Jerry Seinfeld Calls Lady Gaga a Jerk

In a bashing the
New York Post deems a joke,
Jerry Seinfeld called out
Lady Gaga for her recent appearances at New York Yankees and Mets games -- she flipped dual middle fingers unrepentantly at one game, and showed up in
skimpy lingerie for both.
"This woman is a jerk. I hate her," Seinfeld said on WFAN radio Monday night, although he conceded she is talented. "I don't know why she's doing this stuff. I don't know what these young people think or how they promote their careers. I'm not one of these all-publicity-is-good people. People talk about you need exposure -- you could die of exposure."
Seinfeld told
WFAN host Steve Somers he's had enough of Lady Gaga, but that he wishes her the best -- though he was quick to tack on, "You take one 'A' off of that and you've got 'gag.'"

"You give people the finger and you get upgraded? Is that the world we're living in now?"
The comedian was referring, of course, to
the Mets incident: Gaga, wearing only a jacket and a studded leather bikini, appeared at Citi Field in the middle of the game, claimed her terrific seats and exploded when photographers paid too much attention to her. She subsequently upgraded to box seats -- box seats owned by longtime Mets fan Jerry Seinfeld -- where she proffered profane gestures for the paparazzi (pictured at left).
"Why is she giving the finger? How old is the finger? How'd it even get to be the finger?" Seinfeld riffed. While we haven't heard the audio interview,
that bit reads like the NBC star's signature style ... so
maybe it was all a joke? But "I hate her" and "she's a jerk" ring pretty harsh no matter how you slice 'em.

Lady Gaga is a phony and she knows it. Short on long term staying power like most of the pop stars out there, she's just a clown who needs to be the center of attention everywhere she goes. Spend your time and your money on the entertainers who are around for the longhaul. They're the real deal.

She is a clown and Jerry is right-on. Sure, she has a good voice, sings songs other people wrote and does idiotic dress-up acts. So what? Are people that shallow? Oops, I forgot "Sir" Elton John. I would pay to see either of them do a self-disembowelment show though.

How can you dis Elton John...he's been great for 40 years. And he does his own music.
GAGA is just a Madonna immitator.She dresses like her,songs are similiar,and doing this is the same shock that Madonna did way back in the 80's.
Reply
Anyone who goes too far over the top and demonstrates more "show" than talent is just like Madonna. Wonder how Madonna would feel if her beautiful daughter got on stage and feigned masturbation for a concert hall full of impressionable teenage girls. lol...yeah.
I'm right there with Jerry.....she's an idiot........but I do have to disagree about her talent........she has none!!!!!!!!!
Reply
Lady GAGA isn't very talented so your wrong that GAGA doesn't have talent. Lady GAGA isn't idiot either which is a lie.
You said a mouthful Jerry. This woman is a disgusting piece of work whose only talent is dressing like a fool and acting the same way. Why the media even prints anything she does only makes it worse. I wish that she would totally disappear....
Reply
Lady GAGA is very talented and isn't disguesting as you have claim which is a lie. Lady GAGA isn't acting the fool either another lie.
Lady Koo Koo GO HOME!!!

Lady GAGA is very talented Jerry was wrong but he is old and doesn't get it oh well. Maybe Lady GAGA had a bad day.

LADY GAGA IS VERY VERY IMMATURE!!!!!!!
Your dead wrong Whisenhuntb Lady GAGA isn't immature which is a lie.
You sound like a psychotic stalker! Please understand that she does not know you (I believe), and she could care less. Stick up for people who are actually a part of your life, rather than some celebrity that could care less.
to carlitorocks - isnt that the point of blogging? You wrote a very unusual statement for this type of forum.
Hey I'm old too but I think Gaga is a great talent - Her goofy outfits give me a laugh - but I do agree a baseball game's not the place to "act out" like a child - nor is it the place to wear just a bra and panties - Get real Gaga - Have fun - be normal - Perform on stage and "have a life" when off stage.

Gaga: Go go away

Jerry is just jelious coz he cant have her
besides i dont think jerry is all that great either
hes not funny like people think he is
I saw him in person wasnt all that great
so he has no room to talk
Reply
uh huh...right Tom....so you're the resident authority here, is that it?
If you show up anywhere dressed like that, it's pretty obvious you want attention. To act all up in arms (or fingers) when you get it, though, well, that's the fact that gets everyone's ire up. This Gaga is a big phoney. Personally, I can't wait until her star falls.
