Sis please, I'm not the only one here looking at this Venus director with worried eyes. She needs something brighter, especially for a sex-based track. No one is here for guns being birthed out of her breasts somehow, while she sings about going into your bedroom.
Sorry fans like you have learned to accept messy editing and overly dark, incoherent videos
..and nobody has even seen the video, it's colors, or it's concept.
Why can't she use REAL video directors anymore? That know more colors than black, gray, and whatever else can be associated with death and despair?
The whole TEOG Joseph Khan mess probably left her wanting to be in total control of her videos. Hence why she ditched Laurieann, directed MTN herself and did Applause with photographers she was already working with.
Why are people calling this a meltdown? We're just looking at the VENUS director's past work and hoping whatever she comes up with Gaga is different.. Or at least brighter.
