Why Draw Attention?

Lady Gaga, also known as the Monster Mama has played a huge role in the music industry the past few years. Ever since her first record label came out, she was known for her beautiful, strong voice. Her songs had meaning and landed on the most popular radio stations. The catchy tunes would get stuck in everyone's head easily. But has anyone really seen the music videos? Does anyone look at what she wears? She is a female, Caucasian women, in her late twenties. She has a fantastic body, but her look seems to change every single music video released. 


Lady Gaga's music is amazing, she can really sing, but what's with the unnecessary costumes? Everyone's trying to be different these days, and trying to have their own style, but the outfits she wears aren't drawing positive feedback from her fans. For example, her VMA costume.

Why would anyone wear raw meet on their bare skin to an award ceremony? Nobody expected this to come from Lady Gaga, but the comments weren't so nice as well. Some of the celebrities were even scared such as Eminem. Finding it quite amusing how other stars reacted to her choice in attire, the one things that doesn't make sense is Lady Gaga has a drop dead amazing body and voice, so why does she have to go out of her way to try and stand out from the crowd. Not standing out in a positive way, but to make herself look like a "freak." Maybe she's trying to send a message to the world that she doesn't care what people think about her? Or maybe she's just a little bit crazy.
Lady Gaga has sent out so many different messages out to so many people through out the world, and she has impact many of her fans' lives. She is a great inspiration and role model in this corrupt society today. Her main message goes out to all her followers that they are important, that they are all beautiful, that they are the reason she's inspired.

Gaga shows off her body regularly, but not to attract people to listen to her music, she shows off her body because she's comfortable and everyone else should be comfortable in their own skin. Lady Gaga doesn't need to wear meat costumes, or crazy hair pieces to get attention. Lady Gaga, you are beautiful, and you can sing. Your songs aren't just words and beats put together, they're stories. Keeps singing girl, because you got it.

  1. I can agree with what you have to say about Lady Gaga. I'm not such a huge fan of her, but I do enjoy her music. Her outfits choices are what people look forward to when it comes to award shows, because they want to find out what other "over the top" ensemble she has created. One that I can remember is when she arrived to the Grammys in an egg. Stories about her egg surfaced that she was in there for three days. But she does send a very positive message through her work. That you can always be yourself, and you don't have to listen or worry what others think about you. Lady Gaga is a true inspiration to so many people who have struggled with insecurities and other problems that everyone will go through. And you're right, she doesn't have to go to the extreme lengths when it comes to dressing up for award shows and her music videos. Not just Lady Gaga, but any celebrity does not have to go any oddities to be caught in the lime light or to receive comments whether good or bad, like when Katy Perry wore a cube on her head at the Grammys.

  2. The thought of being different and having an outfit that everyone will be talking about if probably what they were going for, but if they were true artists, they wouldn't need to draw so much attention to themselves.
