Gaga's trainer has now admitted that he never forwarded my sendup to Gaga -- she had no idea at all. Even though we assumed that Gaga herself was the digit making the selection [because, well, that's what we were told,] he apparently prefabricated the selection completely on his own. He's sorry. And Gaga loves the song."

Yankovic went on to say he's pleased to center she's a follower because he admires her impact and didn't poverty to conceive she had "less than a great sense of humor."
