Lady Gaga On Madonna Comparisons: 'What I Do Is Different'

Lady Gaga has been getting likened to Madonna ever since she emerged as a pop star, and now she's had enough of the comparisons. During her interview with Beats 1, Gaga said that while she has plenty of respect for the Queen of Pop, she will not allow people to compare her to anyone, including Madge.

"Madonna and I are very different, just saying," Gaga told Zane Lowe after he attempted to compare her life story to that of Madonna's. "I wouldn't make that comparison at all. I don't mean to disrespect Madonna. She's a nice lady. And she's had a fantastic huge career. She's the biggest pop star of all time."

She continued: "But I play a lot of instruments, I write all my own music. I spend hours and hours a day in the studio, I'm a producer, I'm a writer. What I do is different. I'm not just rehearsing over and over again to put on a show. There's a spontaneity in my work. I allow myself to fail, I allow myself to break, I'm not afraid to of my flaws. There are major differences between me and her. I don't mean that in a disrespectful way, I just will not be compared to anyone anymore. I am who the f**k I am."
