Lady Gaga hits back after 'Born This Way' is dubbed the 'most pretentious album ever'

Lady Gaga has responded after NME dubbed 'Born This Way' the "most pretentious album ever".

The singer took to Twitter to vent her anger after she read our recent blog post - titled The 10 Most Pretentious Albums Ever.

Gaga wrote:

Oh the irony of winning "Most Pretentious Album Ever" from none other than NME. *eyeroll* I might laugh forever + then return to narcissism.

The singer's 2011 album was among a host of LPs criticised for being pretentious including Metallica and Lou Reed's recent collaboration 'Lulu', The Smashing Pumpkins' 'Machina/The Machines Of God' and Mansun's 'Six'.

Gaga recently revealed that she overcame bulimia to save her singing voice. "I used to throw up all the time in high school, so I'm not that confident," she said.

"And maybe it's easier for me to talk about it now because I don't do it anymore. I wanted to be a skinny little ballerina but I was a voluptuous little Italian girl whose dad had meatballs on the table every night.

"I used to come home and say, 'Dad, why do you always give us this food? I need to be thin. 'And he'd say, 'Eat your spaghetti.'"

The Top 10 on our list was as follows:

1. Lady Gaga – 'Born This Way'
2. Terence Trent D'Arby – 'Neither Fish Nor Flesh'
3. Lou Reed and Metallica – 'Lulu'
4. Lou Reed – 'Metal Machine Music'
5. The Passengers – 'Original Soundtracks (Volume 1)'
6. Mansun – 'Six'
7. KISS - 'Music From 'The Elder''
8. Transvision Vamp – 'Little Magnets Versus The Bubble Of Babble'
9. The Smashing Pumpkins – 'Machina / The Machines Of God'
10. Pete Townshend - 'Psychoderelict'

Noel Gallagher on Chris Martin: He's The Polar Opposite of Me

---

Mancunian rocker Noel Gallagher has opened up about his relationship with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin after the singer played piano for Noel and his new band the High Flying Birds at the BRIT Awards on Tuesday – and revealed that he’s been trying his hardest to get Martin to ‘share Marlboro Light with him, but to no avail.

ImageNoel has claimed that he is the polar opposite of Martin – with the Coldplay man living a clean cut lifestyle and Noel ‘not giving a shit’. Apparently, Martin had told Noel that he should come along to one of his Yoga classes, but Noel has told the singer that he’ll only attend if he’ll smoke a cigarette with him.

Speaking to The Sun, Gallagher said “He's my mate and the polar opposite of me. He does yoga and doesn't smoke. I'm trying to get him to smoke but he's not having it. I said to him I'll do the fucking crab or the scorpion if he shares a Marlboro Light with me.”

He continued on to say, “But he's not having it. He's taller than me so he'll probably put me in a headlock, roll me into a ball and throw me into a swimming pool,” before adding that Martin was “very thoughtful - the polar opposite of me. He likes to have things perfectly right and I couldn't give a shit,” in reference to their performance at the BRITs on Tuesday.

Damon Albarn and Noel Gallagher share a hug after the Brits

Damon Albarn and Noel Gallagher shared a hug after the Brit Awards on Tuesday (February 21).

The former Britpop rivals drank together onboard a boat on the Thames, which had been hired by record label EMI hfor their post-ceremony bash.

The embrace came after both parties confirmed they had buried the hatchet in recent NME interviews. In this week's issue, Damon explained he had a beer with Noel last year and said his former Oasis rival has "great charisma". Meanwhile, in last week's NME, Noel described Damon as being "as mad as a box of frogs" and imagined working with him on a new album. He'd get a load of hip-hop dudes working on, which itself would be fucking mental".

"It's funny to think Blur were last here 17 years ago when we were big rivals," Damon told the Evening Standard. "Isn't it funny how we've both mellowed after all these years? We've buried the hatchet."

Both parties performed at the awards ceremony, with Blur recipients of the Outstanding Contribution award, while Noel walked away empty handed after being nominated in the Best Male Solo Artist category.

Hear Kasabian's new track 'Narc' now

Kasabian have posted a demo for a brand new song on their new website, Kasabianlive.com.

A video of the new song, which is titled 'Narc', can be seen by scrolling below:

The track follows the posting of the 44-second long 'Table Tennis Boom Box' which was recently posted.

Earlier this month Kasabian frontman Tom Meighan insisted there was a "drought" of rock'n'roll bands in the charts. According to Contact Music, the singer said he was "glad" he and his bandmates provided an alternative to groups who were "frightened" of making more interesting records, while guitarist Serge Pizzorno claimed that music was "overrun by pop".

Meighan said:

There's a rock'n'roll drought at the moment, so I'm glad we're here. People are frightened of making records that sound good on the radio.

Pizzorno went on to add: "We've been overrun by pop and I hate that indie attitude. Life's too short to give a fuck."

Last year Kasabian claimed they were "an albums band now" and were no longer interested in releasing "big hit singles". The band released their fourth studio album, 'Velociraptor!', in September last year
