Madonna Says She's 'Very Flattered' By Lady Gaga Comparisons

http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1621452/20090914/madonna.jhtml

As for Gaga's VMA date, Kermit the Frog, Madonna says, 'I missed that, but I've dated some frogs.'

After talking with MTV News' Jim Cantiello about her heartfelt tribute to the late Michael Jackson at the VMAs on Sunday night, Madonna also answered questions about Lady Gaga and her daughter, Lourdes.

Gaga, of course, has been frequently compared to Madonna — both musically and as an icon — and her performance at the VMAs on Sunday has been compared with Madonna's famous VMA performances.

While she didn't see Gaga's avant-garde red-carpet getup in person, Madonna did catch it on a television screen backstage.

"I just saw Lady Gaga," Madonna said with a smile. "She looks like she's going to carnival in Venice, very beautiful."

When asked if she feels at all threatened by the comparisons, Madonna said, "No, I'm very flattered."

What about Lady Gaga's escort, Kermit the Frog?

"I missed that," Madonna said. Asked if she'd ever been escorted by Kermit, she joked, "No, but I've dated some frogs."

When asked if her daughter Lourdes — who is such a big Gaga fan that she danced on a table during a Gaga concert that Madonna took her to earlier this year — is interested in show business, Madonna turned serious.

"She's got school tomorrow, so she's in the bed sleeping," she said. "I think she has an interest, but she has time — she's not even 13 yet, so give her a few more years."

I assume she said this before witnessing the Gagster's "performance." I mean, kudos to her for singing live, and for attempting to make a spectacle, but huge deductions for it being limp and uninspired and just generally ridiculous.

I've said it before, I'll say it again - while I wholeheartedly support anyone who's that committed to looking stupid in service of pop music, there not only needs to be a decent tune to back it all up but a semblence of a personality, too. Keep trying, Gaga. You're nowhere near there yet.

Exactly. He wasn't paying ATTENTION (cue death glare / angry eyes / totally unaffected face combo). He didn't LISTEN to the lyrics of GI2M. "Don't. Stop. Me. Now. Don't. Need. To. Um. Um." Looks off camera for help with lyrics...

From her early life in New York to her move to Britian, Madonna talks us through her evolving career in a rare and candid encounter with Dan Cairns.

It was after the NYC HC promo gig. He was interviewing her and it didn't end well. Here's a link.

re: john norris.

still bitter after she let him have it about his clothes during confessions junket in 2005.

so after she had KICKED ASS at roseland, following the sheep of combat journalism - instead of giving accolades, he was just railing her right after her HIGH of being on stage about things she said 100 years ago and was talking about her aging. hes an idiot. he should have been fired ON THE SPOT for speaking to a legend of her status in that common manner.
