Strangely enough, most of the reviews I've seen for the Born This Way video seem to be much more openly positive than those for Bad Romance. I feel like the Bad Romance video got the acclaim after the fact when people started to realize it changed music video history.

James Montgomery of MTV praised the overall concept of the music video. In a review, he went on to write, "'Born This Way' [...] is quite the spectacle. Part space odyssey, part creationist yarn, it involves the formation of not just an entirely new universe, but an entirely new race of humanity, too. It sort of makes sense, it sort of doesn't, but that 100 percent doesn't really matter much. This is Gaga at her most fabulous, her most out-there, her most, well, Gaga."[98] In conclusion of his review, he wrote, "It's part fantasy, part hopeful reality. It's about the future and the past [...], but really, all of that pales in comparison to the sheer spectacle of the thing. And that sort of makes sense, because after thoroughly dominating this world, with 'Born This Way,' Lady Gaga seems content to create brand-new worlds to tower over. Welcome your new overlord."[98]

Myrddin Gwynedd of The New Zealand Herald said that Gaga "takes her penchant for eccentric and provocative imagery to the extreme in the video for her new single".[101] Raphael Chestang from Entertainment Tonight praised the video: "From sexy in lingerie to morbid in tuxedos, Gaga and her dancers give a dazzling performance in this new video".

scar Moralde from Slant Magazine noted that in the video, " Gaga fully embraces the monstrous as a part of her. She has acknowledged her role as Mother Monster before, but never to the visceral, fully embodied extent that she does here. The things that are monstrous, the things that are different—for Gaga, those are the things that are beautiful."

Megan Powers from Time criticized the video saying, "It was just this past weekend that NewsFeed wondered if Lady Gaga had lost her knack for shocking us. Then, showing us just how wrong we were to doubt her, she debuts her video for her newest single "Born This Way" and we must admit that Gaga is still so very, very strange.
|
The only negativity I've ever read about the video was that it is a Madonna rip-off, and we all know what train those reviewers were riding...

Either Born This Way or The Edge of Glory will get nominated. Probably BTW, unless TEOG video is really good.

Gaga needs to hype the TEOG video! 
I don't know why she didn't hype the BTW & Judas videos..

This is true. She needs to pull something amazing out of her ass for TEOG. I'm not holding my breath though.

i was just reading some articles on redone, i had this epiphany that his songs has great ability to stick on chart top ten like glue for weeks, whether they are for gaga or jlo or enrique. Judas was a bad luck because of this hypocritical world, otherwise every song is chart stomper. I really hope nothing is wrong between gaga and redone or if there is they should patch up. He is incredibly talented there is no denying in that. And knows gaga's pulse like no other. Though i'm starting to like dj white shadow's bloody mary, hooker and chapel or black jesus... I like fernando but redone music is modern and boundary pushing. Thats all. Pls dont barrage me if you dont agree...

The VMAs are gonna be a mess - the best videos were for flop songs and the smash hits had basic and/or bad videos

I'm starting to think that Firework might have a better chance of winning the VOTY than any of Katy's other videos.

I'm looking forward to the MMVAs and VMAs performances. I think these are the only two shows where she has to deliver a really great performance and she wouldn't mess them up like she did with at the grammys. but maybe I'm only saying that because Gaga hasn't performed there since 2009

Now if only it would start getting some traction on Rhythmic. How did stuff like Firework perform on that format? Anyone know?

It's On AC Top 50 Now Too 
Big Radio Hit In The Making?
Gaga Usually Doesnt Make It On AC At All Or, She Doesnt Do Well On That Format, And TEOG Is Already Getting Spins

From the Gaultier video:
"Troy Carter is a known producer. When he discovered Gaga, he contacted his friend RedOne, known for creating many hit records."
Lies!
