It seem like 2013 was suppose to be the year Lady Gaga came back and ruled the Pop world, with her new album Artpop. But that didn’t happen. And according to Forbes 2013 Gaga was a loser. Check out what Forbes has to say below.
Via Forbes:
This was supposed to be the year of Gaga—the time when the Queen Monster regained her throne after a self-imposed quiet period. Instead, Miley Cyrus twerked her way into the spotlight this summer, Lorde dominated the airwaves this fall, and Beyoncé shocked the world as much any superstar could with her surprise album earlier this month.
Gaga’s highly-anticipated album, however, got lukewarm reviews from many critics even though it was actually not that bad. Worse yet, it failed to generate anywhere near the buzz of the aforementioned trio. For an artist who’s all about buzz, that’s a problem. From a business perspective, so is her recent split with tech-savvy manager Troy Carter.
Still, Gaga is one of the top-earning acts in the world and has millions of incredibly loyal fans. Even if some don’t care for ARTPOP, she has built a fairly extensive catalogue of hits to go with her considerable talents as a performer—and shouldn’t have trouble filling up arenas when she hits the road this spring. That could make 2014 quite a lot better for her than 2013.
