MADONNA VS. LADY GAGA ON ‘SNL’

The first TV encounter of Madonna and Lady Gaga came during “Saturday Night Live” this week, when the Material Girl appeared unannounced in a Deep House Dish skit alongside the contemporary hitmaker when a similar bizarre visual bent.
A few bars into a song and dance number, Madonna grabbed Lady Gaga’s blonde hair and here was one of those cliched hair-pulling catfights in skimpy outfits. “What the hell is a disco stick?” she demanded.
The dance number didn’t seem to go as planned. Lady Gaga sang while Madonna didn’t. It didn’t matter — seeing them together was the big thing.
Invited to sit on the couch, they continued their fake fighting.
“Guess what Madonna I’m totally hotter than you!”
“Guess what I’m totally taller than you,” she replied adding: “What kind of name is Lady Gaga. It sounds like baby food…”
“The kind that’s No. 1 on the Billboard charts,” Gaga replied lunging on her.
Keenan Thompson’s character wanted them to make up. And because some dude wrote it, he asked them to kiss. Madonna’s kiss to other female pop stars has been some kind of annointment in the past, as when she laid on on Britney Spears at a past MTV video music awards. But Keenan’s character interjected himself between them to receive their kisses.
Madonna was the biggest of several guest stars on the show, ironically hosted by one of the least known stars, Ryan Reynolds.
Darrell Hammond, apparently freelancing on the show after the longest run as a cast member made his first “Saturday Night Live” appearance as Arnold Schwarzenegger, behind so much prosthetic makeup he was hardly recognizable.
The Letterman situation was mentioned in “Weekend Update” as a “Stupid human trick.” But a whole retro “Celebrity Family Fued” skit was built around the John Phillips revelation

Madonna look definetely hotter than Gaga!!! But the sketch was lame and not very well rehearsed…
I mean, it wasn’t that lame. It was kind of funny… I just wanna know how can Madonna look way hotter than Gaga being more than twice Gaga’s age.
It looks like they thought it up 5 mins earlier! Just fun to see both ladies, but they could’ve done better with the bitchy verbal tussle.
I WAS ACTUALLY SURPRISED, WHEN I SAW THE SKIT AT FIRST I WAS NOT SURE IT WAS MADONNA, BUT THEN I REALIZED GOOD GOD IT IS HER AND SHE LOOKS INCREDIBLE, DIDNT CARE TOO MUCH FOR THE SKIT HOWEVER IT WAS LOVELY TO SEE THE QUUEN ON SNL AGAIN, SHE SHOULD HAVE DONE A FEW MORE SKITS!!!
LOVED HER
Madonna looked absolutely stunning. Such a QUEEN I must say!
Anyway, the skit was just really for laughs. Well-rehearsed or not, the fact is that Madonna was on SNL. It was simply fun to see her seem down to earth!
why is Madonna even paying any attention to this copycat?
people are praising GaGa like she’s something new, when M was doing all this decades before her, and better
it was a cute skit. i laughed. madonna is THE QUEEN!
I guess I will join the others with comments. Madonna looked incredible. Gaga is one ugly beast!
what the hell are they doing? yet it funny to see a fake catfight. LOL….
The only thing Gaga copies from Madonna is the ’shock factor’. Personally, I can’t recall when Madonna has sounded as good live as Gaga manages to do everytime she performs anywhere!
madonna-you-looking-good
I really love lady gagas make up, i allready tried to do it myself, but it is really hard.
