TWEEPS REACT Reacting to the teaser posted by Lady Gaga, tweeps were excited about the multi-talented star's role in Joker: Folie Deux.
Not gonna lie, I wanna Gaga to win her Oscar for this. Just to watch the ensuing chaos, wrote one tweep.
Y'all can say whatever y'all want but this woman is working her ass off and deserves her success, wrote another tweep.
I think this great. This first movie was great too. Not an all time classic but a good, straightforward edgy movie. If you don't like edgy movies, stop watching them and let us edgelords bathe in the tripe.
