Do you remember how Christina Aguilera is a drunken, delusional, lie-filled monster? She is. She also has some kind of sand in her biscuit about Lady Gaga. Over the years, Christina has gone on the record in interviews mocking and belittling Gaga (“I don’t know if it is a man or a woman”) and then turned around and copied Gaga’s current M.O. In Christina’s recent W Magazine, the writer summed it up well:

While Aguilera once owned the little-girl-with-the-big-voice pop-star niche, with Bionic, she willfully entered the land of Lady Gaga. In the press, she pretended not to care or notice. “Oh, the newcomer?” Aguilera told reporters when asked about Gaga. “This person was just brought to my attention not too long ago. I’m not quite sure who this person is, to be honest. I don’t know if it is a man or a woman.” Despite her feeble claims to confusion over Gaga’s gender and her uncharitable reluctance to give her credit, the video for “Not Myself Tonight,” Bionic’s first single, had eerily similar tableaux to Gaga’s smash video “Bad Romance.” Image for S&M image, they matched up. Old fans of Aguilera’s weren’t intrigued by her revamped identity, and new fans didn’t materialize. As the album sputtered, her 20-city summer tour didn’t sell and was canceled, at a cost of millions. There were rumors that her record company wanted to drop her. Things were not good.

CB reported that Christina even used her position on The Voice to slam Gaga, allegedly telling contestants that she (Christina) was bigger than Gaga, more influential, etc. So this new story – also from the Enquirer – is nothing new, and I believe it entirely:

Christina Aguilera blames Gaga for stealing both her style and her fans, sources say, and Christina is determined to outshine her. Now that she’s wrapped the first season of The Voice, “she now plans to write and record two albums’ worth of material that she can promote when the show returns in early 2012,” a source divulged. “She’s determined to make them better than Gaga’s albums.”

“Christina loves being on top, and in her mind, it’s Gaga’s fault that she’s no longer there,” explained an insider. “She feels that Gaga has stolen her young fan base and has also outdone Christina with her outrageous outfits and stage shows. Christina plans to show Gaga up by creating two new albums that will put her back on top of the charts.”

I could see how Christina would fall into that trap. In her defense, she’s probably too drunk to see the trap. The trap is that Christina is trying to out-do the Lady Gaga of today, and by the time Christina’s album comes out next year, Gaga will be doing something else and everyone will listen to Christina’s album and say, “Hey, that looks and sounds like Gaga… from a year ago.” As for Gaga “stealing” Christina’s fan base… idiotic. If Christina wasn’t such a liquor-soaked, unoriginal catastrophe, there would be plenty of room for both her and Gaga (who is a coked-up, unoriginal catastrophe). Christina just has a “thing” about copying whoever is popular at the moment – first it was Britney, and now it’s Gaga. It’s a shame because Christina does have a powerful voice. She just needs some good songwriters, and she needs to stop with the Gaga crap. Most of us don’t even like the Gaga crap anymore, anyway.
