didnt she just cover NME magazine or something? Id gag
right she covered NME and they've been stanning hard for her this era which is really weird

(...) Reading reviews in the countdown to its arrival, people are saying the same thing, yet again: 'she's over, Artpop was the best', 'it's just fine', 'she should stick to living for the applause'. What is confusing about these upbraiding reviews is that these are the same critics who tore apart Artpop like hyenas would a meat-dress.
