions of the album, etc... Not to mention, Gaga seems a lot happier lately.
A new fragrance and fashion endorsement deal around the same time she drops her *hopefully* acclaimed jazz album while she continues artRave set to gross $100M. Perfect. Bitch is coming for Forbes 2015.
Excited to see how Bobby and LiveNation will contribute to Gaga's next solo era staging her pop comeback. Now all we need is Gaga to deliver flawless music.
Is this real?
Can someone please confirm this. Nothing would give me more joy than her starting to fight for herself again. None of that kindness crap.

I can't tell, I searched for the users Instagram but it doesn't come up
OMG, Gaga is getting dragged left, right, and center for that performance with Queen, check twitter, their facebook, fanpages, and youtube comments
It's just a bunch of 12 (or 40) year old hipsters who think that listening to old rock music makes them above everyone else and that everything mainstream and new is terrible,don't mind them
New team? I hope you do realize Bobby used to bring Troy his tea. There won't be that much of a change in terms of management. Anyhow, the change has to come from within. It's Gaga who needs to change, not her management (it's Troy who said ARTPOP sucked hence why he got fired for basically speaking the truth).
Let's not. It's Troy who rang Pigrez to "apologize on Gaga's behalf" because she answered his nonstop onslaughts from Twitter, and only because he was trolling her by putting bids on apartments at her building when she was in LA. Gaga surely has a few high-horse problems, but lets not act like Troy is the innocent do-no-wrong manager in this ala Jenniferella. Even if he did think ARTPOP sucked, it's not his place to tell Lady Gaga, the artist he works for. That's her job, she judges her music along with her producers for better and for worse.
Troy obviously knew fine well what ARTPOP was and I'm sure he helped make it what it became.
Do you REALLY think Gaga independently thought about working with T.I, Twista, Too $hort, Rick Ross, Will.I.Am and even Kendrick and Azealia? I could buy the latter two, but the others? Even if Gaga wanted to go urban, why would she pick them? Surely she'd go to Kanye, Jay and Drake...or at least people who have had hits this decade. It screamed of Troy going through his iPod, trying to recreate the Just Dance ft. Akon and Starstruck ft. Flo Rida to get some Rihanna crossover success.
I also find it very hard to believe she independently picked up DWUW off the cutting room floor and thought of R Kelly, who just happened to be about to release a new album.
Who knows how far it went.
I wouldn't be surprised if part of the drama between Gaga and Troy was that he directed her to create this "smash album" and threw it under the bus when it missed the mark.
