Lady Gaga on the Difference Between Her & Madonna: 'I Write All My Own Music'

Lady Gaga and Madonna have been compared to each other since the start of Gaga's career, but the singer is making it clear that she's tired of it. During her 40-minute interview with Beats 1 Radio's Zane Lowe, Mother Monster explained just what makes the two pop stars different.

When Lowe says that Madge's life is parallel to hers with the two having overprotective fathers, Gaga is quick to fire back (see it at the 31:13 mark above):

"Madonna and I are very different, just saying. I wouldn't make that comparison at all. I don't mean to disrespect Madonna, she's a nice lady and she's had a fantastic huge career. She's the biggest pop star of all time. But I play a lot of instruments, I write all my own music. I spent hours and hours a day in the studio. I'm a producer, I'm a writer. What I do is different. I'm not just rehearsing over and over again to put on a show. There's a spontaneity in my work. I allow myself to fail, I allow myself to break. I'm not afraid of my flaws. There are major differences between me and her."
