I'm realizing something new watching this 12 years later. She definitely and intententionally made the decision to have, "No matter gay, straight or bi, lesbian, transgender life," be the pinnacle of this performance. She's literally on the top of the stage. Belting these words. And has a church organ blasting. Like this performance feels like yesterday but this took place during the marriage equality era in the U.S. For that I am thankful. For Lady Gaga, I am thankful.
All of what you mentioned is disgusting. Gays are disgusting that men are made for women and women are made for men and there is nothing scientifically called hormones that make you gay stop being so stupid and think about it
The whole thing is perfect, but everything from"Don't be a drag / just be a queen" onwards is iconic-queer brilliance - she's absolutely Mother Monster here.
Life lesson #1: Do not watch a Gaga performance on RUclips without ample enough time to also watch 20+ other Gaga performances with completely different concepts. What a beautifully talented human and LEGEND.
Not really. Like she encouraged a lot of people but she didn’t save an entire generation that’s a huge stretch to say that. I’m a queer person and an SA survivor who absolutely was NOT saved by lady Gaga nor was anyone else in my community who aren’t Gaga stans. I’m like the only even casual fan in my local queer community. She certainly touched a LARGE part of a generation and had a huge influence on music fashion and culture but she didn’t save a generation at all or anywhere near even if she did save a LOT of her fans
i wish when i was a teenager there was a person like her, but i was born too late, and I'm not seeing anyone would reach her high yet, really sad time we are at right now:(.
@@mikopo88 I used myself AND my immediate surround communit an example because it's a pretty standard real life sample of the generation in question and therefore a simple way to explain it. Its not about me feeling "more special" (I don't? Srsly wtf are you projecting?) and that's an absurd thing to read into my comment, and a deliberately incorrect way to interpret what I said. The point is, she didn't save a whole generation. I didn't say we should discount or disregard ANY of her achievements, support or activism - I quite explicitly praised her for all of that. All I said was that it's a fkn huuuuge over statement to claim she saved a whole generation when she didn't, and she's not even known by an entire generation let alone is an entire generation invested enough in her to feel saved by her. She certainly must have saved a LOT of lives, to the point where she is probably often told stiff like "having you as a role model growing up saved my life" but there's a whole massassssssiiiiivvveee chunk of that same generation of queer kids who didn't listen to her music, knew almost nothing about her or even actively disliked her who would state their role rodels as entirely different queer figures who were prominent at the time. She was massive, she saved lives, she advocated for the queer community and SA survivors and she deserves praise and thanks. But she didn't save a whole entire generation of people from otherwise meeting imminent death or a horrible fate. My point is that I think over exaggerating her impact and achievements with hyperbole is actually a huge disservice and discredit to what she has actually done. What she has done doesn't need to be wildly over exaggerated to still be insanely important and worthy of being part of history, and I think that it actually kind of shits on what she actually has achieved when people feel the need to over exaggerate it, it makes it sound like they don't view the straight plane facts as extraordinary enough on their own. there are billions of people on earth and most weren't impacted by her even one iota, not even a tiny bit, BUT she did make a lasting a history making impression on enough to be a global influence and she did save the lives of many of her die hard fans all over the world. Its that simple of a thing that im stating and you completely twisted my words because it wasn't just a comment saying "omfg yassss gaga is mother slaaaay" Like your brain can't comprehend an even slightly nuanced, reasonably stated balanced fact. I didn't say anything remotely hateful or shit on her in any way ffs you just can't read more than two sentences without getting overwhelmed and confused
when she straight up SAID the words and didn’t beat around the bush like most artists would, the world was too shook to respond. nothing but respect ✊🏻
Who are these people who underestimate her singing? I've never met anyone who said she can't sing. If anything, she is very much recognized for her singing abilities.
@@sarac.3568 wow you're lucky! Since I was 4 (when she became famous, 2008) I've heard thousands of times that Gaga can't sing! I still hear it nowadays but it's very rare.
Her arriving in the vessel as a metaphor for being reborn when you start loving yourself will always be one of the most iconic moments in the history of Pop, no matter what anyone could say... this is pure art here.

@@gabvulpes This Grammy Awards show was in February of 2011. She turned 35 this March. So 10 years ago during the time of this Grammys she would have been 24 about to turn 25 the following month.

One of the toughest performance in Grammy history. Dance a lot in insane heels. maintain breath and take out tough head voice which required relax body

The fact that she is high heels... The fact that she is singing and dancing, playing piano... The fact that we are ending 2022 and this is still ICONIC... LOVE YOU GAGA ARTIST OF THE DECADES
The first time she ascended those stairs, slammed that church organ, and sang "NO MATTER GAY STRAIGHT OR BI LESBIAN TRANSGENDER LIFE" lemme tell you I was REBORN.
I sang this song to my Aspie (Asperger's/hfAutism) son when he was young and I had to teach him about music!! God makes no mistakes. BTW...he loves music now at 17.
An actual icon in pop music, her impact can't be denied. I was in elementary school during her peak of stardom, and I remember everyone was always anxious to see what Gaga was going to do next. What crazy outfit was she going to wear on the red carpet? What would her new music video be? What would be her next hit single? Truly an artist who can sing beautifully, write quality, original music, and put on a performance.
kamila Ford You were in elementary school at the peak of her career??? That would make you... holy shit that would make you almost a young adult now. I'm old
How is that even possible ??? Dancing while singing live and singing exactly like the studio version ?!?! And all this creativity in this performance omg .... SHE IS AN ICON
still one of the best performances ever! the alien concept, the outfits, the prosthetics, the hair flips, the head piano, everything is perfect! no one does it like her, she's really ahead of her time.
@@terry2843 The truthful lyrics for the gaga song: born this way: The lyrics should be like this: there is a problem about who we are, we live with sinful nature. We all are called to REPENTANCE, to change our minds and our hearts. We all are called back HOME, but PRIDE keeps us far. So lets humble ourselves before GOD/CHRIST and lets answer to the calling. I have sinned and felled short in the glory of GOD and without repenting i am at the wrong path. How can we ask for love if there is none in us, we abuse ourselves and others daily. How can say we`re good if only do is sin, we telling lies, stealing lives, and destroying the light. Yea we were born a sinner, lifelong sinful nature, but now we all are called to have new birth. Don`t stay a sinner, become a new creature in Christ who promise to give you a warm heart. Yea we were born sinners, but in Christ can we be brand new, without a sin of any kind. Be you black or white, small or great, GOD through Christ calls all home. Are we gonna answer or is our hearts grown cold? Our eyes and ears have we closed? Are we all lost cases or is there still a chance that some of us shall be saved? If we could change our lives, would we took the chance? Or are we quick to say: “no, thanks, im good”?
"Born This Way" is awesome. I really wish it would have come out when I was young. I'm 61 and absolutely LOVE this song. It gives me hope! It gives me pride! All my life I have felt unworthy of love and/or respect. This song woke something in me and today I am stronger than I would have ever been. Thank You, Lady Gaga. I, and many many many others, love you for showing us the way.
@Bruce, yes!! So happy to read that, I have felt the same since I listened to this song first time she sang it at the Grammys, it's really an inspiring song! Peace and love to you all!
This performance always brings me to tears. Looking back 11 years ago this being performed at the Grammys was such a history changer. She helped a lot of people feel more loved than they were before. Of course it didn’t fix everything but she opened everyone with open arms no matter who you are and that is just so emotional for me. Everyone deserves to be happy and loved
When are you comeing back to finish the telephone we are your little MONSTER gaga gaga i like to hear for you thank you ps your music is brilliant gaga ❤❤
watching this as a teenager when you're still trying to figure yourself out, this song was the hug I needed back then, made me feel like i trutly belong and there's nothing wrong with me. thank you forever gaga ♥
This is the most Iconic Grammy Perfomance! I just rewatched it again, and giving me goosbumps...joy of of tears..... Lady Gaga made my teenage time so meaningful!
nice try, all what you said even a B-rated singer can archieve haahahahahaha So gaga's just on that level??? where is her top 10 billboard 100? where is Perfect illusion on the chart? where is million reasons ? #64 or #85? where are 100M views for 2 new MVs? LOL =))))))))) SHE'S FLOP AS FUCK. dont try to deny it, poor you
Anh Tuấn b rated singer oh please no b rated singer can get 12 world records 300 awards 6 grammys 1 golden globe sold more than 300 million records sold more than 45 million albums ww!!!just shut the fuck up and accept the truth that gaga is still slaying!!
Honestly.. I will always love lady Gaga.. because when I didn't think I was beautiful, when I felt like I was a waste of space, when I felt like I was abnormal, I felt like she was the only one there for me and through her music I was able to be myself, and accept myself, and love myself. I will always love her.
This is EPIC. She is already a legend . Gaga changed the industry ... she showed us fashion, eccentricity and madness ... her voice is magnificent and her old songs are commercial but the lyrics are really good . She is an icon of pop music and I like to see her evolve and try with jazz ... love u Gaga
GAGA is one the Best Vocalist now. She ranked as an A+ Vocalist. her tone and techniques praised by Music Critics. SHE'S CAPABLE SINGING MELISMA, But she's not doing overly. Her Head Voice can be so thick and operatic, her low notes are so Dark and Full. Amd she can sing any Genre and slay it. Must watch her sound of music and national anthem's covers,etc. and btw her national anthem cover is ranked one the best under whitney. :)
Hello,All American 🇺🇸 🇯🇵 When Born This Way remains at number one for 10 consecutive weeks. At that time, the 3.11 earthquake hit Japan. When the situation calmed down, Gaga worried about Japan and came to Japan. We Japanese will never forget Gaga's kindness and courage.🙏 Thank you very much GAGA❤️
It’s amazing how what some people considered a “trendy artist” managed to stay relevant for so long. She’s like a chameleon in every sense of the word.
Shes a triple threat, incredible performer, amazing actress, and a social media sensation. She is always ahead of her time an instead of following trends she makes them. A fucking icon.
@Ares an award given by MTV VMA for mastering in three or more fields because Gaga is a musician, an actress, a fashion icon, and an activist. Tricon is so special because Gaga is the first awardee ever
Yess!! I think it’s also her continued support that also keeps all her fans here. Because yes she’s one of the best singers I’ve ever heard but ok personally I used to feel super connected and safe whenever I listened to her music as a kid. And now I’m older I now know I’m an enby lesbian but back then I had no clue. And yet some sub conscious part of my brain knew her music was going to be my safe/happy place for over the next 10+ yrs. I love Gaga and always will because her music helped me feel loved when my family didn’t ❤️🌈
lol. you would never see Madonna come out of an egg. I get it, I love them both. Seen Madonna in every concert since Re-Invention tour....she's great, gaga's great....they both are in their own way...plenty of room for both of them. Gaga gives you something darker, while Madonna gives you something with sex and class.
To me, this is THE performance of Gaga's career. I cried so hard at this because the gays and Gaga have had a connection since the beginning of her career. A lot of pop stars with primarily gay fan bases don't appreciate their gay fans as well. Gaga took it as a sign from the universe to make a revolutionary change, and she gave us so much loving promotion. Gaga was a big cause to the second huge LGBT revolution. Rupaul's Drag Race/Rupaul as a person becoming successful also helped solidify this change. We are witnessing history people! Gaga and Rupaul are making arts and the gays come to life. This will bring us into the new Romantic period, just like Ancient Greece was! This hopefully brings us to where all human beings on earth have full rights to be who they were meant to be.
Even 11 years out, this performance, this version of this song is my absolute favorite. Being a music major, the addition of the organ just makes me happy, but also the altered rythym for 'whether gay, straight, or bi, lesbian, trangender life' just gives me chills...Every. Damn. Time.
When the organ starts I collapse inside because I know what's coming. She gave me the confidence back then and still to this day to have a voice. Back story... My family watches the award shows every year and the fact that she made this statement changed my life because they saw a world famous musician tell the world to wake up and my family finally understood that day during the performance that I'm not an outcast.
This could’ve gone pretty bad but it was a superb performance that cemented her as a great visual artist with tremendous work ethic and talent What a time to be alive and see this performance live
Still till this day I will never understand how people dissed this woman for spreading a message for a community she is apart of, a community that wants nothing but peace. They called her weird, they told her no, but she didn’t back down, she and this performance is the definition of art and equality. I am so proud of how far she has come and the way she continues to persist and push forward. The media back 11 years ago was sooooo sexist, homophobic and could body shame who ever they pleased. (The media is still very much the same now). Regardless I believe the Born This Way album inspired so many people and pushed forward a bigger message, even now it empowers so many people race/sexuality/shape or size/gender etc. I love this woman so much for everything she has done for my friends and family apart of the LGBTQIA+ community and for my friends that are POC, so thank you Gaga for everything 🥰
It was an easy way for them to get people to ignore/dismiss what she actually said. "She's weird, ignore her!". All she ever preached was kindness, equality, and empowerment - they felt threatened so had to undermine her.
@@scottgessford7878 sure its mainly about the LGBTQIA+ community but it also clearly have lyrics regarding racial diversity. Being "born this way" refers to your skin colour, your gender, your sexuality, your diasbility status...
lumi 2 Yes!! many k-pop bands are telling you to love yourself, accept yourself for who you are and how you look because you are beautiful in your own way, to have confidence, and to not care what other people think about you. BTS’ leader, Kim Namjoon, was able to do a speech at UN and he said “no matter who you are, where you’re from, your skin color, your gender identity, just speak yourself ❤️.” BTS is telling you to love yourself for who you are, to speak yourself, have confidence, to be happy, and say it’s okay to not have dreams. MAMAMOO has a song and they performed it on a live award show, and the song is about having confidence and you don’t have to fit in. TWICE covered this song at a live performance , spreading awareness of this amazing song. (k-pop groups ^) A lot of k-pop groups do this and I am so happy to be a fan of it! I am also a Lady Gaga fan, and they both spread amazing messages 💜❤️.
Her breath control is insane. People don’t even realize how hard this is to do and sound good.
She is absolutely BADDASS 🤘 tho
Yes! And the fact that she's dancing makes it even more difficult

Gaga very underrated as a vocalist, she doesn't get enough credit in singing live, she honestly can out sing most of the artists of her time.
she would be successful in any era too as she can tap into many other genres pop, jazz, opera,etc who knows maybe will get a rock album from her
No shes not
SheMs not underrated at all, her vocals are just less shocking than her outfits, makeup, and stage personas.

The first time she ascended those stairs, slammed that church organ, and sang "NO MATTER GAY STRAIGHT OR BI LESBIAN TRANSGENDER LIFE" lemme tell you I was REBORN.
Gaga invented gay rights we Stan!
Same
i love that organ breakdown, and at the end the song really turns into a church coral. her mind
I got so many chills
I sang this song to my Aspie (Asperger's/hfAutism) son when he was young and I had to teach him about music!! God makes no mistakes. BTW...he loves music now at 17.
An actual icon in pop music, her impact can't be denied. I was in elementary school during her peak of stardom, and I remember everyone was always anxious to see what Gaga was going to do next. What crazy outfit was she going to wear on the red carpet? What would her new music video be? What would be her next hit single? Truly an artist who can sing beautifully, write quality, original music, and put on a performance.
I love this coment.
Holy Gaga kinney same omg
kamila Ford YAS
same for me when I was in high school here in the uk, everyone played just dance or poker face or their phones out loud or talk about her music videos
kamila Ford You were in elementary school at the peak of her career??? That would make you... holy shit that would make you almost a young adult now. I'm old
何年経ってもこの曲大好き
私の悩みをすっ飛ばしてくれる
この曲が何人の命を救ったんだろう
ガガに日本にファンいることを忘れてた, でもこの歌はたくさんの命を助かったおもいます♥
How is that even possible ??? Dancing while singing live and singing exactly like the studio version ?!?! And all this creativity in this performance omg .... SHE IS AN ICON
Duhitzniclaas she’s LIPSYNCHING
@@kojikaze8228 it's pretty obvious that she isn't but go off I guess
Ostentatious Meme Gal it was a JOKE. Clearly she’s not
She's definetely lipsynching at dancing parts
@@channe4558 i mean no- but you do you
still one of the best performances ever! the alien concept, the outfits, the prosthetics, the hair flips, the head piano, everything is perfect! no one does it like her, she's really ahead of her time.
thats why shes the queen im sorry for ever and always. no one is seeing her
@@terry2843 The truthful lyrics for the gaga song: born this way:
The lyrics should be like this:
there is a problem about who we are, we live with sinful nature.
We all are called to REPENTANCE, to change our minds and our hearts.
We all are called back HOME, but PRIDE keeps us far.
So lets humble ourselves before GOD/CHRIST and lets answer to the calling.
I have sinned and felled short in the glory of GOD and without repenting i am at the wrong path.
How can we ask for love if there is none in us, we abuse ourselves and others daily.
How can say we`re good if only do is sin, we telling lies, stealing lives, and destroying the light.
Yea we were born a sinner, lifelong sinful nature, but now we all are called to have new birth.
Don`t stay a sinner, become a new creature in Christ who promise to give you a warm heart.
Yea we were born sinners, but in Christ can we be brand new, without a sin of any kind.
Be you black or white, small or great, GOD through Christ calls all home.
Are we gonna answer or is our hearts grown cold? Our eyes and ears have we closed?
Are we all lost cases or is there still a chance that some of us shall be saved?
If we could change our lives, would we took the chance?
Or are we quick to say: “no, thanks, im good”?
@@terry2843 we could still see this performance in 2023. That's how timeless and iconic this performance is.
💖💖💖💖🎂🎂🎂
"Born This Way" is awesome. I really wish it would have come out when I was young. I'm 61 and absolutely LOVE this song. It gives me hope! It gives me pride! All my life I have felt unworthy of love and/or respect. This song woke something in me and today I am stronger than I would have ever been. Thank You, Lady Gaga. I, and many many many others, love you for showing us the way.
I truly hope you now realize how worthy you are. 💗👊👊✌✌
@Bruce, yes!! So happy to read that, I have felt the same since I listened to this song first time she sang it at the Grammys, it's really an inspiring song! Peace and love to you all!
That's wonderful!! Thanks for sharing this. I hope you have found people who love you and appreciate you for who you are : )
@Bruce
You’re valid and amazing 😉 ❤️😁
❤️
This performance always brings me to tears. Looking back 11 years ago this being performed at the Grammys was such a history changer. She helped a lot of people feel more loved than they were before. Of course it didn’t fix everything but she opened everyone with open arms no matter who you are and that is just so emotional for me. Everyone deserves to be happy and loved
I thought this era of music was trash, I didn't understand then. Now, regretted those days were pop music has real substance and deep meaning.
Many songs still have real meaning behind them. You just have to find them.
me too
Exactly
Me 2
I was thinking about the same as you did but I don't think pop has any deeper meaning.
She sang this in front of a bunch of homophobes and she’s powerful-
OMG Really??? Savage! She is Amazing!

Katty Kang she is of the few artists in the pop industry that could actually sing live so well
+ÁDC ÁDC Yea. Her and Beyoncé. They're my favorite live performers.
Every gaga era she made an iconic performance. Paparazzi, bad romance, born this way, and then applause. Forever the most iconic gaga song though.
***** Don't forget Bang Bang from CTC :D
***** She sang "You and I" at the VMAs. This was at the Grammy's
***** Which Bad Romance performance?
Odalis Uceta I was referring to the AMA performance where she combined bad romance and speechless.
***** Ikr, Cannot wait for her next era though, I have a feeling it's gonna be goooodddd jisagkjangailshgndalg
She changed my life.
9 years later I'm still pissed that she wasn't given a standing ovation for this performance
Most of the people were already standing 😂
okay, little over half a year, still pissed?

True datt!!! 👑
I was 15 when this came out, growing up as a gay person in a catholic city Gaga was my truly idol, this came when I needed it. Thx Gaga

Cool and all, but... How is this related
No one asked?
Keyboard Warrior it’s dysphoria that is the disorder not trans themselves
Gaga's voice is always perfect no matter what.
yeah thats true
there's probably some slight auto-tuning involved but for the most part it is live, and a lot better than most other performers.
How are you sure that it sings live and in person?

What's the name song? Love it!
ive got goosebumos everytime i played this video
honestly.. truly.. ICONIC
When she's not a flop
Anh Tuấn she still ain't flop cause her album just sold 700k copies
still flop for a pop singer
nice try, all what you said even a B-rated singer can archieve haahahahahaha
So gaga's just on that level??? where is her top 10 billboard 100? where is Perfect illusion on the chart? where is million reasons ? #64 or #85? where are 100M views for 2 new MVs? LOL =))))))))) SHE'S FLOP AS FUCK. dont try to deny it, poor you
Anh Tuấn b rated singer oh please no b rated singer can get 12 world records 300 awards 6 grammys 1 golden globe sold more than 300 million records sold more than 45 million albums ww!!!just shut the fuck up and accept the truth that gaga is still slaying!!
The best part was how she slowed down the song to sing the words 'no matter gay straight or bi...' etc so it really drove the point home
3:20 is when it happens
thats why i kept rewinding here more than a million times...
Honestly.. I will always love lady Gaga.. because when I didn't think I was beautiful, when I felt like I was a waste of space, when I felt like I was abnormal, I felt like she was the only one there for me and through her music I was able to be myself, and accept myself, and love myself. I will always love her.
Omar Cossio and I love you! Stay proud, always love yourself🌸🌸
Omar Cossio I love ❤️ u too always stay proud of who you are ,because you are U for a Purpose.

She sounds as good as the radio WHILE performing very intense dance moves. The dedication is really in a different stratosphere.
her voice, her body, oh god i can't handel so much perfection in one person
She truly is one of a kind!
no one can be anything close to her
OMG me too she's gorgeous😍
*handle
*bangs her head a good few times like there's no tomorrow*
the very next moment
*sings flawlessly*
This is EPIC. She is already a legend . Gaga changed the industry ... she showed us fashion, eccentricity and madness ... her voice is magnificent and her old songs are commercial but the lyrics are really good . She is an icon of pop music and I like to see her evolve and try with jazz ... love u Gaga
She just brings out art... artistic performance and it fills my soul... I don't know how to explain it. She is an angel for so many!
Why couldn't I notice this women is a legend when I was young ?? She is AMAZING
Same here.
Lady Gaga doesn't need autotune, autotune need a Lady Gaga...
An iconic performance for the ages!
she can sing, dance, act, play piano, write her own song. perfect
GAGA is one the Best Vocalist now. She ranked as an A+ Vocalist. her tone and techniques praised by Music Critics. SHE'S CAPABLE SINGING MELISMA, But she's not doing overly. Her Head Voice can be so thick and operatic, her low notes are so Dark and Full. Amd she can sing any Genre and slay it. Must watch her sound of music and national anthem's covers,etc. and btw her national anthem cover is ranked one the best under whitney. :)
AND SHE'S A SONG WRITER, DIRECTOR ETC. SHE DIRECTED MARRY THE NIGHT, JUDAS, GUY. SHE WRITTEN TELEPHONE MV.
SHE AWARDED AS BEST ACTRESS IN GOLDEN GLOBES.
SHES SO POWERFUL AND TALENTED
Melisma you mean??
Yaoi Yaoi melisma i mean. i just a copy paste my comment
The year is 2050
Lady Gaga is recording her last ever album and my kids are listening to Artpop from 30 years ago
Periodt
That is actually gonna happen like hard not to love the Queen.
What you mean 2050? this woman will outlive us all.
Here new songs are FIRE tho!
i would probably gonna cry so hard
Hello,All American 🇺🇸 🇯🇵
When Born This Way remains at number one for 10 consecutive weeks. At that time, the 3.11 earthquake hit Japan. When the situation calmed down, Gaga worried about Japan and came to Japan. We Japanese will never forget Gaga's kindness and courage.🙏
Thank you very much GAGA❤️
It’s amazing how what some people considered a “trendy artist” managed to stay relevant for so long. She’s like a chameleon in every sense of the word.
Shes a triple threat, incredible performer, amazing actress, and a social media sensation. She is always ahead of her time an instead of following trends she makes them. A fucking icon.
@@hunterwolfe669 omg your comment aged like wine now she has a tricon award
@Ares an award given by MTV VMA for mastering in three or more fields because Gaga is a musician, an actress, a fashion icon, and an activist. Tricon is so special because Gaga is the first awardee ever
Yess!! I think it’s also her continued support that also keeps all her fans here. Because yes she’s one of the best singers I’ve ever heard but ok personally I used to feel super connected and safe whenever I listened to her music as a kid. And now I’m older I now know I’m an enby lesbian but back then I had no clue. And yet some sub conscious part of my brain knew her music was going to be my safe/happy place for over the next 10+ yrs. I love Gaga and always will because her music helped me feel loved when my family didn’t ❤️🌈
How can she sing so good when she is dancing like that, she is soooo good

She learned from her idol Madonna.

+Kevin Katia 32 here !
+rafa gonz That's completely normal, Gaga is wide to different genres of music, I hope she gets to explore and experiment a lot of them. No ageism :)
Madonna, is that you?
lol. you would never see Madonna come out of an egg. I get it, I love them both. Seen Madonna in every concert since Re-Invention tour....she's great, gaga's great....they both are in their own way...plenty of room for both of them. Gaga gives you something darker, while Madonna gives you something with sex and class.
Lady Gaga is not an artist, she's art

Ok it's official for me, I am unable to find a better female artist than Gaga, she slayed
Yaoi Yaoi they’re both good at performing omg ... just let moon queen have her preference ffs
People who says this "Its hard to sings well and dance at the same time" needs to see this video. She make it look so easy.
and then you break your hip .... D:
she even got her heels on
Her being able to do it doesn't make it easy...
ddoctriness it says literally "She make it look so easy". There is a difference in what you say and what he said.
To me, this is THE performance of Gaga's career. I cried so hard at this because the gays and Gaga have had a connection since the beginning of her career. A lot of pop stars with primarily gay fan bases don't appreciate their gay fans as well. Gaga took it as a sign from the universe to make a revolutionary change, and she gave us so much loving promotion. Gaga was a big cause to the second huge LGBT revolution. Rupaul's Drag Race/Rupaul as a person becoming successful also helped solidify this change. We are witnessing history people! Gaga and Rupaul are making arts and the gays come to life. This will bring us into the new Romantic period, just like Ancient Greece was! This hopefully brings us to where all human beings on earth have full rights to be who they were meant to be.
Have you seen 2009 vma performance
All I can say without hurting your feelings is that it is so not important.
Even 11 years out, this performance, this version of this song is my absolute favorite. Being a music major, the addition of the organ just makes me happy, but also the altered rythym for 'whether gay, straight, or bi, lesbian, trangender life' just gives me chills...Every. Damn. Time.
I love the song and I love the music. What else can I say?
When the organ starts I collapse inside because I know what's coming. She gave me the confidence back then and still to this day to have a voice. Back story... My family watches the award shows every year and the fact that she made this statement changed my life because they saw a world famous musician tell the world to wake up and my family finally understood that day during the performance that I'm not an outcast.
That’s really cool!
It's SICK how brilliant she can sing while dancing just as wild, if not MORE, than her background dancers! AMAZING! She works so hard!
in my opinion, she is not the princess or queen of pop
she is the goddess of pop, and i don’t care what y’all say.
No it’s Madonna
@@seancrawford1787 in MY opinion
Couldn’t agree more
Its Cher
Agreed
This incredible performance was literally out of this world, these days nobody push boundaries like lady gaga did.
Baby, I was Born This Way!
Hell Yeahhh ;)
wtf she danced perfectly with those heels
How does the do it I can barely stand in heels
Thats why she is LADY GAGA
+Kendel Perry lady gaga is called lady gaga for a reason THEIR IS NO REASON FOR ANYTHING IF YOUR HER
cuz its gaga
and sang
This could’ve gone pretty bad but it was a superb performance that cemented her as a great visual artist with tremendous work ethic and talent What a time to be alive and see this performance live
Still till this day I will never understand how people dissed this woman for spreading a message for a community she is apart of, a community that wants nothing but peace. They called her weird, they told her no, but she didn’t back down, she and this performance is the definition of art and equality.
I am so proud of how far she has come and the way she continues to persist and push forward.
The media back 11 years ago was sooooo sexist, homophobic and could body shame who ever they pleased. (The media is still very much the same now). Regardless I believe the Born This Way album inspired so many people and pushed forward a bigger message, even now it empowers so many people race/sexuality/shape or size/gender etc. I love this woman so much for everything she has done for my friends and family apart of the LGBTQIA+ community and for my friends that are POC, so thank you Gaga for everything 🥰
It was an easy way for them to get people to ignore/dismiss what she actually said. "She's weird, ignore her!". All she ever preached was kindness, equality, and empowerment - they felt threatened so had to undermine her.
Yesssdd
Born this way isn’t just about being gay, it’s about loving yourself in the skin your in!!!
BTW teach me, human is beautiful as it is, we should be grateful and confident. Because we are the most perfect creation
Wrong. It is exactly about being gay. You don’t get to take away from us. She wrote this song specifically for gay folks.
@@scottgessford7878 sure its mainly about the LGBTQIA+ community but it also clearly have lyrics regarding racial diversity. Being "born this way" refers to your skin colour, your gender, your sexuality, your diasbility status...
@@scottgessford7878 yes its ab gay people but not JUST that 😭
It true. Im not LGBT or anything but i love this song because it empowers me to come out of my insecure shell and be myself.🕶🕊
OMG, im still in love with this perf, its one of my favourites!
Closeted Lady Gaga fan here!! 💕 Love it!!! 58 years old male Q !!!
Yeap, so am I, 71 years of age!
I wish performances were still like this
Artists are too afraid to stand out now :/
well..k-pop performances on awards shows are crazy as well
@@kristinemma3386 but do the have powerful messages?
lumi 2 Yes!! many k-pop bands are telling you to love yourself, accept yourself for who you are and how you look because you are beautiful in your own way, to have confidence, and to not care what other people think about you. BTS’ leader, Kim Namjoon, was able to do a speech at UN and he said “no matter who you are, where you’re from, your skin color, your gender identity, just speak yourself ❤️.”
BTS is telling you to love yourself for who you are, to speak yourself, have confidence, to be happy, and say it’s okay to not have dreams.
MAMAMOO has a song and they performed it on a live award show, and the song is about having confidence and you don’t have to fit in.
TWICE covered this song at a live performance , spreading awareness of this amazing song.
(k-pop groups ^)
A lot of k-pop groups do this and I am so happy to be a fan of it! I am also a Lady Gaga fan, and they both spread amazing messages 💜❤️.
lumi 2 they have some good messages too, but tbh it doesn't have much impact to people's lives like how hollywood artists do.
She saved so many lost souls...she is a legend
