Little Monsters Begin "Marry The Night" Campaign

Mark your calendars!  December 20th is "Marry The Night" day, when little monsters will band together and download the single with hopes that it will become a hit.   Marry the Night has been sluggish on the charts despite Stefani's over saturated marketing and promotion.  There's even a Facebook campaign to try to get the song moving.  So far, it's a stalemate.  

Why not just let the song go down it's own path naturally?  If the song was any good or appealing to the masses, people would buy it on their own without the need for any campaign to persuade them.  If I hear a song on the radio by any artist and it doesn't resonate with me, there's nothing anyone can do to make me buy it.  The only people that will buy the single on December 20th are her fans.  Fans who already own the entire album and will cheat to get the song to chart higher; but I guess they've learnt from the best.

Seriously, speaking from a neutral standpoint, Stefani really should just take a break, even for a year.  Give the public a chance to miss her.  If her songs are moving at a snails pace, it's because of the over exposure and the constant need to be in the headlines.  People are getting sick of her or worse, bored of her and the only person to blame is herself.  Stefani's career is on a decline because it's just over kill now.  She hasn't even kicked off her Born This Way Ball Tour and she's already started working on her next album. 

And before little monsters on this blog start saying that there was an Express Yourself Day on March 17th, 2011, bear in mind that Express Yourself was officially released on May 9, 1989 and did really well on the charts.  Madonna already had this one in the bag in 1989.  No doubt the Express Yourself day in March 2011 was organized in protest in response to Stefani's rip off Born This Way.  Makes sense no?

 

Gaga Has Delusions of Grandeur

I don't think so

grandeur [ˈgrændʒə]

n

1. personal greatness, esp when based on dignity, character, or accomplishments

2. magnificence; splendour

3. pretentious or bombastic behaviour

Stefani's histrionic and narcissistic personality disorder have reached a new level of preposterous proportions.  Stefani has now aligned herself with the likes of Princess Diana.  Yes, that's right, it turns out that Stefani thinks she is the 21st century reincarnation of the late Princess.  Stefani has lumped herself into this category because of the delusional self image that she's as important and monumental as Princess Di and because of that, she's thinks she destined to die a tragic death similar to the Princess.

Rumor has it that Stefani's written a song for her next album about Princess Diana and views herself as  "pop music's" answer to Di.

“Diana was the most iconic martyr of fame. She died because of it,” Gaga reportedly has said.

Oh, there goes that annoying pseudo intelligence again.  Lets look at the definition of the word "martyr" why don't we.

1: a person who voluntarily suffers death as the penalty of witnessing to and refusing to renounce a religion

2: a person who sacrifices something of great value and especially life itself for the sake of principle

 

You see silly Gaga, Diana never voluntarily gave her life for fame.  She didn't want to die for a cause and she didn't want to sacrifice herself as an example so get your facts straight lady.

It's quite offensive and tacky that Stefani thinks of herself on the same level as Diana.  Stefani, did you take your medication today?  You are not Diana nor will you ever be.  You have zero, zilch, nada comparable to her.  Diana was graceful, beautiful, elegant, sophisticated and charming - all qualities you do not have Stefani.  She didn't flash her cooch for the world to see.  She didn't steal or plagiarize and unlike you, she actually had something intelligent to say based on real substance and not shallow emotions and lies. 

Diana also didn't complain that she was bullied because she had nice hair as she told Katie Couric during her nauseating Thanksgiving Special interview.  She also lied about the cafeteria, first stating that she never had a table to sit and then later in the show, pointing out the table she sat at with her friends.

Histrionic Personality Disorder:

People with this disorder are usually able to function at a high level and can be successful socially and at work.

Symptoms include:

• Acting or looking overly seductive
• Being easily influenced by other people
• Being overly concerned with their looks
• Being overly dramatic and emotional
• Being overly sensitive to criticism or disapproval
• Believing that relationships are more intimate than they actually are
• Blaming failure or disappointment on others
• Constantly seeking reassurance or approval
• Having a low tolerance for frustration or delayed gratification
• Needing to be the center of attention (self-centeredness)
• Quickly changing emotions, which may seem shallow to others

 Sounds like Gaga to me.

Electro Pop Duo Screwed by Former Gaga Producer

LA Based, Brooklyn bred Pop Duo Purple Crush are in a heated legal battle with former Gaga producer Rob Fusari. In addition to being a musical act, Isla Cheadle and Jared Selter of Purple Crush are song writers and were hired by Fusari to write music for Gaga's albums The Fame Monster and Born This Way.
 

Although none of the songs Purple Crush penned for Gaga were used on the album, due payment for the work was never honored by Fusari.
 

According to Purple Crush, their role involved expanding upon song snippets Fusari sent them, before forwarding their work along to artists, such as Gaga, who would add lyrics and melody. Work was done in their L.A. and Brooklyn studios.
 

Purple Crush stopped working with Fusari in the spring of 2010. Once Fusari settled his lawsuit with Gaga, he approached Purple Crush once again. This time he told them that production on her next album Born This Way was part of the settlement deal. Fusari used this apparent settlement deal as a bargaining tool to get Purple Crush to work for him. Plus he dangled a carrot of promises of a record deal which was never followed through.
 

Purple Crush were lead to believe that Gaga did in fact write over their music and feel that some of Gaga's tracks on Born This Way use their sound. In other words ripped off.
 

All in all, Purple Crush were hired to do a job and weren't paid for it; and they should be. The lawsuit has been going on for some time now. Purple Crush attempted to find a lawyer in NJ that would work pro bono, but were rejected by multiple law firms due to conflicts with Lady Gaga. As a result they are representing themselves in the lawsuit.

You can read more about the lawsuit here on Billboard.


Here's a video from Purple Crush – their song Vacation.

Is it Over for Lady Gaga?

By Bill O'Reilly for BillOReilly.com
Thursday, Dec 01, 2011

A few months ago in this space, I wrote a column about the cultural phenom Lady Gaga that ended with me politely telling her to save her money. That's because the treacherous world of popular culture is not usually a long-term proposition. Entertainment idols often pass through the fame obstacle course very quickly.

In showbiz, there is the term "jumping the shark" that is used to describe a project in decline. It is derived from the hit sit-com "Happy Days" which, sorely lacking for material after years on the air, featured a show wherein The Fonz went waterskiing in a leather jacket and encountered a shark. You guessed it: the Fonz jumped over the shark on the skis. After that, the days were not so happy on that program.

Now we have Lady Gaga, the ultimate edgy, anti-establishment pop star, swimming in dubious waters. Recently, she fronted a Thanksgiving special. The New York Times described it this way: "Lady Gaga performs before family and friends and offers a glimpse of her personal life in an interview with Katie Couric...

"She also whips up a feast of deep-fried turkey and waffles with the chef Art Smith."

Somewhere Janis Joplin is weeping. By the way, Gaga's special was trounced in the ratings by the 237th airing of the "Charlie Brown Thanksgiving Special."

And that's not all. The Associated Press reports that "Gaga's Workshop" is now open at the Barney's clothing store in Manhattan. Apparently, Gaga designed a special holiday shop featuring "a gigantic cartoon statue of the superstar herself in a pinup pose surrounded by jagged mirrors and sitting atop thousands of back plastic discs."

Forget the Rockefeller Center tree—the Gaga shop represents the true holiday spirit, does it not?

Now, some of you may think I am making this up, but it's all true. What I can't figure out is why Gaga's (Stefani Germanotta) management team seems to know nothing about history. The biggest pop icon ever, Elvis Presley, sabotaged his own career by starring in a series of movies like "Kissin' Cousins" and "Clambake." I mean, there was the once culturally dangerous Elvis, doing a dance called the "Clam" on a beach wearing black shoes and white pants. It took the King years to get back on track after those dopey flicks.

Last year, Gaga (Stefani) made $90 million from her songs and shows. Does she really need the Thanksgiving special? Or the Barney's exposure? Really?

The answer is "of course not." Gaga has now gone middle class mainstream, and at this rate, she will be co-hosting with Kelly Ripa any day now. The Lady may be trying not be a tramp, but she certainly has met the shark. And jumped it.

                                                                                                                                                                      

Now, I'm not a fan of Bill O'Reilly nor am I a fan of his politics or that horrible news station he works for, Fox News.  However, his view on Stefani is something I can agree with.

                                
       
                       

It's Confirmed

       
  
                        

              

And that's all I'm going to say.  Oh, and thank you to Royal Lioness for the GIF.
