Lady Gaga has grown on me over the years but still not as good as the Ann Margret/Guzzi video.

Thanks for sharing

I am curious, what prompted a non Lady Gaga fan to watch the music video and later saw a guzzi in the scene?  :grin:

A co-worker pointed out these "jugs" in the video as he thought he had seen some like them in the parking lot.

I can't get past the made-up name and the slut culture these bimbos are promoting.  Bad role models.

I think a Guzzi ad made from outtakes of this video could sell more bikes than Ewan MacGregor's musings about the brand!

I found Gaga repellent in the Super Bowl. (Not rappellent, ha ha.) Even more than in her old meat dress.

I don't follow this stuff, and don't like what I've seen of her persona, but she cuts a good figure on a Guzzi.

Go figure.

WTF? ARE YOU SERIOUS?

Where do you get that? From that video??? That would seem the most shallow surface analysis of the song or video possible.

I'm not particularly into her music or much anything pop, but there is a hell of a lot more behind her image and her music then is seen at a glance.

The song in question is an analysis of a relationship, and likely the potential toxic effects of one. It's an analysis of the attraction many girls have to a bad boy or "real man".

The video certainly doesn't seem to be pushing any sexual agenda.

Now if we're shallowly reacting to just the images (how she's dressed or how she is dancing) there are far more overtly sexual images in pop culture.

But I'd say if anything what I've seen of her image it's one with a message of feminist empowerment which is pretty much an F U to the attitude of "slut culture" which is really a mysoginist and archaic attitude that applauds men for their sexual "conquests" while attempting to shame women for any sign of their sexuality.

From what I understand Lady Gaga is a talented professional with an extreme work ethic and an attitude of inclusion. A woman who once suffered from body image disorders and who supports youth truth charitable works for homeless youth, mental disorders, LGBT causes, and special Olympics.

WTF ALL THAT has to do with "slut culture" I'll be f'd if I can see.

My comment was about the genre, not any particular video.  I stated my opinion clearly, but I'll restate it:  I think the current pop culture promotes slutty sexualization.  No need to carpet - F-bomb me about it.

And there's a big difference between feminism and sexualization.  Not even in the same discussion.

Well I have a problem with the mysoginist aspect of the very term "slut culture". It's about as one-sided as "rape culture."

That said you clearly included this video and more broadly Lady Gaga with the equally unfair characterization "these bimbos are promoting" and "bad role models".

I think it's unfair to include her in this.

I can't see how she's a bad role model for strong women.
