April 30, 201015 yr If we must compare then I can tell you even at this stage with some certainty that Bionic will be a better album than Circus by some distance, that Christina is much sexier than Britney as it stands by some distance, and that Christina has an awful lot more life behind the eyes than Britney. By some distance. I definitely think this will be the case ('Bionic' will be the better album) and I agree with what you said here completely. I really don't like artist comparisons but surely no-one can deny the many similarities between this video and the Bad Romance video? Especially the outfits and even the 'storyline' partly. I'm still really excited about the album after seeing who she's been working on it with and this is the perfect video for the song, but I still feel a little let down that she (or her management felt they) had to release this 'club banger' as the first single, when this album is supposedly meant to be completely different to anything she's done before.
April 30, 201015 yr Why do you bother pretending to root for her when all you ever do is put her down and drag Britney into your posts? If we must compare then I can tell you even at this stage with some certainty that Bionic will be a better album than Circus by some distance, that Christina is much sexier than Britney as it stands by some distance, and that Christina has an awful lot more life behind the eyes than Britney. By some distance. Because everything she has done since B2B has sucked ass (besides Genie 2.0 which was and still is amazing)? So I'm not going to praise her if I don't like what she is putting out, and I didn't bring up Britney I just posted a gif, OH NOES, God forbid I add to the conversation outside of the Britney forum if it involves her. That's equivalent to someone praising Kylie Minogue in the Britney forum and Aly getting involved in the conversation, so what's the problem? And the fact I posted her Billboard positions in the NMT official thread... is it considered me putting her down because it's flopping and I want her to do more promo? Jeez. Not to mention this video DOES rip off Madonna's 'Express Yourself' she threw the liquid over her back etc. plus she also had a monucule and copied the set design from Express Yourself. There is channeling and then there is straight up jacking someone elses work. And imitating work isn't always a bad thing when it is carried out well, this video is not carried out well.
April 30, 201015 yr I agree with others. She's trying to hard regain to be sexy when she already is and just comes off like carbon copy of Gaga. :( I still love you X-Tina. :wub: Also, the highlight of the video was the girl-on-girl action. :kink: HOT! HOT! HOT!
April 30, 201015 yr Author "And if you dont like it f*** YOU!" Seriously guys stop with the comparing Madonna, Britney, GaGa! She's been about 10 years..
April 30, 201015 yr Houston Chronicle on Gaga comparisons: "Get over it!" Quote: Christina Aguilera wants to be Lady Gaga. I mean, isn't it obvious? Perez Hilton says so! EW.com says so! Even Akon says so. I MEAN, THE ENTIRE BLOGOSPHERE SAYS SO. Get over it. If Aguilera is channeling anyone in her new video for Not Myself Tonight, it's the original pop provocateur -- Madonna. Take a look at XTina's steamy new video (see clips below) -- complete with aggressive sexuality and F-bombs. It's equal parts Human Nature, Express Yourself and Justify My Love. The whole dominatrix-kewpie-doll thing? The girl-on-girl action? The red lips and platinum hair? Sorry, little monsters. Madonna was doing it years ago. Gaga -- minus the eye zippers and face wreaths and bug eyes and honey buns -- makes pretty standard dance music. She's yet to release anything that truly merits a slot in the canon of iconic pop songs. In my 2008 review of The Fame, it was apparent to me she was swiping from Madonna, Gwen Stefani and, yes, Aguilera. Many of Gaga's vocal inflections and choices are pure XTina -- minus the power and range. In that category, there's simply no contest. Maybe Aguilera is staying true to the title of her tune. Whatever the case, Gaga fans will likely continue to go, well, gaga. To which I say, JUST DANCE. http://blogs.chron.com/peep/2010/04/...ot_hers_1.html
April 30, 201015 yr "And if you dont like it f*** YOU!" Seriously guys stop with the comparing Madonna, Britney, GaGa! She's been about 10 years.. Exactly i dont think she's copying madonna at all its more like she's paying homage to her idol madonna.
April 30, 201015 yr Not to mention talent, by some distance. I do like a lot of the songs Britney is given but she haz zero talent, especially in comparison. And xtina has got the credibility and is taken more seriosuly too.

April 30, 201015 yr Wow, this video is even worst than Keeps Gettin' Better. Seems like X-tina is having a hard time remaining as relevant as the musically and visually superior Gaga's and Beyonce's of this era.

April 30, 201015 yr Imho this is one of the worst things I have ever HEARD in my life! :| This can't seriously be here comeback single. :| The video is pretty poor aswell..
April 30, 201015 yr This isnt the most origial of videos, no, but arent we going just a tad over the top here? It suffers a bit from being too similar to the Bad Romance video in places but everyone and their mother is being accused of ripping GaGa off these days so frankly who cares. It was a good enough video that did the job well enough. Im also not getting why were criticizing Christina for being half-naked in the video and yet were comparing this to GaGa - who as far as I can tell has not been criticized for doing so..... But anyway. Even if no one else is - I remain looking forward to hearing the album. And for future references Christina >>>>> Britney :P Its been like from that since the begining. There were 6 >'s but then Brintey recorded Blackout. (I hate comparign artists but it had to be done, even if this now means Christina has to join Rihanna and PCD on the list of things me and future hubbie Jack wont be agreeing on :( )
April 30, 201015 yr Haha, the thing is I absolutely LOVED Christina in the 'Stripped' era and I still believe pretty much every single/video from that was perfect. 'Back To Basics' was still pretty good too and pretty underrated as a whole. I'm just not a fan of the direction she's going in, it looks very desperate in my eyes and a rip off to what's popular at the moment. This wouldn't be a problem if it wasn't someone as high profile as her but it is and she was usually so innovative and a trendsetter before, I think she definetly could've come back harder with a different genre to her music, rather than what's just in at the moment, I would've respected her more if she did that. I'm still excited to hear the album though and I'm sure alot of the tracks will be better than 'Not Myself Tonight' which is just average really. I just think that currently, Britney does it better and it suits her vocal's better too. Sure you can say Christina has a better voice but I definetly think that Britney has the better material at the moment (although that's only based on her new tracks on GH & NMH compared to two albums worth so we'll see :heehee:). Lol Essay.
May 1, 201015 yr Lady Gaga will never be superior to xtina "NEVER" I like that 'never' is in quotation marks there. Who exactly are you quoting? I mean, a lot of people have uttered the word 'never' so you should be more specific.
May 1, 201015 yr britney's just a puppet .. she gets told what to sing and how to dance she will never be greater then xtina (l) everyones just overreacting here !
May 1, 201015 yr #XtinaIsBack is trending yay, #NotMyselfTonight was also trending yesterday morning.
