Can you fucking believe Lady Gaga is mainstream? Does that mean we won? As Kanye said, “We would never have a pop star like this 10 years ago.”

What happened? The majority of the population is over 60 but we’re still getting top 40 with the most esoteric fashion imaginable. This video looks like some weird Parisian thing you’d get as a DVD single in your $300 V Magazine. Nope. It’s on fucking YouTube (a million views and it went up yesterday). If you don’t think this video rules I feel bad for you.
As White Lightning put it…
“If you love fashion, and don’t love GAGALOO TOO..then you don’t get the joke, you don’t get the fun, you don’t get the THING. You don’t have to love the music (bad move) but you have to LOVE THE LOVE.”
PS: Thank God the music business is so lost and desperate, they’re throwing all their money into the only thing they have left: Videos.
More at White Lightning.
Lady gaga was on the J Ross show over in the uk a couple of months ago, she came across sounding like a fucking retarded child, that said this video is okay, as ever i am underfuckingimpressed, but hey thats just me.
Meh and meh somemore.
Ps. Is she a chick, does she have a cock, am i out of the “loop”?
The hermaphrodite thing was a gag.
Haha, a gag. I got that. No but seriously, it was just a stunt.
did gaga have a nose j?
idk but i want a hand j
Uh – its OK… Not quite sure why you’re frothing such a big cappuccino in your pants tho…
But then I’m not a fag-hag trapped inside a transsexuals body, so I’m not really the right demographic for this.
And no we’ve not won – the winners were the people that were around when this was mainstream: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=54XRNQ2C2x0
You’re going to flip your shit when you find out what the Parliament-Funkadelic was.
Video costs are recoupable – they’re spending so much because it’s coming out of her pocket.
lady gaga wasn’t cool to me until she did her crazy-ass blood thing. now i salivate over her videos. this shit is great. i want moar
Heavens to Murgatroyd.. sounds like some bloody beetroots shit even.
this just apes marilyn manson styling circa 1998 http://vimeo.com/1791228
fuck this.
This video looks like it cost about $1000 in art supplies, and $50 to rent the YMCA gym.
That said, if Lady Gaga is a dude, I am the biggest fag imaginable
i ‘ve never heard of this gaga but its pretty RADD
shit sandwich
Too bad you were born so late. You woulda LOVED the Divinyls!
can’t lipread my poker faaaace…
This video is major. Fact.
the song is okay. BUT lady gaga in general just reeks of trying way too hard to be “out there.” all her videos and interviews remind me of the goth/”subculture” kids in high school all just yelling and trying so hard to make sure you LOOK AT MEE LOOK HOW CRAZY I AMMM I AM SO ~*~*~wEiRd~*~*. that all being said, she looks like my grandma.
Tight little body. BUT TER FACE.
Plus I can’t figure out if she’s ugly or pretty, young or old… Sometimes she looks like my aunt Sophia.
Yeah this is a “weird” video. But it’s just wierd in the same was Marilyn Manson is weird. Nobody won anything.
Also: AWFUL song.
Like Black Thunder says, “If you love fashion, you ARE the joke.”
She should have spent more on the effects rather than just tossing in a hacky shot of her standing in front of “flames”. Britney Spears choreographed dance video with more expensive clothes. I guess you are probably trolling with this. Nevertheless, I’m glad that you have won, or whatever.
SO into it
if you like lady gaga you might as well like christina and britney and all that shit same stuff,just wrapped in a different over produced/ over styled package, what are you winning? trying too hard to be weird, FAIL, and there is nothing to get, I really liked it better when Bjork did it..in the 90′s
this is the final nail in the coffin of western civilization
Get this look: Mix, in equal parts, knockoffs from the aesthetics of Matthew Barney and Marilyn Manson, then drown it in the shitty club music particular to the bridge-and-tunnel crowd. “Ho-lee shit, Rocco, dat Gah-Gah bidge is a fuhggin’ AWdist.”
“We” didn’t “win” anything.
Kanye West’s knowledge of music is about as deep as a baby’s asshole.
plus she is lookin’ increds, diverse. wow.
I was trying to think who this gaga bitch reminds me of and I figured it out. She’s the new fucking cher. and she sucks just like cher. hey remember when cher made us all want to gouge our eyeballs out when she wore that outfit with all her nasty tats hanging out? that’s what gaga looks like too. I christen her “lady caca”.
Who the fuck are “we”. What did they win. This video has been done.
and before you go shitting all over yourself saying ‘we won, we won!!!’ remember who else won too, rock, punk and hip-hop. yeah they won too, look at them now. hahahaha, you just lost motherfuckers.
the song is boring, and sounds like an average techno song from 13 years ago?
the only thing that is shocking about this girl is that she gets massive influence from the gay mafia who make her fierce, no?
i have no opinion on this. but check out what this tard has to say about gaga.
http://vigilantcitizen.com
very well said!
Wake me when her sextape is posted on Freeones.
with the sound off and different music playing, this video is almost tolerable.
that vigilantcitizen article is pretty good. I immediately though of matthew barney’s cremaster movies when I saw the video. interesting stuff.
ya, this kinda blew. the only reason it didn’t totally blow is because videos have been absolute shit for the last 20 years. ‘member really crazy shit like the bowie china girl video ? this just looks like an office conference room and a bunch of left over 5th element costumes.
lady gaga, rihanna, jay-z. all part of an illuminati plot to install a satanic new world order. who knew?
also, I really thinks gaga resembles this:http://images2.fanpop.com/images/quiz/170000/170032_1237795651870_500_207.jpg
whoops

meh. pretty cool video because of the obvious matthew barney bites but a truly awful song. its true that it says something about 2009 culture that a video this weird is mainstream but unfortunately all it says to me is that millions of people are open to a more “out-there” aesthetic. Cool i guess but I dont get how anybody would consider this any kind of victory.
don’t believe the hype. lady gaga’s nice ass does not make up for his music sucking ass. and the video.. why do y’all like it so much? is it because he looks so fabulous in those outfits? jeesh, is new york canada a total fag?
idiotic. this song fucking sucks. and every single word donna the dumb wrote is complete bullshit. lady gaga is fuckin’ terrible. i am not buying into this lady gaga bullshit, sucking, lame, cuntface, retard-retard, bullshit. fuck this shit. it’s soooo fucking stupid. “nobody wins with lady gaga” should be her stupid slogan.
the following people are idiots and i hate them:
donna
imyar
barb
where’s my phone?
Ten years ago Janet Jackson was doing shit like this. Remember that video she did with MJ & the other one she did with Bustah Rhymes? Plus, like the other people have said, Marilyn Manson, musically this shit sounds like an off track from a 90s Cher record.
I would love to make her cry.
ugh, thank you. agreed 100x. i enjoy watching her exist.
Even if she does have a penis, I’m just okay with that!
fuck you donna, you haven’t done anything good since I Call Bullshit and I feel bad for you if you think this overblown cokey posey fashion slavish bullshit is some kind of punk triumph. Just Dance was catchy except for that awful gino rap bit in the middle, and all the other songs are gay pussycat doll ringtones. Lady Gaga was interviewed by the BBC and hearing her pancake makeup midget porn new joisey accent trilling about how “smart” her “russian roulette without a gun lyric” was made me want to slice and dice this whole time into ribbons.. it makes me wish that book The Road would come true. being all goo goo over mildly diverting pretentious videos seems to be your sole purpose on this site, weren’t you the cooze who was telling us how AMAYZING that santagold video was awhile back? please fuck off
“ooh we won, pussycat dolls is going out with a negro racing champion.. good bye future stasi robots, this is dawning of the age of the popular ginabeats” – Donna “Deliva”
sorry I went back and read your bullshit again cause I’m a massakist orange.
as kanye said. AS KANYE SAID
this the same fucking gaylord mamafucker who hadn’t heard of daft punk til his DJ played them for him in 2006? what the fuck does that zoolander brown shower lover know about pop. making a few pop rap crossovers by speeding up oldies like Jive Bunny and the Master Chipmunks because you’re oh so desperate for a hit, collaborating with Maroon 5, what the fuck does he know about pop music. PS fuck you
ewwwwwwwwww.
p.s. n/a is right. So right.
The music fucking sucks mad dicks. The video does too. She looks hot sometimes, but other times her face is fucked. The only thing that seems cool about her is her fuck voice.
are you kidding me…i can’t take her as a joke or serious or anything. this shit is for you out there that also think that kayne west is a musician. fuck this type of crap, eat shit it’s not fun, and you say a joke? yeah that’s for sure and the joke is on you buying into this corporate made star…fucking sheep fashion followers go follow each other into a big ass pothole and get asphalted over by some fat fuck city worker eating a sandwich.
this chick is baloney… excellent marketing / street teaming though.
this shits a nightmare…kanye blows too
It’s not shocking that girls who are a size zero can dress like slim jims, put bear traps on their heads, white out their features and still look amazing. Just TRY to make her look repulsive. She’s not even slightly ridiculous, just totally awesome.
I don’t give a crap, LOVE LADDY GAGA. she sings the only songs that make you want more. love her style so much sometimes yeah her cloths scary but can’t nobody rock it like she can. love the chick man.
This is what mainstream is now.
Is it really that “out there”? It reminds me of Bjorks All is Full of Love video (not as good) and that was how long ago? I just don’t get all this hype. She claims to perform Pop Art which is taken straight from Pop Culture, which is…. you get it….
Not complaining though, I like it. Just don’t see how it’s so innovative.
lady gaga annoys the shit out of me and should annoy the shit out of all of you too because i’m always right
men in tight underwear
@DEMOB happy: ha! gay pussycat doll ringtones.
@danian: …cloths are scary… – good band name, because, at times, cloths are scary.
“chick man” nailed it. she is the wet dream come true of a group of stylist fashion fags, that cant do the fabulous things they love in their jobs. the shit she says in interviews makes me think she was raised by former leigh bowery entourage members. and music not good.
I guess I’m suddenly pro-life, because it’s clear to me this sucked from the moment of conception.
All that white crown dancing made me flash back to Kylie.
The video is totally derivative of things that were slightly interesting ten years ago. The music is totally conventional and uninteresting. If convincing 14-year-olds to watch a watered-down version of The Cremaster Cycle constitutes “winning,” you won. Congratulations.
Gaga has to be ‘weird’ to distract from how truly awful her music is and how homely she is. This is her flare.
When I look at Gaga (whether she’s dressed like a human tampon or wearing a bear skin rug robe), I immediately think ‘Jersey Shore.’
um, “we would never have a pop star like this 10 years ago”? how is she different than madonna or cyndi lauper? and by “we won”, who is the “we” you’re referring to? surely you don’t mean musically talented people by “we”. i mean lady gaga is, but i sincerely doubt that you are. if you mean fashionable, don’t forget that as i mentioned before, madonna and cyndi lauper were very fashionable for their time. so were the fucking red hot chili peppers. i know that that’s probably too far deep into the annals of history for you to consider, so i apologize. were you thinking with your brain when you wrote this? i hate being harsh to posters on here, but i also hate going to a website that i enjoy for the witty cultural commentary only to read something obscenely stupid. i mean, this is TMZ stupid.
holy shit is this thread amazing. this was just pure hateration and I love it. if the writers/contributers for SBTC would use the same energy that the commenters used towards hating shit the the site would be 80% more amazing.
jesus christ you commenters are bastard coated bastards with bastard filling.
^ pretty much this. I dont see how you have the gall to say fashionistas are some sort of underdog when if anything theyve been the overdog for almost 30 years.
I can hear the record company hack a few years ago: “We need somebody like that Karen O, or that chick from Brazilian Girls, but for the 13 year olds on long island, not all esoteric and downtown. Find me one of those and we’re all rich again!”
Wow, no one gets the “we”, huh? Do any hipsters even read Gavin’s blog?
Finally American music scene has caught up with the Balkans.
VERY EXCELLENT POST. I RESPECT YOUR SKILL.
yeah she is really badass at wearing other peoples art
This is, quite simply, music for teh gays, girls in junior high, and women around 30 who desire to remember how horny and weird they felt about Doctor & The Medics, Roxette, and all that other sexually ambiguous shit from their poster hanging days.
When I wanna watch a halfwit wearing too much makeup from out east fop around to generic music I look up Platinum Blonde on youtube.
Fierce!
Personally I think lady gaga uses way to much make up. She would be great even without any make up. But everybody has his own style.
