TMZ: "Lady Gaga attacks songwriter who sued her"

Ā 

Call Lady Gaga a thief ... and then prepare to cough up more than a mil to pay her army of lawyers who will tear you apart in court. Gaga has filed court docs -- obtained by TMZ -- to collect nearly $1.4 million she paid her lawyers ... to fight a woman who sued Lady G for allegedly ripping off one of her songs.

Ā 

Gaga -- one of the richest women in music -- claims she spent nearly three years and a fortune defending her reputation ... and in the end she won. A judge threw out the case ... concluding the 2 songs sounded nothing alike.

Ā 

Gaga wants the loser to foot her lawyer's bill.

The woman getting sued has now fought back with some pathetic essay: WHY YOU SHOULD CARE THAT LADY GAGA'S SUING ME FOR $1.4 MILLION

Ā 

Some of the main points she mentioned:

I sued Lady Gaga in August 2011 for allegedly plagiarizing my song ā€œJuda.ā€

Ā 

My allegation remains that my ex-engineer/ex-bass player/ex-boyfriend Brian manipulated and used my ā€œJudaā€ ProTool sessions – which he has copies of – as original source material for songs he sent Lady Gaga.

Ā 

You see, unlike real songwriters, Lady Gaga is, like her getups, fake. She has other people write for her, then takes the credit. It happens a lot in Hollywood today.

Ā 

So in spring of 2010 Lady Gaga sent her people to sniff around for original songs for her upcoming album Born This Way. Remember that song? Madonna’s Express Yourself?

Ā 

Anyway, my ex-engineer Brian (like most excellent musicians) was one of the first, penniless, class. Talented, but bereft of connections.

Ā 

His associate DJ White Shadow, however – a wanna-be if ever there was one – had contacts, lots of them. You know, DJs, right? They play other people’s songs? They don’t write them? And so the duo, like Kafka’s bumbling twins, sent along ā€œtheirā€ versions of my songs, to Lady Gaga.

Brian believing likely: ā€œIt doesn’t matter anyway, she’ll never pick ā€˜mine’.ā€

DJ White Shadow believing they’re his songs now because he changed them.

Whatever.

Either way – shockingly, unexpectedly – The Queen of Gag liked them.

A reasonable ending would have been Brian coughing up the truth.

Ā 

Why?

Ā· our choruses are nearly identical (I repeat ā€œJuda Juda Juda Juda Judaā€ over and over and she repeats ā€œJuda, Juda- us, Juda, Juda-us, Juda, Juda-usā€ over and over), accounting for roughly 20% of each song

Ā· our verses are both percussive and monotone in style (roughly 44% of each song)

Ā· our breakdowns are nearly identical (12% of each song)

Ā· a prominent melody line written by my violinist is the same as her ā€œOh oh oh oh oh I’m in love with Juda-ah, Juda-usā€ she pronounces ā€œJudasā€ as ā€œJuda-us.ā€ <– Whaa??

Among other ā€œcoincidences.ā€

Weird.

But not so weird if they used my Pro Tools session ā€œJudaā€ as source material to create ā€œJudas.ā€

What a f***ing prick.
