Link16 Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 Is Gaga the most successful transition from music to film since Barbra Streisand?
GraceRandolph Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 Undoubtedly. Her first lead film role was less than four years ago and now she’s an undeniable BISMS and Academy Award staple.
Blade Runner Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 (edited) Checks: secured! Oscars: in the bag! Acclaim: collected! Respect: earned! Like who else but the Entertainment Industry. Saying someone else is simply pure delusion. But this is ATRL so they will find a way. Thank God the rest of the world and the industry don't share the same level of stupidity.

EnigmaticAndroid Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 Babs was a known/acclaimed actress before she was a music star so I wouldn't use her as a reference point. Cher would make more sense and imo Gar's run so far (ASIB- HoG) is stronger than hers (Silkwood- Mask).
Beyonceist Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 Absolutely, she is a brilliant actress. I would also give my left testicle for her to do another season of AHS.
Resquid Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 Absolutely. On top of that she is also the greatest pop artist of the century. This double success puts her as the only worthy candidate to greatest entertainer alive EASILY no wonder OGH’s have been melting down left and right lately
Assassin Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 she hasn't reached Beyonce level movie salary, but maybe she will get there one day.

Mikeymoonshine Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 (edited) Seems pretty obvious that the industry noticed her making ASIB a huge hit and single handedly saving HOG from bombing. There's nothing better for an actor's career than being a box office draw, not even all the A list actors have that. I would compare her to Cher as Barbra was always an actress but then she's kinda doing better than Cher so far. Ignore the trolls, don't drag Beyonce. Beyonce has nothing to do with this.

lavenderblo Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 I would say so, yes. HOG was a decent follow up to ASIB, not the best, but she did it and that's that. As a Gaga stan through and through, I'll still say I'm shocked she has been so well received as an actress. It's deserved, but it still surprised me. I'm curious to see what she'll do after Joker. I do think her career from here on out will likely be actress more than musician and I'm okay with that.
Protocol Posted August 11, 2022 Posted August 11, 2022 Yes although 8 Mile opening to $70M+ was absolutely huge and unprecedented and Eminem could've been a real film star if he had wanted to.

Beyoncé made $15m for lion king If you can't quote Hollywood Reporter, Variety, or Deadline, then don't quote a number. Those are the only sources worth trusting. None of them reported Beyonce making $15M for Lion King, which is an insane number considering she hadn't done a movie in like 10 years.
