And it annoys me when Gaga's fans treat her like she is the next best thing when she simply isnt is so annoying. The 'Little Monster's/Mother Monster' clique makes me cringe. Not to add to the fact it is no longer the Fame Monster era of which she is still clinging onto. . It is so downgrading and dam right patronising.

She does have other idols you are correct in that. She has stated that BTW has many Bruce Springsteen-ish songs and that some of them have an Iron Maiden or Kiss vibe to them. But the thing is Harry you and I both know that she has grown up with Madonna and has been heavily influenced by her. In that sense, anywhere where she appears to be 'copying' Madonna I think is actually ridiculous, she is simply paying homage imo to one of her biggest idols.

And many artists refer to their fans by the names of their albums or singles or whatever. Nicki Minaj for example calls her fans Barbies and Ken Barbies because she calls herself Harajuku Barbie. I think its gonna be here to stay so like deal with it. :|
