It’s just too good not to post. Gaga definitely brings out the haters (pretty sure I lost some twitter followers over her today LOL) but looking solely at this video – no, scratch that ANY of her videos but especially this one – please tell me how you’re still hating!? I started out completely skeptical of everything Gaga, but she has more than won me over with time, and visually (and I like the music too, but see how one would hate it) just hits it out of the park. Unlike some others, her creativity is genuine, not just the product of… being a product?
This a perfect pop video in my book (minus the weird bug eyes, not really into that) and I would totally work for the Haus of Gaga any day haha. I would actually like to DIY the red number at the end and do the Charleston in it all day.
I rarely get this fangirl-y but I LOVE this video. Get it Gaga… killing the Pop game. Also, check out Elizabeth going Gaga too, because she does it better than us all!
World free your mind, put your head back in the clouds and start the ch-ch-ch-change.

I’m also going to be a little copy editing shithead for a moment and call out POP on this kinda major typo in the Naomi piece: Stephan Meisel in one sentence, Steven Meisel in the next!?A definite slap on the wrist, but I guess these beautiful photos (and the gorgeous portraits of cutie Tavi) make up for it.
She may well be entering “it girl” territory, but Aurel Schmidt isn’t just talented-by-association. She is a genius artist first; the wacky downtown NY sense of style & ascent to indie darling are just icing on a delish cake. She has serious talent, the permanent kind, the kind worth framing – things that I’d actually pay money for. From her signature black frames and cow-licked hair, to her unabashed honesty, to the profanity and humor in her artwork – I love this girl.
Once I’m in a position to buy art, Aurel’s pieces will be among the firsts I’m after. My Grandmother’s definitely going to hate it, and my neighbors might not want to come over for dinner, but I like my art to talk, not just sit there and look pretty (though that has a time and place to). Aurel’s amazingly detailed, beautifully executed pieces are grotesque (maybe), honest (definitely), and fantastic conversation starters.
Giant has commissioned many many many of my favorite music portraits, including this of one of the most beautifulest, innovative, talented girls in the world.
