Not so Gaga for Muu Muus

Not only has Lady Gaga made a name for herself in the music world, but she has also become as well known or even more well known for her outfits. She is a fashion icon. Period. End of discussion. Every time Gaga makes a public appearance or is caught by the shutterbugs, you can always be ensured that whatever ensemble she is sporting that it will push boundaries, make a statement, and set a trend.

Her fashion influence is rather ubiquitous at this point. Take Halloween for instance, the question seemed to be who isn’t dressing up in a Lady Gaga costume? With thousands of dresses, unitards, and lingerie to choose from, everyone could be their own unique version of their music and fashion muse. Because the public knows what to expect when it comes to her outrageous wardrobe choices, they always keep their eyes peeled whenever she arrives at the many awards shows she attends. Who doesn’t want to see her make raw meat look hot or her wear a dress with millions of crystals on it that looks like the rings of Saturn? To make a long story short, you can’t say the word fashion without Gaga.

While perusing one of the most amusing celebrity gossip sites last night, I came across this picture of the one and only.

While a majority of her fans and the fashion world think that she can do no wrong, x17online.com was there to step in and let everyone know that that is not the case. Some might think that the frock Gaga is sporting is a lovely hue of fuchsia, that her sunglasses are very futuristic, and that her bangs might be an homage to the similar ones she sported in her Poker Face video. X17 however, thought that her reason behind her decision to wear this specific dress was to “cover up those extra five to ten pounds she’s gained over the past few months…” While I am not a fan of how loose the dress is, because I do think it is reminiscent of a muu muu, I am completely against the statement they made about her gaining a few pounds.

Gaga is one of the hardest working musicians in the industry and is not ashamed to show off her killer body. The gossip site should know this by now since they seem to document her every move and outfit. I don’t know who they are trying to fool by making such a false statement about her weight which if anything has been declining over the past few months because she has been working non-stop. So what if her dressa little ill fitting, no need to start making excuses for her reasoning behind her decision to not wear something skin tight or ultra revealing. Give the girl a break… she needs one!
