[@biteme263]

@@eileenmccarthy7392 I think some of it is the parts she has played and maybe how she gets steered in interviews. And she seems to be changing over time. I mean she isn't the deepest person I have seen but I don't hate her. And there always seems to be that one person that shouldn't be on these panels. She is for sure the one on this one. Nothing she has done even comes remotely close to the rest of these women and I think she knows it. I bet Gaga thought it was her since she has little experience but it isn't. Both her work on AHS and her movie she just knocked it out of the park. And like she has said, she is trained actor she just never got to do it before.

I think a discussion on metoo could have been added onto that, instead of taking time out of the professional discussion to do so.

Glenn Close is actually way better than Meryl in terms of ACTING. Glenn did a lot of different roles and all slayed them. Meryl is just closer to the people in Hollywood that's why she's getting all these oscars. When in fact, the 2012 best actress was actually for Glenn.

[@dianaanonymous5794]

To be honest I think Lady Gaga's questions brought the conversation to a more human aspect rather than just "you're a woman...talk about the me too movement". Because she's new to acting and she seems very interested in what the others have to say about ALLthe things: technicalities, what their personal lives are like...Gaga makes this thing better, I think. (which isn't to say that the others aren't good as well; they are all equally great )

[@Tkramer27]

Gaga does make things better, she’s brilliant, wildly intuitive and a genius.

[@DiegoGarcia-uh1jt]

You are right. It helps since she seems more drawn to acting than actual singing and that's ironic with that gifted voice.

[@marias7599]

She was very insightful in her comments and I loved it.

[@biteme263]

Gaga is one of the most interesting women of my lifetime I think. I thought she was such a weirdo when she first started getting popular. However the more I learned about and saw her the more I fell in love with her. I don't think there is anything she couldn't do if she wanted to. And she is so nice on top of it. Pink is another one that I think is pretty amazing. Neither of them really sing the kind of music I like ( I am a older male) but they have so much freaking talent.

[@LaDeeDah]

Yeah this guy interviewing is a bafoon

[@charltonbasson1512]

kathryn seems like she'll be fun to go drink with. rachel is just so eloquent and feels so ethereal but also down to earth. nicole is such an enigma but when she starts to talk you can hear her drawing back those curtains. regina is soooooooooo powerful, the way she uses her voice, her stares, she seems like she truly experiences life viscerally. glenn is so wise and so poised. she feels like a mother that never scolds, but always tries to make you see the lesson in everything. gaga became such a human in this video. the times the other actresses would talk about their roles, their children and the careers they've had- she would just sit and listen and yearn. it was beautiful to see. she really seemed so interested and she looked she was incredibly humbled to sit amongst them.

[@Razzles819]

Very well said! Agree about Lady gaga, although Ive known that she has a deep, thoughtful, inciteful, vulnerabile side about her for while now. What I found interesting was how she was so engaged, And really seemed to soak it all in and value the rest of the women's advice and insight from their storied careers and experience with acting. Although she is "new" to acting, I was still very impressed with her answers and self awareness for it being her first film. Im very excited to see where her acting careers moves to, especially since she has the talent to combine her music career into anything she does. Shes a force to be reckoned with, in my opinion. I also really enjoyed everybody else's answers and for the women I am not as familiar with, this made me want to see more of their work!

"Lady Gaga IQ is estimated at 166, which is considered as a genius and in top 0.1% the population of the world." Stephen hawking's iq was 160 and einstein's iq is estimated to be about the same as hawking. that would set lady gaga's iq to be higher than both.

I'm not even a gaga fan lol it was just to prove how smart she is, not saying that she's more important than any of the two aforementioned.

[@Caro_BlackMagdalene]

Gaga got in Tisch School of the Arts at NYU at the early age of 17 years old when only a group of 20 people get that chance to enter early, she is a genius! And the way she handled her career, putting a deep concept and meaning behind every live performance she did, every fashion outfit had something to do with the visuals she envisioned for each album of hers and specifically each single she released, from the clothes, to the music video to the live performances, the red carpets, the fashion from Hotel to her cars letting paparazzi take her picture so the media focused on that and not her personal life, everything was so well thought, genius! And you can't deny every other pop star wanted to imitate her style, fashion & performances after her, before no musician was seen wearing high couture from designers, after her every award show was full of crazy over the top outfits, makeup and wigs lol you have to push the boundaries to change the World and she did, she made everyone uncomfortable but that gave us iconic pop culture moments that nobody will ever forget.

It’s not equality that the male artists are allowed to talk about anything and women are just allowed to talk about being women, it’s reductive.

[@Youokhun]

Mina F what if this is the first video someone sees, and they’re introduced opinions directly from actresses about this movement? That’s the whole point about PR and exposure.. it’s so important to keep talking about something and keep it in peoples minds. Compare it to a missing persons case, you have to keep it in the news and headlines and on the streets to keep the case moving! So if someone watched this for the first time, and learned something or heard of the movement for the first time, I think that’s worth it. Would you agree?

[@MinaF99]

Em Em No. On what planet. The only people watching an hour long oscars round table are people who are at least somewhat into the movie industry, and NONE of those people aren’t well aware of what Me Too is. My grandmother knows what Me Too is. They’ve talked about it, and talked about it again, they talked about it last year. Let women talk about something else, I’ll repeat, it’s reductive.

[@Youokhun]

Mina F don’t be ignorant, you can’t assume everyone knows about a topic that is specific to Hollywood. Hollywood is in the U.S, think of people outside the U.S., even people outside of the EU. It is important to keep talking about this, it can change a lot in the world for women.

Yes, there seems to be a huge aversion these days towards actors turning directors. They are still considered actors. Look at the Oscars, the directors branch didn't nominate Bradley Cooper even though everyone agreed he had one of the best directed movies of the year. Same happened with Ben Affleck. It just seems directors are less welcoming...

Despite the long wait it was worth it as always. Rachel and gaga connected beautifully at some point.

They didnt even let her talk about the favourite like that!

She´s so underrated as an actress but she´s always great and also, down to earth.

[@Branner]

It's a shame he started there and they went on and on about the current climate instead of allowing these fine actors to discuss their craft. By starting the discussion there, the mediator immediately put the emphasis on the more generic notion of "women" instead of focusing their individual work and achievements. Tiresome.

[@mariemachelle]

That's why I think they should have a mix of men and women in these talks

[@lt7172]

Branner it’s a prerequisite for the women roundtables every year and I’m so tired of it. By actually talking about their art is what is proving women have great stories to tell. None of the women’s performances were the same and yet they get little time to explore the many facets of being complicated and complex women through their roles. I wish actresses would refuse to answer these questions and just talk about their art the same way the men’s roundtables get to do every year, no matter the controversies in the industry. Which is I prefer all the other panels save for the women’s.
