LADY GAGA is accused of not really being Born This Way and actually pinching her outfit ideas from other quirky divas.
Two singing legends have claimed the 25-year-old stole their signature styles.
Actress Bette Midler, 65, lashed out after GaGa dressed as a mermaid while in a wheelchair at a gig in Sydney last week. She tweeted: "I've been doing singing mermaid in a wheelchair since 1980. You can keep the meat dress and firecracker tits - the mermaid's mine."
Eighties star Grace Jones, 63, also claimed GaGa had copied her.
She said: "I've seen some of the things she's worn that I've worn and that kind of p***es me off."
Here are the looks Grace may be talking about...

Like everything in this generation, from sampling music, endless remade movies, to complete ripoffs in looks, nothing is original anymore!
Even Howard Stern was praising that Dave I Am dickhead from Black Eyed Peas for "creating" a totally original look with the black molded plastic hair pieces! :roll: Problem is, it was the look of Devo for the "New Traditionalists" album and tour back in 1982!
