Róisín Murphy (the women Lady Gaga supposedly steals her looks from) will be performing live at the Viktor & Rolf show in Paris on Saturday.

“We are attracted and inspired by what we call mega-women: strong women who follow their own path and are uncompromisingly themselves,” said the designers. “Róisín Murphy is a source of inspiration for us. We share with her the need for theatricality and performance in our work. Róisín personifies a power of transformation. On-stage she easily morphs into a beautifully fierce character, while off-stage she is the counterpart of her theatrical self: soft-spoken, modest, even quiet.”

As for the Murphy “I have been known to go to some extremes in my fashion choices but the Viktor & Rolf dress that I wore for my ‘Overpowered’ promotion had its own sound and lighting rig incorporated which tops them all.”

This article by Idolator has really opened my eyes, and really has me second guessing Gaga’s true ingenuity and style. Did she rip all of her looks off of Roisin Murphy? While the looks aren’t identical they are very similar. So maybe Gaga isn’t very creative after all.
