EOC Week 6: Lady Gaga & The Grammys

So Lady Gaga did a tribute to David Bowie for her Grammy's performance and who did it benefit? The performance wasn't as exciting as her own performances, and perhaps that was because I am not as familiar with David Bowie other than his tunes which are super popular. I am fairly younger, so do not attack me for my knowledge or lack there of on David Bowie. It was entertaining and recently Gaga has been in the media, with her award winning place in American Horror Story.
This seems to have most benefited Lady Gaga and her image in mainstream, she hasn't put out any current music and is working on reinventing her image.
We've also seen her singing the National Anthem for the opening of the Super Bowl. Perhaps we can expect to see more of her in the media and maybe we hear some new music. Having Lady Gaga perform could have benefit the Grammy's organization as well. Though she currently does not have much music out, she still has a major following. Having her pay tribute to David Bowie added to her aesthetic.
Though I was not the biggest fan of this particular performance, I am a Lady Gaga supporter. I enjoy how she uses her craft to shed light onto other issues happening, like this and the death of David Bowie. His death impacted many people and help individuals like myself discover his music and movement. I can now see why she was a great fit to do the tribute.
At the end of it all the viewers also benefit from her performance. As a viewer we get to experience and witness her work as an artist. She is quiet interesting to watch and following, She has constantly evolved and I very much enjoy watching her grow and am extremely excited to see what she is going to do next.
