Lady Gaga + Star Trek = A Match Made on LJ

[therumjournals]

For some reason, Lady Gaga and Star Trek fandom have become inextricably linked in my mind, and I'm sure in the minds of many others. So I decided to compile a sort of list of Lady Gaga-inspired fandom creations.

The scary thing is, these are the ones I came up with off the top of my head, without any additional research. Clearly, I have issues. So I'm sure are more out there! Let me know of any others you can think of in the comments and I'll add them to the list. Feel free to spread the word!

ooooh, yeah, i remember that one, that was a good one! :-) i added it!

[withthepilot.livejournal.com]

Ooh, thank you for the pimpage, hon!

I also wrote Love You With My Hands Tied (http://withthepilot.livejournal.com/35771.html) (Zach/Karl), which doesn't use GaGa as a plot device (lolz) but takes its title from "Teeth."

[therumjournals.livejournal.com]

Teeth is so popular! also i think we now have, like, every pairing represented here!

omg it's so true. the scary part is that i first heard about lady gaga through a pinto fic less summer. then i started seeing poker face popping up everywhere in regards to spock. XD

I <3 our fandoms. also, why don't i have a st or pinto - l.gaga icon somewhere. this makes no sense to me.

[therumjournals.livejournal.com]

i don't have a lady gaga icon either! tragic, is what it is.

That Poker Face vid just made me wonder - have you read a fic where Spock plays poker?

I'm not all that well-read in Reboot fic yet but I haven't seen one.

I'd love to see a fic where Spock hustles a poker game - for logical reasons of course :)

[therumjournals.livejournal.com]

i haven't read anything like that, but yeah, it seems like there should be something out there, huh

[tinocka.livejournal.com]

Heh, I have not even heard about Lady Gaga until Pinto... (I don´t listen to radio and don´t watch music-focused programs/chanells) And suddenly my iPod is FULL of her :D

That mirror one made me LOL IRL :D

[therumjournals.livejournal.com]

lady gaga and pinto are both addictive, so it makes sense!

[ladyblahblah.livejournal.com]

Oh dear lord the Pinto macro is THE GREATEST THING EVER!!! XDDDDD

[therumjournals.livejournal.com]

i know, right! i love that one.

[li-ll.livejournal.com]

I dunno if this counts, but part 7 of the Kirk/McCoy fic "I Knead You (A Bakery AU)" (http://community.livejournal.com/braintwin_bamfs/2125.html#cutid1) features a Love Game ringtone. Kirk's l33t hax0r skills are at it again ^_^

[therumjournals.livejournal.com]

oooh, i need to read that! is it still a WIP or is it complete?? that's awesome.

[li-ll.livejournal.com]

It's a WIP but totally worth the wait for each installment. Especially if you're like me and have an insatiable daddy!Bones kink, or enjoy a good neurotic!accountant!Spock ;)

[hilsongirl.livejournal.com]

to this day I think of KU when I hear that line about sexy cupid in Love Game

[therumjournals.livejournal.com]

exactly! it gets ingrained in your head and never comes out!
