Miley Cyrus and Lady Gaga both had the same reaction from me initially. Over the top fake-seeming personalities and songs…seeking shock factor through meat dresses and on-stage vulgarities.
I judged. Wasn’t curious. Ted Lasso faux pas.
Then one Thanksgiving Lady Gaga did a special with The Muppets. I watched that and completely 180’d on her. She was so sincere and honest during the whole thing, I was floored. Then I watched Gaga: Five Foot Two on Netflix and saw an honest person for the second time. Not a character. Then she was a character in A Star Is Born and I was floored by the talent and amazing performance.
My journey with Miley was more a musical discovery. Her rough-fucking-hewn lumber/gravel road voice is fantastic. As I gave her a chance and listened to more of her music, I appreciated her more.
Curiosity beats judgement. Be good, do good.
I love the message of this one. A good reminder for me, always. To let go of judgement. What a gift to ourselves, and to everyone around us.
