A moment to talk about Marc (MarcMonster)
A moment to talk about Marc (MarcMonster)
I'd like to take a moment to talk about one of my friends, Marc. I've known Marc since 2010 when we were hanging out after the Auburn Hills monster ball. We went together and he met gaga for the first time, and I my second time. It was a great night, and since then, I've been very happy to see him meet her since then.
Marc gets an absolutely disgusting amount of hate for doing something you all would do if you had the chance. Just because he happens to live in areas where she visits a a lot (LA/NYC), doesn't mean that he is a bad person. I also don't like when people use the excuse of him "being rich" or "having money" and then blame him for it. I do pretty much exactly the same thing as Marc. We wait outside, we sacrifice time and effort in order to see her, and yeah, we pay money to be able to travel. However, when you bully someone because they meet her because they're "rich", it's a lie. I have had jobs in order to do this. I work extra hours, I save up, but also pay for things I need in life, but I also put forth some money towards gaga things I want to do. I worked hard and saved money for 2 years in order to go to the 19 BTWB's that I was supposed to attend.
Have most of you even met Marc? Those of us who hang out with him actually know that he is extremely kind, caring and helpful. He is not pushing anyone, he is not "taking away others chances". Gaga knows him, and just because she recognizes him and decides to take a photo with him, why are you mad at Marc? It's not his fault she loves her fans. Marc has helped several people I know to meet gaga for the first time. When you see all the tweets saying "Oh...I met Marc and he's actually nice", it's because he is.
If you want to meet gaga, save your money, do your research and sit down outside of wherever she is for hours. If that's not something you are able to do because of age, location, or life situation, there's no reason to bully and be rude to someone else just because they can.
Please feel free to discuss in comments. No straight up hate, just conversation, I'm genuinely confused as to why such a nice kid gets such HATE. I realize it's mostly jealousy, but still. It's unacceptable.
