So, not only does Taylor Swift
have a veritable flock of bona fide
country fans,
she seems to inspire affection
even from the most
unlikely sources.
Her latest admirer?
Shock-and-spectacle
expert Lady Gaga.
.
.
it’s true.Yep,
In a recent interview,
the quirky, award-winning entertainer
started out somewhat dissing Swift,
but ended up heaping genuine
praise instead.
When asked to name a song
she is embarrassed to like,
Gaga’s answer was,
“That Taylor Swift song?
‘You Belong With Me’?
Oh my God!
When it comes on the radio,
I sing it so loud.”
However,
she hastened to note that she’s
not slamming Taylor’s tune.
She explained that her
embarrassment comes
mostly from singing it
“so freely” and “so loud”
whenever she hears it.

whimsical every day,” “It’s very whimsical in a way
that I’m not necessarily
she noted.
That said,
she doesn’t think there’s anything
wrong with the song at all.
“It’s a great song!”
she insists.
Gaga’s final words on the matter?
“I didn’t mean that in a bad way,
Taylor.
I think you’re lovely and beautiful,
and I think you’re a great songwriter.”
I wrote a little while ago about
how Gaga and Swift are kind of
like the yin and yang of pop music,
so finding out Gaga is a fan of
Swift’s tickles me.
Now that the cat is out of the
bag and we know there’s love
all around
(well, I’m assuming on
Taylor’s side of things–
but she’s so nice,
she likes everyone),
I’d like to propose a Gaga-Swift duet.
The only question is–
what should they perform?
“You Belong With Me,”
or “Telephone”?
