Madonna Dubbed 'Granny Gaga' by France's National Front

Madonna Dubbed 'Granny Gaga' by France's National Front

Madonna can look a little … awkward … trying to keep up with her younger, envelope-shredding peers.

She showed off her underarm hair via social media a few weeks back, and she caught the paparazzi’s eye with her dental grill work.

So being called “Granny Gaga” probably stings a bit.

Madge earned that insult from France’s National Front this week by tarring France’s far-right party after its recent election victory.

Madonna had enraged the FN in 2012 by showing a video depicting its leader Marine Le Pen with a swastika over her forehead at a Paris concert.

She took another swipe at the party on Monday with a post on her Instagram account.

The post featured the front page of French newspaper Liberation from May 26, the day after the FN topped the polls in European elections with a record 25 percent of the vote….

Madonna’s caption read: “Russia. Ukraine. Venezuela …., now France?!!!!! #fight Fascism #fightdiscrimination #fightlynchmobmentality #fighthatred#fightforffreedom #revolutionoflove

FN vice-president Florian Phillipot responded with a sarcastic suggestion Madonna was seeking controversy to court publicity at a time when her career has been eclipsed by the global stardom of younger rival Lady Gaga.

“In politics too, Granny Gaga has lost the plot,” Philippot tweeted.
