Madonna continues Lady Gaga feud: 'Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery'

But Madonna says the pair have plans to appear onstage together "very soon"

Madonna has aimed another jibe at Lady Gaga, accusing the younger singer of copying her.

During her show in Atlantic City on Saturday night (September 15), Madonna dedicated her song 'Masterpiece' to Gaga, before saying: "I love her. I love her. I do love her. Imitation is the highest form of flattery."

However, Madonna also suggested that the pair have plans to resolve their differences, adding: "And one day, very soon, we're gonna be on stage together. Just you wait."

The feud began in January of this year when Madonna claimed that Gaga's track 'Born This Way' sounded "familiar" to her 1989 hit 'Express Yourself'. Throughout this year's 'MDNA' tour, Madonna has mocked the similarities between the two songs by performing a mash-up of 'Express Yourself' and 'Born This Way' followed by a pointed snippet of a track called 'She's Not Me'.

During a show in Israel in June, Gaga seemed to respond to Madonna, telling the crowd: "It sometimes makes people feel better about themselves to put other people down or make fun of them or maybe make mockery of their work."

Elton John has also come to the younger singer's defence, claiming that Madonna had been "so horrible to Gaga" during a TV rant last month (August) in which he called the pop veteran a "fairground stripper"

On July 10 1985, The Playboy magazine issue of nude Madonna photos was released !!

Playboy publishes nude photos of Madonna taken before she was famous. The singer did a number of nude photo shoots from 1977-1980, starting when she was an 18-year-old student at the University of Michigan looking for some extra cash and trying to form a band. Now a huge star, Playboy publishes some of the shots taken in 1979 and 1980 in a revealing spread. A year earlier, the magazine turned down nude photos of Miss America winner Vanessa Williams , which their rival Penthouse published. "We think Vanessa genuinely didn't know what she was doing, didn't know her photos might be published," the article states. "Madonna, on the other hand, posed repeatedly for two noted photographers who routinely publish what they shoot." One of the photographers, Lee Friedlander, says of the shoot: "She seemed very confident, a street-wise girl." Madonna has little to say on the matter, but doesn't shy away. "I'm not ashamed,&q
