L is for Lady Gaga


She is everywhere, it is impossible to turn on the radio and not hear a Lady Gaga song. In fact, as I am writing this, I am listening to her song. She's unstoppable, you would think that people would start to loose respect for her after she comes on stage wearing a one piece bathing suit and high heels. But no, the fans keep coming.


To tell you the truth, her songs aren't that bad, but they can be a bit repetitive. And then there's the obvious. Her songs are really dirty and what I mean by that is sexually inappropriate. Just imagine this, it's a Saturday morning and I'm on my way to hockey practice. My dad and I are sitting the car and there's an awkward silence. I try to make it a little bit less awkward by turning on CHUM FM. That's where everything goes downhill. It turns out, that there is a Lady Gaga song that comes on. It also just so happens that it is one of her most inappropriate songs yet. Poker Face. Then my dad says something along the lines of "Who sings this song?" or "What's this song about?" I then have to say something like "I don't know, I've never heard it before." Just to avoid somewhat of embarresment. That is why Lady Gaga should make her songs less dirty.


Finally, I would like to talk about her costumes. WOW!!! I don't know if I have ever seen her wearing anything that covers her thighs. I mean seriously, get some clothes. It's up to you if you want to wear skimpy costumes, but her costumes passed skimpy a long time ago. The costumes she wears are not just skimpy, she wears barely anything at all. But surprisingly, she doesn't get criticised as much as I thought she would. I think the reason she doesn't get criticised is because she is very creative. Her costumes do sometimes represent her songs, but I think most times it is because she feels the need to show extra cleavage and leg. Which I don't really think is necessary.
I will keep listening to Lady Gaga, but I think she needs to take a reality check, and realize that the more she wears those skimpy costumes and makes those dirty songs, the more respect she will loose.
Life Lesson: Don't wear skimpy costumes on stage.
