Sorry it may not be affiliated with Atheism but from my experience there are people that I have seen on list-serves who have the nerve to put Lady Gaga ahead of everything else. What makes her more relevant than anything else, how can she help society progress? These a questions to ask many of these cult-followers luckily none of them frequent here.

I really like her and I enjoy her music.

I actually think most of the stage act and the 'brand' is due to shyness more than, 'I'm gonna make a tonne of money from this stuff!' (though she does do that) - she seems like a little kid playing make-believe and dress up, but with adult themes :lol:

She's using her fame to spread awareness about LGBTQ rights, so that's something.

There are definitely people that have used there fame to accomplish more. Walt Disney helped with the American Space Program. Bono fought to prevent third world countries from having the average life-expectancy in their teens because they inherited dieseases that prevented them from getting past their 18th birthday. Lady Gaga can't really be taken seriously especially when she wears meat but claims to be a vegetarian, though also encourages abstinence and then there's rumors about her being affiliated with orgy's shes a hypocrite. I know that political views are different than lifestyle but I can't take her seriously when she fails on two vital issues.

The woman behind the "Lady Gaga" image is definately real; it is the image that is a put-on.

No one would pay attention to her if she were only known by her real name - Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta.

What's the story with her dad, again? I could have sworn that he was a person of some affluence in NYC. All I can find now is about her grandfather. Her wiki page has changed a bit over the years since her fame has grown.

Her parents are in telecommunications/Internet.

Ladyhawke is an aspie.

Since the term "shock rock" is used to describe the performance style of hard rock/heavy metal artists such as Alice Cooper and Marilyn Manson (who I think are similar because they are both heavy metal singers, they are both men who use a woman's stage name, and their stage names are also the names of the respective bands they perform with), Lady Gaga should be referred to as "shock pop" because even though her music is pretty normal (for some reason I actually don't hate it as much as the music of many other modern pop musicians), her stage performances are CRAZY!! !! and it always seems to be a matter of which shock value act she's gonna pull next.

I don't get all this hate.

SO what if she is an attention seeker? Half the people on WP are attention seekers too. She is the closest thing to an Idol I have in this world which is saying something.

So you don't like her music? Who cares. I don't like half the stuff on the charts. I see her as a clever song writer, and an excellent singer and performer. Plus she doesn't look like the generic "hot" singer.
