Why can't it just be about the music?

Alejandro, Judas,

only religious fanatics get upset with this ****

This is a good thing to talk about. Should she have a deeper message to her tour? Why can't she just perform her hits? Why does everything have to have a point?

Wait... you stan for Gaga. Are you saying gaga shouldn't encourage gay rights in her music? Are you saying she shouldn't fight for gay rights and just let her music talk?

There isn't anything religious about the song Alejandro - just the video

Regardless of the 'context,' Madonna knows very well what she is doing. She's done it in two centuries (20th & 21st) and she is a master at this. Is it disrespectful? Well, Madonna has carefully disguised it with 'a message' so that it appears not to be. I am not offended, but I can see why people could easily be. Still, I wouldn't jump down her throat and call her disrespectful. I'd call her Madonna, and you can take that to mean whatever you'd like

Meh.Provocation and controversy is what Madonna has based and built her entire career and legacy upon.Who even cares anymore?Just enjoy the show.

I just wish gaga and Madonna would get along along with the stans

it is her impression as an artist.

madonna will never tone down.



this thread is a mess.

So you're telling me that an artist should not have to tone down their show when they're performing in a country that finds their message offensive...



Interesting perspective.

[Dickard]

Shoot I automatically assumed this was about the born this way mashup
I mean, obviously shock creates careers (gaga, her) so what she's doing/did is a smart business move

either this or not playing at all.

which means planning too.

sorry about my bad english

[DeathRevisited]

But why are people offended?
It's not like Madonna is praising it.
She touched on all injustices.
Sure it isn't pleasant but you can't go through life acting like it never happened.

I don't think Gaga would have toned it down if she was able to perform in indonesia without the death threats

I'm not saying anything, I'm just asking questions that have been raised.

[seismicity]

I'm not sure what's shocking/controversial about this, esp in context of the video. Hitler wasn't the only dictator displayed in the video.

So your perspective is that people should look at the whole show before jumping to conclusions about what is and isn't shocking/offensive, and that if it has a point, the artist shouldn't tone down their show to appease people who are offended?



Intriguing.

Now I know you didn't say this after Gaga just had the entire Islamic world lining up to shoot her
