[Blind Gossip] This multi-hyphenate is having a good year and a great awards season. However, she is facing her second controversy in as many weeks. This time, another woman is challenging her legitimacy as a nominee.
Multi wants that trophy badly… so her team is discussing a sneaky plan to stop Challenger.
Challenger is currently facing problems at home with her celebrity spouse. Her relationship is quite shaky at this point. In P.R. world, that presents an opportunity for Multi. She can have have her team shift the press’ focus directly at Challenger’s bad romance.
That way, Challenger will be so busy defending herself that awards season will be over by the time she can go on the offense again… Multi could have walked away with another trophy!

Linda Perry claimed Lady Gaga only contributed one line to her writing credit for her best original song Oscar (and possibly Grammy) nomination. (Dianne Warren, the co-writer said this isn’t true.)
Clue: “bad romance” is a Gaga song
LooLoo says
Well… she didn’t say it wasn’t true. Read what she actually said. She didn’t say that at all.
justme04 says
All I can say is apparently multi is unaware of the history of women with shaky/ending marriages winning the oscar. Yes point out this woman’s marital failure and gain her the win.

purpleunicorn says
Agreed! She is so fake and annoying anymore. And I hate how everyone seems to ignore how off her rocker she acts now- just weird and out of it, sporting tons of obvious BAD plastic surgery. Ugh I wish her star would hurry up and fade already. She hasn’t done anything worth anything in like 5+ years!! Unless you count having sex with your boyfriend or vomiting on stage as talented & noteworthy…. Pathetic. Yuck.
Best Man says
Lady Gaga, Linda Perry, Sara Gilbert
Linda Perry should expect some push back. If she’s smart she won’t defend her love life and it will just drop. Lady Gaga is the bigger star having the bigger moment, it would so easy to keep the fire on her. And I’m not even a publicist.

Gaga and Darlene’s wife. I dig Darlene’s wife, and it was interesting hearing a little bit about how the industry works and why Gaga’s name was on that song. If Gaga wins an Oscar, I think that means all awards are officially bought and paid for. You can buy a GG, but I didn’t think you could buy an Oscar.

What did Gaga do? Linda posted on social media that Gaga had only written one line f the nominated song, therefore questioning the validity of her nomination. If Gaga is smart she won’t do or say anything to retaliate.

[Optional] Shifting focus: Dirty tactic or smart P.R.? Dirty tactic. IF the accusations are baseless, prove it and let it all stand on it’s own. Going after someones crumbling marriage to deflect focus on you is not only dirty and low (and a form of bullying Gaga….); it proves Linda Perry right.

Dirty. Gaga has made a career out of stealing other people’s ideas. I have no respect for her. Leo’s face when she won a Golden Globe for her “acting” said it all.

Dirty tactic and it only shows the world that Gagme Gaga KNOWS she’s undeserving of the award. Lady gaga had her chance at fame and now it’s pretty sad to watch her. Gaga didnt write that song and doesnt deserve the award. We’ve all kown she’s a fraud now her PR people will justify what we’re all thinking if they go that route.

mariaj says
Over exposed-overrated, overthetop, etc Gaga AND LInda Perry, It’s a dirty tactic but it MIGHT be smart. Well, as much smart as the Academy members are dumb, so, quite smart.
Rn, i am hoping Gaga to be smackdowned, at least a bit, she has become insufferable, she and her whole act. But i guess i have to wait a bit for that. Better, it will be juicier when it will happen.
Sadly, thanks to R Murphy she has gained some attention again: another thing to add to Murphy faults.

This is about Lady Gaga pulling a Beyonce and acting like she wrote a song when she just added a few words and Linda Perry calling her out.

Gaga
Linda Perry, who is married to Sara Gilbert
I’d describe it as more dirty than smart, but that’s mostly because I don’t think anyone really cares about Perry and Gilbert.
luvprue1 says
I agree. Do anyone really remember the name of the people who sung the songs for Milli Vanilli? Nope. The song was likely only consider for an award because Gaga’s name was attach to it.
ninanicole says
Idk on challenger but multi is obv Gaga w/ Taylor Kinney. Tbh, she doesn’t really deserve all the acting praise. I love her in AHS but she’s basically herself.

Very Dirty Tactic on Lady Gagas Part
clues: bad romance, picture alluding to 4 Non Blondes
eddieslady84 says
Linda Perry accusing Lady Gaga of only re-writing one line of her Oscar nominated song. The spouse being Melissa Gilbert.
Clue: ‘bad romance’ – the name of a Lady Gaga song that LP performed when they were both inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. Perry was vocal on Twitter about how LG didn’t deserve the nom. Looks like Gaga’s team already got to her – she has since deleted the tweets and apologized…and if that is the case, well, that’s the risk you take when you open your…
eddieslady84 says
Also, and this may be a stretch, but is the pic a clue as well? In that the fingers are about to ‘pokerface’?

VT1415 says
Lady Gaga
Linda Perry
Sara Gilbert
eh, it’s awards season, so people will do whatever they can to win. It’s also fairly typical to give writing credits to the celebrity in the writing process even if they only wrote one word (see Blurred Lines). I think Linda Perry is a huge Diane Warren fan and thinks DW should be getting more credit that Lady GaGa is giving her.
traherne says
Lady Gaga
Linda Perry
Sara Gilbert
Clue being “bad romance”, although it was rather obvious without it.
Optional: As much as I dislike Gaga, I wouldn’t call it a “dirty tactic” to be honest. Perry came out as a sore loser by trying to rain on Gaga’s parade, she can’t complain if she gets mud flung at her in return. But I wouldn’t call it “smart move” either, because I doubt trashing her detractor will help Gaga win an Oscar.

Lady Gaga being challenged by Linda Perry who is married to Sara Gilbert. Photo is of someone who looking like ‘What’s Going On?’ and of course the Bad Romance reference. Perry believes Dianne Warren deserves the credit and I gotta say, I agree.

It saddens me to think of Lady Gaga as a multi-hyphenate, but if she is going to win awards for something, even if she was barely involved, she should be rewarded for her music rather than her acting.
Dirty tactic, of course.

Perry claimed Gaga didn’t deserve co-writing credit on her Oscar-nominated song. Then co-writer Diane Warren backed up Gaga and Perry backed off.
Clues: great award season = Golden Globe win for Gaga; second controversy = Leo DiCaprio braying like an ass when Gaga was announced as the winner and Gaga then intentionally bumping his elbow on her way to give her acceptance speech.

Is this still Linda Perry talking about Gaga not deserving a writer’s credit on her oscar-nominated song? Who cares about Linda Perry’s marriage? I don’t even really know who she is and had to google who she’s married to. Nobody cares.
It’s definitely a dirty tactic. I didn’t think it was possible for me to lose any more respect for Gaga. New low.
Also, this kind of proves that Linda is right or else they wouldn’t care…
