Apologies. No time is a good time to see that...

'Vomit artist' Millie Brown - who has worked with GaGa many times in the past, and has had her 'works of art' declined by the dealers on Four Rooms - has tried to dress up her SXSW performance with the singer by claiming it was "powerful".

Brown told ELLE magazine: "I wasn't expecting so many reactions from it (sure you weren't). It was quite a powerful performance. I love working with her because she really understands performance art. Both of our performances are different in many ways, but we both have the same core ideas. Working together is just quite powerful."

Those "core ideas" being to "shock" people by attempting to make gross things sexy. Because that's their definition of power right there.

The performance was slammed by former bulimia sufferer Demi Lovato on Twitter, who maintained that Millie sticking her fingers down her throat and regurgitating on Gaga during her rendition of Swine was glamorising eating disorders.

The British artist - whose vomit paintings sell for around $20,000 for some reason - believes that criticism is a vital part of her work, but insists she isn't promoting bulimia.

Millie added: "I've seen a lot of positive and negative reactions to my work. I think they're both equally as important because it's causing people to really think about what art and freedom of expression means (in short, it's all about the setting. If that took place on the side of the road, would it be 'art'. Doubtful)... My performance is not a statement about eating disorders in any way. I think the whole bulimia thing - it's important for people to know that I'm not trying to promote it."

No, she's not so much promoting bulimia as trying to highlight how one obtains a one way ticket to esophageal cancer.

As it happens, Gaga has also brushed off the negative responses to the performance during her hour-long keynote speech at the event, saying: "Sometimes things that are really strange and feel really wrong can change the world."

Or just put folk momentarily off their breakfasts.
