Default Re: Kick Ass Music Video Thread

Can someone please please please explain how Lady Gaga and the above video is "awesome"? I just don't get why bad acting, bad music, bad production values and shameless advertising is good. Don't get me wrong, I think a lot of pop music is great, I just don't get the Gaga fascination. I normally like Beyonce songs, and I didn't even like her here.

Yup

Just wanted to clarify that.


Also, it's happening quite often nowadays and has happened in the past. See State Farm in the new OK Go music video
