I've used this forum to say some mean things about pop music/media sensation Lady Gaga. Like here and here and especially here.
However, after watching an interview that Anderson Cooper did with her on 60 Minutes last night, I now have a better understanding of what she's doing. I can't go so far as to say that I'm a fan (I'm probably a tad too heterosexual to ever develop an appreciation for dance pop music, in spite of what my use of words like "tad" might indicate) but I do have a newfound measure of respect for her as an artist now. So, you know...

Sorry about that.
