I saw paparazzi as a mix of the 'film' and 'reality' -- like the actors were in a film during part of it then, when she was thrown off the balcony, it was the real 'actor' ... or something like that.

What I saw it mostly as was two people (Gaga and her b'freind) using the Papparazzi to stay famous. Reminded me of the brief fetish for 'my own TV reality show' and the folks who commited various crimes to get one (the guy with the little kid and the weather ballon, the two folks who crashed the White House party).

Bad Romance bothered me because some of the fantasy elements were ones that freak me out (kidnapping, some sort of unwilling enslavement thing going on, rape).

Machine gun bras? Good clean fun! Kidnapping, drugging and forcing someone to be a sex toy (unwillingly)? Where's the warning before the text cut!!???!!
