Lady GaGa Says She's All Women! Question Is... Who Cares? - Page 3
Let's not forget Dee Snyder in Twisted Sister, ok... never mind, we can forget that one.
(Just have to mention, and way off topic, but I think Christina Aguilera definitely stole Dee's look when she did the video for Moulin Rouge).
And what about Boy George? He started out rather tame with Culture Club (well sort of) and then showed up in an airport one day dressed like a Geisha girl, and got more outrageous from there. But nobody can deny that the man possessed decent set of pipes on him. We won't get into where he is today.
Back to Madonna... one of the biggest shock divas. (who is sadly still trying to shock people today, you can stop now)
She started a whole fashion trend with her pointy bustiers, rosaries, rubber O ring bracelets, and boy toy belt buckles.
Who can forget her humping a wedding veil and rolling around on the floor, when she performed Like A Virgin for the 1984 MTV music awards? Looking back on Madonna's perfomance in that video, it wasn't a very good one, but people were so wrapped up in the lyrics of the song and what she was doing on stage, that few people noticed the bad notes she hit. Rr the fact she was fluffing up her hair after she took off her veil, and that she became semi entangled in the veil at one point.
Madonna continued to push the envelope in her career and put many Catholics and others' knickers in quite the bunch with her Like A Prayer video.
Fact.. it was her highest-selling single and viewers voted the video as the "Most Groundbreaking Music Video of All Time".
Many people argue that Lady GaGa is a huge Madonna rip off. Although I am not a Madonna fan at all, her pop songs were much better than GaGa's. (never thought I would be defending Madonna's music)
Yes.. shocking people has always worked. (Right Cher?)
And we certainly couldn't name all of them here. But one thing for sure... they had the right stuff.
But does GaGa have the right stuff? Is her only claim to fame shocking the audience with costumes and stage humping, so they won't notice her lackluster singing? It looks that way. Although her fans would certainly disagree.
GaGa is also trying to further her career by posing for an ENDLESS amounts of nudie photos. Now I am not a prude in any sense, but honey if your bringing out all the goods now, what's left? Put that dern thing away!
Take for instance this lovely photo of her half straddling a skeleton. Yawwwwnnn. Needless to say, I had the same reaction as the skeleton. DEAD BORED.
