Lady Gaga Opens Up About Madonna Feud / Hoped To “Piss Off” The Pop Queen?

Published: Saturday 9th Nov 2013 by Rashad

And…the claws are out yet again.

Indeed, it’s been two years since Queen of Pop Madonna took her first jab at pop princess Lady Gaga – labeling the young Grammy winner’s 2011 hit ‘Born This Way’ as “reductive” for its similarity to her 1989 hit ‘Express Yourself’.

What came after were months and months of Madonna doing just that – expressing herself via interviews and a highly publicized “Born This Way/Express Yourself” mashup performed live on her blockbuster ‘M.D.N.A.‘ world tour that courted much attention from her fans and Little Monsters alike.

Unlike Madge, Gaga has kept fairly mum on the topic since its beginnings, but now the ‘Poker Face’ performer is dealing a new hand to reheat a battle some thought had cooled.  Her newest statements below:

Via Attitude:

“All it meant to me was that Madonna Ciccone was singing my song on her stage and I’m 27,” she added. “And as a punk-rocker from New York, I’ve basically been hoping that I would become so good that one day I would piss off Madonna!”


“I have to be really honest, I was completely kind of floored that Madonna was singing my song on her stage every night!” she said (via GagaDaily). “I mean, Madonna’s … she’s Madonna. I looked up to her for a long time. I’m not quite sure what her intention was — to do that in the show, but I don’t really care.”

“I think playing into the gossip of the tabloids and, I guess the fodder of the competition, that’s just not what I’m about,” Gaga said. “She chooses to use her voice the way she chooses to use hers and I choose to use mine the way I use mine.”

      I know. Madonna is so ugly.

      • Lady FlopGa November 10, 2013

        Artpop is the worst album of 2013….End of discussions. 🙁

    • Lamb4Life November 10, 2013

      Artpop———–> Nicki Minaj’s Pink Friday pt 2

  2. I am above u November 9, 2013

    Without Madonna this h** would have no CREATIVITY..She even worst than that other thief!

    • ARTPOP WILL FLOP November 9, 2013

      Fraudyonce just drop the name.

      • SHAWTY November 9, 2013

        Lol

  3. Rosie November 9, 2013

    No one cares.

    • Lamb4Life November 10, 2013

      I know..Artpop sucks !!!!!!

  4. B****** are a mess November 9, 2013

    “All it meant to me was that Madonna Ciccone was singing my song on her stage and I’m 27,” she added. “And as a punk-rocker from New York, I’ve basically been hoping that I would become so good that one day I would p*** off Madonna!”

    It’s not that you’re so good, it’s that you are a t***** stealing b****! Learn b****!

  5. Lana the legend November 9, 2013

    GaGa the biggest fraud and fake in the industry next to beyonce.

  6. christinastherealtalent November 9, 2013

    Oh Gaga…SHUT UP! Madonna performed your song on stage to show the world how reductive it was and a complete rip off of her songs it was. Don’t take it as a gesture but a big F U from Madonna to you! Get over yourself!

  7. Gregory November 9, 2013

    I actually like this response. Classic yet shady…..lol. Madonna is an icon, but she annoys me. She always has something rude and disrespectful to say. That’s why she has always had problems with other artists who came up with her. Janet(My Girl), Mariah just name a few. She needs to learn how to keep her mouth shut.

    • Jason Santoro November 10, 2013

      Yet Madonna has sold more records than Janet(your girl) and Mariah combine.

  8. christinastherealtalent November 9, 2013

    BTW…Gaga needs to find her musical identity. The only song she has ever released as a single that comes close to sounding punk rock is Edge of Glory.

  9. HoneychildPlease November 9, 2013

    She just wont’t stop huh??? GAGA is tired a.f! she done released every song off her album, and than put it on Itunes to stream and still NOTHING! Yeah Applause was the only single that actually did something, but what next?? FLOP B****!

  10. ARTPOP WILL FLOP November 9, 2013

    ARTFLOP WILL FLOP.

    • HoneychildPlease November 9, 2013

      Nothing but truth!

  11. NT November 9, 2013

    But Gaga does play into the tabloids and media

  12. So what b****!! Yeah i said it!!! November 9, 2013

    Their was never an UGLY pop star UNTIL there was GAGA!

    • TomTom November 9, 2013

      I find that quite refreshing actually.

  13. Rosie November 9, 2013

    And apparently Venus is planned as the third single. Not even the Little Cutters like that song. Her career will be over.

  14. RIHLUV November 9, 2013

    lol this REALLY ISNT THAT DIFFERENT FROM THE WHOLE
    NICKI MINAJ -LIL KIM THING…

    • CUNTLEUJAH November 9, 2013

      except nicki actually beasted kims career.. and surpassed her… madonnas an actual NEXT LEVEL LEGEND, gaga could never come close to ending madges career.

  15. Super Cisus November 9, 2013

    Fraud like Beyoldce

  16. NO(Halo My Name) November 9, 2013

    BEYONCE IS NOT THIS BADDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! KING BEY<3 Lady gaga took hers tooooooo farrrrrr.

  17. filth November 9, 2013

    Talking s*** about Madonna again and now you’re a punk rocker from NY? Shut your mouth with that nonsense – anyone who knows of Madonna and of the NY punk scene is shaking their damn head right now.

    Karma has been coming for you Lady Caca. We are done with your phony, disingenuous, try-hardy act. Leave us. Go to rehab already.

  18. Vee November 9, 2013

    Lets not act like Madonna didnt do fraudulent things herself but I guess you uneducated b****** would be the first to call her original. Gaga irks my nerves nonetheless just stfu now.

  19. Amanda BYnes November 9, 2013

    Her tactics to get the attention of the media is getting boring. She’s using Madonna’s name to sell her flopping album/career. Yawn*

    • NO(Halo My Name) November 9, 2013

      You need to leave this blog with a username like that. Amanda bynes? really? Lindsey Understudy… Anyways I agree with you tho.

      • Amanda BYnes November 9, 2013

        You’re not the boss of me. So, please don’t tell what username I want to use.

  20. ArtTrash November 9, 2013

    people have lost interest in her, So what does she do? drops Madge’s name just to get the press talking about her again. Whenever fraud ca’s name is brought up so is Madonna’s &, Caca has nobody to blame but herself. She will always now be known as a reductive Madonna. Her ego is out of control and for what? she sings reductive s***** pop songs! Cure cancer or A*** b**** and then you’ll impress us! If not sashay away, your over.

  21. KINGREEKO November 9, 2013

    How bout this biased Site post the full interview, because she was actually polite and not shading anyone. But of course this Hitleresque site lives for stan wars…..

  22. Slayer November 9, 2013

    I have two words: Immaculate Collection. That entire collection is like 20 great hits from several good Madonna albums . And she wasn’t even done with her hits yet. Let’s count Shady Blahblah’s albums, shall we? Oh, only 2…hmm…that’s embarrassing. I hope her next song is “Mouth (Insert Foot Here)” because her music should reflect who she really is.

  23. Amanda BYnes November 9, 2013

    What an unfortunate ugly creature. She’s already becoming a HAS-BEEN after 5 years. HAHAHAHA

  24. Queen Mother November 9, 2013

    “And as a punk-rocker from New York”
    Where? In your closet on Park Ave. playing dress up?! Try again B****.

  25. Motivation November 9, 2013

    I never thought she would respond to the comparisons, simply because she has no right to defend herself, she should kiss the ground were Madonna’s walk, the fact that she could be half-naked on stage, the fact that she can make the kind of music she does, the provocative lyrics, her music videos, the shock values and more, she owes it to Madonna, she opened the doors to her and the others Pop girls, without the effort, risk and courage that Madonna had to break the rules, none of them could do what they do now and get away with it, specially Gaga, Madonna changed the game, her peers played her game, these girls are playing her game, everybody seems to hate Madonna but the woman has always been ahead of everyone else, now they call her old, without realizing that she is doing exactly what she did 20 years ago, she is opening the doors to Pop girls like Gaga, you don’t see it now but in 30 years when the Pop girls would be old, nobody will make fun of them, they will be seen as s*** and succesful mature women and all that because Madonna breaking the rules/changing the game once again for them, all she got is a pretenticious Pop girl trying to shades her, what world are with living in?.

    • John November 9, 2013

      Amen!!! Most intelligent comment I’ve read in a long time

  26. Bey-Minaj November 9, 2013

    Sooooo Gagass needs to drum up some controversy to keep interest in her ArtFlop album. Interesting! But pathetic!

  27. Sean November 9, 2013

    Both women have been doing the exact same thing throughout their careers. Ripping off other artists and ideas.

  28. Kitty November 9, 2013

    This dirty dust mop should hope her career is as long as Madge’s

  29. Sean November 9, 2013

    I actually happen to think Artpop is spectacular though. It’s a massive album. Not sure what will come of it though. Promo and performances have been a mess.

  30. LastDOn November 9, 2013

    It’s so funny that these broke ass no life pplz come on the blog 2 to feel like somebody day in day out..How can u guys label an album a Flop that’s not even released as yet.. IF ARTPOP IS A FLOP so is every female album that came out this year cuz ARTPOP IS PREDICT 2 HAVE THE BIGGEST OPENING SALES 4 A WOMEN THIS YEAR!! F***** RETARDS!!

  31. LastDOn November 9, 2013

    I DONT SEE THE SIMILARITIES BTW GAGA AND MADONNA EXCEPT THEY BOTH ARE WHITE FEMALES

    • Stephy Tha Lambily November 9, 2013

      you dont see the similarites between Gaga THE QUEEN OF POP!!! What kind of self drag are you doing to yourself? Retarted much? Or just Blind…

  32. LastDOn November 9, 2013

    they compare every BIG BLONDE Pop female artist 2 madonna one time britney was the replica of Madonna now is Gaga cuz she’s the most relevant pop blonde female artist rite now..10 years it will be some1 else

  33. Who is Gaga November 9, 2013

    When Gaga was “hot” she didn’t feel the need to respond to Madge’s shade.

    Now that she is flopping so hard, she is doing anything to stay relevant. YOU’RE OVER. you’re done! time is up.

  34. Mark111 November 9, 2013

    Oh Gaga, trying to pull a rabbit out the hat at the last minute. Sad, I used to be a fan, but this era is just a mess. She’s losing it, she really has gone gaga.

    Madonna has always said some crap about the next big thing. She too been using thay trick for decades, dissing Janet, Mariah and other pop chics other than Britney. But that’s the thing, she either diss you or works with you the remain current. She took more styles from other people than Beyoncé.

  35. Tisha November 9, 2013

    Funny how whenever she’s flailing she starts confronting folks about old feuds.

    Weak move Gaga, handle your business when its fresh because no one will give a f*** 3 months later.

    Madonna sang your song because it was HER song with a different title, and a crowd of thousands laughed to that joke for months.

    You’re not a punk rocker, you’re not an indie artist. You’re a rich posh girl who went to the same school as Paris Hilton.

  36. Stephy Tha Lambily November 9, 2013

    THIS NEW GENERATION IS FILLED WITH COPYCATTS!!!!

  37. rih rox((U mad Bro?))(( stanning for H20’s previous rant)) November 9, 2013

    She’s far too up herself… they both are.

  38. christinastherealtalent November 9, 2013

    Those of you who are saying Madonna needs to shut up need to take several stadium seats and hot glue your a** to them! Madonna has nothing to prove to anybody and she has worked her a** off to get to where she is at today. She can say whatever she wants. Why do you think Madonna’s never had a nasty thing to say about Christina? Because Christina has always cited Madonna as an inspiration and made sure to give credit where it’s due, unlike Gaga, who doesn’t even acknowledge those acts she has copied and try to pass it off as her own.

    • GAGARULES November 9, 2013

      LOL MADONNASAUR IS THE BIGGEST COPYCAT OF ALL TIME, SO SHE NEEDS TO HAVE SEVERAL NURSING HOMES FULL OF SEATS.

  39. MANDY MOORE November 9, 2013

    YESSSSS!!! Gaga promote that new album with a rivalry with Madonna.

    The part that made me laugh was that she’ll use her voice to carry her through.
    What voice? LMFAO!!

    Madonna has always looked ugly and can’t sing for sh*t. And Lady Gag just looks like Marilyn Manson trying to be a Woman! smh

  40. HOWYOULIKEIT November 9, 2013

    Nicki Minaj taught her how to swaggerjack other artists

  41. *ℙᏫℙ ℝᏫᎩAℒᎿᎩ* November 9, 2013

    SMH at everything. 🙄

    get it @sam. 😉

  42. GAGARULES November 9, 2013

    LMAO GAGA IS RIGHT. MADONNASAUR THOUGHT SHE WAS BEING SHADY, BUT THE REAL SHADE WAS THAT SHE WAS PROMOTING LADY GAGA EVERY NIGHT FOR A YEAR! LMAO THAT OLD B**** MADONNASAUR IS THE BIGGEST REDUCTIVE COPYCAT OF ALL TIME, SO SHE NEEDS TO HAVE A STADIUM OF SEATS.

    • Rosie November 9, 2013

      Not a T***** stan calling anyone a copycat with the receipts from the picture above alone.
      Anyways, Madonna is the the biggest pop female of all time, innovative, more creative, and caused more controversy than T***** ever will. Not to mention she’s still gaining all these headlines after how many years? while T***** is already a semi-local has-been after only 5 years.

      • GAGARULES November 9, 2013

        AND SHE DID IT ALL BY STEALING OTHER ARTISTS’ WORK AND PASSING IT OFF AS HER OWN.

        MADONNASAUR IS THE BIGGEST FRAUD THE INDUSTRY HAS EVER SEEN. SHE’S MAD CUZ NOW GAGA IS THROWING HER VERY SAME METHODS RIGHT BACK IN HER BOTOXED FACE LOL

      • GAGARULES November 9, 2013

        P.S., BORN THIS WAY OUTSOLD THAT MESS OF A FLOP MDOA. WHICH STILL REMAINS THE BIGGEST FLOP IN HISTORY, EVEN WITH HER FREEBIE GIVEAWAYS LOL

  43. GAGARULES November 9, 2013

    MADONNASAUR HAS BEEN SUED A RECORD BREAKING 13 TIMES FOR PLAGIARISM. WHO’S THE REDUCTIVE ONE AGAIN?

    • Rosie November 9, 2013

      Your fave, who was supposed to be a legend according to her delusional ass f** cult, but is already known to the GP as a Madonna wannabe and weirdo with just her 3rd album?

      • GAGARULES November 9, 2013

        LOL ONLY GAGA HATERS THINK THAT. MADONNASAUR IS A WASHED UP 80’S DINOSAUR WHO NEEDED TO PIGGYBACK ON GAGA’S NAME TO BECOME RELEVANT AGAIN. ARTPOP WILL SELL MORE THAN MADONNASAUR’S LAST 3 FLOPS COMBINED LOL

  44. GAGARULES November 9, 2013

    HAS MADONNASAUR EVER OWNED UP TO STEALING ‘EXPRESS YOURSELF’ FROM THE STAPLE SINGERS? #UMNO

  45. Rihanna # 1 Fan T November 9, 2013

    I love her response it was very mature and smart

  46. J.E November 9, 2013

    She is actually praising herself.. she believes that she is so good thats why she pissed madonna already… LOL Gagag Fading to soon…

  47. CARMEN (formerly IM A FREE B*TCH) November 9, 2013

    “I think playing into the gossip of the tabloids and, I guess the fodder of the competition, that’s just not what I’m about,”

    what are you doing now tho gaga? have several seats -> _/

  48. CzarM November 10, 2013

    If I strike a match on the day ARTPOP is released, I wonder which one will burn out faster. Gaga is about as “punk rock” as a 2 year olds farts.

    Adele’s album sales, Katy’s singles success, and Madonna calling her out for being an impersonating wannabe must’ve done a real number on Gaga’s already fragile sanity.

  49. HOTSTUFF November 10, 2013

    “as a punk-rocker from New York ” what’s wrong with him ? is he on drugs or something ? this is starting to become serious now….

  50. Loki’d November 10, 2013

    f*** that ugly ass gargoyle b****

  51. Rebecca Black > Lady Flopga November 10, 2013

    You’re dealing with an OG here b****. You’re nothing but a plaything to the Queen.

  52. JOHNVIDAL November 10, 2013

    I´m so over this. Who the hell cares?
    Artpop is one of the 5 best albums of the year. It is pop at its best and nobody is releasing anything like that atm. You b****** are mad your faves are basic.

    • HOTSTUFF November 10, 2013

      u are so biased, crazy, foolish, delusional, contradictory. For the past 5 years EDM is the trend ! Radio are saturated with it ! what the hell are u talking about that “nobody is releasing anything like that”….LMAO and don’t bother answering me trying to come for Rih like u always do, cause she stays unbothered with her #1 hit DIAMONDS and her top 10 hit STAY. Nobody is/was releasing anything like the aforementioned ! but knowing you, just because it’s Rih u will have some ‘delusional statement/excuse ‘ to make in order to discredit her. Have a nice day Heaux and deal.

      Hotstuff aka the Hottest.

      xoxo

      • Rosie November 10, 2013

        LMAO bye. EDM/electropop has been over with the GP since fall 2012 unless the song itself got actual critical acclaim/payola/is actually by a EDM artist (See: pretty much all the EDM songs released by a pop girl flopping except for the Summertime Sadness remix).
        Wake Me Up, the only EDM song currently in the top 10 other than Awfulause, doesn’t even have a dance beat for most of the song, it’s pretty much upbeat country until the breakdown.

      • JOHNVIDAL November 10, 2013

        It´s not just EDM. Don´t tell me Artpop sounds like what other people are releasing cos NOOOOOOOO!!! lol What can I expect from a Rihanna fan though? That´s truly delusional in itself.
        And yes the only decent move Rihanna has ever made was probably Diamonds, never said otherwise (not that she had anything to do with the decisions made everytime they make an album for her). I mean, zero credibility for people who stan for Rihanna, Katy Perry, etc. Just be serious.

  53. TheTruth November 10, 2013

    Funny how this randomly comes out now, right before her new album is released. If she had anything to say it should have been expressed last year when it was relevant. She is a headline w**** who’ll do anything for fame.

  54. TheTruth November 10, 2013

    Lol go do your maths homework before coming out with something so stupid
