Netherlands reviews
Quote:
Visitors to the Lady Gaga concert on Tuesday in Ziggo Dome got their money's worth. The singer began punctually, was in good voice, got the audience to laugh and took plenty of time for her fans.
The setting for the spectacular concert was a huge fairytale castle that still form and color changed. The singer exchanged at breakneck pace of clothing, like her dancers. Highlights were a robot costume that looked like a remote controlled and a mini version of the famous meat dress.
Funeral
Lady Gaga was important that her fans are enjoying had. She asked again and again: "Have you a good time Netherlands? ' Sometimes it seemed as if the Dutch public was too tame. Repeatedly she asked them for their "lazy ass" to come. Halfway through the show, she said irritably. "What's wrong with you people? Let see some more effort. It is not a funeral is it? "
Sisters
But Lady Gaga was not only to grumble. She complimented her "little monsters" with their outfits. The singer also spoke to them personally and she took the time to gifts to take. Two sisters, who looked a lot like the singer, and a fan with a pink wig had chosen to sit next to her during the song Princess Die. The sisters were so impressed that they could not stop crying and photos. In all the commotion they forgot even their cameras on stage.
President
In the final song Marry the Night Lady Gaga chose two fans of nine and eleven years to dance with her. From Tuesday hope all little monsters that Mitt Romney the next president of the USA. "If he becomes president I come to you live in Amsterdam," said the singer.

Ziggo is Gaga
AMSTERDAM - Lady Gaga has only her first two ZiggoDomeconcerten sit on it, but has already made an indelible impression. The American pop phenomenon came, saw and overwhelmed Monday.
In Gaga's rise to a two man worn mechanical horse, it was like a bomb exploded in the Amsterdam poparena. The thousands of fans were immediately captivated by their heroine and had heard that too. The star itself bore then stir with a moving, three dimensional holography of themselves and shocked with an inflatable birth canal when her entrance into this world again about doing.
The U.S. brought the best dancers to her first Born Like This Ball in our country. A super tight band, the most lavish costumes and had a large, versatile castle as a backdrop chosen. The first part of her show she sang mostly songs from her third album. Later her international hits Bad Romance, Just Dance, Poker Face and Papparazzi. Most of them were equipped with spectacular choreographies and pounding beats. Some were properly restrained brought solo behind her on a tricycle attached keyboard. But without exception they were impressed and the woman behind all this audiovisual spectacle even more. A beautiful sight gave the Ziggo Dome so totally "gaga" was. The hall will continue, because Tuesday the 25-year-old enters it again.

17 and 18 September had come. Lady GaGa's highly anticipated Born This Way Ball tour in the Netherlands. Her role as Madonna's heir and artistic director of the pop world, she confirmed her crazy observations, confessions, love for fans, creativity and impressive singing voice.
For the fourth time in two years occurs Lady GaGa in the Netherlands with a great and creative concert that is not lacking in artistic expressions. The feeling that her music, videos, outfits, numerous photo shoots and her FAME give perfume, she knows perfectly to convey on stage. Also told them, just like during her first concert, which is mainly a party must: drinking, smoking and smoking dope!
As for program, the audience was surprised by The Darkness, a British rock group that you might know the song " I Believe In A Thing Called Love ". They sang this song exuberant, full of passion and a good dose of testosterone, but the real surprise was the fact that they are much unknown hard rock songs played. A selection that belongs in a concert for fans and certainly not as support of GaGa.
Were thereby GaGa-quality Semi Precious Weapons of her Monster Ball tour in 2010 convincing by their numbers, glitter costumes and eccentric characters.
Before there can be more deeply discussed GaGa's performance it is necessary to pause to consider the place where it all has to take place: the brand new Ziggo Dome, which excels in pure sound and a particular idea of security. GaGa My experience began when we discovered that our places of € 85 were. And so it was practically on the moon, but in the Ziggo Dome they call it 'box 205, row 11.' Obviously I'm certainly not in that position of the pop princess enjoy. So it was no effort by the chaotic security to slip and eventually to a meter for the stage to penetrate.
Decor
And this short distance to the stage was more than necessary to all the details of the large-scale setting to see. The Haus of Gaga had the idea to a castle on the podium places. The static castle served during the show's many songs and was amazing in every song a different look. This was often combined with fascinating technique. So GaGa had a talking robot face of herself floating above the stage. A projection from the Born This Way video clip cases might be. A three dimensional video projection during the interludes (probably meant for GaGa's numerous outfit changes) was used for the show to talk to each other and even her song Paparazzi singing.
Music
Gaga's monsters could go nuts known blockbusters. Obviously, the whole repertoire of Born This Way over, but the crowd went loose on the well-known hits from her previous album: Bad Romance, Pokerface and Telephone. Unfortunately, this relatively commercially put down by singing them and dropping them like the video.
Lady GaGa's real creativity was unleashed in the numbers that do not have video. So she made of Bloody Mary a macabre scene that much reminiscent of the movie Dracula 1979. In Americano she used a meat dress and (meat) Grinder (whether it is a reference to the same application remains a mystery) and during Government Hooker she could from a Ridley Scott film cases.
What is clear is that GaGa was during the acts all her songs very pure and live singing. Of course she Playback moments, but not as much as some other pop stars (like Madonna).
Interaction
"I wish America was more like Holland," she said during one of her many moments of interaction with the audience. She took several fans on stage, thanked the audience for coming and repeatedly praised the Netherlands in heaven: "**** Governments, although I quite like yours" was received and rewarded with wild cheers. She brings sincerely the idea to give her fans. The Haus of Gaga will be trapped next to a group of creative gay people who care for her outfits, make-up, hair, decorations, etc., also consist of marketing people who tell her how she should speak to a large audience. Yet it sounded more sincere than GaGa and made for the honest feeling that you were welcome and could even dream in her world. A feeling that more was confirmed during an emotional confession and live performance of her new song Princess Die.
Artpop
This concert has proved that the princess is almost ready for the crown. The spectacle was staged less than the Monster Ball tour, making it less like a show came about and the more like an intimate concert where everyone was welcome. With this concert, she has her fans in any case more than warmed up for her next album: artpop.

Thousands of fans, or 'little monsters', witnessed a spectacular performance of her tour "Born this way ball'. Almost all Gaga fans got what they came: spectacle and sensation. With a fan in particular. She was on the stage and got the privilege of a few songs alongside her idol sitting.
As of last Friday were the real die-hard fans before the door of the Ziggo Dome Amsterdam to get a good spot for the concert to get. A few hours before the concert was it really penetrate blown by the fences and the thousands of fans rushed inside when the doors opened.
Entrance
A magical, yet gloomy backdrop of a castle looms once the curtains fall. A deafening cheers of the fans, one even more dressed up than the other sounds through the Ziggo Dome. Her entrance (see video below the article) is, as we know from Gaga, spectacular. She enters the stage on a human unicorn. The concert of the pop diva can begin.
Love for her fans
All hits from Gaga will be covered during the 2.5 hour concert and occasionally she knows the audience again quite by surprise with her outfits and show. So it was an imitation of the infamous meat dress from the closet and she wore a bra with two machine guns. Further, as a hologram projected her face and she was during the song 'Born This Way' to put the world by a large doll (see video below article).
The most notable was the love of her fans. Sincere or not, she spoke publicly grateful and told how crazy she is in the Netherlands. "You work so hard and Dutch there I really respect. I am so glad you bought a ticket for my show, "said the energetic Gaga. Also she spoke praised how everyone was dressed. "What do you look great," she cried. "But remember bitches, this is my show," she added with a wink.
Dream come true
Gaga's eye fell on a fan in particular. The singer invited her on stage and gave her some big hugs. "You look like a princess and what a great dread you, I'm jealous that I did not previously have thought," said Gaga told her. The fan had a meter long dreadlock in the form of a chain, and if a number of songs from Gaga's repertoire participate. She also brought gifts for Gaga and the singer gratefully received. The happiness of this "little monster" could not remember.
Little airs and graces
Of course, the mutual love and the greatest fans who stood in front near the stage, got the chance to hugs, posters and letters to the throwing star. Gaga, who has her great love for marijuana had spoken, even got himself thrown into a joint. The 'Mother Monster' took a lifting and threw the joint back into the audience. Question is whether the joint actually came from the audience, since 'everything in can sit. "
Lady Gaga has happy star quality. So she makes her entrance neatly at 20.30 and she asks the audience at every turn if they are having fun. She knows like no other to entertain her fans with shocking outfits and spectacle and as icing on the cake (it would hardly part) she was also very good voice. Compared with Madonna at the Arena in 2008, 1-0 Gaga.

Disaster looming keyboard sounds milling around the hall. Headlights flicker. It wummert, it pumps, it hammering the sinister electro-march beat, while the queen einreitet at 20.45 clock in a martial procession on a unicorn by the dark billowing stage fog. Lady Gaga makes no bones about the fact that this is not just about music.
It is about the celebrated madness to the masses moving work of art, provoke the stir, and will overwhelm. And is quite overwhelming, what the 26-year-old self-promoter since Thursday evening with 12,000 visitors in the O2 World balanced on the stage.
Enormously pompous, abstruse
A huge stage has made her rooms themselves. A pompous knight castle and loopholes and steps, balconies and turrets, in the ground floor and mezzanine floor, the musicians are housed. The long overture culminates in an abstruse Gebärsequenz where Lady Gaga emerges from a kugelbäuchigen vagina that resembles a monstrous chicken. Hands swing up and down to the beat, as the party with "Born This Way" is noisily going. "Berlin," calls them into the hall. "You are the future." It has impaired the amount already in hand.
In just four years, Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta has managed to establish the brand Lady Gaga world. Even someone who does not know its streamlined white prefabricated hits to this exalted art creature with überkandidelten outfits and penchant for controversy calculated. Even in concert, she switches daring wardrobe faster than the drummer can kick his four-four time in the bass drum. Strange masks, eccentric hats, costumes and latex paint, such as clothes from the origami workshop, glamorous gowns, when people want to know rather not know what the designers have inspired their creativity.
The pop icon as aliens
She sings a cappella the cabaret song "Welcome, Bienvenue, Welcome." The "Born This Way Ball" is carried by Technoschnattern machine beats and "Rocky Horror Show" for the dancefloor. With a kind of plot structure, which the pop icon stylized as aliens who flees from the planet GOAT and from Berlin intends to conquer the Earth. keeps popping up as the evil ruler of holography and asks: "Kill That Bitch" It is neither man nor woman nor man, Gaga says in a long monologue for "Bad Romance," it was just all of us. But their pursuers are not far away, they drag up on the battlements, while teaching them the song "Judas" but then again escaped.
More than 90 million records sold worldwide, five Grammys, 27 million followers on Twitter, 52 million Facebook fans - the woman has occupied the throne of pop Olympus years ago. Because unlike Madonna, whose artificial spectacle you could experience at the same place, the younger rival is cheeky, fresh, uncompromising. She is closer to her audience, is snotty, rough and direct, and makes up for in charm and chutzpah, and does not lack in musical genius. That is impressive.
A stage outfit from toilet paper
At about the middle of the show, she's still just driven a motorcycle through the semi-circular catwalk through the audience, she sits down on the bike to a geschnalltes electric piano. She chats with the fans, she receives gifts and letter embassies, a tiara and even a roll of toilet paper. From which they promptly got a new stage outfit tinkering. She accompanies herself on the ballad "Hair," which is reminiscent of Meat Loaf-composer Jim Steinman. And spread the simple message: "It is as easy to change the world, as it is to change your hair." Yes, as simple as that you bring a lucky fan on stage, sings with her "The Princess".
Then, in "You And I" and "Electric Chapel" again swung the electro-rock whips (and the Germany flag). In "Americano" is lost later an unhappy couple between pork. On a bloody couch rotated through the meat grinder bodies she sings "Alejandro" in a topped by two machine guns bra. The scenery can not be absurd enough. Boring at least it will not for a moment.
Stamping Machine Beats
Lady Gaga gives herself caught up and then again quite close, she dances, she screams, she sings with a powerful voice. No, no playback, to bridge elaborate choreography. Provide support for the choir singers. The songs certainly are structurally always quite similar. Imploring intro, verses to a stomping beat machines and polyphonic catchy choruses abbaeske.
Towards the end come meet "Poker Face" and "Paparazzi" and the techno banger "****," hits that bring their purpose, movement on the dancefloor. More than two hours, Lady Gaga celebrates a big party with their Berlin fans who affectionately calls "Little Monsters". Berlin is Gaga's feet. And dances. "Marry The Night" is the latest addition, with the adoption, the fascinating phenomenon. And disappears into the Berlin night.

"Outstanding", "great night", "a show quality", "too powerful" ... Since Saturday night, hundreds of fans of Lady Gaga Unleashed on Twitter to share their enthusiasm after the concert that gave the diva at Stade de France .
At 26 and after only three albums, the singer is the youngest artist to have graced Saturday night at Stade of France . Dancers and musicians move around a huge fortified castle located in the center of the stage and the concert follows a storyline and futuristic novels. Lady Gaga, in the role of heroine to fight "Mother GOAT", a sort of evil twin whose face locked in a cage-shaped diamond floating above the scene appears regularly to advance the story. "I'm not a woman, I'm not an alien, I'm not a man, I am you. I came to find all the information, inspiration, courage, art, music you have, the French people. And when the show is over, I am ready to invade you as a pop singer, "she says in a mixture of French and English.
The setting is spectacular. The American diva with long platinum hair connects the tunes ("Telephone," "Poker Face," "Bad Romance," "Judas", "Born This Way") and costumes at a rate unbridled and transposes on stage with brilliance that made her reputation. She released a cocoon in latex dress white body with a motorcycle is like the cover of his latest album, wriggling in an imitation of her dress meat shows her buttocks fishnet stockings and panties.
Regardless of whether the playback is omnipresent, the public is delighted. Between songs, the singer took the opportunity to hammer home the message of "Born This Way" on self-love and affirmation of their differences. "Whether you're gay or straight, you believe in God or not, maybe you are Muslim, it does not matter. Everything they say about you, you f ... because that's what you are, "says she. Diva also takes care of her "little monsters", thank you for taking the trouble to buy a ticket, inviting a girl on stage the length of a song. It takes a lot of time to admire, not without humor, gifts thrown at his feet by spectators, the most common (T-shirts, stuffed animals, Barbie dolls she dismembers consciously) the most incongruous (even a *****).
The American also increases the declarations of love in France , boasting a Paris postcard where you eat "sausage" and "ham sandwich" humming the chorus of "Padam, Padam" or wrapping around her neck tricolor "as a Hermès scarf." For Lady Gaga, perched on high waders Louboutin is a fashionista. She also enjoys the concert to distill stories about his friends and greet designers Marc Jacobs and long Azzedine Alaïa, who a few days of Fashion Week, made the trip to the Stade de France to see.

Lady Gaga in concert in Paris, it was the highlight of the event weekend before the start of Paris Fashion Week. It came the time to give voice to the Stade de France for the Born This Way Ball and present her perfume Fame, the singer unleashed riots between the capital, crowds, and provocative remarks to the Pope. Increasingly provocative, increasingly hot, the diva that despite significant weight gain still has a fit body.
Continuing her massive tour, the singer has once again attracted the crowds. The Little Monsters at the rendezvous of course, it is given to their heart on stage, whether bare ass or question staging, she dared. Attached to a unicorn for her triumphant arrival, she does what she does so well, to show her nearly 75 000 people.
Better than Madonna and her debacle Olympia, Mother Monster gave fans their money's worth. And between songs, it has to be very close to her beloved monsters, splitting into inflammatory statements: "Whether you're gay or straight, you believe in God or not, maybe you are Muslim, it n ' not matter. Whatever they say about you, you do not care, because that's what you are. "
For when Lady Gaga does not sing, she continues to speak. Invited on Europe 1, has once again given his opinion on homosexuality. "Vive la France, vive la Liberation (...) I support all gay. Hopefully you can love and live together until the end of time. And I hope they have the right to reproduce an entirely equal. " Convinced Lady Gaga has even discredited the words of the Pope, who has spoken out against gay marriage: "What the Pope now thinks of homosexuality, whatever. Nobody cares It (...) It ' not think that all Christians, (...) it is the view of one person. "
One thing is certain, when on French soil, Lady Gaga is far from unnoticed, she even puts overdrive.

Lady Gaga took the stage of France for a unique Parisian date. And as to their usual, Mama Monster fans have responded present and had coated their finery for the occasion.
Thus, in the queue could cross girls drawn mouth way Geisha (as in the clip of Paparazzi), other with cans of soda curled in hair (as in the phone clip), the faces masked by skeletons (as in the music video for Born this way) and of course the colorful wigs. As many say, when it went to the Gaga concert, the eccentricity is marketing because as was itself recalled singer: "this is not a funeral, it's a party". And to be a party, it was a beautiful.
At 20 h 45 (after multiple broadcasts of its fragrance, Fame advertising), Lady Gaga enters the scene, prisoner attached to a makeshift Unicorn. Behind it stands a huge castle that as the show opens, closes, will turn to let her give life to all its eccentricities. The message of the entity that holds is clear: "Kill the bitch". There then everything that made the success of the singer, the lunacy of a girl who is afraid of nothing (and especially not bad taste) like when it comes out of a giant vagina (Yes Yes) to sing Born this way. What her recognize a sense of the show. The dress in meat which had caused so much talk here is reinvented when singer, hanged in the middle of hams to sing Americano before declaring that the women are treated like pieces of meat... and be passed to the chopper.
But this concert, which was held as part of the Born this way ball also celebrated her first album, The Fame Monster. The singer took so Just Dance, Poker Face, Telephone and all other titles that had been her success two years ago, evidence that they are passed to posterity. Sometimes dancing, sometimes playing the piano or the guitar, unlike Madonna who is constantly compared, Gaga is a real talent of the musician. But also a true talent of singer (rare these days), it was demonstrated at the end of the show with a piano and voice of The Edge of Glory.
In the end, Gaga has held 2:20 before returning to the Stade de France 23h (time fixed by prefectural for noise) after holding a speech on the importance of being yourself and have ambition to succeed. This is where the ambivalence of Lady Gaga: swim in the provocation, and both a discourse very focused on the American Dream "When we want, we can." Proof with this fan which will customized t-shirt on which was written: "Invite me backstage" ... and will she succeed before a stunned stadium envy..

Exactly three months ago, on the same stage, Madonna sang this song to draw attention to the similarities with its "Express Yourself". A pathetic gesture in a show that is in comparison to this one "poor" with even mild criticism. But tiring is the eternal confrontation with La Ciccone.

Bombastic concert spectacle: Go, Gaga, go!
Lady Gaga thrilled 12,000 fans at the TUI Arena - read here the concert review.
Hanover. The unicorn is black, which makes it more mysterious than the classic mold variant. A masked lady rides along on the mythical beast, under whose fur people stuck (because a real horse as a prey animal in all of this fuss would be long gone). The procession is hailed with cries of the storm 12,000 fans at the TUI Arena. For here creeps in the shadows of the castle, Madonna's possible heir: Lady Gaga, the (four years) famous Fame, fashion and media monster.
Accordingly, behind the lady and her bearers stands on a gloomy glowing walls, a hybrid of Dracula's Castle and Hanover's new City Hall. The music sparkles at first, then uses a dry rustle electric before it with "Highway Unicorn" goes into danceable. The driving beat fits so not to leisurely hindrömelnden right tour group. And now Lady Gaga sings things like "You rainbow syrup has the heart that she bleeds (from)". What sounds very mysterious, almost like Tolkien on drug, and can play it backwards not to find a hidden message. The false unicorn disappears, meanwhile, never to return.
The next (theater) piece called "Government Hooker" and is about John F. Kennedy and "women who drink their tears." Quite clearly, this one got it right away, goes here to Marilyn Monroe, her secret affair with JFK to comes hypocrisy and also to Roman Catholicism, the Gaga aka Stefani Germanotta, the JFK life and the Monroe temporarily belonged - the denomination of concealment . This time Gaga hides in a monster costume dragonfly dead with one subservient seven horny devil for a tasty cunnilingus. Clearly a pro-Monroe statement.
Then Gaga entirely in yellow born with golden hair from the vaginal zipper of a giant fishnet soup chicken (wow!) to afterwards with eleven dancers whirl to "Born this Way", a song that repertoire down to the metal end even from Madonna could originate. "Let's celebrate!" Exclaims Gaga, and "stand up". And TUI is celebrated, head, survived the total Gaga Mania.
It tells in the wild imband at a distance, it remains largely unclear what will be performed live. And the evil triffts term aged, furious, confused show, in its first half moves to Gaga song by song (what no other disguise avid Star), the story of a volatile verquaste aliens. But only a pale pink thread for this blockbuster. The music comes from the castle wall niches, in which the musicians are. A "fair-techno" sometimes already, you might think the electric rammer, "Bad Romance." The superhero refuels there are too many normal music. And as before dancing Grönemeyer.
The ballads are better. If Lady Gaga a hardcore fan from the front row on the pillion of her motorcycle packed keyboards and "Princess Die" she sings, she lets her voice shine powerfully and dark. Gaga is now right person receives gifts from the monsters in the Pit stage called hole housed hardcore fans and are bold and free from messages:. "The world needs to become more human," We try to do that
The Core: "Be yourself" against Bury and adjustment. Quite contradictory to the parallel listed masquerade, a liberation à la Rocky Horror Show and a bit à la Andy Warhol.
Who proclaimed such, must make sacrifices. In "Poker Face", the overheating, the lady falls into a meat grinder - but the piece comes out again. This thing, it turns out, is as wrong as the unicorn.

Only 20 minutes late, Lady Gaga rides in a futuristic war costume on stage in the Zurich Hallenstadion. It's really? Following "Born this way", where she slips from an inflatable chicken. Yes, it is.
Shortly thereafter, she floats in a long white dress on the circular of stage. To "Bad Romance", she wears a white short-cut plastic outfit and a mask with horns. Against the backdrop of a huge, fairytale Castle the pop icon presents a fantastic freak show, a kitsch art and fashion spectacle a surprisingly mixed audience (age and sex), as Zurich has never seen. Gaga rules!
For the pop parade on the first of two completely sold out concerts in Zurich, Miss Gaga changes her fantasy outfit more than ten times. This allows the singer have become somewhat aromatically quite well to disguise their new curves (see box).
Lady Gaga, sometimes to the point of being unrecognizable masked, presents itself as an impersonal artefact without real identity. Too human problem zones disturb only. "I can be anything, I'll be your everything", sings the garish pop diva. «I'm not human, I am you ", she adds. Lady Gaga, the most important pop artist of the present, is everything and nothing, fantasy product and non-committal projection screen for her fans, her "little monsters".
And the music? The musicians appear in the niche of the Castle. You are a secondary matter. And the music is not more than the bold orchestrated, synthetically pumping Antreiberin of the show the appropriate soundtrack to the stimulus-drenched multi-media extravaganza. This Lady Gaga sings quite well. But she sings really? Doesn't matter! This is a completely unreal spectacle.

Of course, the singer is anything but fat, but maximum normal weight - but at this moment breaks the spell, breaks the distance, breaking even with their own hyper-artificial Gaga machine, which only made it to the mega star, and with which the pop Lady had already an hour had delivered a perfect show
Everything was there: the admission on the black Unicorn, the birth from the vagina of a monstrous originator, the acrobatic choreography of dozens accompanying dancers before dark fairytale Castle, and a cruise on a motorized high designer wedding dress - but nevertheless remained this mega-cabaret, this musical revue of «born this way balls» the self-proclaimed "mother Monster" spooky undercooled, yes somehow creepy: more conceptual or performance art as a show, more catwalk as concert. And the music, more noisy accompanying posturing as the center of events must it schematically always resemble these, anyway no illusions catchy electro-pop Stampfern in the sound-technically difficult indoor stadium.
But now remains only the 26 year-old Stefani Germanotta, who talks about her own, over a decade-long struggle against bulimia and anorexia, about, that she early gets up at 5 o'clock, to spend hours sweating on the treadmill, so that it cuts a fine figure in the evening at their shows on stage. And about her new role as founder of the action «Body movement» their anti-bullying help plant «Born this Way Foundation», where she day before posted photos showing them naked and ungeschminkt, and this prompted fans the same to do than fight against their own insecurity and perverted beauty ideals.
Only a further move of the marketing professionals - or a real departure to new shores? The second part of the evening in any case differs fundamentally from the initial Monster show. Lady Gaga takes time to open fan gifts, to chat with the audience in the front row, and finally bring an a girl (joy completely dissolved) and his family on the stage, after an emotional speech together the ballads «Hair» and «Princess the» to sing - two of the few, thoughtful numbers in the Gaga show, and impressive testimony of the singing skills of Germanotta.
The transformation is complete: suddenly, the Megastar seems very close, fragile and defenceless. At the end thanked Gaga welcome gay and Queer community, remembers her first Swiss appearances in tempo, and asks a few local Drag Queens to be onstage, with which she swaggers laughing on the catwalk of the Hall to the bet to do so.
«I am you, you are Lady Gaga», breathes the-stirred Pop Queen concluded under ear cheering - and unlike before, is it that at this moment not as megalomanische self-adulation, not as the blank area of a chameleon-like icon, but as the actual message "born this way" tour: «Lady Gaga, not me, which is a pure construct for your entertainment».«, a man who is just perfect, just stinknormal like her, a man like anyone else behind the Pokerface.»
Adorned with all her charm and multi-faceted, with all the bling-bling of show business and all fractions of post postmodernism, Lady Gaga is the actual, Quint-essential entertainer and legitimate (POP) voice of the generation. Because in the face of worsening in the Internet age of the principle conflict between the desire for public and the right to privacy, the question provoked «as her ass is thick?» the counter-question: we are not all a bit Gaga?
