Music video: Lady Gaga - Born this way

Written by / 10 comments

I liked the energy Lady Gaga had when she was dancing, because there was a sense of freeness and spontaneity about it. In fact there was a sense of freeness about Lady Gaga in every scene in this video, and as a result I felt she came through as a person you could actually connect with in this video, as opposed to this untouchable figure that she came across us in past music videos. I could be completely wrong, or Lady Gaga is the best of actresses. But I got the sense she wasn't trying to put on as much of an act and showing more of her true self. Despite Lady Gaga opening up more in this video, I still feel it was a crap video. We could have done without the intro, and the video hit a point where it seemed like neither Lady Gaga nor Nick Knight knew what direction they wanted to take the theme or the narrative.

And you know that I have to go and take it there folks. Britney - 2. Lady Gaga - 0
