Arctic Monkeys' Alex Turner: Lady Gaga Is Not My Cup Of Tea

The Arctic Monkeys have admitted that they are fans of pop music but not of Lady Gaga.

The Sheffield band, who will headline this weekend's V festival, said that they are fans of Kylie Minogue.

Speaking to Shortlist, drummer Matt Helders said: "Kylie Minogue. Particularly 'Get Outta My Way'. I really like that song."

Frontman Alex Turner added: "Yeah, that's the thing when you talk about pop music dominating. It's not like it's all s*it and we're dead against it. That's not the case at all, because there are some great pop songs."

Turner also said he was not a fan of Gaga, after being previously quoted that he was: ''I don't know if I did that - it may have been a bit twisted. Some of it is nonsense, but it's not like we're completely trying to destroy it.''

"And if we do V Festival we can get right into the nucleus. But no, Lady GaGa - it's not my cup of tea, that."

V Festival takes place over the weekend of August 20-21. For more information about V Festival and all this summer's festivals, check out the Gigwise Festival Guide.
