Must See: Lady GaGa Performs ‘Do What U Want’ Live At #VEVOArtRave

Upon the unveiling of Lady GaGa‘s predicted opening numbers for new LP ‘ARTPOP‘, there’s no doubt many a ‘spectator’ rejoiced at the sight of what they believed was the performer’s downfall.

Alas, in confusing her with the carefully crafted constructs called her contemporaries, these detractors saw the general public’s apparent ‘withdrawal’ from the entertainer as the KO her career had been calling for since the release of ‘Born This Way.’

Unfortunately, as history has relayed many a time, talent never stays down for too long and will always be held in higher regard than the enjoyable yet highly disposable microwave Pop cuts spawned by ladies yet to prove how they’d fare without the benefit of the creatives tasked with upholding their careers.

Ladies, yet to make the impact GaGa has in their own respective genres or in the world at large.

Now, hit the play button below to witness the talent that will see her career/legacy outlive those of the aforementioned puppets and be sure to weigh in below!

See what we mean?

Sure, while the ‘alienating’ ‘Born This Way’ has served to sever the secure bond she shared with the public, Germanotta’s musicality has already seen her earn her place in history as an act whose talent speaks more loudly than any shop bought hit can.

Does that talent excuse the noise currently sounding ‘ARTPOP‘s campaign?

No. However, what it does ensure are touring capabilities that will last far longer than her run on the charts will. Put it this way, can any of us see the likes of Rihanna, Katy Perry or Nicki Minaj wowing audiences in a decade’s time?

No?

Yeah…neither can we.

Your thoughts?

    This song is definitely gaga’s best song ever. It’s just so amazing.

    • Artbarf November 15, 2013

    • Flop What U Like November 15, 2013

        Who the hell are you, always trying to comment under my user name???

    • Janet November 15, 2013

      hahaha…
      but the performance was basic.
      Nothing near to Britney & Beyonce during their peak. lol
      This lady is funny.
      Now I know why her album is flopping and she’s fading too fast

  2. Tisha November 15, 2013

    Lord Sam, you pulled everything out of your b*** on this one.

    You can mock Rihanna, Katy, and Nicki but the fact is each of those ladies has found their own special niche and is KILLING IT.

    Gaga on the other hand has been throwing spaghetti against the wall praying something sticks. When the next album sells 80k on opening will you be rambling about her 1 out of 10 good performances too?

    • iconriri2013 November 15, 2013

      Rihanna is good friends with the dude that broke Sam’s heart.excuse the hate

  4. GAGATHETRUTH November 15, 2013

    SIPS HENNESSY!

    • Basura Caliente November 15, 2013

      Where were you when they announced Gaga will be selling 275k and not 475k?

      We looked for you but you were no where to be found.

      • ok November 15, 2013

        Lol 265 – 275k

      • Common Sense November 15, 2013

        240k-260k now after yesterday’s update 😀

  5. MusicLover November 15, 2013

    Yes Lady Gaga is the queen of pop just like Britney Spears. I love her performance and her song. It is nice that thatgrapejuice put her performance on here. Who cares about how much her album would sell. Her album came out since on monday. Most people don’t care less about album these days they rather go for singles from albums. Singles are way better then albums these days.

    • Slayty Perry (Birthday) November 15, 2013

      That excuse would work if Gaga was selling singles but all her promo singles flopped, as did Applause. She’s being outsold by Disney and Nickelodeon stars

  6. Rio November 15, 2013

    One of the few songs i like on the album.

  7. Rolling Stone November 15, 2013

    She’s the next queen of pop!!!!!!!!

  8. I am above u November 15, 2013

    OMG she looks like she just been let out of the crazy home!

  9. rih rox((U mad Bro?))(( stanning for H20’s previous rant)) November 15, 2013

    Manly gaga is just recycling…. I’ve seen that outfit from previous “era”. Guess she’s running out of clothes too.

  10. Lovebird (Britney Jean – 03.12.13) November 15, 2013

    Not 61 metacritic score though

    NOT Artpop predictions falling to 240K.

  11. Lovebird (Britney Jean – 03.12.13) November 15, 2013

    ULTIMATE DEATH, I thought Samantha was Team Minaj, and yet you’re throwing shade. LMAO I CAN’T.

  12. DOSSOME November 15, 2013

    LOL @ the minaj shade….so true btw

  13. Natasha3 November 15, 2013

    Not everyone buys albums!!!! Some people just prefers to buy the singles that they like from their favorite artists albums. I personally prefers to buy only singers because when I brought albums I only finds a few singles that l liked or love from a 10 or 16 tracks albums from artists like Rihanna, Beyonce, Celine Dion Mariah Carey Whitney Houston, Britney Spears, Toni Braxton, Boyz 2 Men, New Edition, Christina Aguilera, etc…….I have brought their albums and have yet to find me loving all the tracks on their albums. No matter what Sam and others who might disapprove of Rihanna, Katy Perry, Britney Spears, etc….., their songs WILL be played and remembered many years from now whether we agree or disagree!!!!!

    • DOSSOME November 15, 2013

      Katy Perry hasn’t put out anything memorable to be remembered many years to come

      • Slayty Perry (Birthday) November 15, 2013

        It’s too early to say about the Teenage Dream era but you’re in denial if you try to down play I Kissed A Girl

  14. DOSSOME November 15, 2013

    Gaga will be fine…Remember she’s an ARTIST with TALENT to back the gimmick that she truly doesn’t need…That can’t be said about some “singers” though

    • J.E November 15, 2013

      In your wish she has a talent. Mediocracy.. That’s all she is.

  15. Slayty Perry (Birthday) November 15, 2013

    Typical LittleSuicides. Cant praise your fav with out bringing down other artist. Nicki’s career is already dead, but idk how you can come for Rihanna or Katy. I don’t use Rihanna but her career is a few years short of a decade already and she’s on the biggest tour of her career. And if current stats are anything to go bye, Katy will only continue to rise. Roar out performed any of the singles off Teenage Dream or One of the Boys and Prism is doing better than both. No doubt the tour will be bigger. Every aspect of this era has been an improvement of the one before it as the Teenage Dream era was to OOTB. Gags meanwhile peaked with The Fame and has been in decline since.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if this extra shade stems from hurt feelings after the AMA icon award announcement and Artflop’s new predictions.

  16. The Edge of Glory Hole November 15, 2013

    Please Gaga, nothing could save this era. You could never be like Bey or Rihanna….not even Britney.

    Please retire….

  17. Your Body Like A Pancake November 15, 2013

    Another performance; another garbage.

  18. Lady TrynaHard November 15, 2013

    ……forgettable performance as usual. Good bye. 🙁

  19. CARMEN (formerly IM A FREE B*TCH) November 15, 2013

    was this article written throw shade towards Rihanna because of the backlash you got on that Rihanna post Sam? cos it sure as hell does seem like it. and throwing Katy and Nicki names into e mix doesn’t make u look like ure being objective.
    and as a matter of fact i can see Nicki wowing audiences still in 10 years, she has talent (in rapping not singing) as long as she stays true to her hip hop roots and not pull that pop s*** ever again, she has it.
    but then again the point of this article was to clearly take aim at the comments calling u a hater on that rihanna post. seeing right through sam

  20. Tik Tok Boom November 15, 2013

    At least, DO WHAT U WANT, just this one track from ARTPOP, it is still much better than the whole PRISM album.

    Katy Perry’s PRISM is nothing but a trash, incredibly undeverloped!

    • Slayty Perry (Birthday) November 15, 2013

      Artpop: 61 on Metacritic
      Prism: 62 on Metacritic
      Don’t you Monsters cling to those reviews? Lmao!

      • Tik Tok Boom November 15, 2013

        LOL just this? So pity, if your life depend on it.

        #speechless

    • JOHNVIDAL November 15, 2013

      Exactly! I agree.

  21. Dreamlover November 15, 2013

    She is obviously very talented and can sing (especially in the last two minutes of the performance). Her arrogance and pretentiousness has really irritated me for the past few years. With the Fame/Fame Monster eras, she was just having fun, her music videos were artsy/innovative/funny and irreverent, which was refreshing. Now she’s just shoving down our throats how “progressive” and “artistic” she is, which is really getting old. I think the public is tired of her. Still like this song though. Hopefully the failure of this era will cut her down to size so she can go back to the drawing board and come harder next time.

  22. My Forehead Tho November 15, 2013

    Who?

  23. Wackie November 15, 2013

    Lady Gaga is an idiot….just like her fans.

  24. Queen Mother November 15, 2013

    Karma is taking this thieving h** down a peg or 2′ and that performance is just as stale as artflop.

  25. Kim (Beyonce/Rihanna fan) November 15, 2013

    Talented but so overrated.

  26. Next???? November 15, 2013

    she is getting boring now.

  27. Bey Fan November 15, 2013

    Yall cant take this womans talent away… I only like about 4 tracks on the album. But I think it may have legs simply because she can perform and she’s talented. And she’s not lazy

  28. JOHNVIDAL November 15, 2013

    “Do what you want” is an amazing pop song. And that´s all that matters. I´m tired of all these stanning s***. Music is the important thing. And Gaga is very talented. Same with Mariah´s not very commercial single. The important thing is that it is a great song and the album looks like it will be top class. This generation is quickly forgetting what music and talent is and only focus on “cool” and “natural” or what they think it is.
