Welcome to Gaia! ::

The album cover is hot / makes me lol

Okay, the motorcycle concept is cool but...what?

Personally it seems a lot more appealing to me that what I expected: some brightly colored pastel portrait of her riding a unicorn either naked or wearing something minimal (leaves, bubbles, pastel glittering mists, or even just butt naked with her ladyparts covered by hair), but this is ********. You know, I am really disappointed by a lot of stuff regarding Born This Way. On New Years Eve, I stayed up all night waiting for her to leak the release dates and it turns out to be a picture of her butt naked except for some unicorn jacket. I said to myself "Unicorns? Is she a five-year-old girl now?" but I sucked it up and went with it. When the first single dropped I was excited but it was kind of too much of a gay anthem rather than an anthem for everyone as intended. Still, I loved it. Then "Judas" comes out today and I go, "Okay, this isn't as good as I was hoping either" but again I went with it and now (lyrics aside) it's pretty rad. Now THIS? REALLY? AM I HIGH? This is the album of the decade and it's a minimalist cover to be honest. I've yet to see how being proud of who you are regardless of other peoples' opinions correlates to being a humanoid cyborg motorcycle. Yes, she is an artist but this has come to the point where I am really questioning some of what she is doing. Call me a bad fan, I don't care. ******** you. I'm not going to suck up and pretend she's some flawless omnipotent god and sit around while she puts out stuff that doesn't sit well with me.

I think it's fake. Why?

1. Where is her name?
2. Judas leaked. Would she not be upset? She cried at the Monster Ball. I think this 'fake' cover represents or can channel the appearance of a sphinx. Sphinxes protected the pyramid which was seen as sacred architecture in honor of their dead rulers; i.e. treasures within in guarded like gold. Sphinxes usually had the upper body or head of a woman and the bottom of a lion (? Shoot me). In this 'cover' it's almost a '******** you' to the people that leak it and throw around her unreleased content like piggy in the middle. The album is guarded like gold, and there's no way you're going to get it or do what Britney did (or didn't do.. or what her managers didn't do.. you get the point).
3. Gaga is a professional. It's DIY but what with the font? Really? Gaga can do better. After throwing out something as phenomenal as Judas (IMO), she's not going to dare balance it out with such a cover which has received such terrible reception from most of her fans. She always tries to beat what she's put out previously. I won't take this cover with a pinch of salt.
4. It doesn't matter if she showed it at the Monster Ball. You can make it public then take it away.

type in "judas priest" in google images

Oh, and I forgot to mention, everyone is probably going to like the non-single songs better than the singles.

There's that and I think celebrities don't know how to control hype very well.

However, we all know that change can be good or bad, we'll just have to wait and see.

No, you're not a bad fan, you're a smart fan. Like you, we should learn to question.

I think though, some of this hype has to be true, We'll just have to wait. Waiting is all we can do.

I still think the cover is badass. I'm a biker boy though... I should eqip my gimpi motorcycle item!

she put up a picture on facebook of a booklet with that picture on it..

so could it be real?
i'm just gonna say i'm not a huge fan of the cover (if it really is). but i'm gonna buy it for the music X3
