The problem is that she was never asked about this in an interview. This is one of the endless questions that would have interested to ask Amy.
I personally believe that it was an attempt to 'restart' her life and start from scratch (she looked a bit healthy in blond hair for example the pictures with Mark). Sad it didn't work though.
And she was way more beautiful than Lady Gaga who I think became famous in 2009?
God, I have a friend who's a big fan of Gaga, acts like she's the best thing since sliced bread. Calls Amy's music boring. She likes to give me hell sometimes about how she's better than Amy, lol. It's for fun, but sometimes I take it a little too seriously.
As a former Gaga stan myself I disagree. There are far better acts than her. I'm not saying she's bad, either but too much of her stuff is mechanized pop. Not musically great. Amy was more beautiful than her, inside and out. Amy may have a smaller vocal range but Gaga does not have the same skill level. Undeniably, both women have distinctive vocals. Gaga would not be here without Amy. Amy's first Rolling Stone cover in 2007 inspired Gaga to continue pursing her career despite being told she was too ugly to make it far.
Lately, Stefani Germanotta has been a slave to the music industry and honestly has been since she was convinced to go from rock to pop in order to succeed. She hasn't had a good album in years. She dyed her hair blond so she wouldn't get confused with Amy. Gaga is a little too crazy for my liking, sometimes too much about the image and less about the music. Personally, I care about the music far more than the image. Music is heard, not seen.
She's a good actor, makes me think of how good Amy would have been if she ever went Hollywood, she would have been a great actress from what I hear and seen of her theater performances at Sylvia Young's, but doesn't sound like something she would have pursued, sadly.
I'm not trashing Gaga, she's another artist who changed my life.
