Hair New Era

I have conflicting feelings towards Lady Gaga. After hearing “Poker Face” and “Paparazzi” on Gossip Girl they went straight to my Top 25 most listened. Then she became famous and I thought her style was really original. Cute, right? Amazing. I love it! Um… okay. Uh, no. Right. I didn’t get the whole “She’s not wearing any trousers! Oh my God, put something on!” thing, but not wearing a shirt either is taking it a bit too far. There is something disturbing about meeting your underage fans in what is essentially underwear.
The problem is that everything devalues over time. If you want to keep shocking then you have to go a bit further every time. Pictures from thesuperficial.com
But her songs are seriously catchy. And that’s the thing: she’s talented, she doesn’t need to look ridiculous every time she leaves the house just to be noticed.
Some of her crazy outfits actually look good, though. They’re like art. But art shouldn’t be worn when you’re giving an interview or out on the town. Art belongs in a museum, on the runway, possibly also on the stage, and obviously in a book.
Which is why I was thrilled to find out that The Book of Gaga has been published. This seems like the coolest coffee table book ever. Too bad it was only available in the Super Deluxe "The Fame Monster" Pack which among other things also contained a paper doll collection(!) and a lock of Lady Gaga’s hair(…).
Here are some scans from the book:

And there are supposed to be photos by David LaChapelle in there! Here are a few examples:Pictures from werehavinamoment.blogspot.com
