Report: Lady GaGa To Open & Close Grammy Awards 2012

Published: Thursday 19th Jan 2012 by Sam

Love her or loathe her, Lady GaGa stands of one of Pop’s biggest forces. A statement the Grammy committee clearly agree with; for they have tapped the star to ensure next month’s show kicks off and climaxes with a bang.

Full story after the jump…

According to the BBC, the LL Cool J hosted show will see the ‘Judas’ singer open and close festivities.

The unprecedented move is being hailed by many as a massive boost for music’s biggest night, which will also see performances from the likes of Nicki Minaj, Paul McCartney, Rihanna, Coldplay, and Bruno Mars.

Airing live from Los Angeles’ Staples Center, the Grammy Awards 2012 takes place on February 12th.

——————————————

While GaGa’s material has left That Grape Juice “thirsty” this ‘era’, her ability to “entertain” is non-debatable. As such, we’re excited to see what she’ll deliver. None of the presently announced performers are compelling enough to render the show a “must-watch” (where’s Beyonce when you need her?). Hence having the Paw purveyor serve as a book-end is good look. Three gold stars to the  producer.

Your thoughts?

    Good for Gaga! Don’t let bitter tramps stop your grind! 8)

  2. aba January 19, 2012

    If Beyoncé does not make an appearance, it’ll be the lamest Grammy Awards ever, ewwwwwwwwww.

  3. JohnVidal January 19, 2012

    They know she has talent 🙂 That´s why I say she has achieved recognition from the start of her career while others needed 15 years…
    And I don´t see why Beyonce is needed again when she has no nominations? Be real. Also, it seems Adele is definitely not going to appear so Gaga is the most exciting one for sure. Loved her two performances in the grammy nominees concert

  4. KELIS January 19, 2012

    DESPERATE FLOP…. HER 15 MINS BEEN UP.

  5. KD January 19, 2012

    Like her ego isn’t over inflated enough…did the Grammy committee have to indulge this attention w****?

    S/N: B4 being attacked let me just state that I like GaGa…I would love her if she wasn’t such a try hard.

  6. kimberly January 19, 2012

    That is an honor. I remember when the queen did that back in 2004 at the age of 24 yrs old and both performances were mindblowing and epic. one solo and the other with the legendary prince.
    gaga do your thing girl i am on your side.

  7. kimberly January 19, 2012

    @ JOHNVIDAL i KNOW YOU NOT COMIGN FOR THE QUEEN
    cause one she did that same thing at 24 yrs old. she broke the grammy record at 24 yrs. she sung the NA, one of the greatest rendition at 23 yrs. she has had more highlights that gaga. so you better go back and check you history. gaga is 25 on her 4th album. the queen did that on her 1st album. ummmmmmmmm. lets talk about deja vous. all of taht is done already

  8. QUEEN BEE January 19, 2012

    why she gotta w**** her self out all over tv, all the damn time, and her singles still flop lol when was her last real #1 single?

  9. MaZ January 19, 2012

    Overrated B****!

    Adele deserves more to open and close the Granny’s!

  10. PAU January 19, 2012

    her last grammy performance was a mess, and every born this way song is a s***.
    gaga come back to the feme days

  11. Kingphoenix January 19, 2012

    She has a lot to prove at the Grammies this year, with all the drama of Born this Way sales, Lauriann Gibson, Madonna, and a string of gimmicky lack luster performances this is Gaga’s chance to show everybody why she is supposedly the New Queen of Pop…Imma cross my fingers for you girl.

  12. kimberly January 19, 2012

    @kingphoenix pls gaga is no queen of pop. what are her contributions in the pop world. awards don’t mean s***. what are her contributions. what has she done to gain that title. i like gaga but don’t go there. 4 yrs in music doesn’t mean that you will be there forever. britney thought she still had american t*** girl wrapped around her finger right? well she wasn’t s*** in 2011. rollingstone magazine gives that title to an artist every year. jtimberlake was king of pop. i bet that says it all.

  13. MISHKA January 19, 2012

    So she opens and she closes the show. She can sing but her performances are not that stellar.

    That means she’s not winning Album of The Year either. This is like her consolation prize.

    So far, the show sounds boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooring….

    No Kanye = No ratings, dear Grammys.

  14. pat January 19, 2012

    bring a legend bk to open the show….that’s too much gaga , tired of beyonce, and everybody else sucks performance wise…….where’s tina, janet, prince?

  15. small_angel January 19, 2012

    No Beyonce and Christina Aguilera? it would be boring!!!
    At least we have Rihanna… She will save the show….

  16. Royalkev January 19, 2012

    Gaga to open and close – that’s ridiculous! The Force feeding never ends with this woman. Why do the public have to have their arm bent when it’s clear that she will never be the one on top with this BTW era. Hell, give this air time to Adele! She obviously the people’s choice. I swear if I did think Bey was popping up, I wouldn’t subject myself to this cruelty.

  17. Kingphoenix January 19, 2012

    @Kimberly
    LOl. Calm down lady, I said “supposedly” go after Gaga stans and the media, not me! 🙂
    But seriously, Gaga has accomplished a lot in such a short time…She is really a force, and i know that because of her talent, drive, and overall out-put…Even our Mutha & Slayer Beyonce absolutely loves Gaga because she is such a force, and has worked with her TWICE! Beyonce, doesn’t work with just anyone and to do it twice is a statement in itself. Yet i do understand what you are saying because Gaga has a long way to go…I think Madonna will always be the real “Queen of Pop” because she has proven so much and has helped defined pop music…But all those pop stars are really so manufactured and processed that I really could careless who is “Pop Royalty” because the genre is so fickle…Am RnB/Soul ride or die, and the current Queen of RnB to me is Beyonce (with a splash of urban pop) …so all that other shyt is for the birds.

  18. Roman January 19, 2012

    What kinda fuckery is this???

    Born This Way sold well yes, but it’s single did bad. Loud outperformed BTW singles wise and lagged slightly behind with album sales, why is Rihanna only getting 3 mins with Coldplay…

    I guess I’ll be turning the TV on 5 minutes late, and turning it off 5 mins early.. -___-

  19. Poisonous January 19, 2012

    ONLY Le Queen can Open and Close The Grammys. Le MadT??? LMAO

  20. RICK January 19, 2012

    NO BEYONCE NO GRAMMYS OR ANY OTHER AWARDS SHOW !!!!!!!!!!!!THE NUMBERS ALWAYS INCREASE WHEN SHE IS THEARE AND WHEN SHE IS ABOUT TO PERFORM
    THEY ROBBED HER AND I AM GLAD THAT SHE WILL NOT BE THERE
    BORING AS HELLLLLLLLLLLLL
    GAGA TO DO BOTH THAT IS RIDICULOUS COULD HAVE FOUND SOME ONE ELSE

  21. JohnVidal January 19, 2012

    @kimberly
    Relax! haha I was thinking about madonna. I said it cos the other day I was sying Gaga got recognition from the start while Madonna didn´t get til the 90´s (10-15 years after her debut)
    That being said, Beyonce is no queen of anything either. It was clear in the real divas poll and also in that Clint Eastwood post in which people perfectly defined Beyonce´s voice compared to teh true greats 🙂

    @ Kingphoenix
    She has nothing to prove when it comes to that in this year´s grammys. She always sings live and plays piano like crazy. Never saw Madonna doing it :). Just her performance with Sugarland in the grammy nominees concert is enough prove that she doesn´t need to prove anything when it comes to Madonna comparisions

  22. JohnVidal January 19, 2012

    Also, stop bringing up Adele, don´t you know she is resting her voice??? There won´t be performance, unless they do it as a surprise comeback. So Gaga is the most exciting one after her

  23. JohnVidal January 19, 2012

    @roman
    Cos grammys are supposed to be about talent. Rihanna performing for 3 minutes with Coldplay is disgrace enough

  24. Those That Cannot Do, Stan January 19, 2012

    Eh, good luck to her, her performances lately have been lackluster.

  25. Kingphoenix January 19, 2012

    @Johnvidal

    You sure she has nothing to prove, because it seems as though no one is checking for her so much…Her performances are already anticipated…We all know she can sing and play the piano. So can Alicia Keys, Elton John, Prince and so many more who does it even better than she. Her VMA’s performance was completely dry…And dont try to discredit Madonna, she maybe a crazy vicious b****, but she is a crazy vicious b**** that has set the stage for artist like Gaga who have clearly studied the “Madonna Formula” and use it frequently.

  26. midnitevow January 19, 2012

    An honor bestowed; an honor deserved. Gaga is gaining momentum…

  27. Dunkfan January 19, 2012

    That Grape juice should compare both Madonna Supper Bowl and Lady Gaga performance and see which artist comes on top for Best Performance.

  28. JohnVidal January 19, 2012

    @Kingphoenix
    We agree then, don´t we? Never saw Madonna in her first decade singing live, and singing well or play instruments though. That´s why she never was recognized until 1997. Just that

  29. JohnVidal January 19, 2012

    @dunkfan
    No point. Madonna´s performance will be an spectacle and probably lipsynced like most of supper bowl performances while Gaga will be more grammy ish, live singing and playing piano, more simple

  30. Just Me January 19, 2012

    These awards shows now show the same performers. You have so many people out there but continue to bring the same people on stage over and over, thats crazy.

  31. Yellow Gorillah January 19, 2012

    Really open and CLOSE =/ OK!!

    Atleast we now know she ain’t winning album of the year.

    + WHY the hell is beyonce gone perform she is so WASHED! And none of her material this era are even worth her perfoming that is why she did not even get nominated.

    I think the line up is ok so far they need more poeople

    Lady gagas performances this era have not been sall that great!!! I hink it was also a WRONG idea to fire LAURIANNE! Ever since her performance shave been going DOWN!! This performances will make or break her.

  34. Smudgemonster January 19, 2012

    Gaga rocks. She kills it every time in live performance! Sick of hearing about Madge: she’s a bitter and twisted old bag with a new plastic face that could never sing in the first place. Check out her record of court appearances for nicking and lip syncing other peoples stuff. Rihanna’s Umbrella was good, but all she can do now is sing about bumping and grinding. None of them write their own stuff or decide what to put out: they’re a bunch of puppets compared to the Mother Monster. Gaga has invented ELECTRO POP OPERA. She kills it. End of.

  35. WHUT January 19, 2012

    @Yellow DON’T BE SURPRISED if that clown tries to get the Grammys to stream a video of her singing next to Ingrid’s….err…..her child’s cradle. LOLOL!! That b**** would pull some stunts like that, heck if your pimping the child before its ass is even developed there is nothing you won’t do. Nothing shocks me with Cicely Tyson Senior.

  36. Smudgemonster January 19, 2012

    Hey Pop Royalty (The Behive) Adele wont be there cos she cant sing (she’s lost her voice). So whats there left when she aint got no voice? Eye candy? I dont think so, haha! Anyway, her songs are lose the will to live stuff.

  37. JohnVidal January 19, 2012

    @poproyalty
    It´s like you are really hating Gaga. We know it´s Adele´s night. Your point is? Is Beyonce going to perform at all? Has she any significant nominations for that “masterpiece” of an album called 4? I´m sure not. So? Do I need to bash her just cos Adele slayed this year? By that logic she got slayed by everyone, not only Adele. Adele is not going to perform, so yes, the best thing will be Gaga singing live and playing piano, sorry

  38. ♛ pop royalty ♛ ( The BeyHive ) January 19, 2012

    @john :

    1. don’t bring beyonce into this , adele OVER-slayed everybody , your mommy monster included. with 10+5 million albums sold 😉 #SWAG
    2.i hate GAGA ” the stupid character she trapped in since paparazzi” and i love stefani, i’m sure u know that.
    3. i think that “the best thing” will be painfully boring to some ppl.

  39. #1QueenGaga January 19, 2012

    OMG!!!!!! im gonna die!!!! THE QUEEN OF POP HAS ARRIVED!!!!!!!! B******!!!!!

  40. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) January 19, 2012

    Honestly? How much more extravagant promo is this woman and her album going to get?? Her album campaign is O-V-E-R. A medley of a bunch of album tracks/ singles in a 6-minute performance would definitely be enough. I don’t see why she has to perform twice! 😮

    And also, with all due respect, you seem to be sure that the Grammy’s organizers wanted GaGa to have a major role in this year’s show. I’m sure her label has much more to gain from this double Grammy appearance than the Grammy’s themselves 😉

    And seriously, why did you have to shade so many artists just to praise Beyonce and GaGa? 🙄

  41. dang January 19, 2012

    SO EXCITED! HOPE SHE PERFORMS HEAVY METAL LOVAH AND MARRY THE NIGHT!

  42. A Nu Day Has Come January 19, 2012

    You b****** will except any boring ass artist to preform at the Grammy’s!! Every year this h** preforms, same Illuminati, meat dress, satanic b*******!! I swear back in the day , there were so many artist to choose from, that you didn’t get the same people year after, year! There was a wide verity, plus most the artist knew how to fuking sing!! Not sayin that Lady Gaga doesn’t have talent, but for once can we please get some “Other” people besides the same ones year after year! Then you act like this b**** is soooooooooooo groundbreaking! She copies the real legends, then she wonders why, the likes of Madonna be callin her ass out!!! I’m really starting to believe that the industry is trying to keep real talent from shining, and constantly keeping the same f****** people in the spot light all the f****** time! I swear we as the public need to boycott this b*******, the Grammy’s try to push off for talnet! With Rihanna, Gaga preforming I’ll just change the channel! I want to see real singers again at the Grammy’s , not a b**** that has to push, and make herself known!! Real artist know how to just bring without all the extra b*******!!!!!

  43. I’ma have to send her to her maker January 19, 2012

    I thought nicki minaj was opening it?

  44. I’ma have to send her to her maker January 19, 2012

    If anyone is overrated it’s adele. I can’t even go a minute online without seeing this whale’s face on my screen saying she’s number 1 on billboard. Wow, she’s a good singer. But other than that she’s pretty boring. Lady gaga is AN ARTIST. You all will deal.

  45. TruthTeller January 19, 2012

    Didn’t she already open last year?

    The advantage of White Privilege will NEVER seize to amaze me.
    Is she the album queen? NOPE Adele is.
    Is she the hit queen? NOPE Rihanna is
    Is she the voice of her generation? NOPE Xtina is.
    Is she the radio queen? NOPE Rihanna is.
    Is she the dancing queen? NOPE Ciara is.

    It seems like all u have to do in the world is to be a white woman to get ahead.

  46. ♛ pop royalty ♛ ( The BeyHive ) January 19, 2012

    adele don’t copy to get #1’s.
    adele write amazing songs , not ra ra roma ama , ga ga oh la la ! 😡
    adele sell with no gimmicks involved in the process.

    adele keep it about the music. no extras on board.
    adele’s gender never was questioned 😆

    and most importantly , adele is not a REDUCTIVE gimmick 😉

  47. ♛ pop royalty ♛ ( iMusic ) January 19, 2012

    @truth :

    U r 50% right.

    the media , in general , do not appreciate black culture !!

  48. corey January 19, 2012

    open and close..thats a bit much and so disrespectfull to other artist that have worked hard and put out great music..

  49. Vandrea January 19, 2012

    2nd choice… you know so good and well if they could have gotten Adele over Gaga, they would have.

  50. JDGAF January 19, 2012

    Nobody is checking for Gaga now. I expect this to stink every bit as much as her awful VMA performance and get up.

  51. WHUT January 19, 2012

    As long as the Queen gets at least 2 performances like last time I could care less.

    POC/TTT and possibly 1 grammy award and the navy will have no problems.

  52. King B January 19, 2012

    Open AND close? I love Gaga, but that’s overkill. I certainly don’t mind her doing one or the other, but giving her both performing slots is unfair. It doesn’t even make sense to do so since she’s not the one dominating the nominations. And I do believe that around the time of Adele’s surgery, it was said that she would recover well enough to perform at the Grammys, so I’d be shocked if she didn’t. Even if Beyoncé was invited to perform, she couldn’t. I mean she just gave birth, for crying out loud.

  53. JohnVidal January 19, 2012

    @pop
    and you tell me to stop bringing your fav artists ever (Beyonce) when this has nothing to do with Adele and you bring her again and again??? Stop it, Gaga is doing it big way. Madonna needed 15 years for this type of critical recognition. And also, yeah that´s what I mean, only Adele slayed Gaga, Beyonce got slayed by many this 2011, including the grammys voters, strange cos 4 was for the quality right? 🙂
    And you know I adore Adele and like Madonna, so my point is you could start to be more impartial when it comes to Gaga cos lately…

  54. JohnVidal January 19, 2012

    @kingB
    You are missed here! Few sane persons on TGJ. I think it´s not going to be two performances by her. It will be one solo and another with somebody else, a great collabo like with Elton John two years ago or like in the grammy nominees concert with Sugarland

  55. King B January 19, 2012

    @ John Vidal:

    I wonder who that would be… I don’t think she’ll be perform with Elton again (though you never know), and I don’t see her performing with Sugarland again, either.

  56. mobwife January 19, 2012

    WTF? Who in the hell wants to see that B*TCH twice? I hate the music industry. There are so many wonderful artists that they will not display so MAN F**KING CACA can PILFER more Madonna music and dance moves! I may have to avoid this common everyday award show this year. Let’s see how many times have we seen non-talented, fake Lil Kim take the stage at an award show? How about non-talented, stiff as a board, vocally challenged Rihanna? Damn, is Paul McCartney still alive? I guess the fact that he beat his last wife escaped the hypocrites at the Grammy’s? *side f**king eye*

  57. Yellow Gorillah January 19, 2012

    It’s a MESS How MUCH Promo BTW Has Gotten YET The album has STILL Not sold over 6million

    She done more promo then

    Rihanna+ Britney + Beyonce PUT TOGETHER! and the s*** still could not even BEAT ADELE! LOOOOOOOOOL

    How many performances had adele even done in america lool she just needs to give up with this era and start the NEW ERA Already..

    She better perform S*** or Heavy Metal Lover.

  58. ADC143 January 19, 2012

    I’m not here for copycats and that’s what Gag is a copycat.

  59. Mafalo January 19, 2012

    John Vidal is full of s*** with that “respect” crap. The Grammy’s are chaired by a committee of record label executives who stan for the artists they have professional and personal ties to. You are a complete dumbass (!) if you think who is nominated/win has anything to do with “respect.” And really who cares? By the end of Madonna’s 3rd album her record sales and # of hits AVALANCHED where Gaga is at right now…. 😀 …and she wasn’t even done peaking, unlike Gaga whose latest album sold LESS than the one before it.

    Shut up.

  61. BAM!! January 19, 2012

    Yall people are f****** ridiculous!! Gaga is not attention-seeking!! She’s just the only one that can put on a good show!! like seriously noone (except beyonce) can perform good these days. I’m sure adele will perform. P.S. You haters are the ones that are giving her the attention that you say ” she wants” so keep typing DUMB B******!!

  62. EJ January 19, 2012

    Who in the f*** would be fans of somebody that calls themselves “Lady Gaga?” Just her name makes her sound stupid and something to avoid. Y’all are a generation of dorks who be liking them silly cartoon character pop stars. LMAO! I’m good on all that. I like my stars cool and normal, not showing up looking like Hanniber Lector and whatnot, acting like they’re on crack.

  63. Ass January 19, 2012

    At I’ma have to send her….”If anyone is overrated it’s adele. I can’t even go a minute online without seeing this whale’s face on my screen saying she’s number 1 on billboard. Wow, she’s a good singer. But other than that she’s pretty boring. Lady gaga is AN ARTIST. You all will deal.”
    ——–
    I completely agree with you. I see especially one specific very bitter OLDONNA and beyonce fan, who always for s*** to talk, if it aint his “queens”.

    They have no choice but to deal! I like bey, but she not around, and no one wants to see OLDONNA flash her creaky p****.

    Reductive>>>> Regurgitation
    Gaga>>>>>>> Vadge

    8) 😉

  64. B. Hill January 19, 2012

    Hey Ass, MTN flopped and BTW fell short of selling what THE FAME did. Adele beat her in album sales and Katy beat her in hits. T***** Reductive’s 15 minutes is now officially down to 2.

    Haha.

    No one wants to see that t*****’s deflated “99cent” d***. She’s proving herself to be what everyone said she was from day 1: a FAD!

    Madonna >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Gaga/Reductive.

    You mad? Be mad! Cry so I can laugh in your face some more.

    😀

  65. Ass January 19, 2012

    B hill

    What exactly would I be crying about?? Her selling 5 mil plus when on adele and Rih sold more?

    How is that a failure when every other artist including Bey, Katy, etc sold less??!

    You gags and your propensity to over dramatize, ne’er faills to make me giggle.

    And which out off all these b****** made the most touring. Look at the over all picture dumbass and stop tring to spin.

    Let see how this new Vadge album does. I’m pretty sure it will tank like her last one. No one is interested in her granny snatch but you f***! The well has run dry for the queen of gimmicks!

    Run along fool. 8)

  66. Ass January 19, 2012

    Let me know who you stan for fool. The only one that did better than gaga was Adele with record sales. Rih an gaga where neck and neck. So if gaga is a flop the bey and every other person that sold less thank gaga, or their last album is a flop too!

    See how faulty your logic is fool! kick rocks with that s***.

    And who do you for that did better than gags? I know Adele right? I love you peons trying to hide behind her skirt to shade others!

    Your a Vadge fan so stop the bullcrap! Vadge won’t sell more than BTW so deal.

    Lady Reductive>>>> Mistress man hands!

    Deal b****. 😉

  67. B. Hill January 19, 2012

    @ASS

    What should you be crying about?

    A pretty big list…let’s see…

    – That she was upstaged embarrassingly last year by Adele and Katy. Gaga promised the “album of the decade” but Adele slayed her 2x with probably less than 1/2 the promo. And Katy could release a single of just her sneezing and it would race to #1 5x faster than anything Gags put out.

    – That she had to price her s*** 99cents to get it to sell. Do you KNOW how bad that made her look? LOL

    – That none of the singles this era made much impact except the one she was accused of COPYING (lol) and that the last one just FLOPPED outright.

    – That she was voted MOST OVERRATED in a recent Billboard readers poll.

    – That BTW was promoted more than any other album in recent memory and STILL sold LESS than the one before it…and she’s only 2 albums in! Bad sign! LOL.

    This whole era has been a FAILURE and we all know it. T***** Reductive is rapidly playing out. Don’t pretend you haven’t noticed! Ha. And if that silly freak made the most money from touring, it’s only because she kept herself on the road longer than everybody else.

    Far as Madonna goes…Interscope Records (Gaga’s label) was sure interested in her, that’s why they laced her with a 40 million record deal, worth more than Gaga’s. Madonna could “tank” for the rest of her career and Gaga will NEVER catch up to her in total record sales!

    T***** Reductive (aka Gaga) is WACK. LOL

    Haha. You lose! 😀

    …oh and here’s some interesting reading! LOL

    “LADY GAGA
    Behind the ludicrous and attention-seeking Halloween costumes, the obnoxiously overblown music videos, the swagger jacking of Madonna’s personality, and the conspicuous plot to manipulate the socially awkward and misfits of society into thinking that they have a voice (and are empowered) through her, is a bunch of banal and contrived gibberish heavily propped by media hype that does not live up to it. What began as a bouncy, pixyish, one-woman-show-esque version of what the Spice Girls did in the late 90s has now become an egotistical, overproduced–yet still oddly generic–mess of grating sounds that is irritating to listen to and takes itself too seriously.

    Once upon a time this character that is ‘Lady Gaga’ may have provided a cheeky and quirky contrast to what had been the model of what was popular, and it may have been quasi-endearing, but when pop stars infuse that much camp into their image, at a certain point the irony *will* get old and lose its charm. In the meantime, this woman has literally crammed about a decades worth of gimmicks, put-on’s and media saturation into a three year span. We have seen her show up kite high, in meat dresses, with horns attached to her head, dressed as a man, with discharged gay soldiers as her escorts, etc., etc. The ‘shtick’ is old. There are only so many heavy-handed stunts you can use to dumbfound the public into noticing before they become either hostile or jaded, and a backlash ensues.

    Lady Gaga has always been a ‘character’ for show, but she has become a caricature and a parody of herself. No longer is it “refreshing,” abstract or inventive; it is now tired and dated. Overexposure is killing the cat and quite frankly Gaga is losing her relevance. By making herself into such a sneaky little cartoon who is force-fed to the public in obscene dosages, she has backed herself into a corner. The only thing left for her to do at this point is to throw on a pair of jeans and act normal, but how boring would that be for someone who named herself ‘Lady Gaga’ and made being strange her ticket to fame? She was here; she dominated the world of music and got her press, but the milk is now sour. The writing was on the wall when dowdily dressed and anything-but-flashy Adele c*** blocked what was supposed to be a Gaga-dominating 2011. Kids do not listen to her, it is not “cool” to be a walking freak show…and quite frankly it is not cool to like Lady Gaga now.”

    You are such a silly f**. Once again Lady Gaga had the 3rd biggest selling album of last year. All her singles where succesful. Success is more than just # 1’s idiot. Top tens are still successful singles. Adele sold more than anyone not just gaga so what is your point. The only reason Madonna was given that contract was because of the press that goes along with her. That is all.
    She won’t clear even 5mil worldwide so keep dreaming fool. Bo one cares for your fossil anymore. So find a d*** and sit and spin!

    Keep publish that same tired article, cause there are many more on the scam that is OLDONNA.

    Real talent(Gaga)>>>> dry snatch tramp(OLDONNA)!

    Deal f**!

    Oooh, did I strike a nerve? LMAO!

    The point, Asshole, is that BTW underperformed — period! With all the pre-hype and massive amounts of promo ($$$$) that went into that album, they didn’t want “3rd biggest.” WTF is that??? They were aiming for HIGHEST and for it to AT LEAST do as well as THE FAME, but it didn’t even do that! By industry standards you are only as good as the sales of your last album, so that alone makes BTW a FLOP. It hasn’t even been a year and Interscope is already ending promotion of this underwhelming project. After inflation I wouldn’t be surprised if it didn’t turn a profit and put T***** Reductive in debt to the label. Why the hell do you think she is doing another album so soon?! LOL!!!!!!! Dumbass!

    Far as your explanation about why Madonna got that fat contract goes…SMH…damn you stupid! Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan all get a lot of press surrounding their names too, probably more than Madonna herself does these days, but do you think ANY record label would give them that kind of money to record for them? 😆 Hello, McFly anyone home??? What did you score on the SAT’s?

    You just got knocked on your Ass, Ass. Seriously fool, stop because you’ve been royally clowned here. Your anger is fun though! I’d probably be mad too if the pop star I liked was in decline after only 2 studio albums. 🙂 I know you don’t like to hear the truth but tough, I’m not here to be nice. So YOU deal, F**.

    Hahaha. 😉

    Actually Born This Way was the SECOND best selling album WORLDWIDE last year, there is a whole wide world outside f****** America you know! I have a feeling they may have wanted Adele to do one of the performances but its pretty obvious she isn’t going to be fit to perform – Gaga always nails it live, she is the best live performer I have ever seen. She is in her element on stage, such tremendous stage presence, she has a great voice for live music and can play several instruments to a high standard, why do you think all the REAL legends like Liza Minelli, Elton John, Cher, Tony Bennett (I could go on) think so much of HER rather than any of the other younger pop females? Could it possibly be because they recognise her genuine talent and the fact she NEVER lipsyncs?

    I’m more interested in what she will perform, the Born This Way performance last year was excellent but I doubt she would do the same song two years in a row. I’d like her to do one of the songs people haven’t heard yet off the Born This Way album, maybe whatever she is considering for her next single? I also hope she wins Best Pop Album, Adele is likely to take the main album award, 2011 really was her year but she isn’t a pop singer, something the Grammies actually get right unlike most people ;o)

  75. Madonna’s Wrinkled P**** January 20, 2012

    LMAO @ B HILL — trust me your comments do not bother anybody especially FANS because you’re just a hater and you will always hate. For a hater, you sure do spend a lot of time on this thread bashing the album! You can bash her all you want, but is she going anywhere? Lol . I think not!
    As for your comment “By industry standards you are only as good as the sales of your last album, so that alone makes BTW a FLOP.” How does that even make sense when The FAME has sold more albums but has been out longer?? I can say that then, Madonna, Katy Perry, and many other artists have flopped before. I can assure you that the Tour will help to bring in more sales and the album will have sold over 10 million by the end of the year. You can quote me on that.

    anywhooo KEEEP the comments rolling in! You fail to realize that good or bad publicity is always GOOD for an artist. There will always be haters like you 🙂 xxxoxox we love you!

    Saetana and Madonna’s wrinkled p****

    Thanks for putting it out there. Exactly what you both said. To the dummy debating the real issues, keep reaching hun. I’m very confident that Madonna’s numbers will never reach even BTW numbers.You know that to which is why you say if she tanks it won’t matter. Keep living in the past with that creaky p****. She ain’t gonna do s*** to the legacy Gaga is creating. She is done hun.

    No one is pressed but you. I’m laughing at you. When her numbers come in for her latest album. I will laugh my ass of at u and her.

    I gaurantee, you won’t be so cocky then. Still laughing at you ho. Keep talking s***. You can’t hear logic with those d**** in your ear stay pressed.

    Good day f**! Lmao!

    I rather watch Madonna kill it at the Super Bowl. Why take the copy when you can have the real thing? I GaGa needs the attention b/c Adele is going to sweep the Grammy’s and without these performances GaGa wouldn’t even get mentioned in the coverage

    I’m not watching the Grammys if beyonce is not performing!!
    Beyonce gives life to an award show and without her it would be so so so lame!
    Grammy committee made a huge mistake when they didn’t nominate her in major categories and if they don’t let her perform they truly undoubtly suck out loud!
