Let go of the past... Live in the present.

A generic pop star like Stefan is only as big as his last hit.

His fan base is also as big as his last hit.

With each flop it gets smaller.

Ok, present fact, Gaga has 5 Grammys, how many does Lana have.

Present fact, Gaga has 14 VMA's, how many does Lana have, no seriously, how many does she have, does she even have one.

Cleopatra will be one of the biggest films of the decade.

I know Umbrella, Local Ladies, Global Romance, WFL, Firework (tho BTW had more votes than Firework in Best Female Video so Firework only won because BTW wasn't nominated for VOTY) are VOTY. Forgot who won 2012 tho

"Single Ladies" lost to "Womanizer" in Pop Video but won against it in Video of the Year. Bruno Mars and Justin Timberlake split Male and Video of the Year...

All three of those films were better-reviewed than "Maleficent."

The obliviousness of it all is the punchline. "Maleficent" was successful because of Disney, not
because of Angelina Jolie and her horrible acting, not to mention the horrible, critically-panned story.

Conversely, "Gravity" was successful because of the original story and incredible acting.

Not when Disney itself credited Angelina.

Variety: Maleficent is a sign that even in an age where bankable actors and actresses are an endangered species, the name above the title still carries weight.

“Angelina Jolie is a very big part of the overall equation,” said Dave Hollis, Walt Disney Studios’ executive vice president of theatrical distribution. “As a star, she’s a draw that transcends culture and borders and language. There’s a universal nature to the intrigue she creates.”

We know this.

Before BTD ha voice was high. BTD low and now she's back to high again with UV.

I knew her image was even more contrived than GaGa's but I didn't think she changed her voice as well that's all.

Lana Del Rey’s Updated Classic Helps Build Buzz for ‘Maleficent’:

The trailer was conceived by Disney’s senior marketing VP Jackson George, who showed music president Mitchell Leib two versions: one traditional and very “Disney,” says Leib, the other a “moody piece with the song from ‘Sleeping Beauty’ turned into a twisted children’s nursery rhyme — like a horror film.”

Leib loved the latter spot, and envisioned Del Rey performing a polished version of the song. The Grammy-nominated singer — whose haunting “Young and Beautiful” became the signature refrain for last year’s “Great Gatsby” soundtrack — jumped on the idea and churned out a near-complete “demo” in four days (performing the finished vocal over only a single note and click track).

The original song, by Jack Lawrence and Sammy Fain from Tchaikovsky’s melody, “was such a happy, upbeat, skipping-in-the-fields track,” says producer Daniel Heath, who conceived the arrangement. “It was hard to make it dark and spooky.” Heath flew to London where the film’s score was being recorded, borrowing composer James Newton Howard’s orchestra and boys’ choir to flesh out his cinematic production.

Google Play was given a sneak peek of the trailer, and partnered with Disney to do a free download promotion of the song for nine days — resulting in 352,000 downloads

“It’s kind of a miracle,” says Leib, “because when the spot ran during the Grammys, the card at the end that says, ‘Go to Google Play for a free download’ wasn’t up there for half a second.” The fact that Del Rey’s vocals seem to emanate from Maleficent herself was completely unintentional serendipity.

“It’s magical working with Lana,” says Heath, “because everything just tends to align.”

Lady Gaga's former assistant Jennifer O'Neill has signed with Atria Books to write a tell-all book about the musician.

This is going to be amazing.
