Shows you the other side of the coin methinks.

I think with any two popstars who dress outlandishly in many different outfits, it's inevitable that they will sometimes wear an outfit similar to one the other has worn before. I'm not a massive fan of lady gaga or anything but I do think she has her own original style. It's the subtle differences in outfits that show they're hers. I thought a lot of Christina's clothes there looked slightly softer and more feminine than Lady Gaga's.

It's Christina's own song Dirrty.

Hmmmm...I don't think GaGa has necessarily outright copied Xtina, but she has definitely "drawn a lot of influence" from her old style. Or perhaps it's even just coincidence!

As for Xtina's new video, I think it's harsh and really petty to, again, say she's outright copying GaGa.

Wacky, controversial and futuristic-y is the style now because it's all about grabbing the attention of the viewers more so than it used to be. And seeing as Xtina has actually always been that way anyways (wacky, controversial and futuristic-y), I don't see how people can say she's copying GaGa. Again, it's probably just coincidence

I think it was about time there was a video highlighting how ahead of the time Xtina was fashion wise...and most of the gaga fans [not including you] seeming to forget how Xtina used to dress during her stripped years. Like OP said, just showing the other side of the coin

When Gaga first came out I thought "here's a rip of what Christina/Xtina used to be" but I think after over a year of hits my older sister puts it best

"you have to love Lady Gaga - she just doesn't give a shit"

I think while Gaga may have drawn early influence from "Xtina" was trying to be, she takes it a few steps further.

I can't see Christina wearing that Kermit the Frog outfit, not in a million years, unless it was just one Kermit covering her privates!

Christina wants to be popular, she wants to be sexy, she wants people to like her personally where as Gaga, while she bullshits on about "art" but I think she just does what ever the fook is weird and wonderful* to her easy to sing-a-long with songs.
How many people even know her real name and how many care??

*whether or not she comes up with these things herself or not is another thing.
