Madonna addresses copycat claims as fans reignite Lady Gaga controversy

• Madonna made a powerful statement on social media, addressing claims of music copying.
• She shared a photo of herself wearing black glasses, a white shirt with a black tie, and a brown jacket.
• Madonna previously accused Lady Gaga of copying her music in a 2015 interview.

Madonna continues to captivate hearts with her extraordinary talent and timeless beauty. Recently, she made a powerful statement on social media, addressing several claims that had been weighing on her mind.

In her latest social media post, the “Back That Up to the Beat” artist shared a photo of herself wearing black glasses, a white shirt with a black tie, and a brown jacket layered over it.

On the photo, Madonna wrote, “Did you see so-and-so copied you?”

However, right below this line, the highly acclaimed singer, known for hits like “Papa Don’t Preach”, “Frozen on Fire”, “Holiday”, and more—added another message that instantly grabbed everyone’s attention.

She went on to write, “God forbid a woman takes inspiration.” In her Instagram post, the Power of a Good-Bye singer also added, “I see you, I love you. You’re doing great, sweeties.”

While the post appeared empowering, many users chimed in with questions—specifically pointing to the time the “Open Your Heart” singer responded to Lady Gaga in the past.

“Where was this energy for Gaga?” a user asked on X (formerly Twitter).

Another person on social media also brought up the ongoing conversation about Lady Gaga, stating: “Oh yeah? When Lady Gaga first started to rise, she said Madonna was her inspiration and that ‘Express Yourself’ inspired ‘Born This Way.’ Then Madonna trashed her and said the song was a blatant ripoff.”

For those unfamiliar, Madonna publicly accused Lady Gaga of copying her music during a 2015 interview. She had already sparked controversy in 2012 when she famously called Gaga “reductive.”
