Dear Miss Germanotta,
I guess, after looking at this for a few years now, it’s time I’m addressing a letter to you, expressing my opinion about your behavior…
Let’s say it this way:
I have heard you were a great singer and your first song ruled the charts for a while. I listened – and found nothing special in neither the song, nor the voice. I continued listening to more of your music, and the longer I did, the more I got bored.
I don’t say it’s bad – but I don’t say it’s good either… To me it’s just the same kind of sound young women do produce “en masse” as the French say, to gain attention, at least for a while.
You might say, that you’re a star and on top of business for quite a few years now. And I’m going to laugh. “Sooooooo?” Honestly, Miss Germanotta… we both know, that you topping the charts isn’t for your excellent music or voice… it’s because all young people admire you for your kind of outrageous impudence in many kind of ways…
Let’s get started with your copying… come on! Don’t say you never copy! Sheeeesh, girl… there’s plenty of proof: You’ve copied like – everyone!! You aren’t yourself; you are nothing than a cheap copy of other women’s hard work and originality!
Madonna, Grace Jones, Christina Aguilera, Gwen Stefani, Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, Kylie Minogue and many more! Don’t you think that’s kind of “cheap”?
What irritates me even more than your copy/paste personality and mediocre voice is your non-existing fashion sense and your bold insolence to stand into the world of stars , celebrities and stylists and claim to be “an artist with fashion sense, style and good taste”…
Are you calling an artist “knowing how to look like someone else”? Are you calling your music an act of art? Are you calling artistic what you wear??
Let me tell you my opinion, Miss Germanotta.
I personally think, your music is hardly worth mentioning and you turned out to be famous for calling yourself “Gaga” – no matter how much you claim this to be a tribute to the old “Queen”-Song… in good old Germany calling someone “gaga” means, that person’s a completely dumb, crazy, out of bond-freak.
You’re calling yourself “Gaga” – do I need to say more??
Your self-declared sense and style is literally non-existent in my opinion… if you don’t believe it, let me show you what I mean.
I think best way to do this is to compare:
2009 MTV Video Music Awards: Best dressed shinging, sparkling beautiful elegant Taylor Swift – and in comparison: Lady Gaga, to me personally looking like the daughter of the bird flu and the trash bag….
2010 Brit Awards. Gorgeous Alexandra Burke shining in a red bow gown, charming and glowing… and in comparison: Lady Gaga, in my opinion looking like a lampshade in the boudoir of a french castle concubine…
2010 MTV Video Music Awards: Beautiful Selena Gomez in a silver robe, absolutely stunning! – And in comparison, in my opinion the freakin’ worst taste EVER, Lady Gaga – in MEAT:
(And believe me, Miss Germanotta, no matter what kind of statement you had in mind, this is to me the absolutely most disgusting thing I’ve seen in a long time…)
Okay… I guess, after showing you what I mean, you might want to tell me that something like this is too normal for you and that you’re not normal at all.
Let me tell you, Miss Germanotta: I couldn’t agree more. In my opinion you’re actually so abnormal, where I come from, you’d be to visit in a psychiatric clinic.
I’m not really sure whether to laugh about you, or to regret you… I learnt less Beneficiaries are to be regretted… and I seriously think you belong to the less favored people… I figure, when God distributed the brains, you were eating meat – and when he handed out style and taste you probably were browsing magazines… HAHA…
Just do us all a favor, Miss Germanotta. Get either “normal” with some sense for behavior, manners and fashion and start being an artist for your music – or just retire… you’d really do us most of us a favor.
Have a nice retirement.
R. Y.

Ranni, while I personally don’t have a problem with Lady Gaga, I just wanted to let you know that I support your blog and respect your opinion.
*chuckle*
That’s okay Linneann. Not everyone shares my opinion. It’s fine with me! I really appreciate your comment, no matter whether or not you agree with me on something. I do thank you for repsecting my opinion and supporting my blog.
You’re greatly appreciated and so are your comments!!
I’ll always support you, Raani, unless you write a letter like that to Linneann. LOL!!!
Holy smokes Linneann! You shocked me! When I read your reply I caught myself staring to the screen with my mouth hanging open before bursting out laughing!
You know, there’s so much I like about you, the way you act and write and your work, the thought of a letter to you wouldn’t even occur! But for a tiny moment I was speechless, and believe me: that doesn’t happen often. LOL
Ooohhh, LOL!!!!!!! I’m laughing so hard!
So am I. And still giggling!
I like her and what she supports her anti bullying campaign is great. But yes you are RIGHT on a LOT OF FACTORS. I can understand your points totally. It is nice to have blogs it allows us our freedom of speech to express each other. And among us we can always agree to disagree. That is what is great about the ladies here. Thanks for letting me be a part of this. Lori
Thank you very much Lori! For stepping by, your comment and your opinion which is greatly appreciated!
We all know that sometimes people disagree. And that’s good, period! I do welcome any comment, even if the person doesn’t share my opinion. As long as it’s written in a great and polite manner, there’s nothing wrong and permits me to still answer nicely and properly.
Thank you!
I wonder why she feels the need to dress this way? I saw her on a documentary once with her mother who looked so sane, and normal. I suppose she does this for massive attention. Sort of sad.
You are very brave to speak to these celebrities, Raani, as you share your thoughts about them. I respect your opinion. I don’t know enough about many of them. I don’t watch enough television, i suppose.
I’m learning so much from reading your blogs, however.
I’ll stop by again.
Cherrye
Hello Cherrye,
Thank you very much for your comment. I’m glad those blog posts are doing something good. LOL
I personally think Miss Germanotta is suffering from a massive attention deficit. I cannot explain myself differently why she would do this.
She has been caught lying too, saying she had to go and dance in a strip club she was so poor and had nobody to support her.
Of course magazines found out she’s coming from a quite good situated background and her parents supported her all the time…
That’s why I personally think she’s got some missing candles in her candelabra…. but I figure by now half the world knows this anyway. LOL
Thanks for your opinion and for stopping by.
Raani, I think you should get guard dogs and double bolts for your doors lol .And maybe take out an insurance policy–you can name me beneficiary for the warning lol. Lady Gaga is like Madonna and BritneySpears and all the rest who would never had made it if they didn’t makes themselves outrageous. They are examples of what it means to be a free society–we must accept the good with the ridiculous. I think this was your most harsh comment so far. What a column you could have!!
Hugs, Micki
LOL Micki, you crack me up. Honestly… I doubt I need guard dogs as long as I haven’t gotten any death threats. ROFL
(Besides: I got Jake… *grin*)
Don’t worry about my insurance policy… that’s all set… one never knows, right? The revenge might come without a warning.
As for the harsh comment: I’m not exactly sure you’re right… if you remember the very first one which I wrote to Marilyn Manson? I’m afraid that was much worse – and I’m still alive. LOL
Thanks for stepping by and commenting!
Ouch – smackdown. That was brutal.
I am not a fan of hers either.
I’m glad to hear that…
But brutal? I don’t know… honestly… I censored it TWICE before I published it. LOL
Wow, I am curious about the first version.
*chuckle* – Uhm…. just let’s say: I could have gotten arrested for the first version. LOL
Funny.
Great to see someone drawing our attention to the emperor and his new clothes. No-one ever says what an incredible spectacle she is and how awful the so-called music is – so you’ve made me feel that I’m not as old and out of date as I thought. Thank you for the expose. but sadly attention seeking is obviously a very lucrative career choice.
You’re neither out of date nor old!
Just people do have different tastes, that’s all.
Under certain circumstances I would say that’s good… but not in Miss Germanottas case… *sigh* – I can’t help myself, but I still personally think she should go and see a shrink… but however… you’re definitely right: it’s kind of sad she makes so much money with nearly nothing…
Hi,
I agree that Lady Gaga is way out of my class. I haven’t really listened to her sing, because I simply haven’t had the time. Because I sing myself, I tend to sway away from evaluating others voices, out of respect for the trade. So, I cannot judge whether she can sing or not, but looking at the pictures you posted, I definitely would like to see her get a new tailor or seamstress. It seems like she is living out some type of nightmare, and I don’t mean that sarcastically. I don’t know what happened to her in her childhood, but it definitely seems like she needs help.
Thank you for pointing her out more clearly to me, Raani. I have begun to look at your star articles as the blog that keeps me informed on what is going on in the musical and theatrical world.
Ciao,
Patricia
Hi Patricia,
Thank you very much for your comment. I’m glad those letters are doing SOMETHING useful. LOL
Oh well… you know, Lady Gaga’s music is soooo not my taste… I personally don’t think she’s got a voice… I heard from really good singers that she doesn’t… but of course… it’s all a matter of taste.
As for her “fashion”… I’m afraid I think she’s a disaster… but that doesn’t have anything to do with her childhood. It seems she grew up quite normal.
I only guess she doesn’t have all the necessary indicators on her watch…
Thanks again for stopping by and commenting!!!
Hugs
Raani
Hi Raani,
Ahh, Lady Gaga a female version of Elton John. The meat dress turned me off, I like meat. I must say though she does have a quirky sense of humour. I guess she needs it when she sees her photos in the magazines. The circus sideshow hasn’t left us, the bearded, tattooed lady and smallest man in the world has bowed out. To be replace by today’s ‘entertainers.’
Another biting look at those who think they are special.
Cheers
Laurie.
Hmm, now where did I leave my tights and feather boa?
Thank you so much Laurie for your comment. It is so valuable to me!! You’re great – and I really love your sense of humor.
Your last sentence of course made me burst out laughing!!
Thanks a lot! For everything – in particular making me laugh!!
The best line of the entire post: …looking like a lampshade in the boudoir of a french castle concubine… You are totally out of control, Raani! LOVE IT!!!!
*chuckle* Thank you Sharla! I take this as a big compliment. I’m happy you like it!
Always complimentary, my friend! Your postings bring on the smiles and laughter:>)
I do love your blog, regardless of my opinion, you just make me smile! I’d subscribed a while ago, but just did it again so your blogs end up in my email. That way I can’t miss it!!
Thank you so much! Iäm subscribed to yours too! I appreciate your comments and your efforts and time to read my blog even though you might not always share my opinion. That’s fine.
I still appreciate all your comments!!!
Thank you!
