Most of time I hear: "She wore meat!"
"She has a penis!"
"She's a freak!"
"Her outfits are crazy!"
But what hurts me the most is when someone takes "I don't like her. . ." and sticks one of the above comments to end of it.
Let's clear up those 4 points real quick.
• She wore meat -- Yes, and do you know the publicity she gained from it?
• She has a penis -- Since when do your genitals become part of your personality, or even your music career?
• She's a freak -- No, she's unique.
• Her outfits are crazy -- Her outfits are straight from her imagination, something of which many people to find again. Most of the time, her outfits have a story behind them. Learn them.
None of this should decide your opinion of Stefani. You gain an opinion of someone not from looks, what he or she wears, or what is concealed in his or her pants. It is gained from the person behind all that is visible to the eye. To like someone, you must feel with your heart.
"Don't judge a book by its cover," is an old saying that people now-in-days use quite often. Yet the ones using the saying, are the ones are judging Lady GaGa. Hypocritical? Yes, very.
The most thing I hear out of nearly everyones' mouth, including my best friends', is that Stefani has a penis. I'm just sit there screaming in my head, "I don't care! What does that have to do with her music or personality?!" Really, it gets on my nerves.
Then people like to bring up that she's bisexual. Once again, I'm thinking what does that have to do with her music? Do you ever hear her plainly, as clear as day say in any of her songs that she likes women? No? I didn't think so.
Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, better known worldly by her stage name, Lady GaGa, is a fantastic person. Crazy clothing, penis, bisexuality or not, she cares for and loves her fans like a mother would love her child. This is why we call her Mother Monster. If she could, she’d take care of all of us; she’d sing to us until we fell asleep, she’d tuck us into bed at night, and turn on the night light so we feel safe. And when we were scared, she’d happily, like a mother would, allow us to sleep in bed with her where we would feel like nothing could hurt us.
GaGa cares deeply about all of her little monsters; she wouldn’t be where she is today is it wasn’t for all of us. Her fans, in my opinion, are the sweetest group of people in the world; they don’t look at GaGa and think “wow, she’s just.. wow, very strange,” no, they see her and are inspired. They love her individuality. They fall in love with her music. They fall in love with the emotion and determination she puts into the lyrics. They love everything about her. To her fans, GaGa is their voice, their inspiration, their mother, their reason to go outside, take in a deep breath of air, and believe that anything can happen, that they can be happy with themselves and know that dreams come true.
GaGa, to me, seems to put her arm around you to comfort you. When you have a struggle, she’s right there with you to take it on. When you are standing up for something, she’s right there with you, hand-in-hand, ready to stand up for what you believe in. When you’re being knocked down, she’ll fight for you. She wants to make you feel like you belong in this world and make you feel good about yourself.
I love Lady GaGa. She is my favorite artist, and the biggest inspiration to me. Not because of her music, but because of who she is. She’s caring, she’s loving, she encourages everyone to chase their dreams and never give up. She even wants to help us know that we were put on Earth for a reason. So yes, she did wear meat. And yes, her outfits are quite whacky. And yes, she may have a penis. And yes, she is and forever will be our Mother Monster. And yes, she will continue to write music. And yes, I, as well as all my fellow little monsters, will be following her all the way.
If you don’t like Stefani, don’t not like her because of what’s on the outside or the gender of the people she may love. Consider her personality above all else. If you don’t like it, that’s fine. But never judge people by what’s on the outside. If that were the case, some of the most beautiful, talented, and extraordinary people in history wouldn’t have been recognized. Never look at someone and judge them by their appearance. If you do, you may be missing out on one of the greatest persons you’ll ever know.
