In their latest tirade, Fox News have taken aim with Lady GaGa‘s record-breaking ‘Telephone’ video. During a segment titled ‘Has Lady GaGa Gone Too Far?’, the network – who are no strangers to nitpicking at the music industry – critiqued the video for ‘poisoning the youth of today’, hitting out against its provocative nature. Peep the segment below…
I’m assuming I pretty much speak for the majority when I say… ‘whatever!’ Besides the fact artists such as Madonna have gone much further when it comes to provocativeness, the whole piece just seemed like two-old fossils spouting bias nonsense. Surely there are more serious issues going on in the world which are just begging for more airtime than a relatively tame Lady GaGa video? Things that make you go ‘hmmm’. Sigh….
Fox don’t like anything progressive. Horrible right wing “news” outlet…
Fox News Just Wants Some Attention..
This is all, they are trying to get people to talk about their station. Anything to create controversy, and any controversy is good to them. Good or bad! They have tried to push there right wing conservative agenda for years! F*** fox news! There is more important things to talk about besides that WACK a** video that has been canned by critics for being over hyped and not meeting the hype it created. The song is wack the music video is random, and just an event for gay people. Nothing special, just too big names milking s*** wioth this wack a** video.
Find something else to talk about fox news. Dont waste time talking about an over hyped video that NO ONE really likes anyways. Except for the people who are obessesd with Beyonce and Lady Gag-Me
As much as i think they’re saying too much they’ve got a point, but then again if your gonna complain about one thing then you might as well complain about everything…i dunno its whatever i guess *kanye shrug*
What The Hell Ever Fox!
This is actually ridiculous, twisted and sexual fantasies? wtf? im furious with “she’s went too far” no, she hasnt went too far at all shes fantastic and if some elder TWAT who wont let her children buy her cd think that its too far she can take that fact and shove it where the sun don’t shy. Tit.
F*** FOX NEWS!
so
so what it’s fox news
I don’t like Fox, but on a side note I will never watch that video again. It was just vulgar for no good reason. It had nothing to do with the song and it was just crazy for no reason. I really do like Lady Gaga, but if i had kids I wouldn’t let them watch it.
I am almost sure that Lady Gaga would have kissed Beyonce but I am sure Beyonce’s dad wasn’t about to let her be apart of that.
I love Lady Gaga…I love her support for the gay community…and I love how different she is. She is an icon. I suppose people have to look at it as if she is Alice in Chains, Marilyn Manson, Ozzy Osbourne or some of the other provacative artists of our time.
But to hell with Fox.
this is the reasons I hate america! Small and close minded morans,
The one on the left is good looking.
Trash > FOX
Idiots!!! You can’t stop kids from doing what they want., banning a video is dumb! This song speaks of no killing anyone., it’s just entertainment., people die n movies allllll the time!!!
“gay and lesbian lovers…it’s just disgusting!” hey, hey, hey!!! Watch ur mouth! You are discriminating LGBTS Motherfcker!
Instead of reporting on Health Care or the creation of jobs, the resort to talking about Lady Gaga? I luv me some Gaga..don’t get me wrong. But for a newstation who’s supposedly to report REAL NEWS, they have failed. Gaga don’t pay my doctor bills or school loans. Fox News is just as MESSY as they ALWAYS have been!
The lady have a lil point, but when she got mad because they we’re gay lovers, WHO CARES?! What if it was a dude, & a girl & we’re straight lovers? Don’t matter. But, Megan has a point too.
Sam you are littlebit stupid…
You are making this video look like a new thriller but actually the video is boring and stupid.
FOX NEWS IZ RACIST.
THEY JUSS TRYNNA HATE ON BEY CUZ SHE MAKIN DAT PAPA!!!!!!!!!!!!
DAT BEYOCE RAIN JUSS WONT LET UP!!!!!
OFF WITCHO HEDS FOX NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everyone in AMERICA knows that “FOX NEWS” is the MOST BULLSH*T, RACIST, HOMOPHOBIC, HYPOCRITICAL, UNREALISTIC, “CONSERVATIVE” network. THEY TALKIN MAD B.S. ABOUT GAGA’s VIDEO BUT MADONNA had a video BANNED in America where she drove an old women around in a car killing random people, but they didn’t say sh*t about that.
FOX NEWS is NOT owned by the FOX network anymore, and ever since the split, FOX NEWS is a joke.
HYPO IN FULL EFFECT:
U ARE CRIYNG BAOUT RIHANNA BEIGN NAKED PERFORMING NAIKED WHATEVER ETC BUT GAGA CAN KISS A GIRL IN A VIDEO AND THATS COOL
SORRY BUT U R GAY; SO I SHOULD KNOW U SUPPORT THAT
I MENA I HAVE NO ISSUE WIRTH GAYS OR LESBIANS BUT THATRS HYPO
AND
“Surely there are more serious issues going on in the world which are just begging for more airtime”
SAME GOES FOR YOUR RIHANNA HATE
I BET THERES MUCH MORE REAL TALENT TO POST THAN HER HATE BUT U WONT
U SAID U LOOK FOR REAL TALENT AND U POST RIHANNA
SO SHES REAL TALENT
GAGA IS A GIMMICK AND FAKE
I do like Lady Gaga but I don’t like the video. The videio has some porno and ideas on how to kill people which is not good for children. I think there is no problem showing the video on MTV but is the TIME that they should show it, that won’t stop anyone from buying Lady Gaga music if they want to.
The lady has some great points about American Youth losing their innocence and some things not being appropriate for children of a certain age BUT it’s also a responsibility of the parents to explain to their children the materials that they may be subject to. Instead of banning provocative subject matters from Children, which is damn near impossible in this day and age, we should be focusing on countering these images and explaining to them what they mean and how to make judgments for themselves regarding those things. I am an adult of 25 years and to Ban materials that I find interesting and/or age appropriate for my age range because of fear that children will be subject to them is totally unfair to myself and people of similar ages.
i hate fox news!!!
UMM AFTER ALL THE S*** MADONNA, JANET, CHER, MICHAEL , PRINCE, LIL KIM ETC HAS DONE. N NOW THEY WANNA COMPLAIN?
WOW the comments on here are a bit strong!! All networks are bias, that’s just how it works!!!
I AGREE WITH THE ARGUMENT!!! This video has GONE TOO FAR!
it is too vulgar and should have a age restriction on it, therefor only played after the watershed (9pm) A film with this sort of sexual references and violence would be 15 as a minimum, so i think the same should apply
As a person who works with youth young people I see first hand, the kind of effects these videos have on young women & men… lets not be ignorant , and realise that images like these do change perceptions.
The media and parents have to take responsibility…
Beyonce & Lady Gaga and other only make what there is a demand for … it isn’t art at all, it a consumer product …if it didn’t sell they wouldn’t make it… if you get what I mean!!!!
I swear parents need to know that its your job to raise your child. NOT THE MEDIA!! Its COMMON SENSE don’t let your child watch the damn video! Don’t blame the media for your bad parenting skills!!
Girl bye Gaga can whatever she pleases and kids are gonna watch what the hell they want, and have they seen the things on youtube lol to be bitching about gaga, come again ladies!
sam you’re not speaking for everyone else. it’s boring and disgusting. the arguement about better things to report about is just stupid, considering you write about pointless music.
f*** all yall hater and fox news…..their both artist usings their crafts…..get off them……………….
shouldn’t have posted this.. those people are HUNGRY for attention.
the only people that watch faux news are illiterate dumbasses. they’re outraged by a little cleavage, yet has zero issues with violence. typical.
you don’t want to buy it? no biggie, 10 MILLION people already did. in the words of b scott… b****, boo, bye
LOL YOU KNOW WHAT? THAT CHICK MADE SOME GOOD POINTS. AS I WATCHED THAT VIDEO, I THOUGHT TO MYSELF “WHY DOES LADY GA GA ALWAYS MURDER SOMEONE IN HER VIDEOS?” THE YOUTH TODAY THINK THEY ARE GROWN AND HAVE NO RESPECT FOR LIFE IN GENERAL. THIS MESSAGE, ALONG WITH THE REST OF WHAT THE VIDEO SHOWS, DOES NOT HELP THE PROBLEM. I DO LIKE LADY GA GA BUT I CAN SEE WHAT PEOPLE ARE UPSET ABOUT. HOW CAN YOU NOT? ARE YOU ALL THAT IGNORANT? INCLUDING WHO EVER POSTED THIS. YES YOU CAN SAY MADONNA HAS DONE SOME RISKY THINGS, BUT THE LADY WAS RIGHT, MADONNA NEVER MURDERED A PERSON OR PERSON’S IN HER VIDEOS. I AINT MAD AT FOX, I’M NOT EVEN MAD AT GA GA, BUT I ALWAYS SAY SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT, LIKE SHE DOES ALL THIS FOR SHOCK VALUE.
Ummmmm…How exactly is “Telephone” record breaking? She delivered on the shock factor, but otherwise I thought it was underwhelming…Just my opinion…. BTW I’m a HUGE GaGa fan but she’s done much better…
fox news is a bunch of right-wing freaks who slam anything that isn’t saturated with jesus. First of all… no one was shocked by the video, its stupid and lady gaga has run out of tricks and surprises. second of all the video sucked and so does beyonce
Corruption , brainwashing little kids. How about you kids do a little research on your idols before you listen to their “awesome!” beat and watch their “awesome” videos.
Zombies , zombies , zombies
Faux News has nothing else to speak of. Seriously, Madonna has done much worse and besides, there are so many other IMPORTANT issues to talk about.
To be honest, I didn’t think that anything about the Telephone video was THAT over the top. For one thing, she’s getting criticized for dancing in her ‘bra and panties’ when you have numerous rap videos of women doing the same thing, or at least in extremely revealing clothing and you get them in WAVES either high quality with good artists or not, but there’s never an outrageous b******* feed back whenever THEY’RE released to the public? Sure, you get people who criticize rap for using that factor on the spritz, yet its not talked about to the degree that this is merely DAYS after this video was released.
Then along with the ‘killing’ thing..So what?
You have NUMEROUS intentional satanic and some death-metalcore bands who WANT people to see how to kill someone and so on in some of their music videos within that genre, yet barely ANY of it is given to Fox news? The Truth’ was actually quite right. FOX News ADORES controversy and since Gaga is on top of the world right now, they’re only riding on top of bashing this video because they want ratings since talking about Gaga is a definite cash-cow in business AND the irony is that they’re only feeding right into her hands.
Lady Gaga’s right hand is her ‘shock factor’ and everyone knows that. I actually find it retarded that she’s being bashed for being half naked for about….15% of THIS video whereas she was wearing bra and underwear for a much, much more extended about of time in her BAD ROMANCE video, yet everyone was focusing on the b******* Illuminati-controversy INSTEAD of that? People are just looking for EXCUSES to bash her for something. Gaga WANTS for people to talk about her because she’s trying to free our minds from all of the generic BS that we’re being shown from our culture. Like Fox News for example.
The Telephone video was about as tame as her “Eh, Eh, Nothin Else I can Say” video..literally. So what if she kissed a girl? It was BARELY a kiss at all. Gaga was just SITTING there and her lips were hardly moving whereas that (IRL) personal trainer was devouring her lips, yet you saw Gaga not really doing anything. Then at the same time, the REST of the video was her wearing a multitude of VERY, very tasteful outfits that covered the majority of her body, but in her own fashion sense.
So where does ANYONE get off saying that Gaga was too ‘sexual’ in this video? She has been sexual in all of her other videos. The most sexual one to date was Bad Romance, 2nd was “Dirty, Rich, Beautiful”, 3rd was “Pokerface.” Stop whining over this, honestly. She actually went a bit backwards with physical sexuality in this video and it was more focused on carefully focused innuendos. Like the chemistry that she had with Beyonce in the P**** Wagon.
There are so many OTHER artists that put their time…like The P**** Cat Dolls…- into grinding on top of cars, grinding into poles and so on…That being ‘sexual’ in music videos is just the norm’ these days. But if anything compared to what other people have done, such as Madonna….
Gaga has done absolutely nothing that should receive THIS sort of criticism for this particular video. Everything that Lady Gaga DOES and WEARS is MEANT to be a metaphor, don’t you understand? She only KILLS MEN in her VIDEOS to demonstrate that she doesn’t need a MAN in order to feel POWERFUL about herself.
Are some of you people honestly THAT narrow minded?
Its f****** 2010. Kids as young as 7 years old have been cursing, getting mini blowjobs and have been doing drugs in a wide, wide margin for the past 15 or 20 years. Gaga isn’t influencing anyone into doing negative s***. If you’re going to point your fingers at her for allegedly being ‘too controversial’ then look at the artists who have done legitimate raunchy things or scary things in their videos…THEN try to hold your arguments.
This isn’t 1985…
This is f****** 2010.
Grow up, America :/
WHY IS NO ONE EVER ADMITTING TO LADY GAGA ALWAYS BEING CLOSE TO NAKED IN EVERY VID SHES DONE 4 NO REASON. i LIKED THE VID…BUT HER AND THE REST OF THEM WHITE CHICKS DANCING IN PANTIES WAS JUST LIKE huh??? ITS OTHER WAYS TO HOLD UR AUDIENCE’S ATTENTION THEN TO BE N*** IN EVERY VIDEO. (EVEN THO I LIKED THE POLICE TAPE)
EVEN THO IT WAS FUNNY, HER HOPPING UP ON THE BARS WITH HER P**** IN THE CAMERA WAS ANTHOER WTF MOMENT.
THE “MASS MURDER” SCENE WAS NOT THAT BAD THO! THEY KEPT SAYING IT LIKE BEY AND GAGA MACHINE GUNNED THE WHOLE DINER. COME ON IT WAS ALMOST KINDA SLAPSTICK IF U ASK ME. THEY MADE A BIG DEAL ABOUT THAT.
IDK IM ON THE FENCE WITH THIS ONE. BUT SAM, TRENT, WHOEVER…YALL WOULD BE LYING THROUGH YALL’S FACES IF U DID. NOT. SEE. THIS. COMMING
SHE MADE A PRETTY RAUNCHY ALMOST U**** VID…AND WHEN VIEWING IF FRO THE FIRST TIME IT WAS PRETTY OBVIOUS AFTER THE FIRST 5 MIN THAT THERE WAS GONNA BE ALOT OF CONTROVERSY AROUND IT…WHETHER ITS THE CLOTHES, THE NUDITY, THE LANGUAGE, OR JUST CUZ OF WHO;S NAMES ARE ATTACTCHED TO IT.
iM NOT A FAN OF GAGA SO THIS WHOLE ANTICIAPTION THING WONT BE HAPPENEING AGAIN 4 ME. THIS AND PAPARAZZI WERE COOL SONGS BUT I DONT ANTICIPATE ANYMORE OF THE FUTURE SINGLES/VIDEOS FRM HER. NOT MY KINDA MUSIC.
Boy, do you get it yet. fox news, you’re not very well liked.
Sandy Rios you are out of your mind!!! Other cultures children are innocent. Ask the children from Sudan or Rwanda whether they feel innocent.
I’m so glad I don’t get fox news so i don’t have to watch it…
This is why I do not listen to this type of music. You have to be very careful what you feed your soul. No shade or disrespect to GaGa or Beyonce. I think they are very talented women. F@#k Fox News they hated on Barack his whole campaign. BTW MONICA STILL STANDING MARCH 23
I think that people are soooo willing to give gaga a pass for everything she does, all in the name of “creativity” but let this had been someone else doing this mess, namely a black artist, all hell would have broken loose. You notice that although beyonce was in the video, her parts were tame compared to what Gaga was doing, and has been doing since she arrived on the scene. The point is that it is only so far beyonce would go, but gaga is allowed to go all out, and people won’t blink an eye, and would even applaud and cheer her on, when if it was Beyonce or Any other black female artist, you all would have been calling them all kind of names. BTW, I don’t think gaga is this creative artist that you guys are trying to make her out to be, she carefully think things through so she can get the shock factor out of people, and try to be oh so different, but she is not more talented than Pink, and alot of other artists out there, she just got you guys fooled.

^The thing is..NEWSFLASHHATERS….that if it was a black artist doing all of that, there obviously would be hell because a large portion of the black community is still conservative and are still chained down by trying to assimilate into white society. Hence why they’re collectively conservative and you rarely see any Generation X or Baby Boomer-liberal blacks because people are still under the mysticism that if they ‘stand out’..then they’ll be a nail to be hammered.
Sometimes I think that people should stop living in the past and should stop pinning all of these ‘speculations’ to how someone within a certain ethnic group SHOULD act because the group itself is far too AFRAID to do any of that themselves for fear of not being accepted by the larger, dominant culture.

Tell this stupid b****… that like is full of different types of people… Because Lady doesn’t follow the “norm” does not mean that we can’t except difference. She looks AMAZING, and difference is not a factor in LIFE.
nah but the host, megan was defending her really..
Yeah I agree with most people on the Motherfuck Fox news! Who the f**** watches that lame ass channel anyways? Only hillbilly, racist, no culture, stuck in the 50’s Mormon affiliated m************! All they do is use dumb uncle tom ass Negroes to further spread hate, and division among our people, as well as people who believe in change and progress! They are so got damn hypocritical they think that everyone should be like then an live in a f****** bubble! I wouldn’t be supriased that they are in comblabtaion with the KKK to destroy Obama plan for change! E
****Yeah I agree with most people on here, Motherfuck Fox news! Who the f**** watches that lame ass channel anyways? Only hillbilly, racist, no culture, stuck in the 50’s Mormon affiliated m************! All they do is use dumb uncle tom ass Negroes to further spread hate, and division among our people, as well as people who believe in change and progress! They are so got damn hypocritical they think that everyone should be like them an live in a f****** bubble! I wouldn’t be surprised that they are in collaboration with the KKK to destroy Obama’s plan for change! Every time i turn pass their station all they do is hate on Obama, stay throwing their obvious racial hate to the public that they have for Obama! Obstructionist son’s of b******!********
I hate FOX news! I actually despise them in every way! I don’t know if anyone noticed, but when the HAITI earthquake occurred they BARELY reported on it! It was like it didn’t even happen! They were too busy talking criticizing OBAMA! Now, there isn’t a problem with doing that every now and then, however when there is a world crisis, shouldn’t a national news station report, um, THE NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are truly bias! It’s one thing to have a show or two that are against right wing but every single thing on that station is right wing???? Really? They rarely report any news! They either talk about POLITICS or RACY SITUATIONS like the Gaga video! The shouldn’t be called FOX news they should be called POLITICAL and CONSERVATIVE news! Even though CNN may not be perfect, they try hard to be as neutral as possible.
And I agree with Sam, there are more important issues to be concerned about, like the CHILE earthquake!
I understand everyone has their opinions about the video but to report it on FOX news is ridiculous. I mean I would understand “Entertainment tonight” or “E! News” because those are celebrity and entertainment news! And I don’t like the whole kissing a girl or nudity aspect of the video, however, what did people expect from GAGA???? And I disagree that people let Gaga get away with everything because they got all worked up about the Madonna and Britney kiss! People are just so sensitive about things! Just be a parent and don’t let your kids watch it! GeeZ!
****[FOR] right wing, i meant
She trying to hard to be like madonna and not just that she is so overated.
Illmuninati puppet.
ONLY GAY BOYS LISTEN TO LADY GAGA, GAY MEN/BOYS THAT WANT TO HAVE TITS AND A VEGINA, IT’S DAMN SHAMEFUL THAT BOYS/MEN WANT TO BE GAYS. EWWW WHY WOULD ANY ONE WANT A D*** IN THERE ASS, OMG LADY GAGA CAN NEVER BEAT THE LIKES OF RIHANNA BECAUSE RIH’S GOT TO MUCH CLASS TO HAVE A VIDEO. GAY MEN MAKE ME SICK.
I think tv period is just hypocritical. They’re always talking about they trying to educate the young youth in a positive way. I flick threw my tv every single day. I still don’t see any proof of that. All I see is drunk people fighting, making out, and clubbing. Oh and a bunch of hip/hop “DANCE” videos. No real messages…
Where exactly are these other countries with “innocent” teenagers?
P********?
Meh..I’m old enough to have seen all this before back in the 80’s,90’s and 00’s.
What I think these two need to watch is the “Cradle To Enslave” video by Cradle of Filth to put this in perspective as well as reading some history books to realise there’s nothing new under the sun when it comes to controversy.
I like the video but let’s be honest; it’s an homage to other works of art rather than something completely new.
LADY GAGA LACKS CLASS AND IS CRASS
NASTY H** , JUST SEEKING ATTENTION LIKE I SAID.
RIHANNA HAS 6 #1’S THE MOST NUMBER 1S SINCE 2000 WITH RUDE BOY!!!! SUCK IT HATERS!!!!! THAT RIHANNA REIGN JUST WONT LET UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
http://www.islanddefjam.com/artist/news_single.aspx?nid=6436&artistID=7386
HERES THE PROOF !!!!
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, just like this lady is, and if she has the power to throw out the video, then that’s what it is.
Put your feelings aside for gaga, and just look at the message she is sending out in the video..come on now, be for real.
If the video was about the SONG, im pretty sure no one would have anything to say about it. However, there are alot of KIDS that watch this stuff nowadays, and in the back of their mind, I know they are like “Why are two girls kissing?” Be for real. If I had the power to shut something down, I would. Why hate her for telling the truth you all choose to ignore.
People are such hypocrits…all that sexual stuff is for the bedroom, and for a MAN AND WOMAN. Not a woman and a woman, a man and a man…it’s just not right. No one is saying don’t be gay or a les, but do you have to be all up in our faces about it..no..that’s YOUR preference, we don’t have to agree with it…do you…in your bedroom please…not in a music video for goodness sake.
RIHANNA RATED R MOVING UP THE CHARTS ACROSS THE WORLD AND STILL IN TOP 15 IN THE WORLD!!!!!
LMAO!!!!! TO THE HATERS:
BYE BOOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
F*** Fox News, just go back to being biased against president obama and continue pushing your right wing agenda. That is all.
Did this lady even watch the video??? Clearly not because if she did, then she was letting her imagination run wild. Where in the video was it suggested that Gaga cut her d*** off?? She was poking fun at the ridiculous tabloids that were claiming she was a man you idiot. And where and when in that video does it suggest that Gaga and Beyonce are lesbian lovers??? lmao This crazy b**** needs to watch again. I have no idea what video they were watching over at Fox News. Who really watches that channel anyway??? Its full of nothing but racist, homophobic, redneck, hillbillies!!! Get a grip you turds. And if you are going to complain do it fairly. There are countless of other videos and stars that are waaaay more provocative than this video. If you don’t like it, then don’t watch. It shouldn’t be a shocker to anyone, this is Gaga!
Everyone should congratulate Gaga, her video is so famous she’s got these senseless racist homophobic pricks watching it lmao.
OHHH WHO THE F*** CARESSS!!!!
JERRY FALWELL HAS A NEW SUCCESSOR. KONGRATS!!
CONCLUSION: LAME ASS VIDEO WITH 2 LAME ASS SINGERS AND A LAME ASS TV NETWORK WITH 2 LAME ASS MIDDLE AGED CHICS. WHAT’S THE DIFF!!!!
FOX IS THE ONLY STATION WITH VALUES AND MORALS!!!!!! THAT VIDEO WENT WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY TO FAR..ITS OK TO BE DIFFERENT AND OUT THE BOX, BUT SHE WENT TOO FAR WITH THIS ONE. DEVIL WORSHIPPING…YOU ALL WILL SEE IN THE END……..DONT GET CAUGHT UP IN THE EVILNESS!!!THE VIDEO IS RIDICULOUS!!!
JESUS CHRIST IS COMING BACK!!!!! LETS GET IT TOGETHER PEOPLE!!!!!!!!
People who believe that every portion of the bible was actually *wanted* by God doesn’t really know the true meaning of what it is to ‘love’ in general.
It doesn’t matter if you’re gay, bi, straight or in between.
If you love or if you’re attracted to someone, then it isn’t a third party’s responsibility to determine if you’re allowed to have feelings for them or pursue them.
A lot of you need to stop being blinded by hatred.
You claim that its ‘ disgusting’ when the reality of it is that you’re merely disgusting yourselves. ‘JESUS’ probably hasn’t come back yet because he doesn’t like the fact that there’s so much hatred going on in the world.
We’re all capable of loving.
Yet we’re trying to PREVENT people from loving one another, even if its someone of our own gender?
If you’re homophobic, you should be ashamed of yourself.
It isn’t your place to try to determine what people are allowed to be with one another.
You’re the reason why there isn’t any world peace and there’s only destruction.
Madonna never flashed her v***** or committed mass murder in a video. The video is vulgar for the sake of being vulgar. FOX News is spot on.
Sorry but there are no innocent kids these days – really they can pick stuff up from anywhere, and trying to ban them from anything, especially something media and tv related is so stupid its almost impossible if you have a television. The dumbass fox news guys proved this by playing the video themselves.
So the woman was talking about the video, why does she start attacking the pretend relationship Beyoncé and Gaga have in a video? All she does is take a bite out of something that Beyoncé also took a bite out of, and grab hands at the end. But this ends up as “gay/lesbian lovers – no i don’t like it” – whatevever some more b*******. Does that make me gay if I’ve shared a drink with a guy once? In the words of Michael Kyle “Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrm Na”.
Pushing theings too far – wasn’t the Thriller video focused on the innocence of the woman and zombies. And what about some rap/hip-hop videos? I’ve got nothing against them but if you’re going to compare, what about a very recent video How Low by Ludacris, as far as I can see there are a “couple” of women there in underwear jus dancin about.
Sandy says we have to speculate whether she has a male member or not, well actually that is an old rumour which she tried to address in the vdeo “I told you she didn’t have a d***” – she was saying she doesn’t have one. the whole point of the nudity at that exact point was so, even if blurred, you can see there’s nothing there. I think she did that in a very good way, incorporating it into her video. I didn’t see her fie to have a male member or fiegn to having cut it off.
She couldn’t even answer the question at 2.20 “Oh I wouldn’t claim to be an expert on the Madonna videos” – just glancing past the issue because she can’t admit it has happened before and many don’t give a s***.
Does she herself not present a negavtive image with the skinny, make-uped woman on tv, mouthin off about nuttin, and has clearly had work done on her.
3.15 onwards…
3.18 world is filled with sexual predators: what does that have to do with the video
3.23 these girls that are molested and killed: what does that have to do with the video
3.27 “they’ve” done surveys: who is “they” and what does it have to do with the video
3.34 85% of men who do these things have something to do with p***: as Sandy already said it was provocative, when did it turn into full blown p***. i dont so full nudity or any other acts i.e. not p***. I’ve never heard of choriographed p*** either. (•pornography: creative activity (writing or pictures or films etc.) of no literary or artistic value other than to stimulate sexual desire – taken from wordnetweb.princeton.edu/perl/webwn). Themes in here are just that, themes which are symbolic, which have been further divulged into by Lady Gaga herself recently where she explained the video. Plus this is artistic, it’s movie like and has a plot, which folllows on from Paparazzi which continues the plot. the fact this is artistic immediately negates her point about it being p*** by definition. Whether it is opinion of artistry – it is clear this is art whether you like it or not, just like the naked couples (gay and straight) in the MET in New York are art. Sandy didn’t seem to know about that, but she knows about a music video.
3.40 the man next door who is a sexual predator will be watching it: hmmmmm if he’s a sexual predator surely he would be going after real life poeple. if he’s focused on s** why is he watching a music video rather than actual p***. what proof do you have of this, another 85% from some random people who did a survey i expect. Also does she not accuse the next door neighbour of being a sexual predator?????
3.46 this should be outlawed this should be banned: you’re not doing anything about underage s**/drugs/prostitution. The law is bent, you can’t take care of your own country/poeple in terms of health care, education, unemployment. Surely there are other things that could be banned. Ever heard any publicity is good publicity, all she is doing is advertising the video and Gaga. does she not know Gaga is a very smart lady and a savvy business woman who knows what she is doing?
4.45 pornography in some forms is illegal: true and in America the laws change according to state but that would account for child & animal p***, self harm/sadomasicism and general nudity trough a medium available to minors. That means actual nudity as in the bits and bobs, and theres none of that here – despite the lack of clothes there are clothes and everything is covered up.
4.47 because you’re an attourney: surely if the news presenter who is a representative of the law is questioning the video’s content and is leaning towards the video being okay, why should Sandy protest.
5.11 to argue about the content of the video being to explicit and then use the word “r***” is a bit silly imo after having also talked about the so called sexual predators everyone has living next door.
5.34 is it naive for me to think i can shield my children from this: yes, yes it is.
6.00 i had to confront the issue head on if something came on tv i wouldn’t flick it over i would make my son watch it and say “Jeremy watch this honey”: not the best shielding there…
6.28 wasn’t successful
6.36 have to learn to teach kids to make judgements: well why are you speaking for everyone sayin we believe this and we believe that? Why are you shielding people if they should be able to make their own judgements? Why are you decudung things for everyone else?
This is the crap that has come out of 7 minutes of Fox NEWS. This woman is flawed and contradicts herself on so many levels its unbelievable, and i only need to be in school to take her argument apart. Get beack to the real issues
Gaga isn’t doing anything shocking that Madonna Grace Jones, and David Bowie hadn’t already done in the 80’s. We haven’t even mentioned the rock bands who have probably done worse. Fox News needs to get over themselves!
“People are such hypocrits…all that sexual stuff is for the bedroom, and for a MAN AND WOMAN. Not a woman and a woman, a man and a man…it’s just not right. No one is saying don’t be gay or a les, but do you have to be all up in our faces about it..no..that’s YOUR preference, we don’t have to agree with it…do you…in your bedroom please…not in a music video for goodness sake.”
First of all, you contradicted yourself in the next sentence, stupid b****. Sexual stuff is for a man and a woman, but nobody’s saying don’t be gay? GTFO.
Second of all, if seeing two people of the same s** kiss is so scandalous and bad, then I’d like to see ALL videos with sexual themes being banned. If this gets criticized, I’d like to see Trey Songz’s one trick pony ass banned from d*** slapping any of his extras again; I’d like to see LL Cool J’s oiled up self banned from licking his lips all over the screen; I’d like to see Ke$ha’s crackhead self banned from being wasted and falling ever damn place.
If you think this is bad but don’t have a problem with other videos of its ilk, you’re a damn hypocrite and should be ashamed.
@RANDY……..YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY %1000000000 SPOT ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it’s an awesome video f*** off FOX
better yet, try reporting REAL NEWS!!! smh
hey u americans!
go eat ur burgers!!!!! xD
funny how hypocrit some people can be… there’s no place in the world you can find more of this pseudo-behaviour like u find in god-blessed america 😀
finally this world is coming to it’s sneses about Lady Gag-Me. They did the same thing to Christina when she did Dirrty because she was still a fairly new artist and this world feels that you should be more of an established artist before you can do provocative videos like that. Lady gag-me has only been out for 2 years, done stuff more over the top that Christina has done and gotten away with it. So what was so different from what Christina did with Dirrty than what Lady gag-Me has been doing this past year!?
THEY ARE GODESSES !!!!
I LOLE THEM BOTH !!!!
GO TO HELL ALL YOU HOMOPHOVICS !!!!
THEY ARE GODESSES !!!!
I LOVE THEM BOTH !!!!
GO TO HELL ALL YOU HOMOPHOVICS !!!!
LOL, I Find It Funny. People take things too seriously. Damn, it’s just a video. “Its poisoning the minds of children”? Well, parents need to tell their kids not to watch it. my little cousin watches it, there’s nothing wrong with it. Look at how many movies have r*** scenes in them, killing scenes..etc. nobody says anything about that. Why everything has to be G-Rated?
They need to lay off the Lady Gaga talk and lay off the person who works for Fox networks and has terrible grammar. What sense does “Critics Questions If Lady Gaga’s Video Goes Too Far” you can’t have two plurals next to each other in that sentence. I couldn’t get past that to watch the whole thing. Anyway, this is the same network that spews hate for ratings, have a seat.
I totally agree with that other lady. We cannot be blind to what’s happening to our culture, just because we don’t want to offend the idea of what other people call “art”. “Telephone” is not art, it’s trash!!!!! There is something wrong with Lady Gaga, and Beyonce is not too far beyond. But of course, the world hasn’t seen anything yet. It’ll only get worse. That’s why it’s important to know WHO you are and WHOSE you are. Make sure your soul is secure when you leave this world. To do that, accept Jesus Christ’s gift of salvation. Confess your sins to help and ask for forgiveness. Invite God’s son into your heart today, because like I said, it’s only going to get worse…
fox news is wack and they don’t kno what their talkin bout becuz they can watch the exact same thing in movies.
GAGA RULES
I agree 100% Truth. I’m over all that nonsense!
What annoys me the most about all this is when people say that her kissing a woman and there being lesbians in the video makes it too raunchy for TV. Double standards or what! No one ever complains about all the rap videos showing girls shaking their booty or indeed Katy Perry singing about kissing girls. Infact from what I understand, Gaga made a point to SUPPORT the gay community with this video rather than exploit it for titillation like Katy Perry, and even TATU did all those years ago.
As for her poisoning everyone, well violence is all around us these days on TV, computer games, movies…
Reading the majority of these comments…the end is near. That is all.
Sam, you comment on irrelavent s*** all the time. You’re site is mildly entertaining, but you’re hardly a real journalist to throw shade at another. As far as lady gaga’s video goes…it’s a bit much. It just is, whether you like it or not it’s a bit much. It’s always a parent’s responsibility to censor what their children view, that’s truth. Still, I think the public has come a long way from when ppl used to get upset over brittney spears wearing a short skirt on stage. Nowadays, ppl will take whatever you throw at them because there is no standard anymore. It’s like they say, “if you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything.”
FUNNY HOW THESE GUYS ON THIS BLOG CAN LEAVE THERE OPINIONS ON EVERYONE AND THERE MOMMA AND OF COURSE “ONE OTHER ARTIST” ALL THE TIME BUT WHEN SOMEONE OR SOME OTHER NEWS SOURSE LEAVES THERE OPINION THATS NOT AGREEING TO THERES ITS SOOO WRONG AND “WHATEVER” SMH….
Lady GaGa is so amazing, she looks very hot and s***!!!
I love her voice and the way she dance on the scene. Very talented girl!
Nicky….LET’S GET REAL… I like rihanna as well but gaga has nearly just as many #1’s in a fraction of the time… And tell me where ‘The Fame’ AND ‘The Fame Monster’ is on the charts in relation to ‘Rated R’???
Personally, I think that Fox News is blowing this out of proportion- AGAIN.
Okay, so Lady GaGa’s video is inappropriate and a bit risque, but this totally represents Freedom of Speech. It’s Lady GaGa’s way of expressing her musical talent, and we shouldn’t limit her from doing it.
It’s the parents’ and guardians’ fault for exposing their kids to this type of stuff, and Lady GaGa should not be held responsible. She probably did not intend for little kids to be influenced by or to even watch the video. Parents can absolutely prevent their kids from any criteria and material they don’t want their kids to see, and should not blame the publisher/creator for their bad parenting.
I do agree this video should not be shown on television, because television is less limited than the Internet. This video should remain on Youtube and her website only.
What bothers me about Fox is that they have their own opinion and stick to it, instead of being objective and let the public express their individual perspectives. Fox News doesn’t show both sides of the story, and seem to only report things they have problems with. On their website, it says “Fox News: Balanced and Fair”. This is an absolute LIE. Fox needs to stop bitching about their complaints and let the public decide for once. I actually think Fox is accountable for all the Obama haters.
NEWFLASH-that was real talk because if Beyonce did s*** like this there would be a campaign built to destroy her career. Only a white artist can do an award show with all the blood and death. Nobody said nothing to GaGa so she’s been upping the anti every time out. You have to admire her nerve but damn she get’s away with doing some crazy s*** that a minority artist would never get away with.
GETMELOLLY UK – I agree with you 100%
A few years ago I would have been whinging about this report also, but I have grown up and I am past that rebellious stage where things pushed further = cool.
I work with children everyday that have seen more and know more at the ages of 6 or 7 than I did at the age of 16! The media is ripping the innocence away from children everyday and half of it is the parents fault also.
In a life span the child section is by far the shortest period and it’s getting shorter and shorter. Kids at age 6 & 7 are almost mini adults walking around. In the span of just over a decade a lot of peoples morals have gone out of the window. I am 29 and when I was growing up it was rare for movies on past 8:30pm to have swear words. These days there is plenty of swearing well before 8:30pm.
These days it’s all about s** appeal… what they forget is that their music and videos and such are adored by children as young as 5.
We have music and dance time for the children and the songs and dance moves the 5 year olds try to pull off is just vulgar. They are just coping what they see on the music clips. But the 7 – 12 year olds know exactly what it’s all about and have no issue discussing it out in the open.
Video games like Grand theft auto (which this age group should not be playing, but of course do) has made these kids turn feral. I have kids everyday talking about killing people and saying they want the go to the army or be a police officer so they can have a gun and use it. It’s damn scary… because this is just what the kids are like these days. I’d hate to think they might wanna poison everyone now cause Lady gaga did it.
So bringing it back to topic… does this clip go too far… Yes it does.
The lyrics are about being in a club dancing and not wanting to take a call from some annoying guy. So make a clip about that, at least the majority of people can relate to that, even the younger ones… but all this dancing in next to nothing, poisoning people and dancing around their dead bodies is a bit much and thats just a small part of the 9 min clip.
Does this mean I hate Lady Gaga… No but I just worry that if this is where she is at now, how the f*uck is she going to top the outrageousness of this without going further into filth and general immoral behaviour.
sorry for the essay, just gets on my nerve when It seems I am the only one who is trying to encourage kids to be kids for a while, while the kids I look after parents obviously expose them to this stuff and don’t give a s*** about the consequences for them and their right to be a child. At the very least this stuff should be on after 9pm… and don’t even start me on those late night p*** ads… I had a 5 year old tell me she wants to be a pole dancer…WTF!!!
Never did like FOX News.
@Q-tis you’re sure right about that.
The video actually premiered on MTV.
That lady has such a bad bad point too.
This has nothing to do with Fox News so stop bashing the most productive and best news outlet in the United States. Get your facts straight. This has to do with morals and disgusting people that YOU morons like to promote. You’re probably all s** offender and love to watch this disgusting, perverted stuff. It has nothing to do with closed mindedness, only on the part of you perverts. Get some class and some morals. If you “appreciate” this trash, then you are sick and need help!
Are these b****** serious. People are dying, wars are going on, and their fueling more attention, and “fake” news might I add quoting conspiracy theorist and Zeitgeist, toward the person they claim to not want on their tvs, making their children want to watch it if they haven’t seen it yet. How stupid can you be? And as far as the lady gaga beyonce lesbian theme, b**** it was Thelma & Louise all over again, love it and leave. Bye b**** and good evening!!!!
TRUTHWILLPREVAIL WTF ARE U SERIOUS YEA GAYS KEEP IT IN THE BEDROOM DONT PUT IT ALL OUT DER CUZ ITS DISGUSTING AND OFFENSIVE TO YOU F outta here wit that you know how it hurts me that i cant even hold my partners hand in public because of wack jobs like u u know how id hate on str8 couples just simply giving eachotha a kiss on the lips hello or goodbye all i want to do its be appropriately affectionate with the person i love and not be judged you act as if gay ppl are gonna start having full on s** in the streets! im supposed to see my man and just give him a pound or shake hands and then kiss him once we get into the apt yea you embrace equality my ass maybe u would like segregation back or slavery oooo ppl of color scare me they shouldn’t go in the pool with us? thats the kinda stuff u support OOOO the jews are rich and too powerful lets kill them all thats the stuff u into oh the gays have the same s** organs and want to love each other throw them behind closed doors. the only reason a child will be like WTF y are 2 men kissing or 2 women kissing is cuz YOU raised them telling them it was wrong. A child of gay parents wouldn’t give a damn if they saw gays kissing or str8 ppl kissing cuz thier parents didnt put limits on love for them they didnt say one was wrong and one was right. but it dont make no sense telling u s*** cuz you already have your ways and unfortunately u will continue to foster that type of thinking a promoting it what sense dose having tolerance mean if you will not accept seeing it you can tolerate the fact that it exists but you will not tolerate seeing it us gays had to tolerate seeing your ass kiss the “right s**” i cant even talk bout ur stupid ass anymore…….. any way video is what eva isnt really original just trying to cost on the s** appeal thing but can you really blame them? here we eat s** up in this country and ppl always wanna out do what has been done in the past so they shine for the moment i teach s** and gender roles and have studied sexuality in the media for a while its true their is alot out their but parents and teachers need to really step up and talk with their kids but s** is in everything even in things that arent look at as sexual, look at the reporter seriously does the average journalist look so pretty and perfect as the ones on the news? why is it that most women are younger then the men on the news casts women have to really fight to get to the top and have to conform even if they dont want too at least a little bit ah this is too much to go into on this site take classes on sexuality media gender and society if you really wanna be enlightened on this stuff. love u gaga and your support for a*** fund raising and gay rights but gays already have to deal with the negative image of being over sexual altho you dont see commercials for boys gone wild splattered all over tv lol damn horny str8 ppl who love to see girls drunk acting like fools at night dont add to it altho by throwing in the gay themes you do display that thier are gay ppl out their and thier sexuality can be put on tv as hetero sexuality is always displayed but you are reinforcing the hetero male fantasy of lesbianism that too fem girls are together when in most cases fem fem relationships are quite rare but some men fantasize about having more then one woman at a time so in fact you arent really helping the gays out as much as you think
I think its amazing she looks very ordinary without makeup. She is of course still gorgeous.
Timeless beauty.
I really enjoyed this video and I love Lady Gaga. I think whatever Fox is trying to say is absolutely bizarre and crazy. However, I do agree that we shouldn’t hide things from our kids. I would most definitely watch this video with my kids, then talk with them about it. I think that parents should do more to stimulate intellectual conversations with their kids.
HOW CAN U GO TO FAR WHEN IT IS ART? A GENUINE SOCIAL COMMENTARY ON AMERICA. GAGA AND HER HAUS HAVE CREATED A MASTERPEICE.
JUZ,
YOU HAVE AN EXTREMELY LIMITED UNDERSTANDING OF CREATIVE INDEPENDENCE. IT IS NOBODY’S RIGHT TO LIMIT AND INDIVIDUAL’S ABILITY TO EXPRESS THEMSELVES. YOU COMPLAIN ABOUT CHILDREN COPYING DANCE MOVES THAT ARE “VULGAR” SO DO YOU HONSETLY EXPECT A TRUE ARTIST LIKE LADY GAGA TO CHANGE HER HONEST INTERPRETATIONS FOR YOU, AND PEOPLE LIKE YOU WHO DO NOT UNDERSTAND ART. HER VIDEO IS NOT MERELY A VISUAL MADE TO ACCOMPANY HER SONG BUT A DOCUMENTATIOPN OF EVENTS, AS WELL AS A SOCIAL COMMENTARY. THE FACT THEY KILL PEOPLE IN THE DINER IS ESSESNTIAL TO THE MESSAGE GAGA SEEKS TO CONVEY. IT SPEAK OF INTERNAL TERRORISM, AMERICANS KILLING AMERICANS. IT IS A HONEST DEPICTION OF HOW GAGA SEES HER SOCIAL LANDSCAPE. IT IS NOT THE ARTISTS JOB TO SHY AWAY FROM TRUTHS REGARDLESS OF CONSEQUENCES, BUT TO BE HONEST AND CONVEY REALITY, THROUGH EXPRESSIVE CREATIVE MEANS. HER VUDEO IS NOT INAPROPRIATE, IT IS MERELY HONEST. PERHAPS STYLISED AND EXAGERATED BUT IF YOU TAKE SUCH A STRONG OPPOSITION TO IT. DONT WATCH IT, DONT COMMENT ON IT, AND DONT LET YOUR CHILDREN WATCH IT. BUT SHAME ON YOU FOR NOT ALLOWING THEM EXPOSURE TO CREATIVITY AND ART, FOR IT APPEARS THEY WILL END UP LIKE YOU, A REMOVED, COLD, CLINICAL DICTATOR.
she’s just jealous. she knows she likes women 😉
Fox is normally pretty good; however, I love the new GaGa video. Ive got your back GaGa!!!
gaga, beautiful.
