Surf & get off my turf!

This bullshit battle between Lady GaGa('s fans) and Katy Perry('s fans) over who came up with the idea of being a mermaid first is—predictably—filleted by Madonna('s fans), who point/s out that Madonna came up with the idea of being a mermaid in the last century! (It was a "fin" de siècle moment...) She came up with the idea but didn't do it herself—ew! the costume!—instead prawning it off on her hapless male dancers. BUT STILL.

Katy: Planks, but no planks! GaGa: The one that got away with it!

Fuck Ariel! Fuck that Copenhagen bitch, too! So what if she's been sitting there since 1913? Perry is still a creativity whaler and GaGa just some roe to Madonna's mama fish.

In all seriousness, give me a fucking break. Dressing up as a mermaid is nothing new and Laurieann Gibson, GaGa's muse (IMHO, she's museless!), made a fool of herself by implying in a tweet that Perry had stolen the mermaid concept.

Bette Midler was a mermaid as far back as the 1600s!

I can assure you Katy Perry and Lady GaGa don't have horses, let alone fish, in this race.
