THE SHOT – Just when you thought we’d laid her penis scandal to rest, Lady Gaga showed off her glass disco sticks on this week’s American Idol. The producers cleverly showed her mostly from the waist down and then put the show’s logo near her heels in any shots of her sitting down. If you wanna sport your own pair of cocky heels, just shell out $4,500 at the London art fashion house Void of Course.

How does one even walk in those?

ever the adroit semiotician she seems to be saying that left to itself her shaky talent would fall on it’s arse without support from her dickheads.
i kid… by law i’m required to LOOOOVE her; and not just simply welcome her helpful message without first also suspending my critical faculties.
*oh gawd i’m in trouble now face*

I love it!

Lady Gaga has overdone the publicity stunts in my view. She needs somebody to take control of her and keep her indulgences in check. For starters, she needs to stay away from meth-head gays who jump up and down in excitement when they hear an auto-tuned dance song.

“Kicking someone’s ass” now has a whole new meaning.

@jason: And you have overdone your “I’m better than everyone because I’m gay” thing.

Interesting that they blocked it on TV. I wonder how many kids under age 10 would even have noticed or figured it out anyway.
And…autotune? I don’t think her last few hits had any autotune. At least, I didn’t hear it. Just her natural vocal talent!

Lady Gaga has a true, natural amazing singing voice.
Good for her.

—My Take on It
Lady Gaga is the Madonna of the second half of the 1st decade of the 21st century. I like her music. So what if she is larger-than-life, everyone is a freak show in some way or another; some people are just more open and honest about it. For some people it’s their shtick and they makes lots of money pushing the envelope. Art is meant to provoke; not just to exist as a non-threatening Hallmark Card symbol of banality.
A bit of advice to the nervous nellies; the pseudo-prudes, and the assholier-than-thou cabals — “Don’t like, don’t look.”
It’s really that simple.

I don’t think she is that great– which is just proof that I am getting old, not proof about her at all.
