Gaga is just another mass produced pop artist. Nothing she's doing is that thought provoking or revolutionary. Most intellectuals and avid music lovers HATE her music with a passion. Sure she can sing and write songs but nothing she's produced is at the height of artistic integrity. Her IMAGE drives her music (much like Madonna) and that makes her less respectable. Stefani Germanotta was a seemingly normal brunette who performed in night clubs. Lady Gaga is a caricature. A fake creation propped up by the music industry. No substance, no sincerity. She didn't need the ugly Halloween costumes and drag queen makeup before. Clearly her talent wasn't enough. She needed an extreme persona to sell records and that's not impressive.
