Sex Pistols' John Lydon Praises 'Marvellous' Lady Gaga

July 19, 2010
Sex Pistols' John Lydon Praises 'Marvellous' Lady GagaSex Pistols frontman John Lydon has praised Lady Gaga, calling her as “marvellous”.

Speaking to The Guardian, Lydon said he was pleased to hear that the US singer had described him as an “awesome rebel” in a recent interview.

"Did she? Did she really? I like that a lot,” he replied when told about her compliment.

“Oh, she's marvellous and I'm glad she has knowledge of my doings. I'm a sucker for a little bit of respect.”

He went on to describe the singer’s hit ‘Paparazzi’ as “one of the best things last year”.

Meanwhile, Lydon also hit out at the funeral of Sex Pistols former manager Michael McLaren in April.

Although the singer didn’t attend, he claimed Bob Geldof had told him it was a “terrible mess” and “not dignified”.

“He said he attended the funeral and the wake was full of wannabes, and I bet he was one of them himself,” Lydon added.

The singer is currently performing with Public Image Ltd.
