Maybe so but they weren't the FIRST to be talking about gimmicks up in this thread.

Everybody's got an angle, J.Lo was hardly ever an exception to that rule.

Saying Jennifer's ass was her gimmick is REACHING. The media was the one who always put attention on her ass she never did. She can't help the fact she has a curvy body. If anything Jennifer should be praised for glamorizing curves in Hollywood.

Her ass isn't a gimmick but despite hit movies and hit songs left and right, it wasn't until she showed up at an awards show practically naked that she emerged as a true topic of conversation and a real star.
Gaga lives for gimmicks, no doubt. Fortunately, save for Beyonce (in certain areas only), she's more talented than all her contemporaries so it balances out.

I think you're giving that dress too much credit.
The dress aswell as her relationship with P. Diddy (and well, pretty much all her relationships after that) is what turned her into a tabloid regular but 'Selena', 'Out Of Sight' and the success of her debut album is what really made her a star IMO.

Oh, and for the people talking about gimmicks, just a reminder: JLo didn't become a full-on, bonafide superstar that everyone was talking about until she wore a green dress where the front was basically missing and everything was hanging out. It was widely recognized as her "star is born" moment.
Personally I loved it, and she looked killer, but let's not forget it. 
|
I don't think that's a fair statement at all. She already two huge hits by then: "If You Had My Love," which went to #1, and "Waiting for Tonight," which went top 10.

I know you aren't referring to GaGa, because you've called her talented before  Otherwise this wouldn't fly.
Calling On the Floor original is a bit much, I think it's just good to say it's a hot song.

Gaga had Just Dance and Poker Face that went #1 but she wasnt a star yet. Her VMA paparazzi performance and Bad Romance video made her one, and both were full of gimmicks and thats ok. Every artist has a gimmick, nothing wrong with it. It differentiates each artist from the other.

I'm not saying this to discredit her - Gaga wouldn't be half of where she is if not for her head-turning fashion which makes fans and haters alike want to look. But I was 11, I didn't watch the Grammys, and I still remember how the world talked about that dress. My teacher talked about it the next day. I remember the headlines. Just a quick google search yields results like this:

But anyway this has turned into SYG as a result of an ignorant comment and I'll end it here

TTWE is falling faster than expected. I hope it doesn't drop out of the top 10 for at least 1 week before airplay increases

Nicole you are not being fair to JLO at all, maybe the dress helped her gain more star power, but you can't deny that she was successful prior to that

Ya'll need to sit down. The likes of JLo, Avril, and Xtina don't use gimmicks.
