ale co znaczy prawdziwe, cała Gaga to przecież poza i kreacja.
jeśli pytasz czy myśle, że wierzy w to co robi, to tak, ale jak wiadomo to tylko część tej machiny i tego też jestem świadoma, ale miło jak za komercyjnością stoi jakieś przesłanie.
zarabia na środowisku homoseksualnym, ale to symbioza, bo ono jakoś nie ma nic przeciwko. <przynajmniej większość>

I am cool with people not liking it. I am bothered by the need to tear down something so uplifting. The lyrics to Born This Way are nothing new. They're uplifting, feel-good, empowering. Similar words have been spoken by Martin Luther King, Jr., Harvey Milk, Oprah Winfrey. What's she's saying is not new. But the generation she's speaking them to, singing them to, is new. Let's not forget that.
In the last 12 months we've seen numerous gay kids across the country kill themselves. We've witnessed some major civil rights setbacks and we've also won a few battles (like DADT repeal). We as gay people are far from full equality, but we can also see it in sight. Gay youth see the struggle and the hope more clearly then when I was in high school. I returned to my alma mater this year to speak to the school's gay/straight alliance. It was an emotional trip and as a result I've become friends with most of those kids. I have seen their worlds. I have heard their stories. And, unsurprisingly, they're all Lady Gaga fans. She's singing to them. She's telling them that they're born this way.
Go ahead and say she copied from Madonna. Say it's a generic dance record. Say she's over. Go ahead, tear her apart. Rip her down. But think about it: Think of the good she's doing, think of the kids she's empowering -- the ones she's giving hope to, the ones who dream of a better life. Think of them when you criticize. When you dismiss.
It's easy to be mean. It's also a trap and a cycle. I find it to be wasted energy and wasted emotion. Rather than using that acidic tongue on someone on our side, why not turn it on those fighting against our rights, not for them. Someone on the other team. Someone deserving of criticism.
w skrócie nie zapominajmy w tym krytykowaniu Gagi ile robi dobrego, że młodzi ludzie potrzebują idola, który mówi o pewności siebie, równości, indywidualności, braku wstydu przez to kim się jest.
kiedyś robili to inni, teraz taką wpływową ikoną jest właśnie ona.
i pytanie "w jakim kierunku ona zmierza?". Nie kupuję tego. Teledysk paskudny, a piosenka typowa masówka do radia na jeden sezon, żadnych kamieni milowych w historii muzyki... No cóż...
