And she’s gotten even more famous and successful. She has solidified herself as a true pop culture icon and probably the greatest entertainer of the 21st century. (Songwriter, singer, actress).
Agustin Alvarez that’s debatable, but to each their own. Personally I think they’re both absolutely fantastic entertainers, I just prefer the more out there things Gaga does in her performances. Beyoncé is incredible though don’t get me wrong. :)
correction - she does not wear the clothes for solely "attention". its her creative vision through spirit. her expression is out of purity, not neediness as much. it is intentional attention seeking, but strategically as an authentic artist. and she helped others find themselves while making millions. props to her!
Yes and no from what she says here in these interviews. Her Vagus Show is kind of a way to work and have time off at home. The show is called Enigma and man that's what she is. She's masked and she's open.... at the same time! A multi talented full time all round performing artist. "People take me both way too seriously and not seriously enough" - my new favorite Gaga quote. ✋✋paws up
BOTH. She is a real artist who is ALSO a marketing expert. She knows how to work every angle of her career and fame. There's a reason why people only ever talk about her music, her fans, her fashion, performances, etc. Not her family, friends, you don't see photos of her drunk at clubs etc
She is a helluva a lot smarter than I would have imagined. I'm tempted to use the word prodigy, except she obviously is smart enough to have manufactured this persona on her own which means it's all calculated. That's genius and requires massive effort, even for a prodigy. Impressive at any age, much less 24 years old.
***** Capacity and desire are not the same thing. I can't really say I ever desired to be famous, or even strived to be for that matter. Acknowledging someones drive is only offensive to those that envy. I do not envy the woman, in fact I haven't thought about her since I made this post. Maybe a mirror would do you some good.
Gaga is the shit, you can hate if you want, but she still wins with her message of self love and acceptance. I am not a huge fan of her music (it's composed great, I love when it's stripped down to just her and her piano, but the extra production just isnt my thing), but how anyone can be against what she stands for is beyond me.
She might not be a classic beauty. However she is cute, sexy, intelligent, positive, self-confident... To me she is the hottest damned woman in the world! In another life I swear I will marry her!!!
Lady Gaga's music ain't my cup of tea, but you can't deny that she is an incredible vocal talent, a better-than-average piano player, and a brilliant performer. Again, I hate her music, but Jesus, she's talented as Hell.
You are a rare critic, indeed... You may not be a fan of her music but, you're honest about her talents... Most haters are blind to the truth; even if, it's the loudest voice in the crowd... Well, spoken...
I remember my 60 tear old dad watching this episode and telling me (who at the time thought it was cool to hate her *shame on me and internalized misogyny*) that he didn't really have any idea who she was or what her music sounded like, but that he found her to be extremely intelligent. Him being so impressed by her intelligence and eloquence made me lowkey impressed by her as well. And here I am now years later, a little monster in training, watching hours and hours of her videos and interviews on RU-vid 👽
You have to be closed minded to not atleast see Lady gaga's side of the story, I personally love Lady gaga and don't understand how so many ppl can hate her so much. She's clearly not evil. So I don't understand where all the hate in the comments are coming from.
I’m pretty conservative, and that’s one of the things I hate about other conservatives. All the time I see so much stupidity directed towards Gaga and others like her, and I can never understand it. I have seen so much in her, and realized a lot of myself in her. I’ve been able to see her side of the story, and now I’m opened up to so much more. I used to be homophobic, and now I’m accepting because of her. I saw her message and her life and realized who she really was. She’s a superstar.
because they are tremendous idiots, and at the same time cowards who start insulting and tormenting a young woman who has never killed anyone in her life.
+ann landers It's banal comments like yours that make me wish I never scrolled down to the commentary in search for something positive or at the very least, insightful. First off, Madonna's career is older than Gaga's existence - sans exaggeration. Madonna's lengthy list of record breaking accomplishments bury that of her successors, which is simple & researchable fact - not opinion. Madonna came at a time when it wasn't very easy to be respected as a woman doing "unladylike" things, so she was often mentioned alongside brilliant male artists like Michael Jackson & Prince (though, in popular opinion, perhaps not as talented, still however, seen, mentioned & compared alongside such company). A plethora of female artists credit Madonna as the predecessor who "paved the way" for female pop-artists, and the emulation is quite apparent to that of even the most undiscerning eye. Lady Gaga herself mentions Madonna as a major influence. No need to pit these two together. It's just all digital dance music anyway ... same category of synthetic beeps and bad vocals. Don't let fanaticism feed you any illusions about that. We're not talking Mozart ... we're not even talking Led Zeppelin. Personally, I love both of these fire-sign Italian girls, and when I'm feeling like an egotistical & shallow prick, blasting either lady (Madonna or Gaga) will do.
She knows she made a huge mistake, she sold her soul for fame and fortune, she is used to control brainwashed masses like yourself, she can't even sleep because she's tormented by demons, she knows her fate
So here we are today, February 28 2019, she has just won her first Oscar for best song, "Shallow" from "A Star Is Born." This woman is a genius. I kind of tossed her off as a Madonna wanna be years ago, boy was I wrong. Totally in love with her, her energy, her honesty and her freedom to be her very glorious self.
Lady Gaga is so very unusual and unique and so very beautiful she has her very own style she captivates me and fascinates me for all of you haters out there your just jealous of Lady Gaga!
It's nice to see a pop star who is educated and speaks with such poise and tenacity! Its painfully clear that those commenting negatively don't share the same enthusiasm to educate themselves! Maybe then they would understand her brilliance when dealing with empty headed mean spirited comments!
I love Lady Gaga but I bust out laughing when the girl rejected her to come in. Gaga was just like shocked "oh okay..." I would be too! Who the fuck rejects LADY FUCKING GAGA.
Kevin Martinez My apartment could be a disaster and I'd fucking let gaga in like wtf how could you reject any famous person? Weird people who wanna be a nobody and not be on camera like ew
She is so incredible. I don't have words for how much this woman has changed my life. Her music is seriously the reason I am still here today, she pulled me out of some pretty dark places.
When now, you consider all that she's brought to the entertainment world; yes, she's studied the 'art' of fame and, drawn from many famous artists before but, in the end... if you can't understand or see, how fabulously talented she is, not just in her music, but in her total command of all the aspects of her art then, you're blind... Little wonder, her fan base far exceeds most of the top artists today and, from the last decade... This is an old interview/expose' and, we all know she just got better and, better at what she does afterwards... Some friends and, I were talking and, some wondered why she's taken a long time off from performing but, given the intense exposure, countless ongoing world-wide performances, and living under a media microscope; can anyone really blame her for taking a quietus from it all...??? I certainly don't but, like millions of her fans and, critics alike, we can't wait to see her again and, what she'll bring next... She's an amazing woman...

I love her so much! From getting advice from a stripper to performing w/ legends like Elton John and Tony Bennett, she is just an amazing artist; and I've loved her craft since 2008! Truly inspiring and genuine. DANG IT! I want AHS: Hotel to hit Netflix or Hulu already!
This is so fascinating. She took Madonna's approach to fame and made it into a higher art form. Lady Gaga's shock value is not only avant-garde and artful, it keeps people from peering into her social life. Even today no one I know is interested in Lady Gaga's personal life, because they're so accustomed to Lady Gaga as an art instillation. Seeing her as a normal gal with a boyfriend becomes very unbelievable and uninteresting to the tabloids.
I remember a lot of people saying she was trying to rip off of Madonna, but I also remember back in the early 1980s......when folks were saying Madonna was ripping off of Marilyn Monroe. Maybe Monroe was modeling herself after Mae West.

What she says at 6:04 is so true and so important (and an underrated part of her talent). There are little to no other celebrities or artists (even in fashion) who do this kind of research. This became especially evident after the 2019 MET Gala.

@@sallydeb "She's masked and she's open" is such a smart way to describe her. It reminds me of when the singer Sia, several years back, attempted to "conceal" her face with giant Lady Gaga-style wigs and costumes allegedly to conserve her identity? That idea ultimately failed because it just made everyone want to Google search her face, drawing 10x more attention to the thing she claimed to be wanting to derail attention from. Same with Billie Eilish, who said that she wore large clothing to draw the attention away from her body.. Now that she recently ended that "mystery" by posting videos of herself in her bra and underpants, I think it's become clear that both of them attempted to do the thing that Gaga has mastered unlike anyone before. We've seen Gaga's bare face and bare body a million different times in a million different ways; wigs or no wigs, make-up or no make-up, yet not a single person knows what Gaga "truly looks like" or who she is behind the aura. She truly is an "enigma" and gets an A+ in understanding the art of fame whereas the other two would get a C- or D at best.
Gaga was so underrated I mean people used to look at the wigs and the costumes and think that this is some talentless lip syncing but she's more than that
I hate it that people say that if you don't like her you don't know what art is. You don't have to like every actor, singer celebrity that is forced down our throats. I respect her as a person because she is following her dream and I don't know her. But I don't linker music, isn't that what art is it can be subjective.
Watching this interview after "Five Foot Two" is crazy! She's changed so much but her essence is the same. She's obviously more mature now, but she'll always be brilliant! ❤️
talk all you want youtube. shes the real deal. i was skeptical at first too, saw her live twice now, had the pleasure of meeting her mother and her last time around. shes the real deal. find someone whose seen her live who regretted it i dare you.
She's incredible. The only thing I find fishy about her is that she seems to have a weird accent at different times in her life and in different interviews. Don't quite understand that one.
LOL I notice she does that from time to time, I guess she's feeling some sort of inspired when it happens. She says she got a lot of voices in her head, that must be it? I know I sometimes begin speaking in a british accent almost out of nowhere, its never planned. it just sort of happens?
A lot of singers do that actually. Madonna lived in the UK for like 3 days and suddenly had a British accent, and Nicki Minaj at one point had a British alter ego.
Have you heard this woman sing? I mean really sing? She does not lip sing. Her voice is just so extraordinarily beautiful and unique. She's got the pipes. Does she ever. I'm sorry Madonna the young Madonna can't even hit the notes that gaga can! She is a way better singer plus performer ! Who cares how weird you think she dresses or is . If you do not like her change the channel haters. Her voice without even singing is just so beautiful! She speaks so beautifully! I adore her and the funny thing is I never liked her before. I never gave her a chance. Never barely watched her much. That was very dum of me. I was ignorant if you wiLl. I was going by what the haters where saying and judging without knowing, but then when I saw her and see the true her The real her I totally adore this woman. She is so elquontly gracious. She's beautiful! No wonder she has so many women jealous. Even Madonna ! Sorry but Madonna at her best could not keep up with Gaga. I'm loving her new style as well well!!! Whatever she wears or doesn't wear she's Actually perfect A quadrupled threat and it's actually more than 4. It's multitudes. I love her. She's my girl crush. I've moved on from the sexy Angelina Jolie to gaga ! She couldn't be more perfect. Omg I sound like one of those crazy fans That I dislike. I just would never have the guts to go up to her. I'd be to embarrassed which is funny because I do not get embarrassed ever. No matter the circumstances! For God's sakes I'm a Leo. You keep doing you , Gaga. You are the definition of true talent mixed with all,good things. I love you gaga! Jeez that sounded creepy. Sorry just being honest. Obviously when I meant I love Gaga i meant it in what I see as I do not know her personally. I would love to though. Love/peace/ and happiness Mama monster! We love you babes. ❤️❤️❤️😇😎🦁✌️😍😘
The way she predicted her downfall with ARTPOP (still underrated af) and then her rise from the ashes with Cheek to Cheek, the Sound of Music medley, her Super Bowl halftime show, AHS, and most recently A Star Is Born 🤯
Hard not to like her....and she's got great taste in music...I see the Led Zeppelin swan song (Zep's label) poster framed prominently just after the 11:45 mark in the video.
I miss Lady Gaga's old face. She looked so unique and distinctive in this interview. It's too bad that she caved to the pressures of looking a certain way. She's so talented, she didn't need to get any cosmetic procedures done.
After watching this interview and other old Gaga interviews almost 10 years later, I can truly say that she did achieve her goal of making the world a more accepting and kinder place. She pushed the limits on weirdness in pop music and media so much when she started that society's tolerance of weirdness in pop music, media, and therefore the world is now a lot greater. ❤️
This Queen's my favorite. She has an amazing voice, a very pretty face and everything. I just don't understand why people say her style is ugly. That style gives her fame, and makes her unique, she stands out from other artists when it comes to versatility, fashion and understanding of life!
Lady Gaga could sit at her piano wearing clothes from Walmart with no backing band, and she'd STILL be a huge success. Like Bowie, underneath the regalia, she is pure talent.
I cant stand those ignorant behind people who say she's untalented. When i see her perform on her piano it always brings tears to my eyes. Theres this great emotion i always get while seeing her live. There is nothing fake about her at all. And i dont get why people just cant see through her costumes and look at her musical capabilities. Seriously, she is like an angel sent from heaven when she plays on piano and sings. Love Mother Monster
Haters are gonna hate no matter how true she can get. Shes honest and brave enough to tell everyone the truth that i bet most singers would never ever do.
Gaga. There are many of us who do not want to see you fail, who do not want to see the decay of this superstar. I'm more than twice your age, and my musical tastes range from outlaw country to hard rock to blues. I was never a fan of pop music until you came along. I like your music, your intelligence, your honesty, and your humility. There are a lot of us who want you to succeed beyond what you've already accomplished. What we're witnessing is truly something special.
I wrote that post six years ago, and watched and enjoyed her evolution during that time from artist to Artist. She is something special, and she's not done yet.
Wow that’s genius that she made Lady Gaga and those outrageous outifits in order to drive their attention to her image and artistry and not to who she is personally. Just look at Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez and all other pop artists who lost their privacy and pretty much their lovelife have been on the talks by the media.
@@--REGULAR--REGULAR Well, 1. her music was never trash. 2. She has always had a great talent. 3. She had better music back then but its still good. Thank you. :)
i dont care what anyone says she represents everything i stand for and believe in life, she is beautiful, intellectual and talented, her voice is flawless and i love her music, and for those of you out there who criticized her x factor u.k performance should listen to what she has to say, as for the performance, i understood were she was going with it and i love her, also i cant wait for her album to come out this month as i will be first in line to get it.
yea i definitely think there's no denying it...she's extremely talented. she's smart to play the piano live like that because it sets her apart from the other pop stars who don't know how to play instruments, and just have their record label hire producers and songwriters to do all the musical work.
i kinda miss these days when she was like the mystical mysterious enigma and the media were building her up to be this edgy/artistic being that no one really knows anything about.. I feel like these days we know everything about her and she's an open book which is great because it shows how roar she is but at the same time, i wish she'd build up her mystique again
For all those people who say she has no talent, I just want to ask them how she made so much fame with no talent? She's the pure definition of talent. With her voice, with her, clothes, with every fucking this she does she shows her talent. She's a genius and you can't deny it no matter how much you try.
I think people get turned off by gaga because she makes very mainstream music, but gaga is an incredible talent and a genius when it comes to art,marketing, and fame. theres no doubt she will be around for a long time.
She is very talented & when it comes down to it, she's a musician, classically trained both in Piano & vocally, as well as a song writer. After meeting her I can honestly say that she's very genuine, & also very loving,I don't know that I've met a more loving person, she 100% believes what she says & does as she says,she's also very intelligent.She's worked very hard to become where she's at,she has a solid work ethic, &has according to her friend Lady Starlight who I also met "has not changed".
hoodjonjon1 don't worry, her fans did get her out of that financial hole anyway by attending her shows and buying her records - appreciating her hard work.
she's so smart. every move she makes has a purpose, the judas song, the alejandro custume, everything keep people talking, getting her more famous day by day. I love you Gags
