Sweet, my adoptee likes Gaga.

And it's a pity that she writes pop songs. I think her talent could be used otherwise and she could be just as successful. I mean, I would still listen to her without all the gimmicks and crazy antics.

I think her degree of talent is extremely limited. I've fans say how talented she is. I simply reply with "I'm bluffin' with my muffin." then they shut up..

I just heard Jerry Seinfeld on the TV today say he was upset the stadium gave his private seats to Lady Gaga. Then he called her "unladylike."

Now, I agree it isn't really fair to give someone's paid-for seats to someone else, and I can see his point that if someone gives the finger to the crowd, being put in fancy seats as a result is strange (normally people who do impolite things are probably escorted from the stadium).

But when he calls her "unladylike"...whoa...that makes my hackles rise. Unladylike? He expects people to act in a "ladylike" fashion? Are we still stuck in the 50s when women were supposed to behave in a "ladylike" way?!? What is "ladylike" supposed to mean, anyway?! (Insert unladylike expletives here.)

And then the irony of him coming on TV and bashing her and saying things like, "I hate her," and why doesn't she stop with all her costumes and stuff...she's got talent, so why does she debase herself? At least, that's how I interpreted what he said. So, being ungentlemanly is okay, but not being "unladylike," apparently.

When I hear Jerry saying all that, it makes me like Lady Gaga MORE.

Although I did hear her Alejandro song today on the radio at work, and I really didn't like the lyrics ("Ale...Ale...Ale...Ale"), plus I thought the melody sounded very similar to some others she has written.

Jerry Seinfeld is ladylike. You should be more amused than pissed off.

Is he? He didn't seem very ladylike on TV. He seemed like a ****.

And I never really thought he was much of a comedian, either...he always came across as someone who knows he's acting while he's acting. The funny people on his show were always the characters around him. So take that, Jerry oh basher of GaGa!!! (But I did really like the Seinfeld show.)

My goodness. I'm starting to sound all snarky and MusicBanterish.

How does them being pop songs make them worse?

It doesn't make her songs worse. But I'd rather see her writing something other than pop music.
