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.

Her last name is Germanotti, which is ironic because like a GERM she is gross and makes me sick. The only people who like Lady GaGa are f*gs and their hags. She's trying SO hard to be Madonna, but it's difficult since she has none of the talent. She is also a huge disgrace to Italian-Americans.

I disagree..Gaga has as much talent as Madonna which is ZERO..Madonna is a joke just like Gaga..I'm sure gaga figured that if madonna could make it so could she..all it takes is to be willing to act trashy and act as if you're something special and the public eats that crap up..the fact that people have made madonna and gaga "stars" shows how stupid and gullible people are
What makes her awesome is that no matter you hate her or not you're still talking about her.

Jerry Seinfeld is a jerk. I don't find him funny, I find him rather annoying. Maybe Lady Gaga should not have been out in public dressed the way she was, or give the finger, as there are younger children in the audience. I will say that she has more talent in her than Jerry will ever have.

Hmm. Lets See...She Wears Nothing But A Leather Bra and Underwear To A National Baseball Game And She Doesn't Know Why She Can't Be Left Alone?? Get Real. Wipe Off The Clown Make Up,Put On A Pair Of Jeans And A Nice Top And Go To The Game! Oh No,But Wait...Then She Would Be Just Like The Rest Of Us,And No One Would Reconize Her...She Knows EXACTLY What She Is Doing..

She is only good at one thing...being a "sleezebag".

I agree she acts more like trailer trash than a star. I don't care how talented anyone is when they act like she does I would not walk across the street to see/hear her. They say that she is very intelligent, she sure doesn't act like it! Is she trying to be the next Madonna? I didn't like her either. So many young people act stupid now, where are their parents, and why don't they teach their children respect and responsibility?

She should learn a lesson from Lohan. What has Lohan done lately? Be sides laying in the gutter, showing her "twat".

I agree with Jerry, too. There is nothing wrong with being different, and she certainly is talented, but the days of a good voice overshadowing horrible behavior is over. People are sick of it. There are lots and lots of people out there with talent that are not discovered yet because they are not willing to stoop to the level she has to get attention. She may be laughing all the way to the bank, but it will be fleeting.

I wonder if I would get in a game if I showed up dressed like that....I doubt it ,while I do like her music ,I think she should dress appropriate when she is not performing......cheap and trashy ,thats the only thing I can type about her

When it gets to a point where you have to take off your clothes and give a big finger to the crowds...who MIGHT have been fans...you know you should be looking for a better day job.

Could not have said it better Jerry, these young people have to have shock value because most of them can't get by on talent.

The media is trying to kill Gaga. It's time for monsters to step up. Time to delete accounts on all media places. Cnn, Huffington report , mtv etc. Time to ignore the media! Go to U Tube friends you know and delete the ones that never respond.

WHO AND WHAT IN THE HELL IS A LADY GAGA?

Does anyone really care what some idiot scientologist thinks about anyone? I sure the hell dont!

Lady Gaga is a talented musician. She is a performance artist as well so the crazy stage costumes are fine. Even some crazy outfits for going about town to be consistent with her image or I guess express herself - okay too. But frankly, her behavior at the b-games has been pathetic! She shows up to a game filled with photographers in her underwear and then feigns she wasn't looking for attention? Obvious act on her part, but ridiculous one at that. Why give her the attention she so desperately craves? Honestly, talented as she may be, there are clear psychological issues shining through as well and I worry about her handling the fame and attention and not going off the deep end ala Britney or Lindsay.

I want to bang her
