People of Occupy Wall Street, you may now return to your homes because the fight is finally over.
Lady Gaga has won an injunction against a cartoon character named Lady Goo Goo, according to Billboard.biz.
The offending culprit–a glamorous blonde baby rocking The Fame-era sunglasses–was a character featured in the virtual pet adoption game Moshi Monsters, founded by British company Mind Candy.
From Billboard:
British company Mind Candy is behind the Moshi Monsters site, which allows children to adopt a virtual pet monster.
Its characters include Lady Goo Goo, a sunglasses-wearing blonde baby who appears in “The Moshi Dance,” a video that became an online hit after it was posted on Google Inc.’s YouTube site in June.
The company had planned to release the song as a single, but this week’s British High Court ruling bars it from “promoting, advertising, selling, distributing or otherwise making available to the public” any work involving Lady Goo Goo.
Law firm Mishcon de Reya confirmed it had represented Lady Gaga in the case, but did not give further details.
Mind Candy founder Michael Acton Smith said the ruling was “a huge disappointment.”
“It was all done in the name of fun, and we would have thought that Lady Gaga could have seen the humor behind this parody,” he said.
The humor? THE HUMOR, GOOD SIR? You make me SICK.
As one can plainly see in the video above of Goo Goo’s song “The Moshi Dance,” the demon child wears a variety of zany things on her head, including (but not limited to) an octopus, spaghetti, and a boombox. Simply revolting. (It should be noted, however, that “The Moshi Dance” remains catchier than Gaga’s latest single, “Yoü and I.”)
Luckily, Mother Monster has put an end to the madness by formally aborting the imposter glitter baby. In other words?
SUCK IT, GOO GOO.
In related news, the suit against Lady Gaga for her infringement upon Madonna‘s entire career remains ongoing.
LOLOLOL JK: JUST BEING MAD SHADY, Y’ALL!
SIT DOWN AND SHUT THE FUCK UP.
According to an exclusive from SBNation, Queen of Quite Literally Everything Madonna is set to perform during the halftime show at Superbowl XLVI on February 5, 2012.
The performance would be timed perfectly with when Madonna recently said she’d be releasing the lead single from her as-of-yet untitled twelfth studio album.
But before y’all start selling your bodies on the street for a nosebleed seat at the arena (as I plan to do), let us not forget that Lady M had been rumored/expected to perform a few times in the past. From SB Nation:
As you’d expect for an artist with her mass appeal, this isn’t the first time Madonna’s been approached about performing at the Super Bowl. In 1998, it was heavily rumored that Madonna would perform at Super Bowl XXXIII in Miami, only to have the plans fall apart before a deal could be reached. Likewise, Madonna was reportedly to headline the halftime show for Super Bowl XXXV, two years later, but backed out at the last minute.
For now, we can only bow our heads and pray to the Almighty Madge for deliverance.
Madonna, ladies and ladyboys: Just one more reason–along with the tight pants and commercials (which will never be as legendary as any of Britney Pepsi commercials)–to watch the Superbowl next year. KICK A FOOT GOAL, BOIZ!!!11!1!
BOW THE FUCK DOWN.
Every now and then, there comes a time in which Madonna provides further proof as to why she will forever remain the Queen of Literally Everything. This is one of those moments.
Just seconds ago, Madge manager Guy Oseary tweeted a link to the video above in which…well, I mean…just WATCH.
And now you’ll have to pay…
WHICH STEM DO YOU WANT ME TO BREAK?
Madonna, Queen of Quite Literally Everything, has had a rather whirlwind week of promoting during her stay at the Venice Film Festival for the screening of her new directorial debut, W.E.
But apart from talking up her own film, the pop legend also let a few a few details slip about her upcoming release in 2012: During an interview with Sweden’s Sveriges Television, Lady M revealed that the lead single from her twelfth studio album will be released in February or March, and that the accompanying album would arrive later that Spring. She also went on to confirm the rumored collaboration with Ray of Light producer William Orbit, simply stammering (after being thoroughly caught off guard by the question of what to expect from the re-teaming): “…More good music!”
The Holy Madge also took the time to field a few questions from The Common People during a press conference at the film festival, as well as acepting a few sacrificial offerings.
Above is video evidence of one such gifting, as a Commoner feebly hands the Queen a long-stemmed hydrangea. Sadly, the gift-giver has clearly not spent nearly enough time worshiping at the Haus of M, as Madge quickly casts the wretched thing under the table and announces/overly enunciates off-camera: “I absolutely loathe hydrangeas.”
YOU FOOL: THE QUEEN WILL NOT HAVE YOUR FORSAKEN HYDRANGEAS, PLEASE AND THANK YOU.
Lesson learned: When in the presence of a legend, don’t bother bringing anything leafy. Then again, you know who doesn’t mind a good flower or two?
Just saying.
MuuMuse would like to wish a very happy birthday to the eternal icon: MADONNA.
Thank you for being the ultimate entertainer: A rule breaker, a risk taker, an escape from reality, an emblem of strength, a catalyst for social change, a true visionary, a role model and one of the greatest inspirations of all time.
You are, quite simply, the best.
LONG LIVE THE QUEEN!
LITERALLY STOP BREATHING, STOP YOUR ENTIRE LIFE AND SIT THE FUCK DOWN.
You stuck waiting around for Jersey Shore to air to see Brit Brit’s 2011 VMA promo? NO NEED: It’s here…and it’s FUCKING AMAZING.
Prancing into a room full of Spears impersonators and giddy B-Girl enthusiasts, the Holy Spearit gets into the groove as Janet Jackson‘s “Rhythm Nation” and Madonna‘s “Everybody” play overhead (!!!). Watch as Godney giggles, plays around in a photo booth and passes by walls filled with iconic track titles, including Michael Jackson‘s “Billy Jean,” Madonna’s “Like A Virgin” and Britney’s own “…Baby One More Time.” And then, the major reveal (along with a super epic B pose…GIF please!!!):
8/28: A TRIBUTE TO BRITNEY SPEARS.
I AM ABSOLUTELY FREAKING OUT RIGHT NOW!!!
Madonna, Michael, Janet…and now: Britney. Honoring the Holy Spearit like the MOTHERFUCKING ICON she is!
This commercial is a stan boy’s ultimate dream come true! I mean…the clipping of Britney’s head taped on top of Janet’s infamous Rolling Stone cover photo alone! I CAN’T TAKE IT, TAKE NO MORE.
THANK YOU, MTV. THANK YOU!!!
2011: YEAR OF THE SPEARS.
As Aaliyah would say: Age ain’t nothing but a number.
THIS is Liza* FUCKING Minnelli, age 65, posing for acclaimed photographer and full-time creeper Terry Richardson for a feature in an upcoming issue of the UK’s LOVE Magazine. (Check the full set of images thanks to my good friend Michael K. at PopBytes!)
Look at her absolutely serving every other pop bitch in the game…effortlessly! Just FLAWLESS. I’m so overcome! I’m emotional. I can’t. Not even a little.
It’s just nice to see a legend shining in the spotlight yet again. Seriously, I’ve got no time whatsoever for ageism or for those who refuse to learn their pop history: Respect the divas. Know your role. (And on a slightly selfish note, these photos are giving me the faith I need to believe that Madonna can still pull it out for many years to come…)
Now get in that studio and make me a sequel to Results, Miss Thing!
*with a Z, not Lisa with a S, ’cause Lisa with an S goes “sss” not “zzz.“
No, but wait, like–is this BRITMAS IN JULY RIGHT NOW?!
IT MUST BE.
Hot off the heels of the newly leaked alternate cut of “Gimme More” (I still can’t believe that happened), check out this newly leaked 16-second clip behind-the-scenes from Godney’s stellar cameo in the video backdrop for “Human Nature” on The Holy Madge‘s Sticky & Sweet Tour.
GOD, SHE’S SO FIERCENEY. Look at her rip that hoodie off, y’all!
So what’s next to leak? Original Doll?! The rumored video for “When Your Eyes Say It”?! I JUST WANT MOAH!!!
