Gonna build on this thread in a slow roll. All of the smitten fans giggle and no one thinks to ask "what do you mean 'from Korean babies'. Ellen and Sandra Bullock talk about skin care. Isn't it cute? I've been led to believe that "they" are telling us... https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=PwO3TEj9-5g
So blasé about the source. Everyone giggles. As I stroll through this journey, "they just say these things for shock value, for laughs, to make light of our pursuit of the fountain of youth."
"They are telling us" exactly what they're doing... https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=b7JzdcZPvzg

Our collective response is an uncomfortable giggle, dismissal, denial. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the darker side of TV, I loved Lady Gaga and the tapping into ones dark side for a performance. I always waved it off as tormented soul artistry. As a writer, I understand it...
...but I can't help but think, is there a deeper message here than "dark fantasy horror" artistry. How much of a challenge was it really for Gaga to explore her dark side? Symbolism all over, right in front of our faces. I'll be adding to this thread.
