To her credit, this was far and away the best guest performance to have ever taken place on the AI stage. Yes, I watched.

Money NOW vs Exposure = More Money in the Long Term

TRANSLATION:
*On one hand she had two sellout shows @ 930 club. $crilla!!!

VS

*An appearance on American Idol which could substantially increase her profile in the States and lead to more downloads/album sales and eventually more sold out shows in future. (Plus, she was probably paid a fee to appear on the show).

Same thing happened w/Spoon when they canceled some shows to fly to NYC last minute and play Saturday Night Live.
Sucks for the fans, though….

was this a giant trainwreck or is it just the fact that it is recorded on a cameraphone?

i dont like taking pleasure in other’s misery but if she was garbled as it seems then VICTORY IS OURS SOMEHOW

A lot of people think this is truly the beginning of the end for American Idol.

it wasn’t awful, but it wasn’t great. my friends’ five year old son loves that song. he was in bed, but they recorded it for his viewing pleasure later.

She’s a vapid untalented shallow hack. Who cares where it performs?

What is it about lady gaga that everyone finds so interesting? is it the faux neo-soul singing or the outfits borrowed from Charlize Theron when she was on Arrested Development?

Disgustingly bad, just like her DC shows would have been.

Michael Says:

Hopefully she’ll be about as relevant as the Darkness was a year after their tour here.

Which is to say: not at all. Where all you Darkness fans at? Can I get a shout out?

Suckers.

You’re waaaay too gay to understand The Darkness. You shouldn’t even try.

Cale Says:

Michael – not sure if The Darkness really proves your point since they sort of disbanded cause the singer went into rehab and quit.

Ah, Lady Gaga. I knew there would be a discussion. Why? Acts such as she suck. As probably did Darkness. What we need is far superior performers to discuss.
