So a bunch of gay club kids in Manchester, England, filmed themselves lip dubbing to Lady Gaga‘s “Born This Way,” because who wouldn’t want to be job hunting in 10 years and regret something they posted on the Internet? And while it’s all well and good, we’re awarding the little boy below the Internet King Of Lady Gaga. Because, well:
Matt
Gaga stinks.
Michael
@Matt: Someone’s bitter.
Ian
Love the song & the video, the haters come across like old right-wing fogies who live to yell at the kids on their lawns. And FYI, for the morons who say that Gaga is ‘ripping off’ Madonna, the exact same things were said about Madonna when she started off. It’s called reinterpretation and is done in never ending cycles with new generations and artists.
Daine
How come no one said a peep about J. Lo using the chorus of Lambada for her new single? Or is Lady Gaga the only who who deserves to be trashed whenever she uses a melody reminiscent of a hit pop tune?
Lefty
@Ian: I’m not disagreeing, but who was Madonna accused of ripping off?
Lefty
@Daine: Because no one cares about J-Lo anymore?

Lady Gaga is a far better vocalist than Madonna could hope to be.
In any event, Madonna is old now and running gyms in Mexico City and preparing to launch her daughter’s career.
Lady Gaga is in her 20’s and the world is hers.
Jay Bell
@Lefty:
Marilyn Monroe, I would guess.
Joseph
I don’t like lady gaga and I HATE Madonna. Dose that make me straight?
Qjersey
@Daine: Which is really odd since a song currently in the top 10, “Stereo Love,” uses the same Lambada riff…
ron
That song is putrid.
Red Meat
@Joseph: No, it just makes you tasteless.
justiceontherocks
@Joseph: Maybe not. If you watch Glee every week there’s still hope.
Kev C
@Joseph: No, it just means you have taste. None of that over hyped pop trash that corporations dump into feeding trows for consumer pigs to eat.
Here’s something Rupert Murdoch vomited onto the television for gays to love called Glee. Enjoy it, gays. And here’s something some pretentious guidette named Stefani wrote on the back of her school notebook and turned into a song. Bon appetit, gays.
How does that taste?
zaniell
“Gays” and “Lady Gaga” in one sentence.. enough 2 stop reading cause what’s gonna follow is a bunch of bitter queens
Zeus
@christopher di spirito: not to mention who would want anything to do with her disgusting arms.
Matt Ford
As someone who is 50, I say GO GAGA!! I lived through young Madonna era and think GaGa is on track to be a long-lived entertainer. “Born This Way” will become iconic.
Coffee&Chicory
THAT.BOY.IS.ADORABLE.

@Christopher–
You are the reason I hate Caca fans so much. Your comments are ageist and sexist. Caca also can’t sing if her life depended on it. Her whole career consists of ripping off others.
Red Meat
@John B: upload a video of your singing skills, if you can’t then stfu and go suck a vagina.
DJ
LLS I loved the little fat kid! He actually sounded pretty good. But boy is he in for some ass whooping when he gets to high school.

@Lefty: Debbie Harry, Cyndi Lauper, Marilyn Monroe (extensively), Kylie Minogue, Michael Jackson, Marlene Dietrich, and just about every famous actress from the 40’s and 50’s. Not to mention a slew of copyright infringement lawsuits (several of which she lost).
And since so many people in this inane Madonna vs. Gaga argument seem to think Madonna invented the wheel she owes The Staples Sisters (for the song) and Fritz Lang (for the video) royalties for Express Yourself.
chimmy
Well, I’m 38. I lived through Madonna and the 80’s music, and I love Lady GaGa. Madonna is getting in her mid 50’s, let her retire and crown Lady GaGa the new queen of dance, or gay, or chic, go GaGa, go
christopher di spirito
@Zeus:Madge has Zombie arms. She’s like something that rose up from a crypt.
christopher di spirito
@John B: And you’re a Caca-ist. See? I can make as little sense as you too. LOL!
prohomo
Both are fantastic.
