Well, about the age - Madonna once said: ‘Not only does society suffer from racism and sexism, it also suffers from ageism. Once you reach a certain age you're not allowed to be adventurous, you're not allowed to be sexual. I mean, is there a rule? Are you supposed to just die? I've never been a conformist. I find whenever someone writes anything about me, my age is right after my name. It's almost like they're saying, 'Here she is, but remember, she's this age, so she's not that relevant anymore’'.
About Lady GaGa - Madonna has been polite to her in the past but recently, she said: ‘As for Lady GaGa, I have no comment to make about her obsessions having to do with me because I don't know whether her behavior is rooted in something deep and meaningful, or superficial’.
