Where do we even begin a discussion about Gaga? The end kills me! No pun intended.

Temps said...

Also, yeah. She wasted no time on wearing that McQueen bedazzled number.

Temps said...

Ok, I figured out where to start. Her use of simply amazing clothes.

Maybe some of you didn't notice, but unlike most pop stars, Gaga's stage and video costumes are more often than not off-the-runway looks. (The metal corset in Pap, Dolce & Gabbana, and here; the shoes and sequined number are McQueen from just a few weeks ago).

Given her insane body, they're probably not even that custom fitted. Unlike, say, Madanna or Beyonce who commission costumes from designers like JP Gaultier, Gaga's team goes at it from much more of a stylist's approach; which I think gives her "haus" a interesting creative flexibility.

i wish it didnt go by so fast, i wanted time to be able to see everything that was going on! love the crazy gold costume towards the end.if i had one, id wear it everyday and it would just become my exoskeleton. means clothing is so much of our lifestyle/identity, why not make yourself a new 'creature' of sorts! uniquely not quite human. the white ones did seem to be a mock of where the wild things are. ps what a damn sex icon, can they show this on tele?

just one comment. The girl can work a bear skin rug robe. My favorite costume is still the yellow mickey mouse number at the end of paparazzi. I love those glasses she wears!

VA said...

i love the frozen scene with the crystals suspended in air around her. the shoes shes wearing are fierce but you only see them for a second.

also,that cat was positively terrifying...and the language of his face was just like those white body suits. creeeeepy. and fabulous.

VA said...

the scene in the bathtub is like some kind of robotic, baby-doll, pop-culture icon after-birth.

Kaitlyn said...

how have we not mentioned that she loves david bowie?

duh and duh.

At this point, I would venture to say that Lady GaGa is singlehandedly responsible for getting me through graduate school. Not fucking kidding.

did anyone notice the glasses at :09 are made of razor blades? she knows what's up.

Kaitlyn said...

she had them custom made.
