Lady Gaga: “Every ‘Joanne’ Video Will Be A Continuation”

Published: Thursday 15th Dec 2016 by Sam

Lady Gaga fans are all sorts of split over the singer’s latest video ‘Million Reasons.’

Unveiled yesterday, some saluted the clip was saluted for its simplicity, while most slammed it for being disappointing. Especially given the star’s history as a visual artist.

Whatever side of the fence one sits on, it appears ‘Reasons’ and predecessor ‘Perfect Illusion’ are puzzle pieces of a bigger picture.

Full story below…

Speaking on Snapchat, the 30-year-old told fans:

“This video picks up right where the Perfect Illusion video left off…and..each (‘Joanne’) video after will do the same”

Sigh.

For her sake, whatever she’s serving up next time needs to slay hard enough to make us forget the clips she’s released so far this era.

To see a visual artist effectively divorce herself from her core point of appeal is as jarring as it is sad.

Sure ‘Joanne’ is an opinion-splitter, but that’s almost inconsequential in today’s age. People want to be excited be what they “see” just as much if not more than what they hear.

It’s clear Gaga is trying (and hasn’t yet succeeded) to strike the balance between the expectations born out of past eccentricities and her present air  of refined.

Hopefully, she finds that sweet spot sooner rather than later.

‘Dancin’ In Circles’ next, please. But we’ll take ‘A-YO’ if need be.

Your thoughts?

    I really don’t see what’s wrong with either videos. I personally enjoyed Reasons.

      That grape juice doesn’t report the public s opinions they report there own

      • Kwinzy December 15, 2016

    “‘Dancin’ In Circles’ next, please. But we’ll take ‘A-YO’ if need be.” SAY IT AGAIN! DIC needs to be the next single. Everything else in this post I disagree with haha

  3. Surprise..(DEC 2013) December 15, 2016

    She just needs to end this era and start all over again…or just go tour, which i think she will announce after the superbowl. THE VIDEO FOR MILLION MILLON REASONS WAS LIKE A COPE AND PASTE OF DIFF IMAGES….THE SONG ITSELF IS VERY CLOSE TO BEING BORING AND THE VIDEO DOES NOT HELP EITHER. TALENTED GIRL, BUT SOMETHING SEEMS OFF.

      Tbh .. The video for MR looked like she recycled the Apple Music ad and promo photoshoots.

    • Rihboy December 15, 2016

      Much more toned down. I’m always here for the Judas g.uy. Type visuals from her. But I guess someone said let’s be low key for a while or something .

  4. FASHION_ICON ~ Anti&Lemonade December 15, 2016

    I find the video cute

  5. XYZ December 15, 2016

    Of what? I don’t see much of a story in either of both videos

  6. Jake December 15, 2016

    Go continue the Telephone video biiiitch . This album except 4-5 songs is wack in general .

    • GaGa’s Little Lamb December 15, 2016

      Right!! When ever I listen I startfrom Ayo and stop after Sinners Prayer

  7. GaGa’s Little Lamb December 15, 2016

    Honestly I’m not enjoying this era so far.
    Everything except the live performances this era has been so underwhelming.
    She should just re-release Joanne with new songs and visuals that fit each song.
    At this point I doubt I’ll even go see her when she tours

  8. S****** Blonde December 15, 2016

    I’m the only one who thinks that a type of G.U.Y. video is not for this era, they keep asking for a visual masterpiece but that just won’t fit with any song on the album.

    • JOHNVIDAL December 15, 2016

      Exactly! I don´t know what the hell is what they don´t get. It´s not like we haven´t seen these guys at TGJ giving tremendously wrong advice again and again though 🙂

    • Prince Machiavel December 15, 2016

      No Paul you’re not the only one ?. Like Meme said, they will turn gray waiting for that!!! She’ll do as she please this time regardless people feeling and i’m here for it.?

  9. Shakira Stan December 15, 2016

    Continuation of her flops….she did too much too soon.
    Wore a meat dress, got vommited on, say she saw Lucifer and then says she was r****.
    I don’t even like Beyonce but artiste like Beyonce etc stay relevant because they maintain an aura of mystique… People are interested when you do not shade it all off. Gaga stripped herself of every ounce of dignity and mystique and now it has backfired… No one is interested because they have seen it all, she has talents ,she might recover some of her career but it will never be like before.

  10. RhiRocks December 15, 2016

    I was so disappointed with M.R video I love that song but the vid was just terrible , first the acting so really bad good luck to her for star is born 2nd I just didn’t get it it made no sense . Anyway I’m still waiting for telephone part 2 but that petty bish Beyoncé won’t Collaborate with her now cos bey is on top and gaga is just gaga

  11. December 15, 2016

    Million reasons video was a let down I’m totally disappointed . She should just let it go and come harder cuz the boredom is real..

  12. Beyonceitis December 15, 2016

    So true, one day you’re at the top and the next day you are a nobody. Her biggest fail, is not being able to fool the general public, she wants us to forget all her stunts and gimmicks and pretend she is Adele, but it’s so insincere and phony.

  13. Starxavi December 15, 2016

    Give me A-Yo or John Wayne….her performances of both of those songs on the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show slayed me.

  14. Mase December 15, 2016

    Her lives performances have been great this era. She’s done the album justice. -as far as the videos; i agree. They haven’t been the blockbusters we expect from her and that’s what the main fans want.

  15. Mase December 15, 2016

    For all you trolls saying she needs to end the era, IT JUST STARTED! And she still has bangers such as Dancin In Circles , A-YO and John Wayne so she still could go the F*** off

  16. Casual December 15, 2016

    I haven’t watched the Million Reasons video yet. Maybe I’ll find a phuq. MR isn’t a bad song, but she’s not at a point in her career where she can make a hit out of a run of the mill ballad. With her new stripped down image, which differentiates her from her former image but not from the pack, she needs undeniable smashes.

  17. Fancy BISH December 15, 2016

    Lemonade gave us a breathtaking view of a very REAL and honest Beyonce, with symbolism and mysticism…Jonas Akerlund helped direct it…he directed Telephone and Paparazzi…isn’t that what Joanne is trying (so hard) to do for Gaga? Isn’t she trying to be real? Well, real doesn’t have to be bland, boo boo…she wrote Angel Down about Trayvon Martin…let’s see THAT visual…BOOMKACK Gaga would have sashayed right through that controversy…but NO, Joanne would rather be Adele now…I remember 21 slaying alongside a girl morphed into a motorcycle on the album cover…now, 25 is snatching Joanne’s tired, overused pink hat…

  18. JOHNVIDAL December 15, 2016

    The few comments always repeating the era is done are truly desperate. Not when Million Reasons keep visiting the top10 on itunes despite not being big on radio and not when teh album has sold as much as supposed hits like “Anti” 🙂 And especially NOT when Superbowl is not far away. It´s killing these guys that despite the change of genre and the backlash from pop fans (who knows why) she still didn´t sell less than 100k copies first week like they wished and predicted (sold double) and that two months later the era is alive, she keeps being booked cause she has talent and she didn´t give up (as some others kind of did after being the victim of big backlash). Talent prevailed.

      You wish!
      This era is done and dusted….All you breath and thinks is RIHANNA
