akbar shows his inner hipster!

I showed my inner hipster by confessing to liking a very popular song? Lol

Then she went mainstream and started wearing suits made out of meat while making an entrance to an award show inside a freaking egg.


Pokerface is still a banger though.

She was always a tad weird. But the was just eh.

Bad Romance is a much, much better song

But also dissing her for selling herself out when she turned mainstream. You, like myself, could probably just point out that your favorite band is pretty mainstream when someone calls you a hipster lol. I mean, you like a power pop band.

Having success = going mainstream. God forbid anyone should want to be successful at what they so

Not necessarily. You can have success without the mainstream and vice versa.

You've got it wrong, I was just making a little joke about him saying Gaga hitting mainstream but still remaining the New York girl yet doing these freaky shit.


And about your second case, while you do have a point except that where I'm from it's a very hip hop dance music in the popular. So for me to say my favourite band is an act from the 90's would actually put me in the minority. Lol

It's all a matter of nitpicky perception. But I was being facetious. Any time anyone achieves a measure of success, there is a certain group of people who will say they have "gone mainstream" or "sold out", which is just bullshit.
