Lady Gaga Condemned Over 'Retarded' Copycat Madonna Claims

April 21, 2011
Lady Gaga Condemned Over 'Retarded' Copycat Madonna ClaimsLady Gaga has been criticised after she called claims she copied Madonna "retarded".

The singer made the comments in a new interview when asked about the similarities between her hit 'Born This Way' and Madonna's 'Express Yourself'.

Mencap, which is the leading UK charity for people with a learning disability and their families, condemned Lady Gaga's comments.

"It's an unfortunate choice of words, particularly from someone so influential," a source told The Sun newspaper.

'Born This Way' is the lead single from Lady Gaga's forthcoming album of the same name, due out in May.
