General observation, Gaga is actually one of the few popstars who can survive a major flop.
She's creatively self reliant, which means she doesn't need her label to shell out the big bucks to hire hitmakers...which they're increasingly less likely to do if you're losing them money. Plus, if your name is losing value, hitmakers may be less inclined to jump on your sinking ship as their value relies on making hits. You fall down the ladder depending on how much money is available, with artists who have bigger funds taking first picks of the hits, leaving you hoping to luck out and get a hit others passed on. The downward spiral continues because the only other way out is for labels to invest more to buy you the best to pull you out, but they're more likely to invest into new artists.
That's why popstars fall into obscurity, even if they were huge, but Gaga isn't in that boat. She could write the smash comeback song at any moment without spending a dime. Hell, she could produce it too with some more practice. In the labels eyes she'll be a high profit to spend artist and worth supporting.
Others aren't so fortunate. If they go down, they will need sheer luck to pull them out. So much of their profile is based on being hot as well, so it's only a matter of time before stocks plummet and the labels find a new sexy pop girl.

I was hoping she could break the Beetles record of having 4 albums nominated for album of the year or whatever with ARTPOP but I guess that's not happening
I've been trying to look into ARTPOP getting a comprehension of the entire concept.
I've finally managed to watch the interview with Miranda Sawyer and I would like pursue the question regarding the art in and on ARTPOP.
Are they any videos or transcripts of the fan Q&A at the album premiere in Berlin?
I would love to know what she answered to the question why ARTPOP could mean anything? Does anybody know? Good ivi sis, do you remember?
