- real, shes very real, regardless of weaher you like her or not, shes a musician,singer and
SONGWRITER,all of the people shes supposedly similar are nothing alike apart from the
concept of being weird which is very old. even the mostsimilar artists are nothing like her musically which is the important thing.
- i cant stand the attention whore
- Omg gaga created to make money xx OMG NO, i think its easy to attack someone especially if your career has ended,.GAGA is more than a L.A star, she is an institution, thee biggest gay icon of the 21st century and has had the most dominant impact upon fashion.
How could a fake creation achieve so much in such a small amount of time and have such a devoted fanbase xx GAGA THE GAYS LOVE YOU X
- Influenced, fair enough. The insults underneath the photos is completely unnecessary.
- VERY MUCH REAL....SHE IS A SPECTACULAR AMAZING SINGER LIVE. IT'S ONLY BECAUSE OF HER STAND-OUT STYLE WHY PEOPLE THINK SHE'S FAKE....DO PEOPLE NEVER LISTEN TO THE VOCALS AT THE BASE OF THE MADNESS? They are the fake only influenced by the media that can't see the great gaga beneath the surface!
