Lady Gaga

Lady Gaga would have loved to have been a hippie in the 1960s - so she could have been a groupie chasing after Joh Lennon.

The 23-year-old singer is convinced she was born in the wrong era, insisting she would have fit right in when The Beatles were at the height of their fame.

I'm quite sure that if it were 1968 I may not be the Lady GaGa that I am today

And she would have wasted no time in going after Lennon - even if it meant fighting off his partner Yoko Ono.

She says, "I'm quite sure that if it were 1968 I may not be the Lady GaGa that I am today.

"I might be arguing with Yoko Ono and trying to win John Lennon's heart and chasing The Beatles in a bus on LSD, hoping that one of them hands me a microphone one day."

Meanwhile in other John Lennon related news a film about the early life of Beatles legend John Lennon has been thrown into jeopardy - the star's sister is facing legal action over the book on which the movie is based.

Lennon's sister Julia Baird collaborated with Geoffrey Giuliano on John Lennon, My Brother, which was published in the late 1980s.

Baird went on to pen her own book, 2007's Imagine This: Growing Up With My Brother John Lennon.

But Giuliano has accused Baird of basing her biography on his previous research into Lennon's life.

And now he is set to launch a legal battle over new movie Nowhere Boy - which is based on Baird's book - claiming he is entitled to 50 per cent of her earnings from the picture.

He says, "In doing my own research, I filled in a lot of blanks for her. More than half the material in the book is a result of my research.

"Additional information in Imagine This was uncovered by me in my original research. I was the person who conceptualised the original book."

The movie will star Kristin Scott Thomas and Anne-Marie Duff and is set for release in 2010.
