Over the past year or so, Lady Gaga has changed. I’ve noted it time and time again – all of a sudden, it was like she’s was humorless, narcissistic, coked-up monster where before that, she had been kind of funny and kooky and weird, but it just seemed silly and fun. I partially blamed the change on her relationship with Luc Carl. Gaga and Luc had been together before she was famous, and then last year, they got back together. Their renewal came around the same time as Gaga’s “change”. Well, here’s hoping she changes back, because Gaga announced last night that she and Luc are done:
“Bad Romance,” indeed. Lady Gaga, 25, has ended her on-and-off relationship with Luc Carl, the singer announced Thursday on England’s The Graham Norton Show.
“I don’t have a boyfriend and haven’t been on any dates recently,” the pop star said.
The couple split several years ago before rekindling their romance in July 2010. Despite their breakup, the “Judas” singer credits Carl, a musician and bartender, for helping her become “successful” in the music industry.
“I’ve really never loved anyone like I loved him. Or like I love him,” she told Rolling Stone last year. “That relationship really shaped me. I sort of resolved that if you can’t have the guy of your dreams, there are other ways to give love.”
Hours after announcing her breakup to the world, Gaga performed a private concert, Belvedere Presents Born This Way, at Annabel’s in London; she played five songs from her new album while celebrities including Kate Moss, Florence Welch, will.i.am and Geri Halliwell cheered her on.

Eh. That was kind of a weak denial, and now I’m doubting it. The bitch is probably lying. Luc has some kind of pull on her, and I think he actively encourages her self-destructive streak. Either that or he dumped Gaga and went back to that other girlfriend.

Bloated mess. She needs life rehab so she can get back to the Gaga worthy of the praise she gets.
Her face scares the hell out of me in those pictures. She will haunt my nightmares. 🙁
god she looks so desperate for approval in those last two photos.
She really does seem pretty obviously on something. Her tone, her attitude, the way she speaks, what she says, how she says it–it has all completely changed. She seems arrogant, full of herself, and even a little delusional about her own life and her power and influence. Get thee to rehab! Not that rehab ever seems to do much for these celebs.
If she does go, she’ll come out, there will be whole big publicity spaz out around it, she’ll get a bunch of attention, and be lauded for getting it together and BOOM–boost in fame level, exposure (all refreshed and renewed), and adoration.
::GAG::
Is it bad that I just want to hug her and then wash all of the crap off of her and out of her hair….Then make her some homemade soup and put her to bed?
I think she has amazing talent, but all of the stuff she’s doing to herself really scares me for her. Maybe it’s just the mom in me.
OMG… it looks like Bucky Beaver on speed!
How could he has erection when she was around? I guess he was some fetish freak.
GaGa seems desperately lonely, sexually confused, and very needy at her inner core. . . But maybe it’s also just the act du jour?
She did used to be funny and interesting. Now she takes herself WAY too seriously. B-O-R-I-N-G!
She looks like “Sid” from the “Ice Age” movies and acts like a twitchy strung out Chihuahua.
This same guy told her before they broke up the first time that she would never make it big. The article is in Cosmopolitan last year when she was on the cover. She had the ultimate revenge on a douche ex! Then she went and got back with him….I agree she’s gotten so strange since then. That”s what happens when you trade your dignity for a douche bag.
She looks like one of these goth lolitas from Japan. How original. And she wears more make-up than Xtina. That’s something.
Please don’t insult the Elegant Gothic Lolita style by saying that Gaga looks like them.
People who do the true EGL make their own clothes from the designs given in the EGL Bibles and are much more creative than Gaga will ever be. Plus, they listen to much better music than Gaga could ever put out.
Moi Dix Mois, Malic Mizer, Dir En Grey, etc. They’ve been around a lot longer than Gaga has and have been perfecting their look for quite a while.
And Luc probably dumped her. The amount of attention Gaga most likely requires probably wore him out, and I’m sure he had to constantly tell her what an amazing genuis she is and how she’s the most original artist since The Beatles, etc.
I’d tire of that too. In my experience it’s exhausting dating someone with a huge ego and that needs constant attention or drama.
Her astrology chart shows…She will remain a ‘star’..marry a film director from England, have his baby, adopt another, write some half assed children’s books, begin speaking in an affected accent and for a big finale show up at the opening of starbucks…sigh.
Why does her face look so bloated? It’s weird.
I just realized something. Gaga would fit in perfectly as a music teacher at an elementary school. All of my music teachers had something off about them, and a lot of the time they had that crazed look in their eye like she’s displaying here.
Her wardrobe and hair would have to change though.
@JuniperGreen – “Get thee to rehab! Not that rehab ever seems to do much for these celebs.”
All ‘rehab’ is to celebrities these days is a method to get the press off their ass, be it for drugs, alcohol, or being caught having sex with people other than your wife.

I agree *entirely* with Cherry Rose – “Please don’t insult the Elegant Gothic Lolita style by saying that Gaga looks like them.” The look Gaga is doing… is nothing like actual lolita styles.

I feel bad for Gaga. I think she’s in a really self destructive downward spiral, revolving around increased drug abuse. She always thought pot smoking & cocaine were what inspired her to write & be a ‘visionary’. The more pressure she’s under to come up with new music & ingenius show-stopping outfits, videos & concerts…. the more likely she’s increased her drug use trying to ‘inspired’, & ‘on top’.
I think it’s doing just the opposite, making her ‘strung out’, probably hardly sleeping, who knows if she’s eating properly. She’s acting ‘strange’ (more-so, & in a different way than, usual) whenever you see her in interviews. It could very well be because of this mess than her relationship ended.
I just foresee her being one of those people that we look back on as ‘visionaries’ that were ‘lost before their time’… Because of a drug overdose, or something.
She needs to be careful, she’s really becoming more of a punchline than anything else. And I liked her Madonna rip off Born this Way but Judas sucks.
@tmbg: Thanks for the laugh!!!!
Carl’s “disco stick” wore out fast with this freak. Can’t blame the guy if he ran away from her after she sucked the youth out of him…LOL…yup, a “bad romance”…
Like her or not, please don’t refer to her as “it” – it is incredibly rude.
@Antisara – “Can’t blame the guy if he ran away from her after she sucked the youth out of him…LOL…yup, a “bad romance”…
Your comment oddly reminded me of a strange thing I saw on a documentary, about ‘energy vampires’….. xD People who claim to ‘feed’ on the energy of others (thus ‘vampires’). Gaga strikes me as the type of person who would be (or think they are) an energy vampire. (Granted her appearance lately tends to argue that she isn’t one, if such a thing really exists.)
For some reason ‘sucking the youth out of him’ reminded me of that xD
Wow, I normally don’t jump on the “they’re on something” wagon, but her face is…yikes. Different. She’s been interesting in that she’s always been so made-up and costumed that no one actually knows what she looks like (brilliant, IMO) but she did NOT have that rounded puffy face even 6 months ago. Coke bloat? Plastic surgery? Something isn’t right there.
Love her sleeves. That’s my positive thing to say.
Her Express Yourself rendition was on the radio yesterday and I had to endure a 15 minute litany from my husband on how Madonna can’t carry a tune for her life. Enough said.
She looks like Genghis Khan. That is all.
Love her.
I’d say…matador.
In the first pic I swear she looks like peter sellers doing his charlie chan get up from one of those old Pink Panther movies. Everytime she blabbers on about her “art” I’ll recall that first pic and laugh to myself.
LOL @ the Genghis Khan comment. Maybe she’s him reincarnated. I hate her guts so much.
Weird Al looks better than her!
I think Nicki Manaj (i think thats how u spell her name) is the new ladygaga because HAVE U SEEN HER OUTFITS there just like lady gaga’s but on her.
