I feel like many people like to say that Gaga is a copy of Madonna because they obviously ignore most of Gaga's career.
And Madonna already expressed how similar the songs were in an interview to promote her new album, there was no need to perform it on her new tour.

Gaga is the one causing the comparations by making herself comparable. Alejandro is clearly inspired by Madonna, and I see no problem on that, is a very good video. Them she released Born This Way and it really sounded like Express Yourself, put some Michael and Madonna references on the video, used Madonna inspired outfits here and there, etc, etc.
Does the whole album sounds like a Madonna album? Nops. But them, during all the fuzz about her copying Madonna, she releases a single with a video whose theme is strongly linked to her on pop music, and the fuzz continued, and them she edited her concert on the same way Madonna did with her most icone movie, etc. The progression of her actions from Alejandro to the release of Monster Ball Tour where heavily inspired on the same artist people were accusing her of copying. From Edge of Glory onwards she finally stoped, but now Madonna is the one bringing this up... And... Well, I can't blame Madonna for doing that.... I would be pissed too
