Madonna's music manager brother Chris Ciccone has blasted Lady Gaga's sound-alike new single Born This Way, RadarOnline.com can reveal.

He told RadarOnline.com: "All I can say is 'What the F**K!
"It sounds just like Express Yourself - I can't believe it to tell you the truth."
Ciccone - who mentors new music artists for his management firm The Ciccone Factory - has lost some respect for Lady Gaga who has used Madonna as a role model for her career.
He previously told our website that he could see a lot of similarities between the two artists but felt that Gaga's strong image was in danger of alienating her fans.
But the copy-cat new single Born This Way has left him scratching his head in disbelief.
