You’ve probably already seen it, but for those of you who spend your time perusing lesbian websites and haven’t heard, the mommy of all you little monsters has unveiled her album cover for Born This Way. All I have to say is… Oh my Gaga?!
For any other artist, this would probably be surprising—confusing, even. But after the reigning queen hatched from an egg on stage at the Grammy’s, nothing she does really surprises me anymore. She’s… a motorcycle? I’m sure there are plenty dykes who would love to ride THAT bike!
This chick is single-handedly turning the industry upside down. People don’t know what to do with themselves, it seems. There are journalists, at this very moment, trying to figure out the artistic significance of this cover and the meaning behind it. Is this some post-modern social commentary about the marriage of humanity and machines as she becomes the ultimate cyborg? Or is it just some sort of homage to Judas Priest’s classic cover?
Oddly enough, her fans don’t seem shocked at all. In fact, they are tweeting about how disappointed they are with the “mediocre” cover. Will anyone every figure out why Gaga does what she does? Maybe, she is unorthodox simply to get the attention and gain the fame she’s wanted since she was a little girl.
I don’t really care about the “why” so much as I do about the “what’s next?”
She blew Madonna’s pointy bra out of the water a long time ago, and hasn’t looked back. Right on, Gaga!! Keeping making all that noise.
