Failed to show at Purdue University for her scheduled performance last night, costing her fans hundreds of dollars each and pissing off thousands:mad:...

I don't care for her or her music, but to rip people off by having them sit through two **** opening acts (no refunds as a result) and then not show is BS. People drove hundreds of miles in some cases to see her and this is what they got for their time...

    Show is being rescheduled on the 26th or something. This crap was all over the radio.



    On the other hand, if she's having heart palpatations, then she has no business performing, and nobody has the place to get pissed about it.

    the story I know is only what appeared in the paper today and have not heard any updates... I hope she is feeling better if it was that serious. Living a couple miles away from the campus will give a somewhat distorted perspective.

    According to this, she was not treaded at all... by anyone. If she was as ill as was reported, West Lafayette police of paramedics, and the campus security/EMT's were not aware. The speculation is she wanted to be well rested for her appearamce on Oprah that went off on time and as planned...http://crabbygolightly.com/mt/2010/01/_lady_gaga_cancels_show_due_to_sudden_illness_but_is_no-show_at_area_hospitals.html

    Weird, all the local radio stations were talking about severe exhaustion and heart palpatations. Well, either way, she's rescheduling the show. Ah well. No skin off my back. :p

    Monitor cleanup on Aisle One!

    That's the funniest thing I've read so far today.

    EDIT:
    Just think of the possibilities! In the twilight of her career, Ms Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta hits the golden oldies State Fair circuit, touring with the Goo Goo Dolls. Sponsored by Google. Audiences would all be agog.

    Dangit Demi, you beat me to it!

    I was gonna say "Lady Gaga's effeminate irish cousin", but yours works better.

    Tough week for Purdue University. Ranked #4 in the country in Basketball, then lose two games in a row and now no Lady Gaga. For the love of humanity, how could she add to the agony for the Boilermaker faithful.
