It's amazing that she released 'Paparazzi' as a single to prepare the ground for fans & GP for an even more bizarre act that would follow, because the Paparazzi era differs a lot from the aesthetics of the girl who just wanted to be happy and celebrate, from the previous singles, however, she still managed to capitalize on this within the era without making it seem incoherent with the purpose of the first album, what a smart move, a genius indeed!

Looking back on her debut era and The Fame Monster, many consider Bad Romance as the song that set her apart from her peers (and maybe it did in many ways) but actually I think Paparazzi and moments like this were what started the movement. What a song, video, promo run, everything wub.gif


Aside: her with Perez Hilton in those shots puke.gif DELETE!

I miss Lady Starlight, I don't understand why after 2015 Gaga never showed up or collaborated with her again, they were inseparable sob.gif

2010 ~ Overview

On August 3, 2010, the nominations were released and all eyes were on Gaga. She had been nominated for a record breaking 13 awards, 18 including "Video Phone". She also broke another record by being the first female to have 2 different videos in the same category, with "Bad Romance" and "Telephone" for "Video of the Year".

Nominations
"Best Collaboration" for Telephone and Video Phone,
"Best Choreography" for Bad Romance, Telephone, and Video Phone,
"Best Female Video" for Bad Romance and Video Phone
"Best Pop Video" for Bad Romance and Video Phone
"Best Art Direction" for Bad Romance and Video Phone
"Best Dance Video" for Bad Romance
"Best Cinematography" for Bad Romance
"Best Direction" for Bad Romance
"Best Editing" for Bad Romance
"Best Special Effects" for Bad Romance.

She won eight of these ("Video of the Year", "Best Choreography", "Best Pop Video", "Best Dance Video", "Best Female Video", "Best Direction", and "Best Editing" for Bad Romance, "Best Collaboration" for Telephone), a record for most female wins in single night.

Although she was the major nominee of the night, she did not perform because she was too busy with The Monster Ball Tour to prepare a performance. Instead, she spent the night making fashion statements in support of the repeal for Don't Ask, Don't Tell. Her styling was done by Nicola Formichetti.

This night was the stuff of LEGENDS. I can't wait to share the highlights from it. It goes down with Superbowl, Oscars, Grammy's BTW night and more as a career defining night. Paws up, it's an exciting one ahead x

2010 ~ White Carpet

Gaga returned to the VMAs on the White Carpet in 2010 with an entourage consisting of former soldiers discharged from service, due to "Don't Ask, Don't Tell", a policy of the United States' military. This policy forbids gay and lesbian soldiers from being open about their sexuality. After the show, an e-mail was sent out to those who had signed up through her official website, and on the e-mail, it mentioned that Gaga is "asking fans to join her and SLDN (Servicemembers Legal Defense Network) in helping repeal the discriminatory policy."

While on the white carpet, she won the awards for "Best Dance Video", and "Best Collaboration" with "Bad Romance" and "Telephone", respectively.

Outfit



Interview
On the carpet, she was interviewed by MTV's Sway:

CODE
Sway: Ladies and gentlemen, this is what the VMAs are all about. There are a lot of celebrated superstars tonight, but probably none as the lady that's standing next to me right here. With a record breaking 13 nominations in one day, Lady Gaga.
Lady Gaga: Hi Sway.
Sway: nice to see you.
Lady Gaga: You too. You too. Hi everybody.
Sway: Alright. You look great, but before we get started I got to present you with something.
Lady Gaga: Uh oh.
Sway: Alright, you have the first VMAs, the first two moon men of the night. Congratulations.
Lady Gaga: Thank you. Oh my gosh. Which awards?
Sway: For Best Dance Video, for Bad Romance and Best Collaboration for Telephone with Beyonce.
Lady Gaga: Okay, thank you. We did it, Hunny B.
Sway: Y'all did it. Great video. We got to talk about your outfit. I remember last year you performed, and you ripped the stage up. But you also performed in your seat, because you have so many spectacular wardrobe changes. How many outfits did you bring tonight?
Lady Gaga: You just have to wait to find out. I don't want to ruin the surprises. But this is Alexander McQueen from his last collection.
Sway: From his last collection? Well it looks great. Now one thing I think people admire most about you, including myself, is you don't just use your celebrity to sell music. You also stand up for causes and bring awareness to things that are important to you. Tell me about these people we have on the stage today.
Lady Gaga: I'm here for a very important cause today. these are all my friends, and they are with SLDN.org, which is an organization that was founded in 1993 in reaction to the Don't Ask, Don't Tell policies. And there stories are really inspiring and there's so much that we can do right now. These soldiers that are with me today have all been discharged from the air force or the army, or opted to leave on their own. This is Katie, she left from West Point. there stories are truly inspiring and in my opinion, as so many young people believe all over the world, Don't Ask, Don't Tell is wrong, it's sick, it's immoral. And my friend here, David, actually... tell him your story.
David: I served five years in the air force, then I was dish=charged after being outed by a fellow cadet. Are friend Mike there was actually discharged while in Iraq.
Lady Gaga: Mike was serving in Iraq, and he was discharged as well. And my friend, Stacy here, was discharged after 12 years in the army. She served her country. And the most inspiring thing about having them here with me today is that we can spread the message of what the organization is all about, because we really need to get Reed to set a date in the Senate to repeal Don't Ask, Don't Tell.
Sway: This is why people love you. I wanna applaud everybody who served our military. Thank you for your service.
Stacy: Thank you.
Sway: And thank you for your time. You look great tonight.
Lady Gaga: Thank you. And no one person is more valuable than another person.
Sway: Absolutely. And welcome to the VMAs you guys. Go inside and enjoy yourself. Great performances. Eminem will be on the stage. Kanye West will be on the stage. I'm sure you guys will have a great time, okay.
Lady Gaga: Thank you, Sway.
Sway: And Lady Gaga, congratulations.
Lady Gaga: Thank you.
Sway: And back to you guys on the white carpet.

That McQueen dress is arguably one of her own personal faves too. She said that in the Car Pool Karaoke episode in 2016.

I like the shoes and the wig but I don't like the dress. She should have made a TFM medley that day, but she was the brightest star anyway.

I'm beautiful in my way, 'cause God makes no mistakes. I'm on the right track. Baby, I was Born This Way.
Good night.

This is my favourite moment of her entire career to date. I have my favourite performances, videos, songs, tours, outfits... but this is perhaps THE moment that I hold above all else? Goosebumps every single time.

That BTW announcement was a huge surprise and even moreso considering it was released several months later. Queen knows how to build up hype! heart.gif

Of course the Meat Dress was a moment!
