What do Lady GaGa and Madonna have in common?

Lady Gaga and Madonna share a very unique sense of fashion.

Style

Madonna's day has past, the day of gaga is upon us. :D

they are both blonde, and thats about it considering gaga actually has talent

Madonna wasn't exactly original, a lot of what she did was derivative too. She copied many old tunes, old iconic movie star images etc. But what Gaga learned from her is the lesson of how Madonna manipulated the media, formed a cult of personality. Lady Gaga isn't as pretty as Britney/Madonna so seems to think she has to resort to attention seeking stunts to compensate. A shame because I think she has more basic talent than either, and knows how to combine it with solid pop tunes. But that talent seems to be getting lost now in the scheme of things.

Madonna had a very limited musical talent but was a very clever reader of the pop market and exploited it to the full.

Madonna is like gagas "idol". She copies everything she has done ex: the sparkiea thingies

Their act is exactly the same.

They look alike.

They're both bleached blonde brats.

What Lady Gaga has in common with Madonna is simple. Everything Gaga has done was previously done by Madonna. At first glance, she seems to be this goofy, eccentric, offbeat musician, with a quirky sense of fashion and an edgy outlook on sex and sexuality. Further investigation reveals that her style is just a composite of her favorite musicians, with very little personal flair thrown in. Her clothing? All created by a fashion designer.

So, basically if you are looking for originality, look to Madonna. She did many many things that musicians previously never dared to dream about. She was one of the first openly bisexual performers of the 80s/90s and her clothing was racy like nothing before it. Lady Gaga just basically did a copy/paste then blended things around a little. Her music is basically filler, and you can likely blame most or possibly all her success on the lack of real music education in schools.

And that's the best advice I can give.

Nether of them are afraid to push the extreme

Nothing Gaga just copies Madonna.
