Lady Gaga's recent performance...

[SURREAL__RAINBOW]

madonna did the crucifixion i think? and not the coffin xD maybe someone got those 2 mixed up??

either way, the coffin theme ain't that original as someone mentioned earlier, still pretty cool, i would still do it if i was famous

[Oniisan]

OMFG lol. This is as ridiculous as if I would be copying some dead guy when I die and when I go to grave in a COFFIN.

[Jester]

MJ also has the coffin on his stage while performing Thriller back in 1992 Dangerous tour

R.I.P MJ

BTW, i don't like born this way era. she's so disgusting

[Andrenekoi]

Madonna never used a coffin...

Watched the whole thing... really... if u take the outfits and the props, there's nothing interesting on her as a performer (even if she does have a good voice)

I've seen pregnant women, like, the real thing, performing better... x_x

lol what I was trying to say with that video is that it's ridiculous to say someone copied someone because something like that is just NOT NEW anymore & I can give my head to be cut that Ayu is totally not the first one who had ever done that in a music hystory plus I think we are forgeting what copying actually means

oh and u know guys how it is said... great minds think alike lol

[TeamAyu2004]

^ I thought it was great minds think for themselves??

But when it comes to music... i think we need to understand NOTHING is original anymore, specially when it comes to pop music (which gaga, ayumi, gackt, and just about anything that is popular. (of course there is a lot of music that isnt pop music, but popular...but they utilize the same concepts.)

But I would like to think Gaga is trying to be "different" and meaningful, but sadly i think she is just doing half the stuff she does for shock value... which is a major turn off.. i like her, but her "ideas" are... different... lol

[channy]

Nothing worse on this planet than american sex-pop.

But honestly: I don't think this should be considered as 'copying'. A coffin is a coffin and like many users already pointed out, it's not such an unique object that anyone could possibly say "It was my invention to use it on stage".

Just to be fair. I see no copying.

[Bubbly]

Of course Gaga is copying Ayu! I mean...SHE IS SINGING! And Ayu was singing to so I think Gaga totally is a copy of Ayu! I don't even start about how Gaga is a woman and a human and got eyes and a nose...how can she copy Ayu like that! If she gets dogs next we know that she wants to be Ayu!

[love in music]

common theme, ayu does it better bc she's not a try-hard.

Definitely.

It's almost blasphemy to mention Ayu in one sentence with Gaga anyways

It wasn't even relevent she didn't give birth to anything she just took the belly off at the end. So pointless

[JackieRos]

I get that vibe that GaGa is copying ayu on alot of things bit whatever

[panda87]

well, lady gaga did say her work is highly influenced by japan culture. i forget the source, sorry *braces self* just sayin. love the coffin idea. if i was a singer, i'd use it for myself too. *shrugs* originally is pretty much a myth these days. ha-ha-ha. let's have some beer.

Go watch the Born This Way video.

hsienko: It actually is relevant because, you know, her whole shtick now is she's "Mother Monster." And, again, go watch the Born This Way video. Christ, you people need to think things through before you go off complaining lol.

[maikaru]

I think the concept of Gaga's performance was that she's going to give birth to Born This Way soon.

Anyways, the position of her back dancers in Gaga's performance is SOOO similar to Ayu's.

[channy]

But Gaga invented the cheap clown wig:

Spoiler:

Oh. This is wonderful. She might be booked for children birthday partys with dat thing on her head.

[gallowsCalibrator]

In Ayu's performance...at the end...did that guy (can't tell who it is) bite Ayu on the neck? O___o

Ahaha, some themes are used by many people, I wouldn't say anyone's copying anyone else~ I'm sure coffins are a common theme for people onstage~

[jon_the_d]

That's a very heart-felt and emotional performance about the time of ayu's life when she was turned and became a vampayu. very touching that she shared such a traumatic time with us.

I think gaga comes up with her stuff using manatees and her own set of gaga idea balls.

Yeah I'd rather not, after that abortion that was the Alejandro video I'm never gonna waste my time watching another one of her MVs . Obviously no one got the whole concept since I'm not the only one here who asked why she's pregnant.
