I love the Lady just as much as any other gay man. It’s time to get “real” for a second though. I’m going to have to say “no no” to the upcoming Lady Gaga biography. These 288 pages may detail the life know to us as Gaga, but they are screaming for your money. Writing Gaga’s biography at this point in time is equivalent to writing Obama’s biography before the end of his Presidency. Like her or not she is the reigning Queen of Pop/Gays/Teens/, but her reign has just begun. This book is a product of her fame. A product of capitalism. A product of greed. A product of Lady Gaga.
Summing it up…this book is nothing special.
Gaga fans will buy it. True Gaga fans won’t buy it. Real Gaga fans will sleep with it.
I love to see a autobiography though.

Hey, sweetpea
I’m just going to be a little jerk, don’t mind me.
This biography is a product of The Overlook Press. They’ve been making unofficial biographies of various musicians and bands for years (I remember being in seventh grade and almost buying an AFI one). The content of it is just somewhat coherently cut-up information from interviews and statistics in a way that people will be foolish enough to purchase it. It is in no way officially connected to Lady GaGa, and hopefully, fans will be intelligent enough to not waste money on it.
It’s pretty much like the small biographies you see in the children’s section of libraries. They have biographies for anyone that is in the spotlight that might not need a biography in the first place. I personally find Adam Lambert’s exceptionally hilarious. The ways the writer tries to find words to not outright say gay and I just kept cracking up.

I whole-heartedly agree about the autobiography. I would love to see what Gaga herself has to say about all this. She’s amazing and I bet her book would be too

Totally could have gotten a better picture of my queen.
