Fans of the Sex Pistols are well accustomed to John Lydon‘s frank and blunt statements. In a recent conversation, this legendary band’s lead singer, also recognized as Johnny Rotten, has been criticizing Lady Gaga rather harshly. These remarks have caused quite a stir in the world of music.

Here’s everything you need to know about John Lydon’s harsh comments on Lady Gaga.

What did John Lydon say about Lady Gaga?

Reflecting on my earlier admiration for Lady Gaga, I must confess that my perspective has shifted significantly in recent times. In an open conversation with NME, I expressed some rather critical opinions about her artistry, emphasizing areas where I believe she could grow and evolve even further.

John Lydon, formerly of the Sex Pistols, compared Lady Gaga’s performance to Bowie-era pop music that was intricately layered and impressive. However, he went on to say that she has transformed into something akin to an alternate universe, or “Bizarro World.” He criticized her artistic decisions, stating that he perceives a lack of authenticity in her work. He further expressed his dislike for her as a person, commenting that she doesn’t seem wholesome. In conclusion, Lydon lamented that he doesn’t feel any genuine emotion or soul from Gaga, suggesting that she could have another side to her that is yet to be revealed.

Lydon expressed views similar to Taylor Swift, labeling her as “exceptionally uninteresting.” He also voiced his disapproval of her artistic approach, claiming that she’s “running out of options and has adopted a glamorous, ballroom-style image. It seems she might end up performing in Las Vegas since it appears to be the only place left for artists like her…

In a recent interview with NME, Lydon discussed various subjects, including being inspired by Heath Ledger’s performance in The Dark Knight, his potential collaboration with Daft Punk that remains unfinished, and his role as the villain Meat Sweats in Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Other topics were also touched upon during the interview.
