John Lydon has told NME that he thinks Taylor Swift is “incredibly dull” and he “doesn’t like Lady Gaga as a human being”.The former Sex Pistols frontman and founder of Public Image Ltd.

was speaking as part of this week’s edition of Does Rock N Roll Kill Braincells?!, in which he reflected on his time in the music industry and his most memorable moments.He responded to a question about whether he keeps up with contemporary punk bands like IDLES, Fontaines D.C.

or Bob Vylan, to which he said there is “not much point”, adding “I’m not responsible for having to check them all out”.That prompted a further question about his previous championing of Lady Gaga, to which he said: “Lady Gaga was a massively layered and textured presentation – very Bowie era and pop music at its finest.

But what she’s turned into is Bizarro World. She’s acting in films, and I don’t like her as a human being. I don’t think she projects anything healthy.
