well the entire mainstream media, and her fans take her as serious as I do.. in fact so does:

 

Queen

Elton John

Yoko Ono

Grace Jones

Britney Spears

And...Madonna..

Last I czeched, she's a Grace Jones ripoff and Grace Jones knows it.  So when she asked Grace Jones to do a duet, she said hell no, because she doesn't work with no-talent hacks that are ripping off her own outfits from 20-30 years ago.  I think I posted the interview where Grace said that in one of your previous gushing-for-Gaga threads.


no talent hack? Yikes.. And well grace jones is one of her inspirations.. and she isn't ripping off anyone

show me a video of grace jones doing this same thing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0Utc9VWvig

and I'll call her a rip off.

Doing what?  Playing "Bad Romance" and "Alejandro" on American Idol?  No, you're right.  Grace Jones never did that.

What's original about that performance?  She starts out with the old hit, segues into the new single, takes her clothes off, dances around, and plays a little piano.  That's what... everybody else does.  I honestly can't think of why you chose that clip.  It's just a random performance like any other by her or any other big pop star.  If it was David Bowie he'd be doing the same shit, but he'd also play guitar and saxophone and maybe do some moonwalking or some mime.

 

What do you know by Grace Jones?  Favorite song or album or outfit or photo?

The whole... Gaga image... of avant-garde mostly naked in-your-face fashion... comes from Grace Jones.  And Gaga has catching up to do.
