Lady Gaga Is a Copy Paste
 5.8  You think that Gaga is original or at least she’s trying to be with all her different, crazy and outrageous outfits? After seeing these pictures, you may reconsider your opinion. She is a real copy paste actually… Coby's rating:

God, she's a talentless hack.
I can't figure out why no one points out that Let's Dance and Poker Face are exactly the same songs note-for-note but with different lyrics.
She will deflate like a balloon in a few years...
In this case you explore only her style..But listen to her last song "Born this Way" Is identical to "Expres yourself"
by Madonna...
That's my opinion; I don't expect anyone else to agree with it. I'm a Gaga fan, and I think she's intelligent and interesting. And yes, she does have talent when it comes to music.
If Lady Gaga goes out with a white t-shirt, everyone will say "omg madonna wore a white t-shirt 20 years ago omg gaga copied her"
Please, you're jealous because Lady Gaga is making success , stop that.
great job
Great list, Coby! Thanks for putting it together!
Great list!
There's something called "Culture Industry" - this idea was introduced by Adorno and Horkheimer. You guys should read it.
I'm definitely a Gaga fan and, honestly, I think she does most of the looks that she's 'copied' better than the originals ever dreamed of rocking theirs.
Besides, so many looks have been done in the industry, I imagine that it's hard for people to come up with anything that's going to be completely new. Most just freshen up and revamp previous wardrobes and styles, obviously. It's going to happen, people.

This list points out to people who think she's original or has anything original to say, that she, in fact, is just taking what came before and trotting it back out again. She's not outrageous and she's not original. It doesn't have anything to do with her as a songwriter, musician, or singer.
sweet list, I liked it
with an outrageous voice. She tries to come off 'Bizarre' and does it well. There have been so many pop stars/outfits; it's a little hard not to look like someone from the 'past'.
Her album hits today. Let's see how it does. Copy/paste. Give me a break.
no much of a Gaga fan myself.
BON APPETIT!
when you find all the similarities you don't think about all the things that are different!
and there's many of her outfits here thats not alike the others ;)
I would say she is a good entertainer but she certainly not original.
I think she copies Bjork more than anyone. Bjork for me was the original cooky artist.
I can't count the number of times my neighbour posts on facebook how 'original' and 'unique' Gaga is.
I laugh every single time at such lies!
BE CREATIVE!!!!
Not a fan, but I think she's very smart to be able to sucker so many people into her deception.
Firstly, because so many people do appreciate Lady Gaga as being original and unfortunately aren't aware of many of the people that she's ripping of (for as people of said there are heaps of people not even in this list, for example David Bowie), I think this list is a valid statement. It shouldn't be dismissed as being ignorant of the fact that Lady Gaga was intentionally copying people for some sort of aesthetic effect. If she was her fans should be aware of this and not bother the rest of the world by going on about how truly creative she is.
Secondly, if (as many of you have said) Lady Gaga is intentionally copying people as a form of artistic expression then everyone has the right to ask what the worth of such expression is. Also, everyone has the right to consider that worth to be nada. Again the fact that she might have been doing something unoriginal intentionally does not excuse her from being judged for her unoriginality.
Thirdly, but this is just my personal opinion, I cannot understand how Gaga, who so obviously appreciates such truly creative artists, can be satisfied with her own artistic accomplishments to date. If she has such great taste why is she making such tasteless (or at least in my opinion) music? Or course the music might not be the point, the art piece she might really care about is the whole spectacle of her life. But judging her as a musician, one feels that she is not even trying to create good music. I believe that she could be quite a talented person, possibly, but her general attitude seems to be that people like shit music, I'll give them shit music. For all I knoe perhaps she even thinks, I can copy people because a lot of people want know who I am copying and will consider me original, but when people call me a copy-cat I will say its a part of my artistic self-expression.
have not "of" in the first paragraph
won't not "want" in the last paragraph
If anyone's interested I know Camille Paglia wrote an article about Lady Gaga in which she calls her a respresentation of the "death of sex". Not sure what it's called though.
