Decent but is it a hommage to Madonna or a direct rip off?

It does look like she is paying hommage to Madonna. Several Madonna videos are all shadowed here.

This is the Christina I have always preferred. Had she not taken that break to do the soul album and continued down the same route as ''Stripped'' no one would have been able to make the Gaga comparisons. It makes me sad to see so many claiming Christina has copied her when this IS Xtina. She didn't get given the X for nothing.

Perez Hilton is trying to kick up a huge storm. But what I don't get is that if he wants everyone to think Christina copied Lady Gaga is he now admitting that Lady Gaga has copied Madonna? if so why is it ok for Gaga to do it but not Christina?

It is way more Madonna than Lady Gaga so why people are insisting she has copied Lady Gaga while making out Lady Gaga hasn't copied Madonna I don't know.

As for the video. Love it! I agree with Pop Art. She should never have done the Back To Basics album so soon. She should have gone straight into this sound after Stripped. People seem to have forgotten Christina did all this before.

I think the main problem with Christina fans is that they bring up Gaga ASAP...

I think the video is more Madonna tbh, but I can see some small Gaga-esk parts, but that's because they're both experimental etc...

I have to admit, from what i've seen Christina fans do seem to mention Gaga alot first, as if they are very protective of her having 'that name' aimed at Christina. Tbh, it's a great video but it does remind me of 3 people:

Madonna
Gaga
Gwen Stefani.

Well you are one of these Gaga Die hards who would say Christina copied. You keep saying your a fan and all this shit but you obviously aren't because this is like the seventh time you have drawn parrells between Christina and Gaga.

Any tool can see the video is a clear hommage to Madonna. The OP is spot on. Gwen stole Madonna's look anyway and Gaga copies everyone but because its Gaga no one gives a shit but hell if anyone else does it a shit storm starts.

Just because I critisize Christina doesn't mean I don't like her. I'm a fan of Gaga but I don't go around claiming she's the best thing ever or I love every outfit and every song. I think fans seem to get this thing of having to like every movement the artist makes.

All fans get defensive but the hate Christina is getting on blogs is out of line, imho. She **has never** really been much different. She got the X in Tina (X Rated) for a reason. People have very short memories. But now it seems Christina has copied or ripped off everyone over the smallest of things. Its like, ''OMG she wore red what a Gaga clone'' and so on. Red lipstick for a start has always been Christina's treadmark. So little things like this ARE pissing me right off.

But I fail to see the Gwen comparison mind you. Other than blonde hair there is nothing to compare to.

just watched it. it is defo has to be a madonna tribute. the videos for erotica, human nature and express yourself are all covered in it.

i hope she comes out and confirms this, then those who are saying its a gaga rip off will have to admit that gaga has indeed copied madonna. that should end it once and for all

Oh my god! I didn't think it was coming until 5pm tonight?!

I love it! and I agree. Its a Madonna homage/tribute. It has to be. The scenes from Express Yourself are too obvious for it not to be. Which will be funny when Christina admits this, those such as fat head Perez are going to look rather foolish for saying its a Lady Gaga copy as it will admit Lady G has infact copied Madonna!

Has Christina been a bitch and played it this way on purpose do you think. lol

For the record though I really am a fan of Lady Gaga and Christina. Both are very different artists but quite similar. Its sort of like Kylie and Madonna. There are parrells but they are different people.

Hmm maybe you are right here. Perhaps she is going to draw people to the fact Madonna did it all first. Therefore those after her, copied her.

It would lay the comparisons to rest once and for all.

I don't know how anyone dare in all honesty say she has ripped off Lady Gaga here. Unless you have never seen the Madonna Express Yourself and Human Nature videos you have no excuse to not realise it is a tribute.

But I'm fed up of Christina being compared to Gaga now. Want it to end. Lets just talk XTina!

People need to get oer these Gaga comparisons... Christina has been around for 11 years, she does need to copy someone who has been around for two minutes.

I can agree with the Madonna influence, but there is nothing GAGA about this video.

The song and the video are both a bit rubbish in my opinion, I much prefer Christina singing a song which has some semblance of a decent tune.

The Gaga comparisons are only here because they are dominating the US.

I love this reaction!

Because they both rip off Madonna.

I love how people mention GaGa along with Madonna as if she's not just as guilty.

Its like when people were saying Alexandra Burke was ripping off Leona Lewis, as if Leona was doing anything different to Whitney and Mariah.

But tbh, Christina could have done anything and it would have been 'like GaGa' because she's blonde and has breasts.

I think the vital difference between Christina and GaGa is that GaGa wears this stuff to look odd ,Christina wears it to look sexy. GaGa wouldn't touch dominatrix imo.

This all said, the Britney/Christina comparisons were worse than this imo, so I'm not bothered.

Madonna was actually furious with Gwen wasn't she? I recall her saying on record that Gwen had ripped her off and she wasn't happy!

Madonna said she liked Britney and Christina. She did that Like A Virgin performance with them but I would love to know her honest opinion on Lady Gaga. I guess Madonna is slightly upset that she is getting older and her work is being shadowed by younger stars.

The best thing I ever saw on youtube, was someone claiming that Madonna had ripped off Gwen

Just... I despair, lol. I imagine she's a GaGa fan though.

I love how its a homage to Madonna and its self-referential (lingerie = genie in a bottle, rain = i turn to you, big hair = lady marmalade etc.etc.)

I've heard it being played in clubs. A few days after it came out they played it back to back in a club I was in. I just don't understand why its not getting played on radio Maybe now the vids out. I hope.

I love the video, its in my top 3 for Christina's videos but the video's amazing up until the last 40/50 seconds and then it just like..looses all its energy. Up until she burns her wardrobe and takes a picture of it i LOVE the video but after that it just gets a bit boring. Which is annoying because that last bit is actually my favourite bit in the song. When she walks down the church with the girls I get really excited...then nothing happens.
