Random PICTURE of the day thread *KEEP IT WORK SAFE*

Nah, man. If she was that good, she wouldn't need the gimmicks.

She decided that she wanted to be another Madonna / Marylin Manson to get more notoriety. That seems to be what people want nowadays. That's unfortunate.

IMO, the gimmicks are separate from the music. They're a tool, not something used to make up for a lack of talent. Compare her stardom trajectory to some other female piano composers / singers.

Tori Amos - First album released in 1986; Net worth $55MM ($2.03MM/yr)
Alicia Keys - First album released in 2001; Net worth $45MM (3.75MM/yr)
Lady Gaga - First album released in 2008; Net worth$190MM ($38MM/yr)

Music isn't all about money, but if Lady Gaga is in it for the dollars then she's smart as shit. She knows how to market herself with said gimmicks, how to stay "relevant" with her target demo, how to stay in the media, and how to make music... and how to get rich as F.

Nice post. It comes down to the dollar and her money making value. You can't blame her.
