It’s come back up.
A clip of a girl making herself vomit on Lady Gaga during her SXSW performance in 2014 has resurfaced online — and the bile hasn’t aged well.
Gaga, 36, incorporated performance artist Millie Brown into her choreography for “Swine” on the Austin festival.
The British upchucker stuck her fingers down her throat and regurgitated a nasty green liquid on the pop star’s breasts through the set.
Gaga continued to sing without missing a beat, later sharing a nauseating robotic pig ride with Brown.
A video of the performance has gone viral again, because of right-wing podcaster Elijah Schaffer tweeting Thursday: “Why are we not talking about Lady GaGa having a young girl vomit on her chest during a performance?”
“Societal decay,” one Twitter user commented on the resurfaced video.
“That is sick….and never in a superb way by any means,” one other noted.
“Wow so deep, so artistic. These people have to go,” a 3rd mocked.
“Things are devolving fast in that world — wow,” one other user declared.
Brown describes herself as a vomit artist and — before the SXSW stunt — was best known for ralphing colourful milk on canvas to supply her rainbow pieces, which she claimed sold for $20,000.
She told Vice on the time that she agreed to work with Lady Gaga after turning down other collab requests since the Mother Monster “understood what it was all about.”
“She appreciates performance art. So doing that stuff live together with her, with that form of energy from the group, was really amazing,” Brown explained.
“It worked really amazingly with that song and the concept of purging all that bad energy and eliminating it.”
Not everyone understood or supported Brown’s vision for the performance back then or now.
Pop star Demi Lovato accused Gaga of glamorizing eating disorders in 2014. “Sad… As if we didn’t have enough people glamorizing eat disorders already. Bottom line, it’s not “cool” or “artsy” in any respect,” she tweeted on the time.
Lovato, 30, has shared her eating disorder struggles through the years. She’s even admitted her team once “barricaded” her in her hotel room to manage her binge-and-purge tendency.
Brown addressed Lovato’s criticism in her Vice interview: “We didn’t glamorize anything. All of my performances are supposed to encourage viewers to query the concept of classic beauty and femininity, somewhat than perpetuate those standards women and girls are faced with day by day; those that cause eating disorders in the primary place.”
