During the last months of 2011, partly because of some huge overexposure, Gaga's career was evidently losing momentum. 'You And I' didn't succeed outside America while 'Marry The Night' failed almost everywhere; her admirable promo efforts' effects seemed to be gettin' smaller and smaller besides a few exceptions (Thanksgiving special): her high-profile New Year's Eve performance didn't lead to any noticeable increase in both albums and singles sales. Then, Adele swept award shows (Grammy Awards, BRITs) in February, leaving Gaga in the shadows: she didn't walk the red carpet, give press conferences or performances at the Grammys, keeping an extremely low-profile, and didn't even attend Brit Awards, despite being nominated in a main category.

Now that her overexposure has been forced to end, the situation seems brighter: her worldwide tour, the Born This Way Ball, has kicked off to huge acclaim and success, her catalog sales are stable, and her limited appareances (like the Simpsons' episode) seem to be gettin' more interesting. Her fashion sense is also getting better after some lows of the 'Born This Way' era, and the media and the general public seem to be reacting well to her keeping a low profile.

So, is Gaga career regaining momentum? Or is it just keeping its slow decline? Or has it never lost some?

She has never lost some..

Just on ATRL..

She was literally everywhere last year..

She's in hibernation as far as the public are concerned (with the except of the arrival of the tour).

[MusicTalker]

She never lost any.

[SOTDH]

I think she wants to
be done with being on top and is now going to have a low profile for the next few years.

ATRL just do too much.

She was on a break then, she is on a worldwide tour now.

Exactly. She's not in decline, and I guess staying away from the spotlight a little bit is helping her image. But not that much.

[Scuba_Dive]

Yeah, it's very possible she herself is tired of it.

[freebitch26]

Obviously

[BoyOnBoy Wonder]

The Simpsons episode could help; and I think the fact that she's been wearing beautiful fashion that people appreciate is a really good thing.

But to the GP, it's like Jay said: she's nonexistent at the moment.

[CaptainMusic]

Not really.

Was she on break between August and February 2011?

[Kang.]

She never really went anywhere. And if she did, it's not like she's back now. She hasn't done anything recently.

Her peak was "Bad Romance."
Ever since, it continues a strong, steady decline.

I think it's still declining, at least in the U.S. With fun., Gotye, and a whole slew of new artists having great success, people aren't exactly "missing" Lady GaGa right now. If she doesn't release something this year, her window might close.
