Teen Commits Suicide Due to Bullying

[FlyingJesus]

Probably, but I don't. However I also don't see how anything but good can come out of her efforts.

Then you're obviously not aware of how law works. If someone comes up with a half-baked plan to stop bullying that gets laughed out of the courts then anyone with serious and workable ideas on how to tackle such a problem (if such ideas can truly be made) will have a much harder time getting themselves heard. It's like when you're winning an argument and suddenly some kid who agrees with you starts screaming abuse at the opposition - it makes you look like you're losing the debate even if you were well ahead before the latest occurrences. Gaga is not the goddess of the downtrodden, she's the little mousey girl telling you it'll be alright while your head's down the toilet.

Regardless, you cannot deny that it wasn't a lovely tribute and a beautiful way to honour the kid who committed suicide

Yeah the record company love their promotional techniques, I bet they wish kids died more often!

Aside from the politics, her campaigning is going to do nothing but positive things.

are you serious

Highly, her image is designed around reasoning with controversial matters and always had been. If you think any inch of this comes from Lady Gaga brain herself then you're highly mistaken, she was an image created to gain an audience by a record label and they promoted her through controversy.

Yet the politics are the only thing that could possibly have a real effect, and as I explained before this crusade of hers is only going to damage that. Not sure what positives you think can come of making a mockery of the entire affair.

Accipiter you have a very archaic view of the pop world if you think the labels still control their people that heavily

[Accipiter]

She's a money maker, that is all. Personally I find her songs poor and only famous due to lots of promotion.

I would love it if one day people would learn the difference between opinion and fact. I don't like AC/DC but I don't go around telling people they murder cows at the behest of their management and that they're only famous because someone made a poster for them

It's an opinion, but why oh why does Lady Gaga tend to be a silent type 100% of the time until speaking out about something controversial, it comes across false and created.

In my eyes her personality looks like its fed from the record label because she's always silent when being spoken to alone (From what i've seen of her)

I'm glad you took the time to tell me that though there is no real evidence to prove that, so I'm afraid your cynicism concerning pop music isn't going to achieve much here. Anyway, either way I couldn't care because I like her music, performances, message etc so I couldn't really care less if it came from her (which it clearly does) or a group of men in suits...

Well clearly we just disagree entirely

Lady Gaga is a silent type!? hahahahahaha, that's a good one
