ASIB was a massive era, but it unfortunately didn't feel like it for awhile since she only performed twice, and the GRAMMY solo performance was forgettable at best.

The movie (as expected, not in a shady tone) carried the whole era. The best parts were as the era wrapped up during awards season.

Singer Gaga > Actress Gaga, so I refuse to give ASIB any flowers over Mayhem just because 2 songs were big

The reason ASIB outdoes MAYHEM is because of the pure sales. ASIB sold more than 3 million physical copies, something MAYHEM will never achieve

"Fashion is Art", she HAS to attend

omg this is like them baiting her to go there cmon GODGA

the MAYHEM era gave us the Abra -> Judas transition, so it wins by default

Charts: ASIB

Arts: Mayhem

Concert films don't require complex editing and post-prod work and can have relatively fast turnaround times if the artist wants them to be out quickly. Taylor filmed her LA shows for Eras between Aug 4-9 and the trailer was cut and released by the end of the same month so maybe the tour film comes first shortly after the tour wraps up.

Now, as for Requiem: somebody posted this on Twitter, these AM Live concerts are typically released anywhere between within a few weeks to a few months, with Billie's being the longest time of 6+ months.

...and Bjork being the exception with almost a year and a half between the filming and release.

It has already been 40 days since she filmed Requiem and by the time the tour wraps up in April, it will have been 3 months. If it doesn't come out by the end of summer, it'd become clear that she's holding it back for a future strategic release including using it as a promotional bridge for LG8 (which would make sense since it apparently has similar aesthetics and sound cues as LG8 plus it's literally the funeral for Mayhem), which would only strengthen the theory that she plans to release the album later this year or worst, early next year, which sounds insane but plausible.

TLDR; we are getting FED this year too.

Where did WB get those money to bid the Mayhem film with bomb after bomb after bomb in the past couple of years?

So NOW you all want her to attend the MET?

Final LA date and filming tonight

Gaga better not mess up. the house party-size HBO audience will not tolerate imperfection

Born This Way is about to cross 17 million units globally and that's on smashing in two separate decades

Throwback to when Gaga needed to defend the commercial performance of BTW in interviews back in 2011

Vividly remember her in a magazine interview needing to ask how many records she needs to sell before it's enough for people

The fact that the 99 cent debacle is completely erased from history too given how much BTW has gone on to smash.

Not that it even mattered back then either since that sale only accounted for like 300-400k copies from BTW's colossal count and Amazon had fully purchased those copies it sold for 99 cents.

They dropped the ball not making her a co-chair. WTF, this is like, her who existence.

This guy has posted multiple times about how his show in LA was ruined because of the filming... and tbh, I think his concerns are valid.

HOWEVER, I am so excited over how much thought is being put into this recording. I'm okay with sacrificing the happiness of multiple fans in exchange for her best tour doc.

Wait how are they going to shove a camera in my face last night for a solid 2 minutes as I attempt to push out a tear during Million Reasons for dramatic effect and not give me an invite to whatever premiere Q&A rumor is going around? I don't believe it.

Okay so bey is definitely coming. She better not play and put gar on the rock album, especially if she's willing to release songs with Miley and Post.

It's quite possible that she was asked and turned it down

Rumor has it they asked Gaga first and after she said no Beyonce was the backup.

I always said she should've done Eurovision 2019 that era and performed ARUTW

I really regret not paying a ton of attention to it while it was happening because it really was so massive.

A Met Gala theme right up her alley the same month she has a cameo for a movie about fashion. She also hasn't attended in 7 years. It's perfect timing so I'm not expecting her to jump on it.

Most successful to least successful Gaga albums:

1. The Fame/The Fame Monster

2. Born This Way

3. A Star is Born (OST)

4. MAYHEM

5. ARTPOP

6. Chromatica

7. Joanne
