FRESH OR NOT: India Arie & Perez Hilton on the Lady GaGa/Beyonce "Telephone" Video!


Well here we go ladies and gents!! The Lady GaGa fire has spread and people wanna put this fire OUT!!!!!!!! People are not happy about this “Telephone” video featuring Beyonce. From the lesbian lovers story line, to the profanity, she has really went wild!! We even have other artists not happy with this thing. India Arie did not keep quiet about it. She went straight to Twitter and opened fire!!
India said “my issue wasn’t with the nudity in the video, so much as the dark elements and unspoken back story that disturbed her.” She also said “Gaga’s influence and ability to turn the taboo into trend were also troubling.” But here’s more:
India then talked about meeting a young fan whose mother wouldn’t allow her child to watch the “Telephone” video!

Now I see what all the fuss is about this video, but why does Beyonce get to escape with clean hands? I am one of her biggest fans, but she has just as much to do with this as Lady GaGa!! Just goes to show this music business is her world.
Speaking of Beyonce, Perez Hilton is spreading his crazy views around in a interview with Vibe saying that Lady GaGa is a bigger pop star than Beyonce???

“I would say that Gaga is a bigger pop star than Beyoncé right now, just [based on] the sheer statistics. Like, all of Gaga’s singles have gone top of the charts,” said Perez. “Gaga’s tour, selling out. Beyoncé’s last tour did not have a lot of sellouts. And I’m not dissing her or anything. I’m just looking at it statistically.”

“I think the ‘Telephone’ video blows away the ‘Video Phone’ video. ‘Telephone’ is such an epic work of art. It’s like a mini movie and there’s so much going on it really lends itself to repeated viewings,” said Perez. “What’s great about it is even though it’s Gaga’s song featuring Beyoncé, they both come across really well in the video and they both work really well together. [There’s] lots of criticism from lots of people but you know what, Gaga doesn’t care. She makes art and music for her fans and her fans love the video.”
