Howard Stern vs Lady GaGa

I know Howard Stern has a reputation of demeaning women, being repulsive, sexist, disgusting, but those are words and phrases spoken by people that probably don't listen or know too much about him. Truth is, he's a self loathing, insecure savant that constantly strives to decimate his competition by creating an original and entertaining 3 hour show that is based on honest discourse and in his words, "exposes hypocrisy." Personally, I love Howard Stern. He's an undeniable genius. He, year after year, pulls the best, the most interesting, the most raw and honest emotions out of everyone he interviews. Earlier this year, he had Billy Joel on and I was in a trance for an hour. Today, it was Lady GaGa. I've never been a huge fan, but I listened to this entire 90 minute interview this morning and was so captivated, I couldn't get out of my car. I've always found her over-the-top showmanship a little indulgent, but this interview, coupled with two ridiculously emotional and riveting performances, completely changed my mind. If you don't have 90 minutes, fast forward to 66:00 for her songs. If you don't have Sirius, subscribe to Howard Stern on your smart phone through the Sirius app. It will instantly become the most interesting three hours of your day. I hope you enjoy this interview as much as I did.

Lady GaGa appears on the Howard Stern Show by gaganewsdotcom

White cotton, check. Blood, check. Noooo, surely that's not the metaphor she was going for...

Lady GaGa is exactly what she strives to be, an enigma. I mean, I guess she's talented, but her over-the-top antics seem too contrived. After a while, they become originality's antagonist and it gets annoying. At first, especially before Alexander McQueen decided to check himself out, her costumes built her mystique. Then he hung himself, she tried to continue, unsuccessfully might I add, and it simply hasn't been the same(see meat dress). I find her music hit or miss. She can sing without a doubt. When I'm with my gay friends in the club it's awesome, but then again, so is Cher, since that's the only two artists ever played. I don't know, I just think she's kind of fading into sad reality of every pop star's worst nightmare, apathy and anonymity. Speaking of apathy, I don't really care either way what happens to her career, but I can't imagine paying the exorbiant prices she asks for her concert tickets while she goes on stage dressed as a menstrual cycle.
