Her appearances are outrageous, but she also made some of them, she's showing off her art in many cases, and the art of others in many other cases.


I completely disagree that she's more revealing than most other artists.
She is just as revealing as many artists. Adele is a horrible example because she is the least crazy, most down to earth female artist in pop right now. Horrible example.

For the record, I am mostly playing devil's advocate here. While I do agree with the stance I am taking, I don't like Lady Gaga musically nor do I support a lot of the ridiculous things she does.
Yeah, anyone who says she's selling records based on sex appeal is full of it. She definitely promotes her music through image – actually, I think that's a big part of her appeal – but she's not just showing tits and ass to make money, she's showing tits and ass because fucking intergalactic-pirate-meat-zombie suits tend to show tits and ass.
