Lady Gaga. (REUTERS) LOS ANGELES -- Lady Gaga may have her millions of adoring fans, but according to toy manufacturer MGA Entertainment, the Bad Romance singer is no doll. MGA has filed a $10 million lawsuit against Gaga (real name: Stefani Germanotta) in Manhattan Supreme Court, claiming that last-minute changes to a Lady Gaga doll requested by the singer and her team have imperiled the possibility that the doll will be in stores in time for Christmas, the New York Daily News reported. MGA, which said it advanced Gagas licensing company Bravado International Group $1 million for the rights to the doll, claims that the singer is deliberately stalling the release of the doll so it will coincide with the releases of the singers new album and perfume next year. According to the suit, the company sent the singer a prototype of the doll in March, and she was blown away by the doll, with the exception of a few tweaks she requested. Those few tweaks developed into a prolonged process that is

Isaac Larian, who founded MGA Entertainment, the company responsible for the hyper-sexy Bratz dolls, knows a thing or two about marketing and controversy and image-making. So does pop music star Lady Gaga. A line of Bratz dolls in her image must have seemed so promising. Instead, the dolls are in limbo and the once-happy relationship has turned adversarial. MGA is suing Lady Gaga and her representatives for more than $10 million for failing to approve the dolls it had designed for release this summer. Representatives for Lady Gaga and her merchandising company, Bravado (a division of Vivendi SAs ( VIVHY ) Universal Music Group) call the lawsuit ill-conceived and meritless. Lady Gaga is confident she will prevail, her publicist, Amanda Silverman, wrote in an email. Oliver Herzfeld, the chief legal officer at Beanstalk, a firm that brokers these types of deals, says that such public disputes are rare. He also says that Lady Gagas contract should have given her almost all the power. Its

The Bad Romance hitmaker and her management and licensing companies are being sued for 6.4 million by executives at MGA Entertainment for an alleged breach of contract, according to the New York Daily News. It is claimed Gaga requested the removal of a voice sound chip from the doll which put the company under pressure to meet their deadline for retailers. Company bosses had hoped to ship the figure to shops in time for Christmas (12) but they allege the singer and her team "engaged in intentional and deliberate delays" to stop the toy reaching shelves until 2013, so it coincides with the release of her new album and perfume. Chiefs at MGA Entertainment paid Gaga's licensing company Bravado International Group a 645,000 advance but they are now petitioning to release the doll as soon as possible. A spokesman for the pop star tells the New York Daily News, "Lady Gaga will vigorously defend MGA's ill-conceived lawsuit and is confident that she will prevail... There

People News Jul 25, 2012, 8:01 GMT Lady Gaga Lady Gaga is being sued for $10 million by a toy manufacturer. The 'Judas' hitmaker and her management have been accused by MGA Entertainment of requesting a voice chip be removed from a doll made in her likeness, meaning its planned Christmas 2012 delivery time will be unable to be met. The company claims Lady Gaga acted in bad faith as she wants to put the release of the doll on hold until her new album and perfume come out in 2013. According to the New York Daily News newspaper, MGA said those around her had 'engaged in intentional and deliberate delays' to the doll - which Gaga reportedly wanted to have a removable head which revealed a bloody stump and a 'supermodel' like face with a 'sharp jaw-line' and 'cat-eyes'. However, her spokesperson Amanda Silverman has claimed she will 'prevail' over the court case. She said: 'Lady Gaga will vigorously defend MGA's ill-conceived lawsuit a

WENN Lady Gaga has hit the headlines once again, and this time the superstar is being accused of 'influencing young fans to turn gay' after announcing a new partnership with a leading US gay rights campaign group. Uh-ohh! Gaga's 'Born This Way Foundation' recently teamed with Office Depot in a bid to create a 'braver, kinder school year' with the added help of the 'Bad Romance' singer herself.

Madonna's teenage daughter is reportedly begging her to end her feud with Lady Gaga. The iconic singer has previously made veiled comments about Gaga, 26, being inspired by her hits. She even performs a mash-up of two of their songs during her current tour, which is said to have irritated Gaga. Madonna's teenage daughter Lourdes apparently hates the animosity between the two. "It embarrassed her hugely that her mother constantly picks on Gaga. Lourdes, who is wise beyond her years, knows Madonna's doing herself more harm than good - and that she'd be better off locking arms than horns with her rival," a source told National Enquirer. Much has been made of Lourdes' apparent similarity to Gaga, with some saying they look like they could be related. Although her 53-year-old mother isn't too keen on the comparison, Lourdes loves it.
