is she going goth now????
I think the two songs sound nearly identical.
I just don't understand her fashion at all. Those facial prosthetics, makeup and that outfit, she looks like she crawled out of a grave. Not in a good way. Funny, I've never seen Gaga and Marilyn Manson in the same place. It's like she killed him and is wearing him as a suit.
did anyone else notice the bump on her head!
Ga Ga, looks Boo Boo. She looks like she just left a Halloween play.
