Heidi Montag and Lady Gaga

Heidi Montag has accused Lady Gaga of sabotaging her music career.

The two stars both worked with music producer RedOne โ€“ real name Nadir Khayat โ€“ during their early years in the music industry.

On a recent episode of the Unpopular with Jacques Peterson podcast, reality TV star Montag opened up about a 2009 feud over Gagaโ€™s song โ€œFashion.โ€

Montag explained that Khayat was going to have her record โ€œFashion,โ€ originally written by Gaga, as long as she approved it.

According to Montag, Gaga consented, saying: โ€œGreat, sure, she can have that song.โ€

โ€œSo then I recorded it and it was my song,โ€ said Montag. โ€œThat was the impression I was under.โ€

However, Montag stated that Gaga backtracked and released her own version of the song after producers showed interest in featuring the track in the 2009 film Confessions of a Shopaholic.

โ€œโ€˜No, Iโ€™m pulling that song, and Iโ€™m recording it. Itโ€™s not Heidiโ€™s anymore,โ€™โ€ Montag claimed the Shallow actor said.

โ€œPeople are, like, โ€˜I love Lady Gaga,โ€™ and Iโ€™m sure sheโ€™s great, but I have not had the best encounter with her,โ€ she added.

Montag further believes that Gaga saw her as a threat. โ€œShe did not want me working with RedOne and she told RedOne she wouldnโ€™t work with him anymore if I kept working with him,โ€ she said.

Over the years, Gaga and Khayat have produced several hits together including โ€œBad Romance,โ€ โ€œJust Dance,โ€ Judas,โ€ and โ€œAlejandro.โ€
