1) ...So, I totally agree with you on several points<br />1) Gaga outshines the hell out of Beyonce<br />2) they are "jankity" together (that is actually a word in my vernacular as well...love it!)<br />3)Gaga is extremely avant garde <br />4)This is a very gay video. I'm also glad that you said you felt mildly uncomfortable about the Honey Bun. I thought it was creepier than if they'd made out.<br /><br />That being said, I'm thinking this<br /><br />1)If Gaga is so avant garde, why is this song just a pretty typical club jam, about being in the club, etc? I'd think it was time for her songs to get edgier. I'm not sure "mass homicide in a diner" would work as a lyric, but still. This song is about being at the club and your man riding your ass to get home. Sounds silly, but I identified. I was hoping it would be retaliatory and topical.<br />2) I can't BELIEVE how many brands were willing to be promoted alongside this video. So many companies have sticks up their asses about backing anything risque (I know it's not directly a marketing example, but when Good Morning America refused Adam Lambert after the kissing thing at the American Music Awards last year), and this video is at least PG13 viewing material. Polaroid has gone public in their hiring of Gaga as a face to revitalize their brand, but way to go, Coke, Little Debbie, etc.LizSmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11695067934815976684noreply@blogger.com
