I loved the performance, I love the new sound too, I'm quite happy with it :wub:

Go Christina :heart:

to those who weren't convinced...Lady gaga on the left, xtina on the right. Gaga must be flattered is all I can say.

 

And to whoever said gaga isnt known over here (The UK). She hasn't even tried the UK market yet which may be why she isn't known!

It would be nice if Xtina got some originality and not almost exactly copy Lady GaGa :mellow: The performance was good but it was just such a rip off :/

She mimed it all which is very dissapointing for someone who's celebrating 10 years in the buisness, she should be setting an example.

The dancing was good but it was no way near the best performance, that title goes to Pink.

That was exactly my point - everyone was reacting like Gaga is a superstar who's style shouldn't be touched by anyone! When, infact, she's barely known.

What has her been barely known, got to do with anything. Copying is copying. Plain and simple. She didnt just touch on her style. It was a carbon copy. If you didnt here the voice, you would have thought it was gaga.

So Gaga didn't rip off Goldfrapp's sound?? You could potentially list about a hundred artists who sounded like Gaga before she came around, just like you can say KGB sounds like a Gaga song. Some people have similar sounds - if this is the sound Christina wants to go with next, deal wiv' it.

 

&& I'd blatez be well flattered if Xtina Aguilera thought my style was worth copying :D

I didnt mention the music. Im talking about the image. I still dont get why her not being around for long has anything to do with it

There's a difference between inspiration and complete copying.

I didnt mention the music.

 

Untruth, no?

excuse me but the only comparessions between goldfrapp's and gaga's music is that they're both generally electronic. thats ALL.

 

Christina entirely ripped off gaga's style

 

deal with it :-)

No not in the context you are referring. What I was stating was that the only way you knew it was christina was becuase of her distinct voice. Everything else was a cardon copy of a lady gaga performance. If I was, lets say, on the phone and had to mute the tv. I would have assumed it was Lady gaga.

 

Im not saying the performance was terrible. I thought it was great. I absolutly love the song too. Just a shame she had to pretty much rip off one of the new up and coming (and quite frankly amazing) new acts.

(and quite frankly amazing)

 

Well at least we agree on one thing :lol:

 

I should reiterate that I think Gaga is pretty great, too - Just Dancer is great, but not a patch on Love Games, and I can't freaking wait for her work with Britney on her new album. However, I don't think she's as unreachable as some people are making her out to be, is all.

What do you mean by unreachable ?

I agree, she should never mime! It doesn't have to be perfect and it's expected that her voice will sound a bit shaky as she is dancing aswell, but her fans will respect her more for singing live! Michael Jackson and Madonna always sang live until late in their career! This is only her fourth record! :) Stop dancing Christina and start singing! hehe

What's with all the negativity guys, I really think this was one of the best performances ever at the VMA's, I really loved it. I don't care if she copied Lady Gaga, all I care about is that the song s & performance were amazing :heart:

 

I love the new version of Genie In A Bottle too :wub:

I thought it sounded like Goldfrapp to begin with, really dissapointed she mimed, and again i thought she looked a bit $h!t, all really dissapointing, even the song just sounds recycled the intro is kinda like Goldfrapp and Britneys Radar, I expected far better from christina :(.

It is only one song on the album though, the other new song could be completly different for all we know

 

I thought she looked really good, sure she looked like she had punched Lady GaGa behind stage and nicked her clothes and wig, but I thought she looked like Catwoman, maybe she's a big Batman fan :lol:

 

Pink did kick her ass though ^_^

Christina did look pretty hot it has to be said. Shame its pretty much copied.

 

Come on, come on and let me outtt "Genie In A Bottle (2008)" needs to leak NOW.
