Is she asking for these 'Madonna copycat' comments?

[Shaun]

:crazy: because it certainly seems like it:

Lady Gaga will release a photo book featuring new and exclusive "intimate" pictures later this year.

The 'Judas' singer will pen the foreword for the new tome, which is called Lady Gaga and will be released on November 22 through Grand Central Books. The publishing company claim that the book will provide "the intimate, random, behind-the-scenes moments" of her life and career, including exclusive photos taken while she was making her latest album 'Born This Way'.

It will also feature more than 350 pictures from the renowned fashion photographer Terry Richardson. Last September, the star revealed that she wanted to release a book with Richardson, after he joined her for her 'Monster Ball' tour when she told Vogue magazine:

He's on the bus with me. He just follows me everywhere. He'll photograph me when I'm changing - those quick changes during the show. And sometimes I'll have to pee during the show, and I'm always screaming, 'Terry, get out!'

Grand Central Books’ Jamie Rabb said: "Lady Gaga will be one of the most stunning, provocative and coveted books of the 2011 holiday season."

Earlier this month, Gaga confessed to having had a cocaine habit in the past when she told US shock jock Howard Stern: "I think that I was lonely and there was something about the drug that made me feel like I had a friend.”

:sleep::sleep::sleep: to the both of them. Madonna should take early retirement.

[Niall]

Oh no. God. Noooo why'd she have to do this. Why. I swear if its anything like Sex I will slap her if I ever meet her in person. I don't even think she could get good publicity despite how edgy she is.

I don't want a Gaga flange book. :sad:

[Smithy]

by intimate it doesn't mean n00dz it meant private in the recording studio or behind the scenes at the MB

[Niall]

I better leave this thread before Harry arrives

[Doogle]

Boring. :bored:

[Shaun]

(to be fair to her, this is from the NME who will have, of course, worded it in the most attention-seeking way possible)

[Harry!]

No dubut the ''provocative'' images will be deemed ''original'' by the mass, as always :rolleyes:. We will just have to wait and see what the images are like first...

:sleep::sleep::sleep: to the both of them. Madonna should take early retirement.

Um no far from it. Behold, she is coming soon...

[CharlieO]

I wonder how many blasphemous pictures will be in this book, none to cause controversy of course.

[Harry!]

M's SEX book/Erotica era almost destroyed her carear too...

Soon?? It feels like she never goes away. Her peak passed with the 90's.

Yes she is working on a new album now and her film is out December :idc:. She has been almost absent the last year or so. And I disagree.

As opposed to you saying that about Madonna? Tit and minge had been in print long before Madonna dropped her knickers.

[Joelle.]

Oh please, Madonna's career ended the moment she released Hard Candy :bored:

[Marsh.]

I'm guessing this is a film she's directed? As long as she doesn't act in it, I've just managed to forget the majority of "Evita".

[CharlieO]

Because its Lady Gaga.

But no singer had ever attepted to release a book like that before.

Yes she has directed it (and writtern and had most control over) and will not star Madonna. Evita is one of her best films. She even won a Golden Globe for her role in it.

Oh please, Madonna's career ended the moment she released Hard Candy :bored:

Far from it...

[Marsh.]

Yes, but I'd hardly call the book a "success" on Madonna's part.

Blatantly trying to cash in on Our Great Sport.

Well the book sold many copies. And was used to premote the album. But of course dented a part of her in the press. Luckily she recovered that when she released her far cooler Bedtime Stories album and even more with Evita and her phenonamal Ray Of Light.

Stu :nono:

[Niall]

Why do people find it hard to like Madonna and Gaga. Christ. -__-

I'll give her credit where it's due "Ray of Light" was great but she needs to stop the phase she's going through now. No one wants to see a 50 odd year old gyrating with a member of N Sync.

Well she isn't in her next album, she is working with up and coming producers on her next album. Not mainstream successes.

To be honest Music and Confessions on a Dance Floor are also both fantastic albums by her.

This, though I hate her other stuff :laugh:

And Niall/Harry don't make me listen to her older albums I've heard most of it and I don't like it.

[Zippy]

Harry don't get sucked in to defending Madonna. After nearly 30 years she doesnt need defending. And anybody who doesnt respect her by now never will so just leave them to it.

And this thread is about Gaga.

[Joelle.]

Her older stuff (prior to Hard Candy) is brilliant, but her new stuff is just garbage. 4 Minutes is proof of this.

From what I've listened to her, I love her more modern albums. Ray of Light, Music, American Life, Confessions on a Dance Floor are all some of my favourite albums ever now. :lovedup: I actually love Hard Candy too though not as much as the other four. :blush2:

And I won't. I'm here if you change your mind though. :bigsmile:

[Zippy]

no the topic is not "what do you think of Madonna"

Please go re-read the OP.

[Harry!]

Hard Candy is very underated. If you drelve into her backlog she has great demos from the Hard Candy/Celbration era as well.

It's about Gaga and Madonna. God forbid somebody post an opinion on one of them.

What DO you want me to write? The thread is about MADONNA and GAGA. Writing an opinion about one of the artists in the thread title is hardly off topic.

[Shaun]

i think you'll find this is my thread and it's now about sausages.

Shaun, you're such a **** stirrer :idc:

whatever, Mary

hopefully at some point you'll actually bother to address teh Ops question. Thats usually how thread topics work.

Like this;

my opinion is that it depends on what kind of book it turns out to be. Intimate and personal pictures is not really what sex was about. It was deliberately provocative and designed to press all kinds of buttons. That was very much her mo back then and nobody will ever do it to better effect.

[Joelle.]

Well if thats the case, I like sausages...

[Shaun]

smithy i don't even like anal

[Smithy]

thats not what i heard :idc:

Yeah, good one :rolleyes:

Maybe I'll respond when you stop with the personal insults. Throwing a strop because the forum isn't acting in the way you'd like.
