Giftedly Bad refers to someone, typically an artist, who plies their trade with intense passion, infinite drive, supreme self-confidence, and absolutely no talent whatsoever. If they are actors, they're melodramatic [[LargeHam hams]]; if they are singers, they [[DreadfulMusician warble and screech]]; if they are poets, they're masters of the PainfulRhyme. In general, their work will have what one person associated with the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Museum_of_Bad_Art Museum of Bad Art]] (an exhibition of this trope in visual media) has called the "''Oh my God'' factor" (as in, ''Oh my God, what do they think they're doing?'')

* ''Theatre/ThePhantomOfTheOpera'': The Phantom has shades of this with [[ShowWithinAShow ''Don Juan Triumphant.'']] It can't be ''that'' good if he has to terrorize the opera's cast into performing it. (Indeed, it only ''gets'' produced as part of a BatmanGambit to smoke him out.)

** Monica is a Giftedly Bad masseuse, which she can't accept because she has an incredible drive to be the best at everything. Only Phoebe is brave enough to tell her the truth. Her boyfriend, Chandler tries to soften the blow ([[DiggingYourselfDeeper as only he can]]) by saying she's so bad, she's the best at being the worst.

* In the ''Franchise/GIJoe'' comic, Major Bludd has a rather deservedly dismal reputation as a poet. People tend to not bring it up to his face because he's a cold blooded killer, so he believes himself to be a peerless poetic genius. From issue #47:

* ''VideoGame/NoOneLivesForever'' gives us Inge Wagner, a BrawnHilda whose StartOfDarkness began when her parents pressured her into becoming an opera singer, ignoring that she was completely tone deaf.

[[DreadfulMusician Badly]]. Yet the club remains popular with beatniks, who think that she does so deliberately as [[TrueArtIsIncomprehensible an avant-garde rejection of conventional taste]] in music. She is completely ignorant that [[SoBadItsGood this is why they enjoy her singing]].
