Lady Gaga or Madonna, which is better?
Both pop icons are presented in Chile with only a few weeks apart and here we describe some of their most similar aspects.
the media speak of resounding success and blah blah blah ... but the truth is that commercially the show of the "Bad Romance" interpreter was a failure. Last minute offers marked the days before the show of the American artist, making it clear that in these lands, Lady Gaga is not as popular as it is believed.
The same tortuous path is living the Madonna show. The third presentation of the "Queen of Pop" in Santiago has not attracted the expected attention and ticket sales have been slow. The production companies no longer know who else to blame and insist on taking responsibility for the absurdly high ticket values.
In the case of Lady Gaga, this is her first presentation in Chile and although she arrives at the pinnacle of her career and with her most ambitious tour, she did not really manage to generate something that could be called a phenomenon and that has turned the show into a commercial success. . Obviously the comparisons can be unfair, taking into account the journey of both interpreters, but it must be taken into account that the complete tour of Lady Gaga in South America was not what was expected, and that finally the quirky interpreter of "Alejandro" it's bigger on social media than it is out here, in the real world.
Beyond the number of tickets dispatched, last night's show met the expectations of those fans of the artist who call themselves “Little Monsters” and the casual public who liked to go to see a proper disposable pop music show.
Madonna or Lady Gaga?
Perhaps it makes no sense to compare these two artists since their coexistence does not tell you much, but the truth is that Lady Gaga is the closest thing to Madonna that has ever emerged in the world of pop music and nobody seems to give credit of that.
Both Madonna and Lady Gaga have built their careers around catchy, ultra-danceable pop music. However, it is themselves as quirky icons that have prevailed even over their songs. Anyone who has lived through the eighties or nineties will know that the formula occupied by Lady Gaga today is an almost exact replica of the insolence of that young Madonna who exploited her sexual side to the extreme. At the time the "material girl" turned to the sexual, something that Lady Gaga does today but based on extravagance and bad taste.
In short, I believe that Lady Gaga is indeed bigger in social networks and in the heads of her fans than in reality itself, as well as that Madonna will never be at the level of her golden age and that this eternal renewal tires even the most staunch fanatic. .
