I think it's alright, not as good as Telephone though. Although that might just be because I prefer the song Telephone to Alejandro.
Plus Telephone has Beyoncé on it which instantly puts it ahead of Alejandro for me lol. |

"christina copying gaga's sunglasses!!!!" (lmao!!! SUNGLASSES THAT ANYONE CAN WEAR) and "she's copying madonna!! (even though christina said it was a homage) After saying all that suddenly it's ok for Gaga to pay homage even though gaga fans ripped the piss out of Christina for doing it! Hypocrisy. Shameful thing

Lady GaGa is quite an attractive woman in real life but why make her self look so ugly.
This video is good but I can't see it being a must see. I think she should cool down on the long videoes now. The Video is just too detailed and full of sex. I think a video of her on the beach meeting all of her past lovers would have been great. |

How exactly?! Seriously! I love Madonna but she wasnt the first at all! She was the most famous, and hugely successful person to do these things (with religion and sex) but there were plenty of artists who did it first! And also in this video, I literally see a handful of nods to Madonna but no rip off at all!

So who did it all before Madonna then given she was and still is regarded as the first woman of the music video.

but you dont do it constantly the way gaga is
I just don't see how being inspired by someone so influential as Madonna is seen as a bad thing. You can't really say Lady Gaga is a carbon copy of Madonna, she's taken some of Madonnas better qualities and combined them with her own, shes not coming out single after single looking like and sounding like Madonna is she. |

What parts of Just Dance, Poker Face, Papparazzi, Lovegame and Bad Romance are Madonna copies? She had a similar look for about 1/10th of Telephone and has a couple of homages in Alejandro. Probably about equal to one full video dressed up as Marilyn no?

At this point in time, Yes she is. |

Like I've said before.. I don't see why people keep coming back to post the same negative thing in different words.

She's bought decent pop music back to the masses, and that's what I am grateful for. I'm a rock girl really, and I never thought I'd get back into pop again tbh, once I left my early teens, but Gaga's made me appreciate it again. |

Im a gaga fan but that video was just sooo boring and did nothing to already help what is a weak song.
I mean her diehard fans will have orgasms over watching it because they give in to the hype etc but like it was soo dull and boring... doubt ill even watch it when it comes on the music channels. |

Shameful thing ![]() Catholic Girl rebels against religion by sexing up a nun is something madonna would perhaps do, in fact I don't doubt that she would if it fit with her video or song, but again Gaga doing it isn't an exact copy of a scene from a Madonna video is it. Unfortunately Christina's video had a poor director or a poor person coming up with the concept that left her open to attack. We all know she's better than copying Madonna so blatantly, I don't doubt she has the ability to properly pay homage, better than the way she did, she's had some awesome videos in the past, Dirrty, Hurt, Fighter, Can't Hold Us Down, Come on Over, Candyman etc have all been great videos, some clearly inspired by other eras and other artists but never blatant copies, NMT was lazy, end of. She's better than that, she's shown it in the past, personally I can't deny that NMT just has too much that is more than paying homage and is more just copying Madonna. |

Seems a bit pointless. I wish I could have a discussion about Gaga without people making me feel stupid for liking her, it's getting ridiculous.

I've only seen the video once and really don't know what to think.
I think it's fine that Lady Gaga is paying homage to Madonna in this video, but I hope she doesn't in her next video. |

There is paying homage by taking an idea of someone elses and updating/expanding on it to fit into your own ideas, such as the cone bra of Madonnas which clearly inspired the gun bra which fit the military theme. Then there is dressing up as the Express Yourself video and recreating the cheapest parts of it which don't really make sense at all with the mish-mash of random scenes cobbled together into a video.
Catholic Girl rebels against religion by sexing up a nun is something madonna would perhaps do, in fact I don't doubt that she would if it fit with her video or song, but again Gaga doing it isn't an exact copy of a scene from a Madonna video is it.

So at least you admit she is a big copycat. |

I know, I'm sick of all the music snobbery on here, I feel like some people think I'm stupid just because I'm a big Gaga fan, but I can assure them I'm definitely not.
