Well let's face it - she wouldn't dream of insulting the Thai people so it was obviously a mistake on her part. However I'm not really sure she should apologise cos it's clear she loves Thailand and it's people, and didn't mean anything rude by it!

Again I think it's just a minority attempting to force themselves on the majority :yawn:

Well, you never know, she could maybe pop in when she's here for the tour. I always thought it was a little early to confirm that she'd be there. I guess nearer the time they may announce something. Let's keep our fingers crossed.

As for that Thailand thing, they need to lighten up.

How childish. She didn't say that's all there was, just that those activities were on her to do list. And Thailand (especially bangkok) is particularly seedy. I've been, it was wonderfully honest.

It's probs just the press making a storm in a teacup, there's not really a story there but somehow they made one!

I'm totally addicted to the forums on gagadaily - I'm loving all the gaga conspiracy theories about songs, albums and concepts!

Did you see when people were looking for things in her lipstick on the singles and album cover? I was in fits of laughter.

Oh yeah like how there were numbers in her lips on the edge of glory single cover - and those numbers correspond with the date that this Dot character created their twitter account. It makes me laugh too, but I love it all the same!

The whole Dot thing is HILARIOUS. Whenever facts are stated to disprove their theories they completely ignore them, yet when people randomly make stuff up to support them, they respond.

That would be so cool though. Secret messages in parts of the artwork to a link where you can hear a brand new song by Gaga. Some bit of gibberish in a song that, when played backwards, says a web address to go to. Just something to really enhance the joy of being a Gaga fan.

What'd really be cool would be if each song had a hidden message with a hint of where to hear an acoustic version. For example in Born This Way we may have had to visit SameDNA.com, for TEOG it would be available by searching her facebook page for GrandpaGaga where there'd be a link etc. Then trolling us by just leaving one acoustic unrecorded lol

That seems to be common amongst Little Monsters. To be honest I wouldn't class myself as one because the whole label thing makes me uncomfortable, plus I'm not 14 lol.

There's so many hilarious theories flying around, it is very entertaining. However, I'm sure there's some truth to a few of them. Gaga loves leaving clues and leading the fans on a merry chase - I think a few just run away with it. A lot.

I remember someone who theorized that the clues were in the first album. I doubt when Gaga wrote The Fame she even realized that she'd be where she is right now.

I wonder if she even realizes how much power she holds.

Kind of like an elaborate treasure hunt?

It does appeal but I totally would not be able to work it out, I'd be lurking on threads (as I do now) to get all the clues!!

Who knows? I think a part of her does but I think her family keep her grounded enough so that she doesn't take it for granted.

However, the cock-up over promo singles suggests they had no idea they'd be so popular. Hopefully they won't make it again but I don't want them to go too far the other way. Her naiveity is part of her charm I find. A healthy medium is what they need to find!

Yeah, I love how naive she is, it makes me laugh but at times its so frustrating.

Let's hope that she holds onto it, I hope she never becomes cynical with it all - that would be sad.

That's what's so great about it, it will bring people together like a massive team buildin exersize. Amazing. You'll lurk, you'll share, you'll see what others don't and discover new stuff. It's perfect.

As far as promo singles go - no. Don't do it. Americano made me want the album so much from the mexico performances, that's the best method, dangle the carrot!

Where is Hayes? She is a little joy

She left because a member (who has suspiciously never returned to this thread) told her to stop posting so much.

I miss her smilies.

I miss her little smiles as well. I just wish we heard more of what she thought and felt, instead of her agreeing all the time.

She was so happy all the time! Hope she comes back sometime.

Yes you're right, there's parts for everybody! They could have a pottermore for gaga fans You know though as her career progresses and more people catch onto the clues it could really turn into something brilliantly fun. Gaga will drop more clues, it could turn really elaborate - like you suggested.

I'd like a hidden track too, like the acoustic on Paolo's first album, or the hidden songs on The Scissor sisters album. That'd be a nice touch.

She could even make the 2nd disc of the special edition contain a pc program like they used to, which has a game or something to give you a website code for a free ticket contest entry or a secret track etc.

Such promo possibilities.

Unreleased BTW video is out! The stills look amazing!

The neon look really makes me think she could do a piano/etc album with electro visuals. Kinda like Coldplay do. Epic.

So Madonna is actually doing Express Yourself/Born This Way and then she sings She's Not Me at the end

I've decided to give her the benefit of the doubt and see it as a dig at the media in a kinda "pick on someone your own size" way. We'll see.

Like the cover for Kylie's Impossible Princess?
