Lady Gaga again

I was talking to one of my musician friends about what makes someone a very interesting artist, and she mentioned how Tony Bennett's most recent duet album is of note because even though his voice is shot, he collaborates with such interesting people that they're still worth listening to.  She told me that she was watching an interview with Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga about the album and is now convinced that she is in fact a sociopath.  According to her:
  • "Sociopaths are like a narcissist in so many ways, but they still manage to make you feel good too.  That's how I can tell someone's a sociopath."
  • "Lady Gaga was swooning over Tony Bennett and Tony Bennett was eating it up, yet everything remained about Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett seemed fine about it."
  • "She was kissing his cheek and talking about him, yet somehow it was all about her."  
I tried to find the interview, but could not manage to get a full clip.  This is the best I could do:



Even in this short clip there is a reference to how she is spontaneous (impulsive) and how she changes from day to day, more than anyone he has ever met in the entertainment industry.  I'm not saying that these small things make a sociopath.  I'm just saying that she is a good example of someone famous who could be a sociopath that you wouldn't necessarily think of as being a sociopath.

(Completely off topic for you music lovers) I have a new theory that Beethoven 7 is the orchestral version of a woman's little black dress -- it is universally flattering and appropriate for any occasion.  Feel free to quote me liberally at your next cocktail party.

  2. God I could write two books about Gaga and what she represents.

    I don't think she is a sociopath, though. I think she is just a massive narcissist with some self-awareness.

    A couple of telling things about her:

    1. She says what she's the master of is fame. The art of fame. Not music. Fame.

    2. She has said that given the choice between reality and bullshit she will choose bullshit every time. I doubt a sociopath would say that out loud in an interview. A narcissist would, though, because she knows it makes her seem so post post post post post modern. Also, watch the first few minutes of that Fuck the Night video (or whatever it's called, the one where she takes a bath in Cheerios) for more on this. For that matter, watch the whole video, it's extremely self-indulgent. It's about her having PSTD or some shit when she was dropped from her first record label. OOOoohhh what a tragedy that was, I'm sure.

    I have so much more to say about her, but not right now.

    1. LOL you are so cute when you go gaga over Gaga! She is definitely a big fat narcy. Anyone can see that. I would hope. Besides Madonna, I don't think I've ever heard someone sound so badly scripted we they interview. She may be an expert in fame(!) but she certainly is no expert in mimicking a natural, and honest-seeming speech method. She is plastic to her marrow.

    2. erm, YOU PPL really are acting very ignorant. Ive been aware of what is going on in Hollyweird and the world for a long time now, and I think intelligent people like YOU GUYS who are watching the pop culture should KNOW also wtf is going down. Mkultra mind control is going down. And the video Marry the Night and also, You and I, the concept and strategies of creating a totally mind controlled slave via torture is clearly shown. Gaga isnt a narcissist, well she probably is, actually, but her tv interview persona is a cleverly created one - probalby created by her PROGRAMMER workign for whoever owns her, who is she signed to? follow the money - she is workng not just as a musician, fame monster and celebrity - her work includes spreading satanic symbolism and outlooks, and basically the message that we should all get as drug fcked as possible and just dance. Her purpose is to distract us from what really matters by looking hot and making everyone want to mimic or be as big a fucktard as she is. She has multiple personalitites, and i believe she also played the role of Amy Winehouse. As a victim of mkultra style mind splitting, to create the multiple personalities, seh has been through immense torture and i believe she has been TRAINED to be the perfect disgusting fame monster that she is. a juggernaut. So if she appears to be narcissistic, or sociopathic, id say it is a persona that has been foist on her by her bosses, and there is nothing that she can do about it but follow the rules or have her programming break down. and once that happens it means she must cut her wrists or some other suicide program will kick in. So he cant afford to put a foot wrong. she is also probably used as a sex slave for the upper members of the illuminati, or she is actually auctioned off, as she is in Bad Romance. So when you witness the video you discussed, Marry the night, and you can see a gaga in a tank with water over her head, that is what is most likly actually happening to her. in that video she is shocked and tortured and drugged by a handler. a toughening up indeedy. So, do you understand waht is happening to gaga? same thing that happened to Britney and Xtina, really, but more spectacular if you ask me. I feel for the girl stephanie Germanotta, i believe she still lives inside gaga but as gaga says, she is ALWAYS GAGA. or, always incoherent? mkultra sex slaves are very hard people they have ahd to be to survive. Pray for the poor bitch.

  3. Even in this short clip there is a reference to how she is spontaneous (impulsive) and how she changes from day to day, more than anyone he has ever met in the entertainment industry.

    Eh, I think this is much more about needing attention than anything, and her lack of being comfortable as Stephani Germonatta, in her own skin. Also, she is known for her changes in image. A sociopath generally doesn't flaunt that fact, for to do so would be counter-conducive to the reason a sociopath does that in the first place.

    ReplyDelete
  4. Also, she would probably totally love it if someone called her a sociopath, because it would justify her belief that she is powerful and unique and special and 'apart' from mundane human life, and would also justify her God complex.

    It's the whole Born This Way thing. What that really means, is that she believes that she was born 'special' and the clothes are just accessories to her inherent 'specialness', and it's also a convenient way to look like she's all about social justice and self-acceptance and shit like that.

    ReplyDelete
  5. And then there is the fact of the gossip going around right now that her new boyfriend is getting annoyed by her because she keeps up the persona pretense 24 hours a day, even when they are alone together. He just wants to hang out with Stephani, not some made-up person.

    Eh, just read this short interview and I think it'll be pretty clear whether she is a sociopath or a narcissist.

    1. Simple arrogance is not the same as NPD. And the anecdotes and observations of one person (you) means shit against the words of actual people who know what they are talking about (i.e. psychiatrists, cultural critics, researchers, scholars, DSM, etc).

      Don't spout shit you think you understand without first doing a little research and self-education. Just because you think something is true, doesn't mean you are right.

      How about going to the people who actually defined and coined and researched NPD before relying on whatever it is that you and your friends think that narcissism is. It seems you are going by the popular, uneducated, flippant version of what a lot of people think narcissism is, but it is inaccurate.

  18. "You are deluded by the fantasy she portrays. She is a human, not a god."

    This must be projection, as it has nothing to do with the topic. Narcissists don't like to even CREATE an image of being humanitarian. Narcs prefer to be seen as cold blooded and unfeeling, (which is opposite of what GAGA portrays) because they are terrified of others viewing them as soft or meek. You have no idea what you are talking about.

    2. Dude stop making absolute statements, it makes you sound like a retarded asshole. Medusa is being awfully kind trying to reform your dumb ass.

      One of the narcs I used to be involved with liked to think himself a good Christian. It wasnt because he was putting his ego aside or being humanitarian. It was because he thought being saved made him special and he could look his nose down on those whose morals were lacking. Even though he was my friend because we were fucking around behind his wife's back.

      Narcs like to look good in the eyes of others. If their social group is criminals, they project more bad boy. If they are white collar, they project being a captain of industry. If they hang with new agers, they project being a shaman. Whatever it takes to prop up that ego. Getting appreciation from humanitarianism is the goal, not the act of the altruism. These are people who would never do something kind without an audience to praise them for it. But they do like to be seen as "good guys" much of the time.

    3. Sarah and Medusa: You guys are wonderful. I'm very late to this, but your words truly speaks of what I always thought about this Narcisstic lady gaga who never have enough of attentions and to look like she is a god. Your explanations of a narc is spot-on. my experiences with many of them truly parallel with what Sarah described. What a narc like to do is look good in the definition of good depending on society they are in. Thanks for speaking it out.

  27. Even her humanitarian efforts are for appearance's sake. This is extremely common for narcissists.

    Her entire persona is based on the assumption that her every move will be scrutinized. If she were not expecting to be put under a microscope, would she be such an obvious "humanitarian"? Um, do you think it would be in her best interest to demonstrate antisocial tendencies? Of course not. She simply has made a choice to treat her "self" as a product.

    If you ask me, this is the ultimate form of dissociation. -I wouldn't be surprised if she was a borderline.

    I saw her being interviewed before a performance where she was so swept away thinking about pleasing her fans (who knows what was actually going on with her...she was crying. I didn't think the tears were fake, however, I do think she was pleased they came at a convenient time -on camera!)

    Whatever that was, it was fucking dramatic. She is exploiting herself. It's genius. She knows exactly what she's doing.

  32. Strange. I thought it was antisocial, Machiavellian AND narcissistic traits that come together to create a psychopath, rather than being separate entities. The interviewee has a flawed definition of psychopathy and it's because people like him that there are twenty different versions of psychopathy. Psychopaths are the strong gang member, and the narcissist is a charmer? So psychopaths can't be charming either? These generalizations are dumb.

    3. "Here is where some get stuck, because many people secretly and not so secretly hope they live long enough to see the sociopath finally suffer. Well, if you can enjoy another’s suffering what makes you different from the sociopath?

      If we examine the reasons why we would take pleasure in a sociopath’s suffering, we see there are two basic reasons. One is revenge and the other is our ability to consider the sociopath as “inhuman.” If a sociopath is not really human, then it is OK to enjoy that private moment of our imagined revenge.

      There are therefore two basic routes to sadism. The first is through the power motive. Revenge is about reasserting power over someone who has robbed us of power. The power motive is also called the social dominance drive.

      I am grateful to Caesar Milan the dog whisperer, for educating the public about dominance. We all know that a dominant dog has no problem inflicting pain on underlings to assert his dominance.

      The second route to sadism is called “compartmentalization” by psychologists. A person who compartmentalizes has a motive (drive) to inflict pain on someone and so rationalizes it by saying that the other person is inhuman or “deserves it.”

      Interestingly, both routes to sadism operate in sociopaths. Jack Levin and others have written a great deal about compartmentalization in sociopaths. Sociopaths are also ruled by the power motive and so enjoy hurting because it is confirmation they are achieving power.

      That gets me to warped empathy. Many, including Jack Levin, have pointed to the faulty logic behind the idea that sociopaths lack empathy. If sociopaths lack empathy then how can they enjoy another’s suffering? If they can’t identify other’s emotions how can they know they are inflicting pain and so get enjoyment? Is there any question that the sociopath that hurt you knew you were suffering?

      Most of us have seen clearly the sadism of sociopaths, so we know they must have some kind of warped empathy. Empathy should lead to sympathy with another’s suffering not pleasure in another’s suffering.

      In 1982, while reporting the results of a very well done study in which he found that violent sociopaths of normal to high intelligence actually have increased empathy, Heilburn* made the following statement:

      “One way to interpret these results would be in terms of a sadistic, effective-processing psychopathic model of violence in which inflicting pain or distress upon another is arousing and reinforcing (pleasurable). Such a model would assume that acts inflicting pain are more intentional than impulsive and that empathic skills promote arousal and sadistic reinforcement (pleasure) by enhancing the psychopath’s awareness of the pain and distress being experienced by the victim.”

      Now in 2008 researchers have obtained results that confirm Heilburn’s theory.

      Researcher Jean Decety from the University of Chicago found that young sociopath’s brains light up with pleasure when they experience another’s suffering. In this study, the pleasure was especially present when the suffering was being inflicted by another person. How did the researchers demonstrate this? They showed violent movie clips to sociopaths and non-sociopaths then used fMRI to scan their brains.

      Most importantly, the study showed no abnormality of the brain pathways involved in empathy. Sociopath’s empathy centers appeared to function just fine."

  48. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sadistic_personality_disorder

    Sadistic personality disorder is:

    A) A pervasive pattern of cruel, demeaning, and aggressive behavior, beginning by early adulthood, as indicated by the repeated occurrence of at least four of the following:

    1. Has used physical cruelty or violence for the purpose of establishing dominance in a relationship (not merely to achieve some non-interpersonal goal, such as striking someone in order to rob him/her).
    2. Humiliates or demeans people in the presence of others.
    3. Has treated or disciplined someone under his/her control unusually harshly.
    4. Is amused by, or takes pleasure in, the psychological or physical suffering of others (including animals).
    5. Has lied for the purpose of harming or inflicting pain on others (not merely to achieve some other goal).
    6. Gets other people to do what he/she wants by frightening them (through intimidation or even terror).
    7. Restricts the autonomy of people with whom he or she has a close relationship, e.g., will not let spouse leave the house unaccompanied.
    8. Is fascinated by violence, weapons, injury, or torture.

You think you are falling in love with a person, but you are really falling in love with yourself. However, since you cannot see yourself, you need him to show you. As he has a flexible self, he is, essentially, a mirror. You fall in love with your face in the mirror.


    However, it is not because you are a Narcissist. It is because you are an Echo.

    1. Gee Monica. You seem to have an unusual proclivity for find people with sociopaths in their lives. It couldn't be that you're seeing whatever the FUCK you want in things. Fuck you're an idiot.

  50. So everyone who is charismatic and likable is a sociopath these days? Interesting. And very telling about the motivations of some of the posters here.

    1. Who said that? Most charismatic people aren't sociopaths.. Plus, a sociopath couldn't be described as charismatic, because it's fake.

    2. It's the special snowflake syndrome that's really going on with Gaga and 95 percent of the posters here...

      Delete
    3. "Special snowflake" that term is lame as fuck and you aspies can't get enough of it.

      Delete
    4. "Sociopath" by definition is a person who is very defiant against the norms of the society and thus gets in trouble with the law a lot. Lady Gaga is on the narcissistic or histrionic spectrum but probably won't even qualify for a PD.

    2. I find it funny that people think I'm a leader. In the alpha/beta wolf pack mentality, i'm more of a loner. I've had this debate with Friend many times. Usually alphas need a pack. He thinks because I don't need one or want one, it's the same thing, maybe more. Personally idk, or care.

    3. No Haven. You have it all wrong. You are what Monica says you are. She can feel things in her psychic cold spot. I am your humble follower. What think you of that?

  52. Notice how Haven acts aggressive and hostile from mingling with the sociopaths. Their ideas and outlook are influencing her, because she has zero sense of identity. Quite sad.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Or it could be that I've always had anger issues and, as previously mentioned, very drunk. Which makes naturally hostile. I haven't been mingling with the sociopaths as the only ones I've been talking to are beepers, anons, and idiots. So,please, continue with your lack of intellectual arguments.

      Delete
    2. But the beepers act more psychopathic in here and that influences your identities as a whole. We all know you have a big heart.

      Delete
    3. I do have a big heart when I'm attached to someone or relate to them in some way. Just because I have a flexible identity doesn't mean that just anyone can influence it though. The flexible sense of self comes into play when I am attached to someone and afraid of losing them. WHich doesn't apply to anyone here.

      Anonymous on the internet I can act out however the hell I feel like acting at the time. Which is actually, part of who I am.

      Delete
  53. On Haven's blog she's all nicey nice to her readers, crying over beaten up protesters and feeding starving children, then morphs into badass sociopath once she's here. No wonder you are predator bait.

    1. Aw gee... someone reads my blog. And all the comments. And is trying to be tough here.

      Surprise moron, I'm not a static personality. There are many facets to me. I've often raged on my own blog. And my readers aren't making retarded statements about things that may or may not be true. They relate to what I write and contribute their own actual experiences. This is different than rampant psychological speculation. Way to not understand the difference between what goes on here and what I appreciate in people that relate to what I write.

      Delete
    2. Stop acting like something you are not, Haven. Embrace me.

      Delete
    3. I'll embrace you when you show me something I value, or that turns me on.

    4. I know you better than you know yourself, Haven. Those sly remarks won't push me away. I know that you aren't as big as you think you are. I'm the only friend you have, Haven. Love your weakness.

      Delete
    5. Amusingly I've never used razors. I'm sure I"m not as big as I think, haha, but for me that's a BDD joke.

      My strength is in being able to see myself more objectively than most, embracing what I appreciate, and working to change what I don't.

      Delete
    6. Haven, it's sad to think of how insignificant we all are in the grand scheme of things, isn't it? When we value that knowledge, then other peoples dislike of ourselves begins to vanish. Don't feel guilty if you need to release.

      Delete
    7. It's sad? No, it's not. It's just life. As individuals, as a race, as a species, as a planet, as a solar system, we are completely insignificant in the universe. It's not sad, it's just life. I've happy to have mine, which is why I'm trying to heal myself and live better, but I have no delusions about the existence of people in general. It doesn't bother me at all. The meaning of life is what we define it to be.

  56. something all sociopaths are good at is spotting fakes. seeing nerds act like blacks and kids smoking just to fit in, it really gave me a feeling of superiority. i wanted to kill these people for being that pathetic and what made it worse was i wasn't popular, but i'm chosen.

  60. the most self centered fucks are those who say that victims of bullying deserve the abuse for not being strong enough to fight back, rather than empathize with the sufferer. what's funny is the victim hating narcissists and psychopaths claim the victims are the selfish ones, which is typical of people without empathy. it's part of the kill or be killed mentality they have.

    1. Of course they're weak. Someone slaps you in the face, you punch them harder. If they mock you, you punch the leader in the face and the others will run away and respect you. Weak people just stand there like morons and get picked on all day without reacting. How can people blame the bullies after that? I never understood why people have balls enough to end their lives instead of punching some idiot in the face. And don't tell me it isn't true. I've never seen anyone that stood up for themselves getting bullied.

  67. Raven, your writing is powerful when you mirror people.

    I am trying to respond to you but I am going off in all directions.
    I do some projecting with you, but I have humour about myself. I am bipolar, I have been called profound and witchy and I see some stuff in you that looks familiar. I don't want to voice it when I see myself in others here anymore, because I think it's a trap for everyone. But that's where my comment comes from.

  68. If Lady Gaga is going around saying she's a sociopath, she's just doing it to be controversial/for attention.

    You don't need to be pathological to have a good PR team, but I have a feeling she has a few screws loose. Which ones though, it's hard to tell.

    ReplyDelete
  69. Change is not good.. :-( I'm sorry I missed a of that conversation. Ihave sharp opinions formulated on lady Gaga for no reason and I would have loved to discuss them with the educated on theater med. I guess I can see the benefits though. My comments will go down significantly., and I assume for most that's a good thing. Monica must be thrilled.
