Madonna has long criticized Lady Gaga for jacking her style, and now rumor has it she's taking the criticism on tour. According to Madonnarama, a fan site, the pop diva is preparing a medley of her 1989 single "Express Yourself" and Gaga's 2011 single "Born This Way," which some have suggested is a rip-off of "Express Yourself." Cheeky, eh?
Madonna's record sales have been suffering for years, with her latest album, "MDNA," setting the record for worst second-week sales drop of all time. But her tour sold out in a hot minute, so that's going to be her chance to shine. The tour begins on May 31 and hits the U.S. in September. The set list will reportedly include old hits like "Material Girl" and "Like a Prayer," as well as new tunes like "Girl Gone Wild" and "Gang Bang." But do you think Madge's decision to cover a Gaga song on tour is a bit of a dig toward the young pop star?

+15All this does is emphasize that Madonna's time is over & now she actually has to imitate Lady Gaga to get attention, since she's not getting any herself. Madonna was IT back in the day. Sadly, we all get old, and we should do it with grace. Very sad that Madonna, now in her 50's, can't embrace that. Lady Gaga is almost 30 yrs. younger. That's just life.
Really!? Madonna, my god, get ova urself.
Madge is seriously just over reacting if she thinks Gaga is "ripping her off"
As a part of the music history, Madge has to accept that people might get INSPIRATION from her, be it from something she said, did, wore or sang. It doesn't mean they're ripping her off!!!
Gaga is a wonderful, unique, original artist, and Madge should respect that just as Gaga respects her. Madge can't simply say just because someone else is expressing themselves that they are not copying her.
WAKE UP MADGE! (you're awesome, but:) YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY HUMAN ABLE OF EXPRESSION!
And you guys are weird to think Madonna's time is over. She doesn't just sing. She produces, choreographs, acts, directs movies, song writes, is a mother to three children, designs fashion, is a retailer, employs tons of people, etc..
One started the trend and ended up playing a ghost while the started like a ghost and ended being born that way, just weird.... Don't think they would be caught in a Bad Romance as our Lady Madonna has Jesus to the rescue while going Breathless with the Gaga Fever.
SHE CAN TAUNT ANYONE SHE WANTS !!
Despite being more than 25 years younger than Madonna, Gaga shows great admiration and respect to Madonna.
Anyway Madonna's desperate for attention because her album is not selling as well as projected and none of her singles are catching fire. She is just trolling for attention.
Is that a picture of you by your screen name?
Cause I thought it looked like Etta James : )
