"Jake Shears has stated that he is &amp;quot;satisfied&amp;quot; with Lady GaGa&amp;#039;s rise to fame.  The Scissor Sistsers frontman reiterated his pride at having inspired the &amp;#039;Judas&amp;#039; singer early in her career, adding that he is overcome with excitement when watching her perform.  Shears told Seven Days Magazine: &amp;quot;She is such a kindred spirit, of course. She has been so much fun. It&amp;#039;s really exciting to watch her rise to fame. It has been very satisfying. In a way, I feel like a proud papa.  &amp;quot;She came to our shows when she was growing up and she is a big fan. If we are an influence, that&amp;#039;s super exciting. It&amp;#039;s why we do what we do.&amp;quot; The Scissor Sisters recently supported GaGa on the February and March dates of her Monster Ball Tour.   &amp;gt; Lady GaGa: &amp;#039;People are trying to destroy me&amp;#039; Listen to Lady GaGa&amp;#039;s latest single &amp;#039;Judas&amp;#039; below.
