What's Lady Gaga So Angry About?

gagamed0610.jpg Is Lady Gaga's new PR plan to be as rude and obnoxious and trashy as possible? Because it seems to be working! Just like it did for Britney and Lindsay.

The pop princess has gotten herself a plethora of press (just around the release of her new video for "Alejandro"). Last week she stole her little sister's thunder at her own graduation, which was followed by throwing a temper tantrum at a Mets game, and now she's lashing out on her fans (sorry, her monsters).

According to the NY Post, the "lady" sat down to dinner at Asia de Cuba over the weekend with 20 friends, and clearly not wanting to be noticed in her see-through gown and nude veil dining attire, she threw a fit when a fellow diner attempted to slyly snap her photo. According to the paper, "Gaga became noticeably upset, pushed her security team out of the way to confront the shutterbug and demanded he delete the photo."

Unless she starts directing this anger at BP, can we all stop paying attention now?

    Is the Gothamist on Lady Gaga's payroll like they were on Banksy's? Why cover this person? I mean, does anyone you know actually listen to her music?

  • Shamhammer

    my poor grey matter being turned to goo by the gross coverage of this mutant

  • JenChungsBaby

    More importantly, what about that chick in the "Real L Word" ad with the sun shining out of her crotch? Is that a metaphor for something?

  • jaycjay

    There's so much humor in this.

    A celebrity goes out, and acts in the way she does, with the intent of getting people to talk about her, and gets what is wanted in the form of articles full of outrage at her approach and very existence in pop culture.

    It's called publicity. The average joe and teeny bopper is eating it up.

    A Loss of originality? Her last video was so much a Madonna video, she should pay royalties.

    I'm betting her recent public "F___ You!!!" is all about press, nothing more.

  • JenChungsNewBra

    Jen2, go back to writing about hipsters.

  • Polite New Yorker

    I hope this period does not last, it will get in the way of her creativity. One of the reasons I've kind of liked her is that unlike the other pop tarts you mentioned, Gaga actually has musical talent and can actually play instruments and sing.

    She's supposed to be a little bit surly - she's from Yonkers (like me, Jadakiss and Tommy Dreamer, the Innovator of Violence).

  • dr zippy

    She grew up on the Upper West Side, not Yonkers.

    I'm with you on hoping this period does not last. Until this last week Gaga has put out some entertaining songs and videos and has come across as an intelligent, engaging person.

  • jles

    Pretty sure she's from the upper east side

  • wingedearth

    Stop talking about her. She's just trying to shock you for attention. Ignore her until she goes away.

  • fuboy

    Want a moment of privacy when out and about? Stop living as the Lady G act and go out as a normal person wearing normal clothes, Stef. Sadly "celebrity status" plus "looking outlandish at all times" yields more attention when combined than on their own.

    This brat needs to be put in her place if these outbursts continue.

    Ps: Stef, you looked better as a brunette.

  • no one would know or care if you weren't cackling about her every day Jen.

    "The pop princess"

    You're the one writing these inane article about someone only a deaf retard would appreciate.



    why dont YOU give it a rest. please.

  • airtech1

    Celebrity crush, obsession, self-projection, sublimination....

  • dr zippy

    Her temper tantrums wouldn't have anything to do with cocaine would they?



  • jibbly

    ^This. The fame-monster quickly morphs into the coke-monster pretty quick.

  • longacre

    The whole Lady Gaga/Naomi Campbell fucking with people phenomenon is perpetuated by idiots like this woman who oblige them when they act crazy. If Lady Gaga tells you to delete her photo, tell her to eff off, don't delete it...she has no right to demand anything. If Naomi Campbell hits you, hit her back, don't run away crying.

  • jles

    Far more at fault is the bloggers who perpetuate these stories by feeling the need to actually write them.

  • longacre

    Steroids.

  • TheCowman

    This chick is like genital herpes. The more you mess with it, pick at it and pay attention to it, the longer it takes to go away... er, so I've been told.
