When she kicked off the HoG press tour, she revealed that very thing. “Stef” (as she’d likely be known) would probably stand by the office photocopier in her favorite sky-high stripper heels and wear the meat dress to “dress-down Fridays.” But what was Gaga’s plan B if she hadn’t become the triple threat she is today? When Gaga spent the day working as a barista at Starbucks, it launched a million memes because it’s very hard to imagine her doing a “normal” job. Because when Gaga embarks on a press tour, the only certainty is that we’re about to be entertained.
Drunk or dead ridiculousness movie#
(Who can forget Fame Monster–era Gaga explaining to a bewildered Barbara Walters what “bluffin’ with my muffin” meant?) In an era where movie promos in particular can feel staged, stale, and oddly manipulative, standing out without being annoying isn’t easy-just ask Will and Jada Pinkett Smith.Īre her farcical stories even true? Maybe not. She honed this art while promoting her music, dropping a different detail in every interview, from the provocative to the outright bizarre. Lady Gaga has always been an outlandish performer, and clearly an unforgettable interview is part of her act. The promo tour has been more entertaining than the film-and seeing as HoG was described as “ a glossy, glorious mess” and a “ titillating, ridiculous, and utterly engrossing soap opera,” that’s really saying something. Gaga’s awards-season press has centered on her increasingly elaborate Method acting stories.
Reggiani, a glamorous Italian socialite, was convicted of arranging the murder of her former husband, Maurizio Gucci, played by Adam Driver, in 1995. Germanotta is on the Oscar hunt once again for her portrayal of Patrizia Reggiani in Ridley Scott’s House of Gucci. Now we’re witnessing the return of the Gaga press tour in all its glory. (They walked so Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain could run.) No one in recent history has shown more finesse than after Gaga single-handedly turned “There can be 100 people in a room and 99 of them don’t believe in you, but all it takes is one!” into a meme and pop-cultural proverb. On the awards-season campaign trail, she and Bradley Cooper reignited the “showmance” as a promotion tool. If there were an Oscar for Best Actress in a Promoting Role, Gaga would have surely won for A Star Is Born in 2019. A Lady Gaga press tour has become one of Hollywood’s most enthralling, chaotic, and (occasionally) excruciating spectacles.
And what happens onscreen is only half the fun. When Lady Gaga stars in a movie, everyone knows about it.
