yeah but how much backing (financially) does it take to move a GaGa product nowadays?

meanwhile you have an artist like Adele thats selling like hotcakes and all she needs is a mic and a chair.

I think he said too much, but it isn't like it is unwarranted from a strict business perspective.

I'm not saying she's getting 300% return rates or anything on her endeavors, but don't you think her touring ##'s help a bit? I'm sure she makes more than enough to pay off touring expenses and still has a bunch more cash leftover.

Le blasphémy.

It's not the essence of what he said but HOW he said it. In the business you're clearly nothing but a pawn.

But this has always been true. He simply made the mistake of being vocal about it.

and where is he now?

[pinktennisfreak]

Omg! She was a product from the beginning. How sad.

Yes. Which is why I made this thread.

I personally believe she should say **** the labels. She has the power to be successful on her own. It would be a major power move on her end but she has to make that decision.

I didn't say that it was different now. I'm just stating it.

Well, he has enough money to retire, so I think that's pretty good.

GaGa is an it. It's a brand. It isn't her real name. It is an act. Something to sell...

and for the people commenting saying "Where is he now?"

He's still collecting money. It's a business. He doesn't have to hop around on stage or be thrown up on for a dollar. He's investing and making his money as he sits back and laughs at the fools.

Really gross. He basically tried to use her.
He needs a good punch in the face.

[Ghost]

He stays irrelevant.

Are you stuck in 2010 tho? It's not an act. Gaga is her expressing HERSELF.

It's not about being irrelevant, it's about money. Who cares if you're irrelevant if you have a ton of money? That's actually better imo

[Chrome]

So, is it confirmed that he backed out after the BTW era or nah? Because, on the Konlive page, I see everything but ARTPOP.

What

This is less about Stefani Germanotta and more about the GaGa brand.

By this logic I can say "She shouldn't have started out as an act then"

tada.

Smh! People can be so cynical towards each other just because they're In a business. They're still human. Whether or not he has tons of money left, he clearly made his own judgements on ending their deal before he felt it was "too late". But to try to spin that on Gagas vomiting act and to say that she HAD to do that is ridiculous. She's got enough money to make her own decisions right about now anyway.

I cashed out, in other words I sold my share

What does this mean? People have shares in Lady Gaga?

But he isn't in those girl's teams, that's my point, he's managing Jeffrey Star...
