The `ARTFLOP` brigade really are pathetic.
What is it with certain people who have become obsessed with seeing lady gaga fail.
Artflop is the new buzz word amongst them.
Its very bizarre .
She's one of the richest young musicians out there.
Why the hate? It baffles me. She works hard. Its not like she's one of those artists who sits back and does sod all till they are called to the studio to sing someone else's readily produced song.

Many people dislike Gaga because of her fans. When she became 'mother monster' and me (one of the fans) became 'monsters' it all changed I think.
ALOT of 'monsters' were vile online and its specific to other artists that are gaining in prominence and have success therefore taking some of Gaga's spotlight.
Look at Adele and what she did for music in 2011....Gaga did nothing in comparison. Yet Adele was the one that got SHAT on by the 'monsters'. Fair enough don't listen to Adele's music, don't go out your way to post a vile message to her on Twitter. Or is that too hard to do?
I stopped being a big fan of her because of the media clumping us fans together....!
It also is cringe when you watch her iTunes performance this past month....get on with the singing and stop with the posing.
1). Gaga doesn't have the same grasp on the public she had before, therefore there isn't as much support or anticipation for the new music.
2). The Little Monsters have shot themselves in the foot with a dose of their own medicine. Other fan groups have almost become allies in order to defeat the Little Monsters. They are doleing out insults to the Little Monsters to rile them up.
3). 'Artpop' ends with 'op' just like the word 'flop'... it just works. The adding on of 'flop' to underperformances is just too common on the internet no matter if it fits the word or not (Little Monsters called Christina's albums 'floponic' and 'floptus', that's just bad wordplay. 'Artflop' just rolls off the tongue).
Reap what you sow.
i have never once used that buzz word, but it has been insinuated that i may want gaga to fail. frankly, there is no denying i comment on her a lot and to an extent these in insinuations are inevitable.
i feel absolutely no "hate" towards her whatsoever, but it is of course well documented here that i am clearly not a fan. however, i do comment positively about her when she does something that warrants it in my opinion. only recently i commended her on what i thought was a good performance on gma.
gaga's biggest problems are her ego and some of her fans behaviour. she doesn't handle criticism well at times and some of her fans react disproportionately at the sightless criticism. all artists in the mainstream are speculated negatively at times, but some people act like this is a grave injustice exclusive to gaga.
Plus when she was at her biggest popularity wise I grew bored of her as she was everywhere . That is another reason I grew disinterested in her .
Why the hate? It baffles me. She works hard.
So we should like her because she's rich? What?
Some people are just calling a spade a spade, no hate. If she did well I'd be first to congratulate her.
That said everything I've heard from ARTPOP is bland (which has disappointed me greatly) so I usually just steer clear of all Lady Gaga news/discussions these days.
This video sums it up really good.
Lady Gaga - "Applause" PARODY
... the fact that in the last two months 100% of your posts have been about Gaga? Mariah Carey says hi.
main points being that people feel she took herself too serious with all the 'art' stuff, whilst producing songs talking about 'bluffing with my muffin'.
again, her fans put people off, ie the sharon osbourne business.
the pretentious 'love yourself' speaches, where people say they actually leave shows because of it. they just go to sing along to some music.
her constant love for 'the gays' (her words) and putting us in a stereotype and only recognized by the fact we're gay. the total opposite to indivuality.
people not realy knowing who gaga is, because of her image changing all the time, they feel she has used every shock tactic and people get bored of it.
and i agree with some other posts about karma for the fans - have you forgotten when Taylor Swift and Adele got really popular? EVERY thread about them was hijacked by people slagging them off saying they will all flop, Adele only sold so many copies of 21 because of the supermarket shoppers and she will flop and she should die etc. and then sadly like Sharon Osbourne said, it reflects badly on the Artist, especially when the artist seems to ignore it... and THEN do that silly public letter back, which, olny would show her fans its okay to do what they do if the other person is doing it to..
and obviously the born this way era put off alot of people..and then for Applause to underpeform etc
but i agree, nobody can say ARTPOP has flopped yet because it hasnt even really begun.
You stopped liking her because of her fans? That's ridiculous. Like musicians for their music.
ridiculous, obsessed, childish, pathetic and flops, all insinuations or words used here to describe gaga detractors and even people that have simply disconnected from her. the name calling or the dismissing of opinion by deeming it "ridiculous", doesn't really put a convincing case together to counteract the numerous claims here that some of gaga's fans are partly to blame for this supposed "hate".
I assume 'obsessed' was me? Well when 87% of a person's posts since September 2011 have been about an artist they clearly hate, obsessed is not the word.
have you been doing the maths?:D
To be fair though, it didn't take much time - said member's only posted 48 times in the last two years, so I only had to glance over two pages of posts. It was something to do during the ad-break.
