Lady Gaga’s Copycat Ways Strike Again — This Time She’s Stealing From Taylor Swift!

Taylor may not have a monopoly on the heart symbol, but she pretty much owns it at this point!

Lady Gaga released her instantly controversial new video for “Judas” to much debate, ad it seems like in the mix everyone missed one major snafu — Gaga is totally ripping off Taylor Swift! We know everyone from Taylor to Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez have crafted the popular hand heart while performing, but at this point it is Taylor’s signature. Why would Gaga use it?

This is not the first time Gaga has been accused of ripping another artist off, with Madonna being a frequent target. The heart comes up in Gaga’s dance during the chorus so you can see it more than a few times in the video below. Take a look and let us know — do you think Gaga is copying Taylor?

It’s just a hand gesture…geez.
I’m a Swift fan, but it’s something everyone can do. Don’t you have better things to post about?

Who is ripping off whom with the use of these hand symbols? I’ve seen this before in the Ting Ting ‘Shut up and Let Me Go’ video which predates Taylors use of it. Break dancing as part of a comedy act was done by the ‘Three Stooges’ back in the 1930′s or 1940′s, nobody complained. Get over it and enjoy the show.

Uhm @courtes what are you, like 13? Justin Bieber wasn’t even famous when Taylor was touring and using the heart sign. She may not own the ‘rights’ or whatever, but no one can deny…SHE IS THE ONE WHO MADE IT FAMOUS!! Point Blank!! #thatisall

This story is pathetic. Taylor isn’t even the first to do this. Besides it’s mentioned that a lot of other people make the same symbol. Why is it okay for Selena Gomez but Gaga gets attacked?

    I agree! This is just ridiculous. It’s not like Taylor Swift invented it or has any rights to it.
