People have an issue with hard working bankers making millions but people applaude singers, moview stars and sport stars making a killing....

With bankers they use (steal) people's money to make their own. People use their OWN cash to pay for concerts, movies, and sporting events! And at least with getting screwed with the price of a ticket for the show, the people know, usually what they are getting. I only have myself to blame if I get screwed because of a bad performance.

With bankers, it's not their money they lose when things go wrong, and then they still get paid.

And you wonder why people have issues with it?

It's legitimate so why not? Not to mention Lady Gaga's support for the charities.

I guess only religious fanatics and sour grapes have a problem with her.

Musicians must make their money off tour concerts now, not CD/song sales.

But are they happy?

@bfg4987 ...? You didn't realize that Gaga is actually one of the few celebrity singers like Beyonce that's actually talented and doesn't need auto tune to sing well? You should hear her live, she's great.

Beiber of course is a sack of shit.

^which is why when you see Gaga or Beiber, you're probably paying upwards of $200 for a ticket!!! No thanks

@WaxmanL She has to pay US income tax/ If she lives in Nevada, she does not have to pay state income tax. US income tax is heavy, /People like her have accountant to take care of. Many entertainers have their mansions in vicinity of Las Vegas. Often sales of such mansions are advertised, like 11 bathrooms, etc. Many have elevator ,too, Income tax of majority of States are heavy.

She get sued and criticized by Catholic. Then she becomes more popular. She is international/ Not only singing but she can dance, too. Only 27 years old and top rated in many countries. She is probably happier than low income people.

I have a great respect to all talents who make something from NOTHING.

God Created Everything in His Image.

It can be interpreted as everyone has a unique talent to offer to each other in society to make this world a better place to live.

Crappiest form of music out there: Pop. Congratulations if you're dumb enough to buy this.
