I think when LADY GAGA was focused only on music, she was able to top the charts, I thought paparazzi was gonna be her 3 number one song, but after that outrageous performance at the VMA last year with all her outfits changes during the ceremony, I said this girl just los it..now she is everywhere, but a singer who is not as outstanding as her like RIHANNA has had 2 number one songs in the same period of time where GaGa has only had a number 2 and 3 songs in spite of having really well done videos for those singles and all the media buzz surrounded them.
I think she is OVEREXPOSED and is trying too hard to be the next best thing.
I prefer the GaGa from JUST DANCE and POKER FACE days.
and I think most singers who comes from the underground dance electronic music scene are into that….but I agree with George’s mother. she must feel the next Michael Jackson or something.
ONLY BY READING HER IN TWITTER AND FACEBOOK ONE CAN REALIZED HOW FULL OF HERSELF SHE IS..I followed her in both and I deleted cos it didnt feel good to read her indulgent and vain comments..
You twitter and facebook…you just lost credability there bub!
its sad really…she has everything-the world at her feet. and yet she still feels the need to get high to make it through life. what a waste.
that s the problem. she s got the world at her feet..this is what makes some ppl feel they are invincible.. and they certainly are not. they are like the rest of us..with the same hang ups, the same fears.. the same fears of rejection..etc..except the world’s transient adoration makes them feel as if they are not human anymore..that somehow the stuff that affects us will not affect them… of course that s just being like an ostrich..with your head in the sand…
What kind of garbage is that? Why are you casually making comments about how much cocaine you use to the press? Seriously? Do these people not keep anything to themselves nowadays? Why does everything have to be out in the open for everyone to know about? LG has young fans and while I’m not saying she should be responsible for what they do, how confused are kids gonna feel when they’re being told drugs are bad and then this person they idolize is saying she does a little so it’s okay. Drugs can destroy lives. What starts off as casual use can spiral in to a living hell and I cannot believe I hear people on here trying to put a positive spin on it. Exstacy can be addictive and dangerous. It makes your body temp go up and you can dehydrate. These substances are screwing with your body’s natural flow and it can mess you up really bad. I’ve known plenty of people who put their drug use above everything else and thought that it was just good fun but it’s not in the long run! Gaga needs to stop doing and saying stupidities for attention cause I’m all for being a flashy stage performer but this is just tacky and desperate!
Entertainers aren’t supposed to be role models. It doesn’t take a village to raise a child, either. Grow the heck up.
you don’t have to agree with anyone but how about accepting the fact that even though entertainers aren’t supposed to be role models, yet they still are.
perhaps YOU are the one who needs to grow up and learn that this world is full of individuals with unique ideas and opinions.. you don’t have to share theirs but at least be respectful of others if you want them to be respectful of yours.
I totally agree w/Boy George
A pop star who uses cocaine! Shocking! Next you’re going to tell me that television can be in color too!
You must be really screwed up when Boy George is calling you out. I want to like Gaga, but she has a dark and twisted side that I cannot get over. She’s sick and I pity people who idolize her. They need more help than Caca.
I care what comes out of Lady Gaga’s mouth because she is very influential at this stage in her career and there are a lot of younger girls already trying to emulate her with the big eyeballs, etc. I just hope the “occassional use” of cocaine does not influence these girls as well. Lady GaGa may think she is uninvincible right now but she does have a responsibility to her most ardent fans, young girls. I think she is a marvelous talent. But I just hope she was only joking about the drug use. We parents have enough problems with our kids as it is.
I agree…dog, dog, dog!!!!
Why is boy george even commenting on this? Why in God’s name does a washed up, no talent, “artist” like Boy George even think its his right to question what Lady Gaga says and does. I mean in not even a GaGa fan, but I think he should go back to staying under the radar and keeping his mouth shut.
see, boy-george…
meh…who cares. whatever she does is for attention…so why should this be any different?
