Madonna To Open "Hard Candy" Fitness Centers... →
Has an actual news story EVER sounded more like an Onion article?!!!!!!
Also: I’m Breathless would have been a much better name.

I already have a few ideas for when I’m back - a series on Gaga’s worst moments (done in good humour, of course), the fact that she really did “sell out” to get noticed, and some thoughts on how she relates to Die Antwoord…
But if you have any ideas or requests, ask away! Or just respond here… question mark so the answer option comes up?

I won’t be posting over the next week (a very short break by my standards) - sadly, just as I’m getting into a rhythm, I’ll be churning out far less interesting music-related assignments for uni that NO ONE will read! But I leave you a few things, firstly the best of so far…
An introduction for the newcomers, and the confused… judging from my inbox, there’s a...

WatchHOLY SHIT GUYS, A NEW LADY GAGA SONG/VIDEO*!
(Consider this: truly great art is amazing, regardless of who it’s by. Surely you shouldn’t like anything more or less just because it’s Gaga?)
Some quick thoughts: the song is by far the best she’s ever written - and after only a few listens, it already sounds like one of the best pop songs ever! It opens with just her and a church organ, combining...

I’ll say this again - my last post is in no way a criticism of Lady Gaga. She’s currently 24, two years/albums into her career; Madonna released her fourth album Like a Prayer at 31, 7 years after she debuted. So yes, they’re both Italian-American, (kind of) from New York, make rather intelligent pop music, have provoked/inspired the world with their fashion sense and have huge gay fanbases - but...

anthagio replied: Her intentions aside, the MTV VMAs are all about who can get the most attention, and damnit, I think Gaga won that competition.
The wider public definitely paid more attention to Kanye, and he deserved it - his song and performance were incredible! People’s expectations were high after the Taylor Swift incident, and he easily surpassed them. But the thing is, I found Gaga...

Anonymous asked: What is your opinion on Lady Gaga's meat dress?
obscureyouth-deactivated2011082 asked: I just wanted to say that I love your blog. <3
You completely abolish the haters with your wise comebacks and you truly know your facts.
I dare anyone to mess with you!

anthagio asked: I am a huge Lady Gaga fan, and while I don't worship her like some, I do worship you and this blog. You're genius. The way you express yourself is far beyond what I've ever seen from another Lady Gaga... fan? I presume. People need to stop generalizing and grouping all of her fans into one "cult". I love Lady Gaga and I defend her when necessary. However, I know when...

Anonymous asked: Some of her fans do pratically worship her. One of them even made a effing prayer about her. :/ That's just a tad overboard am I right?

Anonymous asked: Oh okay. I think I summed it up a bit by the name.
Are you saying how Lady gaga is basically worshiped by her fans, and how it's against/not the same/has something to do with Jesus or God in a way?

the-dark-night-of-the-soul asked: Except Lady Gaga constantly talks about her sex life, and about sex and love without ever being sexy or romantic and I don't think that's a conscious decission, I think she's as deluded, or even more, as the people who believe she is the second comming of christ or the savior of pop music. And I don't think you have to be a fan to have a valid judgement on gaga or any other...

the-dark-night-of-the-soul asked: But that's the problem, her music is not great. It doesn't translate. I mean ANYONE can sing Papa Don't Preach and it's going to have some meaning and it's still going to be good because Papa Don't Preach is a masterpiece, of course nothing will ever top Madonna's performance of it, but even sung by Kelly Osbourne, the song still stands. Bad Romance has been...

labellavita29 said: Lady Gaga is disgusting, a naked empress hacking her new clothes around and they are nothing, transparent and fake and non existent and she’s only applauded by idiots.
Ooh, personal insults. “Your opinion is duly noted”, I said dryly, sarcasm so thick you could cut it with a knife. For extra irony, I’m working on a post right now that addresses the...

“I’ve already heard [Gaga’s new album], so I think it’s more or less done....”

Just saying: I called it first.

The most pretentious article ever written. →
Gaga is the new fleurs du mal. It has no conscience and therefore engages in no moral review, but this is apt as we in the Hype(r)(d) modern world have given up reviewing yesterday’s orgasm. Gaga has no romantic roots and therefore can never lead to heartbreak. Marketers have us yearning long past heartbreak. It makes no sense and ends the search for sense with a “Gaga, ooh, la la” that completes...

the-dark-night-of-the-soul asked: I wasn’t calling you an idiot, I was referring to the “monsters” yuck. And yes, I used to LOATHE Britney Spears, I used to think she was the kiss of death of music, and for a while it seemed that way, but after she went crazy and went away for a while, and her music wasn't so overexposed as it used to be, I saw her for what she trully is, a pop genius. Distance always gives...
