Gaga shouts out Whitney at the Grammys and says that Whitney inspired her when she wrote, 'Born this way'! Who knew Gaga was a fan but then Krissi said at the AMAs in 2009 gaga kept staring at Whitney and whitney was scared of her in that meat dress, lol! www.mtv.com/news/articles/1657859/lady-gaga-grammy-awards.jhtmlFeb 13 2011 10:15 PM EST 14,380 Lady Gaga Gives Whitney Houston Grammy Awards Shout-Out 'When I wrote 'Born This Way,' I imagined she was singing it,' Gaga said accepting award for Best Pop Vocal Album. By Jocelyn Vena (@jocelyn1212) 13 3 0 More »Text Size Decrease Increase ... After hatching from her egg and being "Born" onstage, Lady Gaga won the Grammy for Best Pop Vocal Album for The Fame Monster. Gaga beat out Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, Susan Boyle and John Mayer for the big prize. Taking the stage in a high ponytail, dominatrix-style leather bustier, knee-high boots and sunglasses, Gaga took the trophy from Selena Gomez and her onetime tourmate, New Kid on the Block Donnie Wahlberg. "Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart to all my fans, all the monsters, watching," she said, clutching her prize. "Thank you to my father, my mother, my beautiful sister, Natalie, I love you." After thanking family and friends, as well as her managers and record label team, the singer shared a personal message. "I had this dream when I was really young that I could be whoever I wanted to be ... and no matter what I envisioned for myself, that I would do it, no matter who didn't believe in me," she said. "Thank you so much." Although most of Gaga's acceptance speech was devoted to the people you would imagine, she also had a thank-you for one unexpected person. "I need to say thank you tonight to Whitney Houston. I wanted to thank Whitney because when I wrote 'Born This Way,' I imagined she was singing it because I wasn't secure enough in myself to imagine I was a superstar. So Whitney, I imagined you were singing 'Born This Way' when I wrote it. Thank you." Moments before winning the Best Pop Vocal Album Grammy, Gaga performed "Born This Way," the first single off of her May album of the same name. The pop star also took home the prize for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for "Bad Romance" earlier on Sunday night (February 13).

Whitney stay on people's brains! You've got that right! Has Whitney publicly reacted to GaGa's speech? I'm just fantasizing here, but a BTW duet remix would be off the meat racks. Nippy's swagger on vocals and presence would blow Beysic's "Telephone" antics into a moving bus.

I know some are trying to say Gaga only mentioned Whitney to snub Madonna because of all the Madonna comparisons to her new song, but who cares?? It gave Whitney more free publicity in the end.

I agree, free pr for Whitney but I don't think GAGA is stupid enough to risk a public backlash from shading Madonna. I'm leaning towards believeing GAGa. An artist can have more than one influence. She said in regards to vocals and how she sang the song not the music which is clearly inspired from Madonna. .

If anything, Madonna's posting of the "Express Yourself" VMA performance on her YT was more a knowing wink  than any kind of gauntlet thrown. These two seem to have a great deal of respect for each other; GaGa clearly worships and owes a great debt to Madonna, so I really don't see her biting the hand. Well I'm ready to be turnt out - LEEGOOOOOOOOOOOO lol.

She said in regards to vocals and how she sang the song not the music which is clearly inspired from Madonna. . ^^Gaga said in her Vogue interview that her vocals would be more prominent and theatrical on BTW (the album). Her stylist and the creative director for Thierry Mugler, Nicola Formichetti, described a song from the album that was remixed for his Mugler show as "techno meets Whitney, in a good way". And that was a month ago, before all this Madonna brouhaha. Some people are really reaching -- I bet at least half of those screaming Madonna copycat have never even heard 'Express Yourself' and most didn't give two s**ts about Madonna before all this.

I can't believe all this media hoopla over Gaga's Whitney shout out  there's literally thousands of articles about it on google news. The media is amazing to me. Makes the biggest deal over the smallest things.

WTH @ this silly video. LOL! Dionne's son filmed this little skit, I guess you would say, about the family doing an intervention on the way he acts out? IDK, Whitney's in it though.

Nippy better work that buzz and get on that WTE sequel + new album soon. According to Nic, Whitney's godson who lives with her, they will be going back to Atlanta this week and then back to Los Angeles in 4 wks for Whitney to begin shooting a movie in March. No idea the name of the movie. Krissi said that she can't say, it's a surprise.
