Giveaway and Review of Billboard Magazine’s Lady Gaga Digital Edition Supplement

Our darling half-psychotic sick hypnotic readers, haunting-like-Liberace little monsters,

Gaga Stigmata would like to give away a copy of Billboard Magazine’s Lady Gaga Digital Edition Supplement.  If you are interested in receiving this glittery gift, please read the following review, and then leave a response in the comments.


Billboard Magazine’s digital supplement on Lady Gaga does everything that we, at Gaga Stigmata, do not do.  That is, it gives you the nuts and bolts of Lady Gaga’s career, and leaves analysis to us who live in dream-slow close-ups.  There is a piece on Gaga’s Monster Ball tour, which includes a number of fiery audience shout-outs from our dear Mother Monster, and an overview of the concert’s planning.  Another article takes a look at Gaga’s latest song “You and I,” then springboards back to her writing process during the days of “Just Dance.”  There are interviews with RedOne and Rob Fusari (who says Gaga looked like a guidette from the Jersey Shore when he first met her, [SNORT]), and myriad charts that catalogue her many achievements – records broken, awards, numbers sold.  There is also a collection of Billboard articles about Lady Gaga that were published in past years; the earliest ones from 2008 are remarkable for how unremarkable Lady Gaga seemed in their pages.  We are reminded that Lady Gaga was an opening act for New Kids on the Block in 2008, and reading these articles with the knowledge we now have is like reading about a non-entity who is perched on the brink of universal superstardom.  The supplement also contains a number of high-resolution pictures of Lady Gaga from her earliest to her most recent performances, and clear biographical pieces.

Interested in receiving a copy?  Then leave us a comment before midnight PST on Friday Sept. 17th, letting us know what you love about Gaga Stigmata, and/or what you’d like to see more of.
