If you’re on people’s TVs for too long, they’ll get sick of seeing your face, and then they’ll hate you–waiting for you to make one or a couple small slip-ups that can be re-contextualized into seemingly cancellable behavior.įor those first 4-5 years of Gaga’s career, she never went away. It’s imperative a celebrity stays within the public sphere enough to be “relevant,” but there is such a thing as overexposure-especially with women. The Born This Way Ball tour started in April of 2012, lasting a little under a year before being cut short by a traumatic hip injury that (among other things) has caused Gaga chronic pain ever since.

On May 23rd, a whole 17 days after wrapping up her last big release’s international tour, Born This Way, the album, debuted at number one with the highest first-week sales the US had seen in five years. The Monster Ball tour ran up until May of 2011, but the first single for her next album dropped in February. One month later, she dropped a new single, “Bad Romance,” followed by an EP, The Fame Monster. Her first album, The Fame, dropped in August of 2008, about a month after the explosion of her second single, “Poker Face.” That album’s tour, The Fame Ball, started the next year in May, then ended in September. See, in the first 4-5 years of her career, Lady Gaga didn’t take a break. That album’s success doomed ARTPOP in more ways than one. ARTPOP might have sold more copies than a vast majority of musicians could hope to sell in a lifetime, but at 258,000 in its first week, its sales were pitifully lower than her previous album’s debut of over one-million. Yes, as many little monsters will defend, ARTPOP did debut at number one, and yes, it was internationally the ninth best-selling album of its year, but that can’t prove the album’s success because success is subjective. Is the 2015 album, Emotions, a successful indie record with widespread critical acclaim, or do we evaluate Carly Rae Jepsen’s success on the cultural explosion of “Call Me Maybe”? A flop album should seemingly be defined as an album that doesn’t sell many copies, but that can only be relative to an artist’s previous work or the expectations of success. We should first acknowledge that there are no set standards for what makes someone or something a “flop”–a concept that is culturally defined where the characteristics waver with every prominent example. ould we could belong together( ARTPOP) We could we could belong togethe ARTPOP) We could we could belong togethe ARTPOP) ARTPOP ARTPOP Come to me with all your subtext and fantasyJust do that 9 9.Swine Lady Gaga- ARTPOP9.Swine Hush up Don't speak don't wanna hear another(Not another word f 10 10.Donatella Lady Gaga- ARTPOP10.Donatella I am so fab Check out I'm blonde I'm skinny I'm rich And I 11 11.Fashion!
