♫ ♪ BAD Romance ♪ ♫

So here's the thing, and I readily admit it; I am NOT a fan of Lady BlahBlah and I also admit I take pleasure in watching this.... NOT because this woman is in dire need of help from someone that cares more about HER than her their paycheck... but because this is a perfect visualization of what I equate to her "talent" in the first place.



I do not like listening to her at all. I think she is indeed All Flash, NO Substance. Quantity, not Quality. Smoke and Mirrors. Subterfuge. She is tone deaf and Nasal.

I am truly stunned at those of my friends that think she's all that. I just do NOT see it or hear it. It's as if there is some hypnotic notes in her music that due to some biological reason I am immune to. I'm not complaining mind you.



I saw the video on FB through two different friends… one was all ""LOL the other was… "Poor dear… she’s working herself too hard"…

Fuck that shit! Why is she working herself so hard?!?

Look, if she is as talented as they say (not that I agree with ANY of “them”) then she could be more substance than glitz. Instead it's shock value and out-doing her last outsit and staged media sighting...

She’s created this freak-persona and what’s truly amusing is that not only is she NOT in competition with anyone (to the degree of batshit that she is day and night, on and off stage) but what is so incredibly astounding is that she’s in fact, in competition with HERSELF! She keeps trying to top herself… well hun, it just ain't possible…

And if this is where she is after what? A year and a bit she will soon self destruct...


A friend recently commented that "Lady Gaga has a vague resemblance to Amy Winehouse... Amy disappeared just as Lady Gaga took over the world... Coincidence???"

...well "take over the world" ??? Alas this is one of "Those friends" He's also a mid-30 something gay man that is more insanely enraptured by Twilight than is healthy for even a female Tween... so we'll just chalk up that "taking over the world" review to pre-pubesenct hyperbole.

Now to the comparison with Amy Winehouse. Yes, to a certain degree I can see it... Both came from relative obscurity, both seem to relish the freak factor and are somewhat media whores, HOWEVER hopped up on heroin and stone cold drunk and Amy can STILL sing the shit outta BlahBlah.

But enough of my ranting... It seems that the comments on You Tube are somewhat divided. In the video, what do you think the issue is? Dehydration and or Exhaustion? Drugs and or Alcohol? Or a little bit of both?

To tell you the truth I don't know but I can say this, as much as I dislike her music I feel truly sorry that someone did not pick her up and take her off stage. She obviously was in no state to continue the concert (even if that was the last song, or an encore.)

In the end there was nothing romantic about this, it was just bad. rah ah ah

I also am NOT a fan of Gaga, but I think her music is incredible. Sorry, I do! Bad Romance and Telephone are just, wow, listen to the hooks...she can write a hook. Darkchild did an amazing job arranging Telephone and it replaced Bad Romance as my favorite song. Forget that she's a douche and the fact if there were no synthesizers in the world she would not have a career. Find a dim room, a glass of wine, and put on your best head phones and give the songs another chance. Oh and picture ANYBODY but her ugly ass. ;) peace

Oh leonard.... I just canot do that. I cant. I wont. At work I listen to the radio and any time her songs come on I turn it off. I cannot stomach it. Really I just so completely do not get it. I feel like an alien that's landed on some strange distant planet and so tries to understand the locals and just can't.

I look forward to the day when her star dulls but not at a cost like this. It's a shame that there is no one there for her.

I find HER annoying as hell. But I'm always interested to see what she wears/does next. She's keepin' it interesting, I find. Entertainment value. I do think she has the musical chops though:
