Britney showed with Glory that becoming a Vegas act doesn't suddenly become unviable. It makes sense that Gaga is doing this. Touring is too much for her medical regimen but she lives for the stage. When she starts this residency she'll sell out every. single. night. It's not going to harm her brand. She's still gonna show up at The Grammy's. She's still going to do the odd Ellen performance. She's not going to let her brand die because she has the privilege of doing her show in one location. The geepee doesn't keep track of how many continents an act is performing on. They keep track of the last time they saw them on TV, and Gaga knows hustle. She isn't going to let that slide away.
 
I think if anyone needs it explained how Joanne and the 2 years preceding it helped repair Gaga’s public reputation immensely then they probably aren’t going to get it. Which is funny, because it’s not that complicated. You can say it was the Super Bowl #impact, but the fact of the matter is, the NFL heard Joanne and chose to book her off that and the reputation she built as a phenomenal performer throughout 2014-2015.

I'm glad you've changed your argument to something more reasonable. But in regards to the bolded well it's only a #fact in the sense that she said it, lord knows she could have just as easily booked the Super Bowl after Artpop V2, if Joanne had really been the deciding factor she would have chosen to perform more than 1 song from it.

The idea that cheek to cheek, Joanne, and this residency would have come as and when they did without Artpop...well I'm either reading that wrong or it's the kind of stan delusional only you're capable of.

Actually, they probably would have come sooner, seeing as she had been exploring the idea of a jazz album in 2010. She was also talking about stripping it all back during the Born This Way campaign, and has brought up the idea of doing an “acoustic” album several times between 2009-2013. ARTPOP only happened because that’s what fans demanded of her and she had no desire to write.

No, my argument is still the same hun. I just worded it so you’d be able to get your head around it. Yet you’ve still managed to try and twist something you have no idea about for your narrative.
 
Not nearly as devoted as the blind and extremely defensive stanning certain artists seem to compel.

Boring response just because we defend her doesn't mean we're arrogant brown nosers. The way you're trying to diminish Gaga's successful year is just boring and predictable because you would still say the same if she had a number one on the hot 100
 
Please explain the bolded and how anything about this Vegas residency shows concern for any aspect of her legacy besides the financial.

Lady Gaga is the next Michael Jackson and that's a fact!
You can look it up!

Ok so we agree they wouldn't have come at the same time then.

A bold faced lie. There is really no need to get this defensive all the time, it hinders discussion.

Please quote where I gave a specific time frame as to when these things would happen. That must have been something else you made up to fit your narrative, because I only recall saying they would have happened regardless based on the type of artist she’s proven to be over the past decade. Maybe go back and actually read the posts this time while you’re at it.

The lie is you saying your argument didn't change when it clearly went from:

Howling at people still trashing Joanne as if it didn’t singlehandedly and successfully cause her stock to rise for the first time in nearly 8 years.

to:

...Joanne and the 2 years preceding it...

Again, please stop with the defensive insults, this is a forum not a stan propaganda platform.

Except my argument has remained the same. It seems you’re the only one who didn’t understand, but that’s not really my problem, sorry! Hopefully next time you’ll come prepared with facts instead of a personal agenda that only hinders your own argument.
 
I hope there isn’t some long-winded (or half the show even) Jazz portion. But I feel like there will be because she’ll want to show that side off AND it’s very Vegas.
 
A reason to believe that had more to do with the audio visual content of the Joanne era than relatively low ticket prices and a performance at the Super Bowl lol.

Relatively low ticket prices? You're spewing shit out of your asshole with nothing to back it up. Yes, the Super Bowl helped promote her tour. However the tickets weren't cheap. Tickets in the nosebleeds were 100+ dollars. Look at the tour gross and average ticket prices. You're clearly some sort of hater looking to stir the pot and while you're not really worth replying to, I didn't spend a couple grande on tickets to a few shows to be told the tour was "cheap."

Source for this? I remember seeing floor seats in NY in the $60 range.

A stadium show with a massive floor is obviously an exception.

Below is the official ticket site for the Vegas show. As you can see the cheapest tickets available (still remaining) are $225 and a section up top is orange, meaning tickets are still available. That would suggest that tickets in the nose bleed even were $225.

I was speaking from anecdotal experience (which I clearly stated in the bit you quoted) the same way you are when telling me nosebleeds were 100+. Not sure what the vegas show prices have to do with this and I didn't mean to offend you or your purchasing decisions.
