Great article, thanks for sharing.
The hysterical negativity surrounding Gaga this past week has been a bit silly. Some people seem very quick to forget that despite her single not doing absurdly well right out the gate (the standard people are apparently holding her to these days), she's still a fantastic performer, an album/ticket-selling beast and a pop culture behemoth, and it will take a lot more than a slightly under-performing single and some controversy to take her out of the game.
