"Pop-divas Lady Gaga and Madonna come in at number seven. I guess their family ties would explain why the two are very similar. According to a specialist from the New England Historic Genealogical Society, it was discovered that the two are ninth cousins, once removed. Their ancestral history show the two singers are related through a French farming couple who moved to Quebec in the 1600s. There have been constant comparisons of the two stars, some even stating that Gaga ripped off Madonna. Looks like those prior feuds weren’t a matter of Gaga trying to replicate Madonna, but only a matter of her looking up to her big cousin is all. Awww!" 

I didn't know were to put it since I don't know if it's news or if it's AP

When you're that distant does it even matter? I doubt they have any relatives who know each other personally lol

How credible is this????

[PrinceGaga 7,245]

Lol basically everyone is related to everyone if you take it far back enough. Ninth cousins once removed I don't even know what that means.
