Well, you have to look at it this way. Gaga fans would be dragging the song if it were by anyone else but Gaga.
well duh. they're going to drag it because it's not by their fave. It's what they're used to do. This era is greatly changing it, maybe even making the little monsters pacified like the other fanbases.
There are different standards for different artists.
If Ciara debuted with 218K everyone would consider it a smash but when someone who's supposed to be the biggest popstar in the world is selling less than a random girl from a Nickelodeon show there's a problem.
Where has this "Cherry" user been all my life??
And, to answer the question, yes. The other stanbases are doing the most because they know their faves have zero integrity, songwriting ability, versatility, critical acclaim, or global appeal when compared to the queen of pop. It's pathetic and everybody can see right through it and they should just stop.
Also how can you say that as a Marina stan? she's a much better writer than Gaga
It's because we're exhausted of the monsters bragging about her 448k in 3 days and saying that applause will start with 1m+ so obviously it's a disappointment t
