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.

cherry, Why are you telling her to go home? Obviously you are clueless. She is from NY, and has been working in NY for years, so she is home and you can suck it.
Jerry was asked about this incident because it happened in HIS box seats that he DID NOT give her permission to sit in. I'm a HUGE Seinfeld fan.. have been for years.. I'm a BIG Lady Gaga fan.. practically obsessed.. but I find myself upset with her actions inside Jerry's box. I'm with him on this one.. she was out of line.

I think Seinfeld is also an Azzhole but in this case I would have to agree with him

Jerry, WHO? who the heck is that?

Jerry is used to talking with 14 year olds who do not question him (aka his wife)

If that were any old "Joe" displaying that behavior at a baseball game they would get ejected from the park! Not given an upgrade!!! Why as a society do we continue to give these "people" special treatment? What makes them so much more different from the rest of us?

Lady Gaga was not a LADY!! Show some respect for yourself famous or not, or at least respect others.
She's a New York Skanky.

Why can't singers stick to their music and stop using gimmicks like wearing those weird outfits Lady Gaga wears. When I listen to a singer, I am impressed with their singing style and quality of voice and definitely not with any weird clothes they wear. When I buy a CD, I remember how the artist presents himself/herself onstage and in public. I think the audience wants to see singers who dress in proper style that is identifiable with their audience.

Go Jerry, the woman is an attention starved moron, wearing underwear only to a baseball game, she's a loser.

Did they say, "Lady Ca-Ca?

I think Gaga has the right to dress as she pleases, just like Jerry wears his jeans all the way up to his chest, with the shirt tucked in, and white sneakers. I think he dresses badly, but I wouldn't say that I hate him or that he is a jerk. That is immature, he was the baby here. I smell a jelous has-been jew.

You make up and dress like trash too?
Lady Gaga is the worst. When she is on TV I change the channel

She is a jerk. And she has no talent. Just another example of the media turning trailer trash into a pseudo-star. Why is AOL even bothering to cover her?

JERRY = OLD SORRY A-S-S H-O-L-E !!

Is Elton John designing outfits for Lady Gaga. In order to pronounce her stage name correctly, first you have to stick one of your fingers down your throat and get the heaving reaction at the same time pronounce her name.

I'm glad to hear some one finally speak out against this trashy, crude and rude piece of work. Why anyone would give a dollar to see this frumpy freak is beyond me.

Jerry is right...I glad someone is taking a stand.
