Is tension brewing between Lady Gaga and Jerry Seinfeld?

Earlier this month, a scantily-clad Gaga greeted photographers at the New York Mets game with her middle finger and wound up moved to Seinfeld’s empty luxury suite. At the time, the comedian’s spokesperson joked to Gossip Cop, “The Seinfelds take an optimistic view of Lady Gaga’s gesture as a sign that he wants the Mets to be in first place as badly as they do.”

But a recent interview with sports radio station WFAN leads some (including Perez Hilton) to report that Seinfeld is legitimately angry with Gaga.

“This woman is a jerk. I hate her,” said Seinfeld. “I can’t believe they put her in my box, which I paid for.”

The sitcom legend expressed shock at Gaga’s behavior and consequences. “You give people the finger and you get upgraded?” he asked. “Is that the world we’re living in now?”

But is Seinfeld really ticked off at the performer? To Gossip Cop, it sounds like Seinfeld’s tone is mostly joking, and a Seinfeld insider seems to agree.

Take a listen and let us know what you think. The discussion of Gaga begins roughly 3/4 of the way in:
