[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

[KG.]

Well that's just confirmed that the video won't be helping the song to reach number one.

[M X]

It is ****ing amazing, don't care what any one says...BOW!

[Niall]

That was.....awesome. :amazed:

You can see a lot of influences by the Vogue video there as well.

I loved it either way though. :lovedup:

[Stu]

Hello Marilyn Manson. I'm Nadine Coyle and I'd like you to direct my video for Insatiable.

So smithy, do you want me to still hold you to your statement about her getting number one when the video is released?

I wish she'd stop making her vids into short films, the video should only really cover the length of the song I reckon, I dont think she needs all that **** at the beginning

It's really boring. The start's pretentious and the rest is uninspired and the song is still awful. BTW will continue to plummet down the charts.

absolute ****! she should give up trying with the mother monster freako crap and return to the fame party girl era! :(

[Barbie]

That was predictable, i just knew it was going to be similar to Alejandro in that it was going to be a dark, weird video. *wishes she would go back to Telephone and Pokerface*

aside from that, does she really think she is the mother of tolerance to how people are, just because she mentioned the dont ask dont tell thing in public and now this song about accepting people. The majority of people are accepting of everything now, so she cant seriously believe that

[cub]

The intro is AWWWWFUL!

The rest is just meh ...

When did she say she was the mother of tolerance too? :conf2:

[cub]

She's officially peaked now ...

[Ninastar]

The only thing Imma give her credit for is that she has the hottest body ever -is jealous-

[Jords]

It was like watching PG rated porn.

Awful, Lady Gaga has plummeted, and only the obesessive fans (MichaelSpears), will support anything and everything she does.

Worst single, worst music video.

[Josy]

Meh.

[InOne]

Oh GaGa :bored:

[Shaun]

madonna meets manson meets janelle monae meets little boots' remedy.

shockingly self-indulgent crap.

[Shaun]

and I am so ****ing tired of hearing about this being a gay liberational anthem - all it promotes is being a vulgar, promiscuous slut.

[CaraRawr]

Telephone and Paparazzi >

she's just a weird, pretentious mess now.

[Callum]

I actually like it, the beginning is strange and OTT but her dancing is really good and she looks great too. I like how stripped back it is compared to most of her other videos.

[Zippy]

wow what a hilarious, self aggrandizing and utterly pretentious intro.

but leaving the cheap halloween make-overs aside, the worst part of the video is actually the choreography; it's weak, sloppy and totally forgettable.

and the song still sucks even with a mega million promo video. It's basically a lame attempt at shock imagery with a heavy handed, clumsy-ass message rammed down our throats. Subtle she is not.

Like I said before, you can't polish a turd.

ps; gap tooth? how very Madonna!

[Captain.Remy]

She seriously needs to stop drugs. Having a mental breakdown or what?

Isn't a gay anthem supposed to be happy, colourful and super ultra gay/camp? If I was gay, I'd probably hang myself after watching this. Come on, it can't help the gays right?

edit: and the Madonna thing at the end isn't helping the accusations of Gaga being influenced by Express Yourself. Alejandro + this: major stealing from Madonna.

[Zippy]

...major stealing from Madonna.

The woman across the road has a black two piece, she must have got the idea from Madonna

I wish she had brought it out when she released the song. But yea I think it's amazing :love:

The downfall of GaGa, at least on TiBB, must be the only half decent, hillarious thing to happen to this place for ages.

Your right, it just doesn't go

[Zippy]

"GaGa is Stefani Germanotta. I don't create any separation between my birth name and my subsequent birth name–Lady Gaga. That's the point of what I'm trying to say. Gaga is not manufactured . . . it is not artificial. I wish I could give that gift to everyone on the planet–the ability for you to create an idea and perceive of something, whether it be a name or a vision for yourself, and just choose to become it. The world, and I base this on the music industry, is obsessed with artists and glamour and creativity and fashion. And artistry has become something that people believe is artificial. For myself, it is my reality. I exist at all times halfway between reality and fantasy. That's the way I was born."

- Lady GaGa tells Billboard


oh **** bitch. Funny, I couldve sworn she seemed all ordinary and "normal" in her past pictures from just a few years back. Now she's claiming that going to the shops with a telephone on her head whilst holding a teacup and saucer is just how she was born. Her true self. Bollocks. It's all contrived imagery for attention.

[Smithy]

As brilliant as that is Zippy, it's completely irrelevant to the Music Video discussion thread, if you want to talk about her "contrived image" **** off and make a thread about it :)

[Stacey.]

It's like a boring video to go with the song, but she looks hot in it

[Zippy]

As brilliant as that is Zippy, it's completely irrelevant to the Music Video discussion thread, if you want to talk about her "contrived image" **** off and make a thread about it :)

no we don't need another Gaga thread just yet thanks. Although Ill be the first to start one when she next fails.

and it all ties in quite nicely seeing that her videos are all about her weird imagery.

[Stu]

I'll start the next thread about her dropping down the charts. We are going to have to work out some rotation system and each take turns at doing it.

[Zippy]

Funny how she goes on about people being accepted for who they are and what they look like. But does she ever use realistic examples? Do you see fat ugly people in her videos? No. Because they don't look cool enough.

Instead she goes looking on the internet for Rick Genest who has deliberately transformed himself into a tattooed freak. Hardly a good example of somebody born this way!

Full of BS. Her ideology is heavily slanted towards what is cool. Not what is right. If the imagery doesnt fit then she aint interested. Freaks are kinda cool, fat people are not.

[Tom4784]

I disagree, if you dislike criticism of Gaga then tough, it's his right and prerogative to criticise her if he so wants. Especially when it's about an artist whose image is vital to her success and forms a central part of her videos. It's on topic for him to comment on her image.

[Beastie]

Gaga looks hot in this video. Hot body.

Hopefully this video will boost her chances of getting to number 1 in the UK.

I think you are right about this. Anyway I am not some obsessed Gaga fan. I just think "Born this way" is a decent pop song. Well a song that will do well in the clubs! lol

[Barbie]

She killed a dinner full of people in Telephone

When did she say she was the mother of tolerance too? :conf2:

Yes, she did, granted but surely you agree that telephone was a more light hearted video, far more colourful and had a snippet of comedy in it. Compared to this video set in the dark and with her giving birth to god knows what.

I can't remember exactly what she said, it was in the into something about mother of new race, a race of tolerance and that doesnt care about anything.

Totally.

It is SO ****ed up that she is trying to promote equal rights for the gay community.

How dare she.

[M X]

That's not what he is saying and you know it. Are you being this stupid on purpose or were you just born that way?

But it's true - that is what she is doing and she gets bashed for it. Why? Because this time around she isn't promoting fat rights.

People will always pick out negative things, even if the things she is doing are obviously good and for equal rights.

[InOne]

By the way she goes on you'd think gays were getting stoned in the streets or something :joker:

[M X]

Gay people still do not have the same rights that straight people have, that's the point.

And in some countries, gays will get stoned in the streets.

[Scarlett.]

She could try promoting gay rights without spreading her legs though, just a thought

[InOne]

Is she REALLY aiming at those people? I mean come on. Maybe she should go over there if she cares so much :bored: You know very well she sells to closet middle class teens and that is all she is interested in

[Stu]

I guess we better all stop critizing her. We don't want to look like homophobes, do we. Theres nothing wrong with sticking up for gay rights. You know ... by using all the batshit insane looking, overdressed, 'freak' gays for your music videos as if they were some chic stage prop.

[M X]

I'm not saying you are homophobic if you dislike her, you've just made that up, like you make these things about her up.

The point of the video is that this race of humanity bares no prejudice, no judgement, nothing but love, and that's what we as the human race should be. I really don't understand why it is so wrong for her to do that? People are such dicks.

Yeah I really got that from watching the video as well. That's the clear message of those visuals.

Christ you will eat up anything won't you. You are completely devoid of independent thought. It's laughable. And yes you are stopping people from having an opinion on this. You're still doing it even now. Saying this video is such an ode to equality that nobody can dare criticize it because who on earth would have a problem with equality.

It's like saying the film Milk with Sean Penn shouldn't have been permitted to be reviewed by critics because after all it's about gay rights. What sort of evil bastard could find a problem with that?

It's actually quite clear from those visuals, considering she says it as the beginning.

It's not like saying that at all! Where have you gotten that from? Fair enough, you don't like the video, but it's when people criticize her for standing up for gay rights, I don't get it. But as soon as I point that out you twist it into something completely different so that it looks like you didn't do it.

[Shaun]

If anything this has just had the wrong impact - the use of 'chola' and 'orient' is questionable by someone who's a very well-off white girl from a comfortable background.

[Z]

IDK if it's like a regional thing or what, but I'd genuinely no idea that the term Orient had racist connotations, it's not a taboo word to me but I've had this conversation with you (Shaun) before, strange... Anyway I think the video is very self indulgent and really doesn't work with the song, they're both about the same sort of message but almost as if from two different views; the song itself is this campy disco number and the video's this assorted menagerie of weird and they both sing praises for being equal and blah blah blah... I still only like Telephone by her, I've never understood the massive hype.

[Smithy]

I don't care if you disagree, the thread is to discuss the music video, not take irrelevant quotes from random interviews and dissect them, if he wants to do that, he can go make another thread.

[Tom4784]

She's about as geniune as the unicorn she rides in the video. It's all marketing and her fans eat it up because they think she's some messiah figure that's introduced the world to homosexuals and the struggle they face. She's pandering to her market, nothing more and it's foolish to believe all the stunts are anything more then that.

[Tom4784]

I don't care if you disagree, the thread is to discuss the music video, not take irrelevant quotes from random interviews and dissect them, if he wants to do that, he can go make another thread.

You misunderstand, I was saying that as a mod. You can't trample all over his opinion because you don't like it. and the fact he was talking about image was relevant to the topic. He can say what he likes as long as it's not against the rules and is on topic and you're in no position to dictate otherwise.

I wasn't trampling over his opinion :conf2: This thread is full of mixed opinions and I'm not bothered because everyone's entitled to one. My point was he took a quote from an interview where she's not even talking about the video, nor is she really talking about her image, it's just he decided to make it about her image and dissect it.

[Zippy]

Totally.

It is SO ****ed up that she is trying to promote equal rights for the gay community.

How dare she.

she acts like she's the new Queen of gay equal rights! Sorry but MANY other artists have been championing equal rights long before she jumped on the trendy bandwagon and hijacked the valuable pink pound market.

step back, bitch

Madonna was speaking out for gays and supporting AIDs victims way way back when it was taboo for famous celebs to do so. She was one of the first major stars to speak out. Because she actually came from a community that was dealing with those issues and even had a gay brother.

Its other celebrities that have done all the hard work. Its like they ran the whole marathon and she's just joining in for the last couple of miles to get all the cheers and glory part. Now that is all cool and trendy to love the gays.

the way she makes such a big song and dance out of it is just crass. Says to me that she's just doing it for her own ego and self aggrandizing reasons. I find her increasingly very calculating and contrived.

and she's also a commercial ***** just like Beyonce. She was obviously born to be that way......a greedy bitch!

Madonna received the same criticism for "using" the gay community to get their money, and she did. Where is she now? No where to be seen. Oh, but she's funding Malawi where they kill gays and homosexuality is illegal. Madonna and Gaga are one of the same.

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

she looks ****ing horrid with the whole gap tooth thing at the end

im so glad she doesnt look like that all the time (like madonna)

[Zippy]

Where is she now? No where to be seen.

er, she's just finished making a film and set to release a new album later in the year.

thats where

and Madonna never made great claims about being a spokeswoman for gays or being their saviour. She was just being true to the community she emerged from and the people around her.

Im currently listening to an album of hers from 1982. Thats over 28 years ago. Gaga still has 25 years to catch up. Lets see how relevant she is in 2036. She'll probably look like Pete Burns with a toaster strapped to her head.

[Callum]

Is she trying to impersonate MJ with the walk and the glove at the end?

[Smithy]

intro music is a complete rip off of Madonna's The Beast Within

Looks like Madonna ripped off Hitchcock then

I dont like it at all(the video). And dont really get how dancing in your underwear and opening your legs a lot, along with half the other dodgy stuff in the video... has anything to do with gay rights :/

And why disliking it means you are against equal rights.

This stan-ning is so fecking annoying.

Gaga likes to pretend that she has great depth and substance. In truth, she's just all about imagery. Pretentious pop is all she is.

nobody is gonna look at that video and relate to it. Unless you're a creepy tattooed freak.
