Lady Gaga Says She's Like David Bowie, Queen & Madonna

Gaga said, "What I have in common with David Bowie and with Queen and with Prince and with Madonna is the way that I combine theatrics and the visual in all of my performance. The fashion and the imagery and what I am trying to say as an artist goes much further beyond the music".

She continues, "I don't like when bands compare themselves to artists from the past and try to mimic them and their music and it sounds like a copycat. The intention for me is not to sound just like Bowie or Madonna or Prince. It is to pull references from all of these different people and create something fresh and new and futuristic and pop and different."

She also said, "I do sing more like a guy than like a girl so all of those male references that I am pulling, you can hear it in my voice."
