Line 173:
== Lady Gaga is actually [[Eversion|Princess Nehema]]. ==
She apparently thought that this world was a bit too boring for her tastes, so she took on the identity of a promising singer from New York in order to spread her influence via music and turn the world into something suiting her own tastes. Just ''look'' at the Commonplace Book quote that ''Eversion'' is based on.

Also, think of it this way: at first, she didn't really seem like anything too special, but her songs were pretty catchy. As her popularity grew, she began to show her true colours and things began to look a little... darker. By 2011, we're probably going to [[Go Mad From the Revelation]].
 
Line 405:
* No, it was about an abusive S&M relationship. She was purchased, brainwashed to her Master's wants, and forced to love him. (Hence the "Want your Bad Romance.") That's why she's crying near the end: she finally realizes what's happened to her, sobs, shakes it off, and sets up a trap to kill him. She struts over to him in her usual weird fetishy getup. Then BAM, spontaneous combustion. No one is the wiser.
* According to [[The Other Wiki]]:
{{quote| ''"The main idea behind the video is that of Gaga being kidnapped by a group of supermodels who drug her, and sell her off to the Russian Mafia. It takes place in a fluorescent white bathhouse. The video begins with Gaga sitting in a white throne, wearing a golden dress and glasses made from razor blades. She is surrounded by several people and her signature harlequin Great Dane. She has her finger on the mute button of an iPod speaker (from which a synthesized excerpt of the fugue in B minor from Book 1 of the Well-Tempered Clavier by Johann Sebastian Bach emanates as an intro to the music video), and when she presses it, "Bad Romance" begins to play. Sunlight begins to pan across the walls of a bath house activating the fluorescent lighting, and a sign is shown that reads: "Bath Haus of GaGa". A group of dancers wearing white long-sleeved leotards with knee high boots and matching crowns crawl out of white, egg-shaped pods. The center pod has the word "Monster" written on it, and Gaga emerges from it wearing a similar outfit to the dancers, who begin to dance behind her. When the chorus of the song begins, two women pull her out of a bathtub, rip her clothes off and force her to drink a glass of vodka. As the second verse begins, Gaga, wearing a diamond-covered outfit complete with a crown, seductively dances for a group of men bidding on her. She straddles one of the men and performs somewhat of a lap dance on him. Afterwards, he raises his bid and becomes the highest bidder for her. When the chorus is played for the third time, Gaga is shown wearing a faux polar bear hide jacket. She walks toward the man, who is sitting on a bed, unbuttoning his shirt. Gaga has a look of indifference on her face and removes her jacket and sunglasses. Suddenly, the bed spontaneously combusts with the man still sitting on it. The video ends with Gaga lying beside a smoldering skeleton on top of the destroyed bed with ashes everywhere. She smokes a cigarette, while her pyrotechnic bra activates."''}}
** Now that's just boring.
 
Line 482:
* Just as one interpretation of "The Queen And The Soldier" would read, the queen is a young woman who once found satisfaction in being highly desirable and iconic, but now suffers in loneliness as only a prize to be won. ''"I've swallowed a secret burning thread / it cuts me inside, and often I've bled"'' is obviously a reference to the crucifix Gaga swallows, internalizing puritanical, stereotypically Catholic guilt about open sexuality even as she fights violently to oppose it, be who she actually is, and be sexually liberated.
 
{{quote| The [[Idol Singer|young queen]], she fixed him with an arrogant eye<br />
She said, [[True Art Is Incomprehensible|"You won't understand, and you may as well not try"]]<br />
But her face was a child's, and he thought [[Lonely At the Top|she would cry]]<br />
Line 488:
 
And even more tellingly:
{{quote| And he said, "I want to live as an honest man<br />
To get all I deserve and to give all I can<br />
And to love a [[Cloudcuckoolander|young woman who I don't understand]]<br />
Your highness, '''[[Camp|your ways]] are very strange."''' }}
