While Lady Gaga has been tabbed a “reductive” copycat of Madonna by the 80s-90s icon herself, we’re shining a bright light on the antics of one Miley Cyrus, and how original her act is, when compared to Madge.

… just as Miley put her own twist on in the Terry Richardson-directed “Wrecking Ball” video that was a smash last year.
Madonna

Madonna’s been sexing things up with booty-related antics for years, raising serious eyebrows with her racy Oct. 1992 tome, “Sex” — the month before Miley was born!
Miley Cyrus

Despite that, the media couldn’t stop squawking about the sexy schtick Miley brought to her winter tour, bumping and grinding on Santa.
Madonna

The crotch grab? Been there, done that, Madonna has, like in this shot from her 1990 Blond Ambition tour.

Miley pulls a similar move during a 2013 concert. Oh Hannah, what happened?

The “We Can’t Stop” was seen in a similar light in her clip for “Adore You” last year.
Madonna

Scampering around with her male dancers? Madonna did that on the ’90 circuit …
Miley Cyrus

… as did Cyrus on her Bangerz tour, albeit with an inordinately large bed.
Madonna

Madonna, seen here on her Sticky & Sweet Tour six years ago, wasn’t too prudish to tease her fans with a parting of the gams.
Miley Cyrus

And Miley was quick to copy — make that pay homage to — incorporating the provocative pose into her stage show.
