A 2009 interview with Lady Gaga about feminism, sexuality, fame, etc.

Here is something to consider, are artists today becoming products of cultural thievery? From Madonna to Lady Gaga their use of clothing such as scarfs covering their faces, essentially mimicking certain cultural religions. For instance Lady Gaga's recent fashion statement is reminiscent of the Burka which is religiously worn by Muslim and Islamic females. She even has a song called 'Burqa', whether this is offensive or artistic is yet to be determined. On the other hand younger generations like Miley Cyrus appropriates the black culture and Selena Gomez is inspired by the bindi wearing, arabian dress look. <br /> Are these artists using other cultures for attention and promoting their fame or is it just a gimmick?

An interesting article on Britney Spears tabloid fame and new her new Las Vegas residency.

The world has taken note on Miley Cyrus's continuous reign of fame. Really interesting article about smart pr steps Miley has taken for herself and her new album promo.

I guess Miley has some new photos out that are pretty risque.  This post just writes about how Miley is all about the controversy and getting people to talk about her.

I agree with the post, i guess is easy to say that Miley is always fame hungry and wants people to talk about her. But surely if people keep talking about her won't they just get bored.

There's a new rumor spreading around about Miley Cyrus: Apparently, Cyrus has been dating Theo Wenner (an ex-boyfriend of Liv Tyler) since summertime. While this article doesn't necessarily deny nor confirm the rumor, the author does make a point of acknowledging a friendship between the two. I don't know about you guys, but personally, I'd be impressed if they really have been dating and getting away with it staying under wraps for so long; ergo, I doubt the rumor is true. Still, it's possible!

I feel like Miley Cyrus would let people belive anything if it maintained her publicity. I think she would do little to confirm or deny rumours such as these as they allow her to remain in the spot light. I think it is a shame that she is becoming more artifical everyday and making music is no longer her number one prority; being in the spotlight for any reason now appears to be her claim to fame.

I find it interesting that PETA is criticizing Perry for her use of animals, although she had done it safely, when they are free and willing to sexualize women as if it wasn't harming gender.

I have to disagree with you here I think this is terrible that Katy perry would agree to do this. The article is correct when it says animal acting is abusive, and stressful on any animal. I feel like Katy Perry put her fame and success over the welfare of animals because she is not only condoning animal acting she is promoting it as safe. Can you tell me more about how PETA are willing to sexualize women are you referring to the naked campaigns?
