The Lady GaGa Effect

[Suckrates]

 

First, let me say that I LOVE Lady GaGa and am a BIG fan....  But then WHY am I the only one NOT freaking out over her Super Bowl Half time performance ?

GaGa treated us to a spectacular show, but it was Old School GaGa as she went back to her roots and performed some of her most famous and iconic hits.  No lip-syncing for GaGa and her vocals were on point.  The costumes dazzled.  It's what we expect from GaGa and she didnt disappoint...  Bravo !    BUT, there was nothing new here, nothing UNexpected, no surprises.   While I loved the show I was a little disappointed because I was expecting something so SPECTACULAR, and she didnt deliver that to ME....

For Me personally, the only reason to watch super Bowl IS the half time show.  I remember Miss Diana Ross, Katy Perry and of course Queen Bee Beyonce.   Gaga has EARNED her placed, but not the crown.  I had missed the Old GaGa after her recent cowgirl incarnation for her new hit A Million Reasons, and loved that she brought that Old magic back for this show, but my expectations were just too high. I left saying "GaGa is back",  not "That was Awesome".....

Annie, dont get me wrong, I too applauded, but it was soley for the performance and NOT the creativity of it...  For that it was "been there, done that"....

It was subtly political. No in your face antics as she has done in the past, but she was still holding true to all she preaches. Anything over the top would have been dismissed in the arena of the SuperBowl. I think she made a passive agressive statement with her show.
