This may be out of the blue or perhaps slightly out of context, but I just have to share this interview by SHOWstudio of Lady Gaga. It is quite long, though very wonderful for those of you who are interested in her or are interested in music, fashion, art, and/or visual culture. I believe that many people have misconceptions of Gaga as an artist and too, many people are prejudiced of who she is and what her ambitions and goals encompass. Though to be quite frank, I am completely inspired by her and am publicly and loudly a fan and follower of her work. As someone who studies art and visual culture, Lady Gaga is an active member of our contemporary culture and I take complete, almost obsessive interest in her impact upon our media and visual culture, with her involvement in artist collectives, and in her mission as a solo artist, as she is revolutionary, at least in my eyes. Too, she is a very articulate, well-educated, intelligent and quite eloquent individual for whom I have the utmost respect. After watching this interview and upon reflection, I realize that I am so extremely passionate about art and visual culture- especially through the lens of Gaga. It's not even funny!!!!! I am so happy and fortunate to have studied in my undergraduate years what I am truly passionate about and what I will continue to study and research throughout my life.
