Is Lady Gaga a Goth?

I was looking for some Lady Gaga pictures because I was looking for some make-up ideas and I stepped on many site were people ask wheter this Lady is a goth. Well the answer (or at least My answer) is NO. LADY GAGA IS NOT A GOTH.

As we all should know, being a goth is not all about the clothes, but it's mostly about the music you listen to. Lady Gaga said many times that she was inspired by Madonna, The Queen, David Bowie and Micheal Jackson. Is any of this artists considered goth music? NO. So again, NO, LADY GAGA IS NOT GOTH. Repeat with me. LADY-GAGA-IS-NOT-GOTH. xD

So why does she look goth sometimes? Well the answer is, because her main stylist was and still is Alexander McQueen who has many gothic elements in his creations! (click here please--> here.)

Anyway I think she's not a bad artist. At least she can sing a bit and she knows how to "act" and entertain. I really appreciate the fact that she DARES to be different from the mass. At least physically, she tries to be unique. Her music in fact is not. It's a mix between 80s music you could hear in gay clubs (she once said herself her music is for gay people mostly) with a Christina Aguilera sounding like voice. You can take inspiration from the famouse gothic side of her look though !
