Are Madonna and Lady Gaga really feuding? Its been quite a summer for the fellow pop stars who are both on tour. Currently, Madonna is on her MDNA World Tour while Lady Gaga is on The Born This Way Ball tour. It seems it all began in January during an interview with ABC in which Madonna said Lady Gagas song, Born This Way was reductive because of its similarities to her 1989 hit, Express Yourself. Since then, Madonna has continued to talk about Mother Monster while the former So You Think You Can Dance judge, Lady Gaga recently had a few things to say about Madge. Keep reading to find out what Madonna has been saying and how Lady Gaga responded!
Over the weekend in New Jersey at Atlantic Citys historic Boardwalk Hall, Madonna dedica! ted her song Masterpiece to Lady Gaga and told a sold out crowd, Im going to dedicate this next song to Lady Gaga! Do you want to know something? I love her. I love her. I do love her. Imitation is the highest form of flattery! And one day, very soon were going to be on the stage togetherjust you wait.
After the dedication, she performed a mash-up of her Express Yourself and Lady Gagas Born This Way; followed by snippets of Shes Not Me from Madonnas 2008 album, Hard Candy.
The 54 year-old has made similar comments all summer which led to Lady Gagas response a few weeks ago saying, It sometimes makes people feel better about themselves to put other people down or make fun of them or maybe make mockery of their work and that doesnt make me feel good at all. That just makes me feel like Im not being a good human being. I feel like if youre a really good human being you can try to find something beautiful in every single person no matter what and its a challenge but at the end of the day I learned so much this year about that.
The 26 year-oldcontinued, I learned a lot about negativity, I learned a lot about people trying to tear you down, and Im just not that person and I never will be. I dont even want to fight back because its more important to me to keep writing music because thats really all I care about is the music.
While Lady Gaga didnt mention Madonna by name, she did add, Things are really different now than they were 25 years ago, and thats what makes Born This Way so relevant for me is that I really want you all to notice this tremendous place that we are in now. Were socially in a different pla! ce and i ts ok, we dont have to all slice and hate each other anymore.
