Today in news truly no one was prepared for, Heidi Montag is out here claiming that Lady Gaga stole her song. Speaking on the Unpopular podcast, via Hollywood Life, Heidi said that she was working with producer RedOne and ended up recording a version of "Fashion" (which Gaga wrote, btw).
“[RedOne] and I were going to pair up and we were going to do what him and Lady Gaga ended up doing, which is writing every song together and producing,” she said. “He was like, ‘I just need to get the consent of the writer.’ And so I just thought Lady Gaga was a writer, because she was a writer on the song. And he was like, ‘Hey, I’m gonna cut ‘Fashion’ with Heidi. I have her in the studio, she loves it.’ And [Gaga’s] like, ‘Great. Sure, she can have that song.’ So then I recorded it and it was my song. That was the impression I was under.”
Clearly, said impression was...incorrect!
Heidi went on to explain that she recorded the song and used it during an appearance on The View, but that Gaga then recorded it for the 2009 Confessions of a Shopaholic soundtrack. “It’s hard because people are like, ‘I love Lady Gaga!’ And I’m like, ‘I’m sure she’s great but I have not had the best encounter with her.'”
“She did not want me working with RedOne and she told RedOne she wouldn’t work with him anymore if I kept working with him,” Heidi continued. “And he’s like, ‘I’m sorry. She’s my writing partner for huge things.’ We even went out to dinner with him several times and we were hanging out with him and she pulled the cord. And I was in the studio with her producer before she came out, so I think she saw that RedOne is one of the biggest and best producers and writers and if he takes Heidi that’s taking my magic. He wrote ‘Just Dance’ for her, he wrote almost every song with her and produced it. So of course she’s not going to want to share that when at that moment I was a potential rival for what she was doing.”
On top of all that, Heidi also took issue with Lady Gaga telling her on the phone how much she loved filming with her nemesis Lauren Conrad on an episode of The Hills. “I talked to her on the phone for a second and she was like, ‘I just filmed with Lauren and Whitney on The Hills.’ I was like, ‘Who is this girl? What is happening? She’s a hater, clearly!”
I mean, both versions of "Fashion" are absolute bangers imo.
