Lady Gaga announced that her upcoming album would be called
"Born This Way" when she accepted her MTV VMA award in a meat dress last year. To keep the hype going, she posted tweet after tweet after tweet about her new record, even going naked just to remind us that it's on its way. She even called her new music "the greatest of this decade."
But it sounds like Gaga has stolen some lyrics and the theme for her
'Born This Way' from a Motown artist named
Valentino.
'I Was Born This Way' was released in 1975. It's the first official song about coming out and it was re-recorded and released by Carl Bean as a disco hit.
Gaga's lyrics are very similar to that of Valentino's, and let's not forget that both songs share nearly identical titles.
Gaga cites that she's the sole songwriter of
'Born This Way', because you know this chick has an ego the size of, ya know, something like really huge and big and stuff. The woman dresses up and behaves like she's a freakin' bot! Although Gaga is well respected and multi-talented, she doesn't believe in taking breaks. She drops her albums within months instead of years and she's on tour every day of her life. If she gave herself some time, she'd generate her own ideas.
I would also love to find out what kind of activism, if any, Gaga was involved in before becoming iconic. I feel like she's using the gays only to have more fans and maintain her superstar status. Yes I did.
