Katy Perry, take note. This is how you feud with Lady Gaga.
By now we're all familiar with the backstory: half-naked exhibitionist goes to Mets game, flips off photographers and takes up residence in Jerry Seinfeld's VIP box, all unbeknownst to the comic.
Well, consider him, uh, beknownst. And from the sounds of it, less than impressed.
Of course, it all started off nice enough.
"I wish her the best," he said in an interview with New York's WFAN radio of the Gaga brouhaha. "You know, you take one 'a' off of that, you've got gag."
And a comedian on a roll.
"I don't know what these people think or how they promote their careers," he said. "I'm older, I'm 56…I'm not one of these 'all publicity is good' people. People talk about you need exposure—you could die of exposure. I don't understand how this is good for her."
Just like most people won't understand how this is good for him—though make no mistake, it is.
Still, so far, so harmless, right? Not for long. Joking or not, Seinfeld soon went for the jugular (it must've taken him awhile to find it under all those rhinestones and glitter).
"You know I changed my mind, you're right, this woman's a jerk. I hate her. I can't believe they put her in my box that I paid for. You give people the finger and you get upgraded? Is that the world we're living in now?
"It's pathetic."
When asked if he was aware of her skybox takeover, he responded, "No, how would I know anything? I wasn't even there.
"I came for the night game and heard all about it. That was a double-header that day, remember? Oh, she's a jerk. Giving the finger, what is she giving the finger? Speaking of interesting and new…how old is the finger?"
I love this statement. The king of understatement.
Lady Caca ping.
I thought it was Doris.
Just consider it a tax, Jerry.
"You know I changed my mind, you're right, this woman's a jerk. I hate her. I can't believe they put her in my box that I paid for. You give people the finger and you get upgraded? Is that the world we're living in now?
Yes. It is.
"It's pathetic."
Yes. It is.
TV announcer: Thanks for watching Nine News. We leave you tonight with a scene from Lady Gaga's one woman show.< /seinfeldGaga: Ok so I go to meet Jerry Seinfeld at this horrible coffee shop right? And he's like "Hey stop doing your show." and I'm like, Hello! It's a free country. So then he goes." Okay Shmootsie" and he starts pulling at my sweater right?. He's getting , you know, Hands Across America.
Jerry: There really was shmootz on I didn't try to grab her
Gaga: ...And this is what he looks like when he's eating...
Jerry: Get Out of my House!!.
Oh yeah, class all the way.
I like that song too. I have a few others of her songs on my iPod.
She's still weird.
Here she is bailing in some ridiculous shoes. Hehe. Click on the thumbnails to see the crazy shoes.
Ping!
“People are the WORST!”
No one gives us the finger! We’re Yankees!
GEORGE: Oh, the bookstore girl. How’s that goin’?
JERRY: Okay. I’m just not gaga over her. For once I’d like to be gaga.
Kramer: I think you’re gaga over this dame. She’s twisted you around her little finger, and now, you’re willing to sell me, and Elaine, and whoever else you have to, right down the river.
