I was reading an article and it stated that Lady Gaga’s parents are her biggest supporters when her and her mother Cynthia Germanotta were said to Oprah Winfrey in an exclusive one-on-one interview. This was on Oprah’s Winfrey’s Network on Sunday. This is a coincidence since our parents are usually our biggest fans, but what kind of influence is there in this mother daughter relationship when Lady Gaga is an incredible singer, but horrible role model for kids and teenagers. I know my mother would be appalled if I acted like Lady Gaga. Lady Gaga is such a huge icon right now and it would be wonderful if she can become the role model for the younger children.
When Lady Gaga's parents attended one of her shows when she was still an unsigned artist, they were shocked by what they saw on stage.
Very understandable to get parents or the father to say she has a screw loose because she is an intelligent woman to get everyone’s attention and publicity. She has the attention of everyone like on Twitter, she has the most followers. She knows the name of the game for promoting herself. Good for her. All the things she does gets a rise out of the papers which is the best publicity you can get to become a more recognized icon.
It is very understandable that her father stated below. "When she was performing at Joe's Pub downtown, she was in a bikini and performing with Lady Starlight and they started to light hairspray on fire," Cynthia explained. "Some people left. Her father, … he actually said, 'I think she has a screw loose.'"
Gaga's parents now understand what they say is her artistic vision when it is just a publicity stunt that shows how the crazier you act, the more support from fans you get, which brings in more money. It seems as though everyone is looking to see what she does next. That is what makes her a very interesting woman.
Gaga said her father, Joe, was with her when she wrote many of her songs. He was sitting next to her at the piano when she penned her 2011 hit "The Edge Of Glory," a song about his father who was dying. This doesn’t surprise me because of most singers’ songs are from personal experience and they have more heart put into the song when it is about your life experiences.
"It was me, my father and a big bottle of Agave Tequila," Gaga said. "My grandfather was on the last leg of his life. I knew my dad was just so sad … I told my dad, 'Don't be sad. He's on the edge of a glorious moment of life.'" This is a time to embrace what you had in life and for her family to be there for him when he passes away.
Cynthia initially struggled with her daughter divulging such personal information on stage. "I used to not like her being so open," she said. "We've talked about that. She would talk about very private things. But now, I get it. It makes sense. Everybody feels connected and strong." People do feel connected and strong but also brings out an artists best moments to become the icon Lady Gaga has become. The people who become the most famous are the ones where everyone knows the deepest secrets about them.
Cynthia however admitted that she loved Gaga's MTV Video Music Awards meat dress and red carpet arrival in an egg. I actually don’t understand this, but again it is the publicity she received because she was on the cover of many magazines and talked about all over the news. She wouldn’t have much to talk about if she just walked in with just a dress. You have to love Lady Gaga for her individuality.
