Update: Lady Gaga IS Amused By Weird Al Yankovic’s ‘Born This Way’ Parody!

Remember when Weird Al reported that after a long struggle involving the jumping through of many hoops (some of which may have been on fire), his parody of Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way” was rejected by Gaga herself? Remember how sad he was that he would be unable to put the song on his next album? Well, not only was Lady Gaga unaware that she had rejected the song, but perhaps more importantly, she had never even heard it due to the fact that her manager never actually sent it to her in the first place. That’s right: Her manager rejected it FOR her. WITHOUT HER KNOWLEDGE.

I don’t know about you, but if I were Lady Gaga, I’d be PISSED.

Gaga has since heard the song, and guess what? She loves it! As well she should! AND Weird Al gets to put it on his album now! Everybody wins! This makes me feel a lot better about the whole thing; I was rather disappointed when I’d heard that Gaga had supposedly rejected it, because I mean, come on. Being parodied by Weird Al is a badge of honor. Good to know that she’s down with it. Check out Weird Al’s take on it over at his blog. And in case you want to hear the song again, take a listen to it here. Hopefully we’ll be getting that full, crazy video Weird Al originally wanted to do soon!
