ROISIN MURPHY - MURPHY: 'GAGA IS A STYLE THIEF'

MURPHY: 'GAGA IS A STYLE THIEF'

Irish singer ROISIN MURPHY has accused LADY GAGA of copying her outrageous style and attempting to pass it off as her own.
The Just Dance hitmaker has been lauded as a fashion pioneer since topping the charts with her debut album The Fame, becoming a tabloid staple with her oversized hats, thigh-high boots and daring headpieces.
But former Moloko frontwoman Murphy maintains she's responsible for dreaming up the pop star's outlandish looks.
Murphy reportedly told the Daily Mail, "She's copied my style. I met her about a year ago before she got really big and I had no clue that this was all going to happen. She wasn't wearing shoulder pads at the time, and I was.
"Lady Gaga is just a poor imitation of me. She has copied my style, she took my shoulder pads and all that. Mind you she doesn't wear the bottom half!"
