I do understand the comparisons to Madonna, I get that. But lately people even say she's copying Lana Del Rey, like seriously!?

On the internet, these are the people Gaga is supposedly copying:
-Madonna
-Michael Jackson
-Cyndi Lauper
-Geri Halliwell (!)
-Lana Del Rey
-Gwen Stefani
-Christina Aguilera
-Cher
-Liza Minelli
-Marilyn Monroe
-Grace Jones
-Emelie Autumn
-Queen
-David Bowie
-Bruce Springsteen
-Courtney Love

Well Gaga fans are always insisting everyone under the sun copies her. It's actually quite funny reading their comments on YouTube. Someone once said that Kylie copied Gaga in her 'Confide in Me' video. The damn thing was released in 1994.

Because her fans cry about how original she is and this perturbs a lot of the haters so they try desperately to prove how unoriginal she is.. Sometimes they make a good point but more often than not it's reaching. I also don't think BTW or Applause sound like Express Yourself or Girls Gone Wild.

I for one can see alot of similarites with what she does having been done by others i.e Joe Calderone is just Annie lennox at the Grammy's in 84. But it's also good to point out in this day and age it is hard to eb atre original and to have done something that has not been done before. Gaga's issue is she is made out to be an innovator and true original when more often than not it is a a rehash of a better artists work.

Her fans were extremely annoying, especially back in 2009, when they used to accuse everybody else of copying her, when they weren't. Nobody has ever copied her, but her fans love to imagine that everybody does.

If you're going to say everybody who wears an extravagent outfit after 2009 copies Lady Gaga, then by the exact same logic you can say Lady Gaga has copied everybody who wore an extravagent outfit before 2009 (so basically every single pop star in history).

Like people have said, backlash against her idiot fans (or, rather, a vocal minority thereof) who act like she's the most special, unique, creative, amazing artist there has ever ever been, as opposed to someone who produces quite a lot of the same generic pop stuff as loads of other people, but does it wearing totally hideous outfits.
