I really wanted to write about the ridiculousness of the Noritaka Tatehana stilts which Lady Gaga wore to the CFDA awards. They're just so outrageous and they're begging for attention. Someone has to point out how absurd and original and wacky they are, right?
But, there's one problem: they're on Gaga's feet.
If, say, Rihanna or Gwyneth Paltrow or Cameron Diaz or anyone else had dared to don them, we could take delight in pointing out the absurdity of their fashion sense. Fashion bloggers and writers and commentators the world over would have a field day coming up with humorous anecdotes and witty one-liners about these shoes.
Sadly, I'm overwhelmed by the Gaga-ness of it all.
This is a woman who swallows avant-garde style and turns it into a commercial, self-serving parody of itself. She eats designers for breakfast. She's exhausting. And (dare I say it?) boring.
In the words of the stylistas extraordinaire, the Fug girls, "I automatically need to quit her for, like, a year."
I find Lady Gaga…
