Her dark phase was definitely during her ArtPop era when she replaced half of the team that made her a big name on The Fame and Born This Way Some fans believe she received a lot of cyberbullying and pressure during the BTW phase about being a "Madonna" rip-off. Her Joanna was good I'll give her that not the Gaga people wanted but it at least gave the world a chance to see a more personal Stefanie side to her and she ended starring in Ryan Murphy's movie A Star Is Born. Now she's back and better than ever with Chromatic giving us color and powerful vibrant Gaga at the same time!
