I've been sitting here thinking a lot about Lady Gaga and how quirky and genius-y she is. I started to wonder how she acted when she wasn't in the public eye and you know, just at home in her mansion chilling, surfing the Internet or whatever. Does someone like Lady Gaga even do things like chill and surf the net? Or is she constantly thinking outside the box and acting wacky and artsy? Does she ever just wear some sweats and a comfy old sweater around the house, or is she always decked out in some elaborate costume that challenges our preconceived notions about what "fashion is"? Is Lady Gaga like a comedian who is always on and being funny? Or, like said comedian, is being funny 24/7 who she really is? Is being a set piece for a really pretentious play all day everyday who Lady Gaga really is? Maybe at one point the lines blurred and she forgot how to be a normal, well adjusted person and the Lady Gaga persona just took over entirely.
I'm worried Lady Gaga's grace period may be over and her honeymoon with the public might be ending. I've read some articles about how people are fucking tired of her bullshit and famous Jewish comedian Jerry Seinfeld even came out and said he "hated her fucking guts and hopes she trips on her absurd, impractical footwear and breaks her goddamn neck and dies." (direct quote) It's like, wow, what's the deal with that? (hehehe) Gags, better be careful, there's this new chick in town who appears to be moving in on her territory named Christina Aguilera. Like Lady Gaga, Christina Aguilera is all about weird-ass costumes, shitty Euro dance music and being sexually explicit, as shown here in this music video.
It looks to me like she out "Gaga'ed" Gaga. If I'm Lady Gaga's PR team I'm calling an emergency meeting and brainstorming some ideas to withstand this backlash/competition. I'm thinking maybe we go the "Kiss route" ala when they appeared on national TV sans their makeup. I suggest to Gaga she ditch the gimmicky costumes and just do a concert as Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta (her real person name). This shows people, "Hey, I'm not just some freak show who needs attention, I'm an actual human being with something viable to say musically." Maybe she releases an acoustic album that gets sold in Starbucks, kind of like Norah Jones. I don't know, but what I do know is, she has to start thinking about reinventing herself, like Madonna did eighty years ago, or at the very least appearing fully naked, legs spread wide in Penthouse or something.
