Fan 'kills cat in Lady GaGa tribute'


I think this is why we can't have nice things... how strange (and sad)!

that's not strange, it's just cruel in my opinion.

Absolutely no need for it. And how is it a "tribute" exactly? I'm sure GaGa would be appalled by her so-called-fan's behaviour

That's awful. How do people think up this stuff? I remember when someone killed their cat because Miley Cyrus wouldn't come back on Twitter. Bloody awful stuff.

I don't think Gaga is to blame to be honest.. but this girl in question was using the cat to make a dress.. Gaga was wearing a meat dress, also with the whole blood thing too I can see the connection. But this girl clearly has mental health problems. It would have been something else if this never happened.

What a mad, crazy little woman.

Every artist has their nutcases to be fair, and because Gaga is by her nature so theatrical and over-the-top she probably unintentionally encourages the nutcases to really go to town and do something really crazy like kill a cat and wear its blood.

I agree on the latter. If you're mentally unstable, you're mentally unstable. If it wasn't Gaga, it would have been something or someone else. Not like she's the worst influence out there.

If she wanted to replicate Gaga's look more sanely - she could have bought a bottle of fake blood from a joke store.

I actually think her firework bra (and to a degree, Katy Perry's Firework video) poses much more danger, because that only takes some idiot to hold a firework to their chest for a joke...and well, we can guess the ending to that one.

My earlier post was a bit jumbled I think, I was half sleeping! I mean that I can see why people would blame Gaga.. because of the blood stuff, meat dress etc.

Gaga has always been against hatred & cruelty. I think if the girl in question was going to another artists concert, no one would make a connection.

This girl also attacked a nurse with glass. Clearly unstable. I hope she gets the help & punishment she deserves.

Shit like this is happening way too often. A bigger punishment NEEDS to be brought in.

She is charged with "Animal Cruilty". Animal Cruilty is kicking a Dog or playing catch with a Hamster. This isn't animal cruilty, it's murder. She drowned it which is bad enough but then she cut it into pieces. She is sick and should be sectioned.

It isn't fair that Lady gaga is blamed either, she used fake blood... why couldn't her dim witted fan do that.

Yeah, but why even use ANY blood, fake or otherwise? She's a pop singer FFS, not the leader of some wacko religious cult. On second thoughts....

That's nothing.

Bjork had a fan who mailed her an acid letter bomb and filmed himself for 18 hours talking about his obsession with her, before shaving all his hair off, putting facepaint on then shooting himself.

Still, it's sad that anyone would ever do this to an animal, despite what it was meant for. It's nothing to do with Lady Gaga. I'm sure there's mental fans all over the world. It shows more about that person's state of mind than it does Lady Gaga's fans.

I see where you are coming from.. I think sometimes she is pushing a bit too far.. but we all know what she's like, she's mad, whacky, out there & wild!

But yeah I actually I agree maybe using blood wasn't the best idea.

I hope she makes an announcement about this. Poor cat!

I just want to clarify my earlier post - I don't blame Gaga at all. Every artist has their lunatic fans. I just think the over-the-top nature of Gaga means that the acts of "fandom" are probably more severe from her fans due to that reason. Doesn't excuse or explain it, and I'm sure there's more than a little coincidence involved but thought it was worth pointing out.

That was sick, but it's not GaGa's fault.

She wasn't even the first one to bleed to death onstage.

I hope that girl gets help.

I kind of didn't. I was just making the point that a pop singer shouldn't be using blood (fake or not) on stage, no matter whether this incident happened or not. It's just stupid. The problem she has is she has to outdo her previous outlandishness with every era to remain where she is. Where will it end? Doing an Ozzie Osbourne?

Why??? If she wants to do that in her performances then it's her choice!

I think we all have to get some perspective here. I think there is something very important here, and I say this as someone that probably has less time than most for Lady Gaga.

She is using FAKE blood on STAGE, its a performance, theatre, spectacle whatever word you want to use. Lady Gaga is a persona, even a character. This is no more the cause of animal cruelty than Romeo and Juliet responsible for teen suicide.

We cannot as a society limit what can and cannot be done on stage or in fiction because one person cannot draw the line between fantasy/fiction/performance and reality

Thanks for this thread Andy.

My daughter is going through the lady gaga fad at the moment, following her friends like sheep. Hope she moves onto someone else very fast.

Gaga is a bit like the rooney of the pop world, a very poor role model and not a person I want my teenage daughter being associated with.
