Lady Gaga & David Archuleta The Famous Duo?

December 18, 2008

If there’s one thing that David Archuleta and Lady Gaga have in common, its fame. Both experienced a landslide of fame and glamor and they own it massively, not to mention, recently as well –GaGa even named her explosive new album title as "Fame".  And it is not ending anytime soon. On the contrary, it is just the beginning for these two pop artists. Archuleta and GaGa are both fresh faces in the music industry and have only very recently hit the charts. But don’t let that fool you, for their music and style are invading and influencing the world at fast speed.

Recently the two most favorite new artists snuggled up at the New York’s 2008 Z100 jingle Ball’s backstage artist lounge at Madison Square Garden. Z100’s Jingle Ball is probably the king of all holiday shows.  Its line-up always features the hottest acts of the year and 2008’s show is no exception. Lady Gaga showed up with an outfit that closely resembles a snowflake while Archuleta sang comfortably in jeans and a brown shirt. When you are performing at one of the holiday season’s hottest concert, you know you’ve struck gold. This was definitely a big deal for the duo as they are on their way in reaching stardom.

David Archuleta became one of the most recognizable figures on television in 2008, when his strong silky tenor vocals and boyish charm helped earn him a second-place finish in American Idol's seventh season. Since then he has been making it big in the music industry, following in the footsteps with of his fellow competitor and winner of American Idol season 7, Jordin Sparks. It seems interesting a musical talent such as his would have duet with the sexy, mind-blowing, electro-pop Lady GaGa. Lady GaGa’s music is worlds apart from David Archuleta’s sound though both sink their teeth deeply in the Pop genre of music. Still both manage to pull of her Christmas hit single “Christmas Tree” -which will definitely be a popular modern-classic holiday song- with ease.  Perhaps that is what it takes to gather more fame. Collaborations and mixed duets with different musical style has always been a success in these present times. Just listen to Kevin Rudolph and Lil Wayne’s “Let it Rock” and you will know what I mean. Or have a go at Kanye West’s “Homecoming” featuring Chris Martin of Coldplay who comes from a whole different music genre than West.

One thing’s for sure is that these two are not going to back down in terms of reaching their goals in conquering the music world. Archuleta is young and so is GaGa and both will be in for much more achievements. Both have worked their way up the ladder of success the tradional way,  that is through hard work and determination and both contribute grandly to the music business. GaGa has already bagged a Grammy nomination, and Archuleta…what can I say, he is a winner already. That’s another thing they have in common. And the list goes on…
