Lady Gaga's Alter-Ego Reacts To Being Called A 'Guido'; Post-VMAs Jo Calderone Shows Off Foul-Mouth

After making a very surprise appearance as Jo Calderone, the slicked-back greaser, at Sunday's VMAs, Gaga had a few questions to answer.

But she was nowhere to be found.

Similarly to when she was questioned about her "bones" while promoting "Born this Way," Gaga was in full character, responding only to questions directed to Calderone.

And it turns out, he's a bit of a potty mouth.

When she appeared in the VMA press room, the gent explained (kind of) why he showed up instead of the Lady.

"She's just really f-ing pissed at me right now and she said, 'F- you. If you really love me, you'll go instead of me, and you'll get in that spotlight.' So I did."

Calderone went on to tell a little bit about himself. "I'm from Jersey. My family is from Palermo, Sicily, and I'm not a singer or a model or an actor or anything."

Then, someone suggested Mr. Calderone was a "guido," which caused him to lose his seemingly impenetrable cool.

"No, I'm not a f-ing guido! You don't like Italians? What the f-- is the matter with you?"

The press scrambled to find a subject to take his mind far away from the racial epithet--and that was Britney Spears.

When they asked if there was any possibility the two would get together, Calderone was noncommittal and responded as any gentleman would.

"She's f-ing hot. I don't know. You know, Gaga is my girl, but Britney is f-ing Britney Spears. Didn't you jerk off to Britney when you were a kid?"

Really liked this. Not a fan of Gaga's music, but I'm a fan of her as an artist and performer. This was great.

Is she trying to re-enact all of Madonna's ideas?

That one was Annie Lennox's idea.

Every generation does this. It was Marlene Deitrich's idea originally.

I am not a big fan of Madonna's, but you had to be living in a paper bag during the 80s and 90s not to be aware of her exploits and experimentations.

I have to say, Lady Gaga is no Madonna. Gaga is boring, uninispired and too PC.

Madonna was interesting - more than this, she was FUN!! She set out to shock and titilate and then dared anybody to make anything of it. She challenged feminists views, she challenged the Church, she challenged social mores. And she did it in a way that was interesting and cool!! She didn't care about orphans, people in wheelchairs or world peace - everything was about her own amusement. And she was funny - she had a sense of humour about everything she did.

Gaga is none of these things. She does bizzare things, but there is nothing intelligent, interesting or humerous behind it. She's just odd for the sake of being odd. There is nothing remotely intersting behind it. She couldn't even provide a coherent rationale for why she wore that awful meat suit. It just came out as disconnected jibber jabber.

And even in the manufactured world of meaningless pop, her songs are so vacious. Its all materialistic rubbish - about chasing boys, stalking rich people, driving flashy cars....boring.

Lady Gaga may be odd to you but:
She writes all her own songs-Madonna doesn't.
She actually sings in concert, no lipsyncing.
She created herself-Madonna was created by a bunch of promoters.
She can actually sing, and sing well--Madonna uses voice enhancements.
