    Don't know it, but creative geniuses can be dirty rotters too. In fact, most are.

    And much as I also dislike that video, the fact that you've gone to the bother of starting an internet thread on it shows that the Gagas of this world have suceeded in their aim ,which was to get attention.

    You sir, have lost The Game.

    A bit of both to be honest.

    She is obviously creative but clearly milking it for the $$$. Compromising her "art" i would say.

    Thought she was excellent at first now it's overdone and too try hard.
    I read she refused to remove a veil for security at an airport in the USA so they had to privately search her in a back room, who the f#ck does she think she is loike.

    She is clearly very talented. Nor does she look too bad. I like.

    I suppose I could form an opinion of this Lady DooDaa of which you speak. But then, I'd have to pay her the slightest bit of attention.

    Pass.

    Oh and the telephone video is more like a huge commercial for multiple products.

    What, is she avant garde? She is writing good pop. That makes $$$. Where is the compromise.

    I got 8 within the first minute.
    To be honest I can't her sustaining her career for any more than another year, it's not as if that image can be reinvented convincingly.

    She is? That's great!

    Would you be aware of any plans of hers to release said "good pop"?

    She is talented musically, but the Telephone video is quite overhyped. The story of the video neither matches the song nor does the narrative of it tell a great story that videos getting THIS level of praise would normally contain.

    The GaGa image is the brainchild of a highly talented marketing department and if anything the amount of advertising she's managed to crowbar into this video that masquerades itself as true art proves it.

    She's raking it in, no matter what anyone thinks of her.

    Only an intellectual midget would not realise that Bad romance is great pop. Hence all the awards from people in the industry.

    You one the other hand, are an internet poster.. Your opinion on the thing matters not at all.


    But thanks for sharing.

    She's nowhere near a creative genius. And I have a fairly low opinion of her, although I must admit poker face's acoustic version isn't bad.

    The compromise is quite clearly shoe-horning Beyonce, who just happens to be the biggest thing in pop right now, into a pop video that doesn't really fit with Beyonces style thus far in Beyonces career.

    Do you agree?

    I am a guy. A classically trained musician too. Although it is not how I ply my trade. I listen to next to no popular music, but as it happens I can tell that Gaga ( who is classically trained) is very very talented.

    So far.

    Ok,leaving thread. This is a " I dont like the popular girl" thread. Fine. but not related to talent.

    Insulted, by a Laddie Gaga fan. Oh, my wounds, my, painful, painful wounds!

    I think she is fcuking desperate, change over any time she is on radio/tv etc.

    It's all a matter of opinion though, she just doesn't play the kind of music I like.
    Plus the fact that she is a complete attention whore completely puts me off her.

    She is really, really ugly as well.
    Might be nice if she didn't dress as a tranny, but then we will never know...

    Like I said, she wins considering it's all about attention in the pop game.

    Thanks for ignoring my point Pittens!

    If she was so concerned about her "art" which seems to be her favourite three letter word she would duet with more like minded artists rather than shoehorn whatever is "hot" in pop into her performances.

    Love when people spout stuff like this.

    You wouldn't get near her.

    Aww yeah Angelina Jolie, I might throw her an oul bone alright.
    Just the one though, wouldn't want a relationship with her or anything...
