Bystanders who were watching a recent
rehearsal for Madonna's upcoming Tel Aviv, Israel performance on May 31 seemed
to have gotten a little more than they bargained for.
In a video that was released via YouTube
on Sunday (May 27), the iconic songstress took the stage to go over her hit
"Express Yourself" but instead threw in a little of Lady Gaga's "Born This Way"
about halfway through the performance, belting it out as if it were her
own.
Whether or not the Mother Monster is
aware of the mashup is unknown, but this could all stem back to many critics
claiming that Gaga's 2011 hit single had quite a resemblance to "Express
Yourself."
Despite the controversy, the 26-year-old
performer told Jay Leno on the "Tonight Show" last year that Madonna sent her
"love and complete support", but earlier this year the "MDNA" singer had a
slightly different opinion.
In an interview with Newsweek magazine
when she first got a taste of the song for herself the 53-year-old icon
described the new track as a "redo" of "Express Yourself” and "thought it was…
interesting."
