Madonna disses another fan – Lady Gaga

By Alexandra Heilbron on September 8, 2011 | 33 Comments


During an interview with the French paper Le Soir, Madonna, who’s at the Venice Film Festival this week promoting her new film W.E., was asked how she perceives the admiration of her fans, including Lady Gaga who has openly admitted to being a fan. At a press conference earlier this week Madonna dissed a fan who was kind enough to give her a beautiful hydrangea, saying she hates that kind of flower. She continued to show disdain for her fans during the interview, answering ungraciously, “As for Lady Gaga, I have no comment to make about her obsessions having to do with me because I don’t know whether her behavior is rooted in something deep and meaningful, or superficial.” Could her snarky reply have something to do with professional jealousy, perhaps?

    Why do pussies hiss?

  3. Chris • September 8, 2011 @ 2:03 AM

    What kind of smug, asshole reply is that….. Like, realx Madonna.

  4. nobody important • September 8, 2011 @ 5:52 AM

    It’s jealously; pure and simple.

  5. Andrea • September 8, 2011 @ 6:43 AM

    I have to agree — she doesn’t look good in that picture. She was never pretty – but here she looks bloated. And yeah, of course she’s jealous. Her day is done — it’s all about Lady Gaga now, she’s a better singer/songwriter and that’s what’s most important.

    I think she’s just cocky

  7. Germain • September 8, 2011 @ 9:19 AM

    Tired old slut, get over yourself, you don’t deserve any attention, even when trying to start a controversy.

  8. Karyn • September 8, 2011 @ 10:22 AM

    Madonna had her day, and I have to admit I thought she was fabulous in the 80’s. Time to move on and perhaps put more of her focus into her children, charities and inspiring artists to be original. She defiantly does not look her best in this photo, but she still looks good considering she is past 50.

    Madonna is a has-been. It’s funny the media pays attention to her nowadays.

  10. alyson gael • September 8, 2011 @ 11:27 AM

    It’s so easy to be gracious when someone compliments you. She sounds brittle in the face of a young talented gal like Lady Gaga who can truly sing and perform. Move on Madge!

  11. David • September 8, 2011 @ 12:07 PM

    Madonna is being a bit of a pre-Madonna. She should go away now.

  12. Trevor • September 8, 2011 @ 12:20 PM

    Almost as ugly as Susan Boyle that is for sure! It makes me want to push the evil out a little harder while I write this taking a dump.

  13. Charlene • September 8, 2011 @ 12:25 PM

    Madonna meet Charlie Sheen, he’s in your world.

  14. Lizzy G • September 8, 2011 @ 2:00 PM

    Well Madonna, you tired old slut, it realy hurts doesn’t it when someone much younger, and definitely more talented comes along. Is there a little green monster on your shoulder?

  15. Brandon • September 8, 2011 @ 2:05 PM

    Listen, I get that Madonna’s cranky — that happens when you get older. The professional thing to do is to say ‘yeah, thanks’ and move along, even if you don’t like it. The problem is that folks’ve been kowtowing to her for so long that she’s believing her own hype. When other people start calling Lady Gaga the next Madonna, she’s getting her nose all out of joint because someone younger (who can actually sing) is stepping into a niche that she created and is making it her own. Madonna: Be happy that someone who seems to give a shit is actually out there and doing a decent job of filling your shoes. It could be a lot worse.

  16. Lizzy G • September 8, 2011 @ 2:06 PM

    Who needs your opinion on Lady GaGa, as if anyone cares what you think of her we all know she is fabulously talented, you can’t say anything nice because you are so afraid you are passe , over, done and she is the limelight and she doesn’t wear a cross around her neck which in your case is almost sacriligious. As for the other fans you have dissed, you forget who made you into a star (ex-star) but it’s all over Madonna.

  17. C-Dub • September 8, 2011 @ 2:32 PM

    Trevor! ha ha ha.
    We are all dissing Madonna which is totally fine, she is done. BUT, I’m sure at some point in our lives we hummed one of her tunes. I can’t say we watched a decent film of hers, but sung along with her on the radio maybe. If she was to pass on like MJ, I’m sure we’d all say she WAS an icon at one point and did pave the way for people like GaGa. Madonna was the epitome of controversy at one point, now it’s time she retire though.

  18. susan • September 8, 2011 @ 3:49 PM

    Love the fake accent,, get over yourself,, you are from Minnesota,, not England! and she has always been rude. I cant figure out why,, she is definitely a has been!

  19. Tayderhead • September 8, 2011 @ 4:11 PM

    The cross around her neck is just to keep the vampires away. As for retiring, high profile people never have to retire…..look at Kate Hepburn and Betty White. Madonna can still act in movies….say in roles like Joan Crawford used to play….crotchety old witch parts.

  20. Jonathan • September 8, 2011 @ 4:14 PM

    Lady Gaga > Madonna

  21. Mary • September 8, 2011 @ 4:32 PM

    To Nobody Important …why do pussies HISSSSSSSSSS because we can!
    To Karyn… I know plenty of women over fifty who look better than Madonna and they’ve never done the botox scene!
    As for Madonna this is one time her photo hasn’t been air brushed, this is what she actually looks like. She’s had her day, time to say goodbye move on and let the younger generation do their thing.She has always been an arrogant bitch!

  22. jay • September 8, 2011 @ 4:35 PM

    I think Madonna should audition for The Chipmunks…she’s got the cheeks for it now!

  23. Nadine N • September 8, 2011 @ 4:50 PM

    Maybe its menopause or she could be really bitter with her plastic surgeon. Those cheek implants are a white hot mess.

  24. L • September 8, 2011 @ 7:52 PM

    Madonna, you never had your day, you have seen more ceilings than Michael Angelo, get over it already, the botox, plastic surgery whatever else you are turning face the facts that you are a tired old slut plain and simple, go get some money off your ex Guy Ritchie that he got from you you will need it you are a loser, you won’t sell anymore albums and your movies suck, SLUT
    Gaga has way more talent than you ever did,
    go get a pension you old whore!

  25. eeek • September 8, 2011 @ 10:50 PM

    why is she still here?? ugh she reminds me of zsa zsa gabor in this picture; it’s time for her tired old ass to call it a day and focus on something else and not go dissing ppl like Lady Gaga out of bitter jealousy. old madge has had her day and she should know the struggles of making it in the biz so why say that sh*t about Gaga, who actually does have talent (I would have understood her snide remarks if they were about someone like Paris Hiltonn or something..)?? How rude~ she needs to get over herself, at least go out with some charm so that ppl will remember you for the good things and not being an old whore who won’t just move over..

  26. A • September 9, 2011 @ 1:05 AM

    wow, She’s bitter old woman…starting to look like one too.
    Hope she keeps it up…just giving me more and more reason not to listen or support her music,movies,work…etc.

  27. Jo-Anne • September 9, 2011 @ 7:36 AM

    why do her looks even matter?
    s a d people…

    personally the jealousy angle is ridiculous…

  28. Bob • September 9, 2011 @ 10:09 PM

    In the entertainment business, unfortunately, your looks matter a great deal. However, those who show respect towards other individuals in the same profession or to those who showed kindness through simply gestures such as giving flowers, are those who age gracefully and are greatly admired in this field.
    Obviously Madonna hasn`t reached that level of maturity yet or maybe never will. In this picture she looks as if she put a ton of make up on her face in order to cover the wrinkles……Didn`t work Madonna. No matter how much make up you put on people can still see through you.

  29. Jane Doe • September 9, 2011 @ 11:56 PM

    Madonna is a true original and star and always will be. Lady Gaga sucks ass! She tries too hard with all her gimicy outrageous outfits and her voice sucks. Plus Lady Gaga is unattractive. Lady Gaga first albumm was pretty catchy but her latest one sucks… Lady Gaga is trying to be the next Madonna and so her flattery is in the vain of imitation …Unfortunately no one sees through Lady Gaga…Sad sad sad

  30. Lady Miss B. • September 10, 2011 @ 9:29 AM

    Definitely not very courteous on Madge’s part, but courtesy and good manners have never been a mainstay of her persona. As for Gaga… She’s all about the gimmick. Her music is uber commercial and completely lacking in originality. Madonna speaks her mind. If Gaga’s music actually had merit, maybe Madonna would have something positive to say about it.

  31. jjjones • September 11, 2011 @ 5:23 PM

    I have never been a fan of either one of those
    Divas, but I kind of think Madonna’s comment might have some merit even if she shouldn’t have voiced it so publically. And the comment about the flowers, that was just ungrateful.

  32. Kieran • September 17, 2011 @ 11:15 AM

    The magazine must have been lying. Madonna and Lourdes attended The Fame Ball. She loved it, according to an interview she actually attended

  33. jj • June 11, 2012 @ 5:49 PM

    Geese Madonna,get over yourself.When I see or hear anything about Madonna these days?A face covered with night cream screaming about wire hangers come to mind.
    What a narcissist.
