Lady Gaga Channels Stevie Nicks for PORTER Magazine Spread

Remember when we said Lady Gaga might be running out of ideas? Well, Mother Monster just yanked one straight out of 1970. Gaga, who hung out with Stevie Nicks during the Vanity Fair Oscar Party last month, seems to have taken a page out of the legendary rocker's style book and we don't hate it, but seriously- this new PORTER spread is giving us some serious deja vu.

The photos are enough in and of themselves, but the video that accompanies them is even more Stevie-esque and it's kind of tripping us out (no pun intended).

First, there is the haircut. The blonde shag with bangs is SO Stevie. Then, when she sits down to sing while she plays the piano, the nostalgia is almost too much to take.

We want 1970s Stevie back, not 2014 Gaga trying to be 1970s Stevie. If Gaga has someone barf on her while she's in the Stevie getup, we will throw a serious b**ch fit.

Anyway, moving on...the wardrobe choice. Another signature Stevie move. The long, flowing gypsy-like garb. That's got the Fleetwood Mac front woman written all over it. Also, the candles and the whole witchy kind of thing?

Yep, Stevie is the one who made that cool before any of us were even born. Before Stevie made it cool to be weird, it was just plain weird.
Of course, this isn't the first time Gaga has reminded us of other famous people. Over the past couple of years, she's looked like Beyonce, Nicole Richie, Christina Aguilera, Madonna and a whole bunch of other celebs. See them all here.

Sure, imitation is the highest form of flattery, but if you're going to try to follow in Stevie's footsteps, you've got some pretty big shoes to fill...and no, we don't mean just wearing the most gigantic pair of platforms you can get your hands on.

[Snippet from Artists Direct]

Lady Gaga covers the second issue of Porter magazine, looking like a young and sexy Stevie Nicks, and going without makeup or big, insane-looking wigs. She also participated in an intimate interview as part of the cover shoot, talking about art and sexuality, and how she is not super sexual in her music. It's riveting stuff, so watch the clip and absorb her explanation.

Ha, those are fun pics.

I don't think it's fair to accuse Gaga of 'running out of ideas'. I used to have a real problem with her very real ripoff of Madonna but I just don't care anymore. Gaga has made it clear that she studies what famous people have done to become famous, and then replicates it. That's her schtick, and I don't see a problem with it especially when she admits it freely.

I'm a big fan of her songwriting and her singing, and that's what it's all about - the rest is flattery and imagery. If she wants to 'channel' Stevie, then girl, channel Stevie. Lord knows how many fans do it when they go to concerts.
