Lady Gaga did a few things these past few days to remind me why I stanned for her in the first place.
People were saying that EW has been unnecessarily harsh on her lately, but that's not the case. They were simply being truthful. And I noticed that these past few days, they've been much kinder. Not because they have an agenda for/against her, but because she's been cool, fun & charming.
On Letterman: "Her chat with Letterman was an instant classic."
Anyone who's ever watched Letterman knows that he's a troll (with a sense of humor) and that his best guests are the ones who show him that two can play that game. And when he asked about her mask, I half-expected some awful Meat Dress-type explanation like, "it represents how the government masks the truth about gay inequality...and that's actually what my song Government Hooker is about!" Instead, her response was perfect.
On SNL: "Lady Gaga proved to be a delightfully game addition to a number of sketches. It was impressive to see the way she managed to transfer her outlandish music costumery into her sketch performances without seeming ludicrous. Instead, she came off as the most approachable of arty music stars."
Simple, charming, fun, charismatic and not exhaustively try-hard. A real star (which she is) needn't try so hard. In fact the only time she fell flat was she opted for gimmicks - that ridiculous pregnant belly.
On The View: "With this and her SNL stint over the weekend, I think she’s solidified herself as possibly the most unpretentious pretentious popstar ever."
Truth. Except for the still-cringe-worthy bullying lies.
They were too kind on her album, though. You can tell from their early thoughts last week that they liked it less than they admitted today, but would rather have her in the pop music world than out, so they went easy on her. It's not worthy of a B+.
EW has been spot-on this era, telling it like it is. Stars Stans are blind (Fernando shoutout, since Gaga likes him so much, though he's best suited for the likes of Paris) and I'm not here for that.
Also, my farewell post will come when I say. Even then, I'll return when/if I please. Cher can go **** herself. 
P.S.: Nearly 2 years on Twitter, nearly 40K tweets devoted to her, and she decides to follow me the night I drag her? |
Back once the sales are in. Interesting

I wonn't cry for you, I won't crucify the things you do 
It's like when you have an annoying sibling that you hate most of the time but will fight for when you need to.
