God yes. I love her music, but the woman is a gigantic narcissist. The whole meditation thing just makes it look like she's trying to be Madonna all over again. It was pretentious and ludicrous when Madonna went all Kabbalah, but at least her pretentiousness was somehow her own. Gaga just comes across as a...I guess "poseur" is the only good word. I'll still listen to her new album though, and probably love it.
