Lady Gaga, There's Only Room For One Mermaid In A Wheelchair In Hollywood

Lady Gaga's newest alter ego has emerged from incubation and is already causing trouble. Gaga introduced "Yuyi," a wheelchair-bound goth-mermaid, to her Australian fans last week at a show in Sydney. The Aussie Monsters loved Yuyi, but not everyone was as excited. Not surprisingly, disability advocates everywhere are calling Gaga out for using paralysis for shock-value. But her biggest opponent may surprise you. What on earth could have Bette Midler in such an uproar over Gaga's mermaid get-up?

Well, in 1980, Bette did the exact same routine.
