Lady Gaga Is No Madonna Copy
Lady Gaga is not a "reductive Madonna copy."
The "Applause" singer doesn't care if people accusing her of imitating the elder star - sparked by her 2011 single "Born This Way" bearing similarities to Madonna's "Express Yourself" - because she feels her work stands apart.
"LADY GAGA IS A REDUCTIVE MADONNA COPY! SHE'S OVER NOW! #WriteWhatUWant #SayWhatUWantBoutMe #ImNotSorry," she wrote on Twitter. She then added a link to a 2012 interview in which Madonna described her songs as "reductive," adding, "MADONNA HATES GAGA SHE'S OVER. I don't need anybody's permission to be remembered. I will be. Whether they like it or not."
Gaga, 27, also addressed her past issues with drugs and fluctuating weight in a similar manner: "LADY GAGA IS ON DRUGS. HER CAREER IS OVER! (Been an addict for 10 years) #WriteWhatUWant. My recovery is a daily battle."
She also tweeted a picture of her curvier figure accompanied by the "#DoWhatUWantWithMyBody."
Gaga also she didn't care the first single from her ARTPOP album didn't reach Number One, adding, "I write for the music, not the charts." Gaga's latest track, "Do What U Want" featuring R. Kelly was released today.
