The Inevitable Gaga/Madonna Mashup

On Friday, the big news of Hosni Mubarak's stunning departure from Egypt was competing with another major worldwide event;  the debut of Lady Gaga's new single.  Seriously. Both were competing trending topics on Facebook.  Since Friday, there has been a lot of hullabaloo about Gaga's "Born This Way" being a rip-off of Madonna's "Express Yourself".  I'd say it was definitely inspired by true pop events from 20 plus years ago.  Anyway, a young singer was so inspired he decided to make a mashup of the two hits and, in just a couple days, has garnered over 100,000 hits.  He's adorable but also has got some serious pipes.  Check it out below...
