Man up, Gaga!

"My whole life is a performance, and it's about pushing the boundaries of pop culture and for myself, deciding where the stage begins and ends, not allowing anyone else [to tell] me when or how I can perform" - Lady Gaga

How quickly she went from Fantastic straight down to PLASTIC! At the VMA's overnight, Gaga dressed up as her alter ego and rocked it out with Queen's Brian May in a strange, self indulgent performance that left fans confused, feeling awkward and the celebs miffed. Watching a small clip from it, the performance is confusing and baffling, with her new character being this weird mix of Travolta's Danny Zuko from Grease and a mid teen Michael Jackson, with the white socks and killer dance moves. None of worked as a whole, with my opinion that Gaga works better in her own gender and mad style. Fans screamed for Gaga when she/he appeared, but by the time she fell off the piano at the end, the crowd seemed less than enthused. I think this is just too weird and we aren't ready for this quite yet.
