In the wikipedia entry next to “not getting it” there should be a link to this article by 63 year old Camille Paglia about Lady Gaga. Camille is so obviously ensconced and blinded by the pop culture of the era she identifies with—Madonna and the 80’s—that she can’t see past her own nose. No one has to like everything, but to pout on the internet when you so obviously don’t understand someone is pretty sad:
Gaga’s fans are marooned in a global technocracy of fancy gadgets but emotional poverty. Borderlines have been blurred between public and private: reality TV shows multiply, cell phone conversations blare everywhere; secrets are heedlessly blabbed on Facebook and Twitter. Hence, Gaga gratuitously natters on about her vagina…
Kids these days and their facebooks and twitters and lady gaga wahhhhhhh…
