The Lady GaGa and Christina Aguilera Meltdown

And the Oscar goes to –Lady GaGa and X-Tina, for their ensued catfight that rocked the music industry. Let’s not forget also the bloodthirsty paparazzi and bickering fans whom without their constant critics and wailing, this would not have been possible. Shivers of familiarity trailing down your mind? This is how it is in the entertainment world –a fairyland of daily celebrity meltdowns, exposed secrets and lawsuits.  Lady GaGa and Christina Aguilera (X-Tina) aren’t spared either. During the recent MTV Video Music Awards, many people attacked Christina Aguilera's new, futuristic image with critics because they allege that she’s unashamedly biting off of Lady Gaga's spacey demeanor.

She appeared on stage looking like a clone of Lady GaGa. Christina definitely wasn’t pleased and claimed to reporters that she barely even heard of critic-sworn nemesis…ouch! Aguilera was even clueless if GaGa she was a guy or a girl. Then her latest single “Keeps getting better” came out sounding like an exact replica to Lady GaGa’s music and critics swarmed around her again. It’s undeniable though that both singers possess platinum blond hair and racy outfits.

What is wrong with the world today?  This is POP music so there definitely will be a lot of similarities. Lady GaGa is the latest, hottest musical sensation to hit the industry and hands-down the pop album of the year. Lady GaGa’s unique cat woman-undercover special agent look that she rocks has made her very popular both in the music and fashion world. Her single and huge hit, “Just Dance” is a smash and should be every party girl’s theme song. Now, Christina Aguilera has been in the business for 10 years and was doing really well for awhile with her come-back image inspired by the whole 40s glamour look and sound. She has had many looks ranging from blonde to dreads to black hair. Not to mention those outfits. The former Mousekeeter's influences for her new sound and image -as she stated in a recent interview- are Velvet Underground & Nico, Blondie and Jane Birkin. Nowhere did it state Lady GaGa.

Bleach blonde hair and bangs and Christina is all of a sudden in the business of copying looks? The comparisons exist because of the hair and one single track. People should remember that Lady GaGa did not invent blonde hair and bangs. It’s a hairstyle that has been around for decades. In terms of sound, Lady GaGa’ music is fresh and hyped and is definitely the music of the future. Perhaps that is why X-tina and even Hilary Duff’s latest singles illustrates that sound. That not necessarily mean they are copying Lady GaGa’s music style. Yet paparazzi and fans love to linger on these senseless facts–forgetting completely that both equally contribute to the music world in their own ways. Christina is gorgeous and talented and so is Lady GaGa. Why do we have to put these ladies up against each other instead of respecting both of them? They're both great talents! Besides, blonds are surely entertaining, right?
