Lady GaGa: “Christina Aguilera Style Stealing Boosted My Fame”
Well what do ya know, Lady GaGa has admitted that her burgeoning career got a big boost when Christina Aguilera was accused of stealing her look earlier this year.
The multiplatinum-selling singer performed at the MTV Video Music Awards in September wearing platinum blonde hair extensions, a black catsuit, and a mask, leading many critics to claim she was swagger jacking Lady GaGa’s signature.
“Well, it was very flattering when it happened. She’s such a huge star and if anything I should send her flowers, because a lot of people in America didn’t know who I was until that whole thing happened.
“It really put me on the map in a way, though of course I don’t just want to be remembered for the Christina Aguilera scandal.”
“There are no hard feelings with Christina at all,” Lady says. “What it showed me was, even though I’ve only been on the commercial market for seven or eight months, I’ve really burned graphic images of my visuals onto the irises of my fans.”
“They saw a huge, Grammy-winning star who’s been around for years and they recognized Lady GaGa. That to me is quite an accomplishment.”

oh shut the f’up GaGa.
I like you but for people 2 think Christina stole her look is retarded. Why and how could Christina know about a club singer from the New York when Chrissy is in Cali?? If you guys didn’t know GaGa didn’t always look like that she had brown hair & was compared to Amy Winehouse so who REALLY is the jocker here?

gaga has been ripping off everyone’s styles since she’s been in the mainstream. Like miss mosh. Not only did she copy her blonde and purple hair but also her ballerina boots and vinyl clothing. And excuse me, but mosh has been working that style even before gaga hit the mainstream.

She totally has ripped off so many people. She said it herself in an early interview that she ’synthesizes and edits’. Then she says that she believes in artistic karma or something like this. I like her music. Just not HER. I think she is a rich, snobby girl who pretends to be cool to become famous. I think she is full of shit and a big liar. Besides Miss Mosh which I just learned about I’ve seen a bunch of other stuff like Roisin Murphy, Peaches, Chiki, and I’m sure many more unknowns we don’t know about. Her marketing team took these people’s creativity and summed it up into being commercial. She is a liar and she admits it.

Funny… I think it is the other way around it! I’ve seen people comparing Gaga to Madonna (huh??? nobody compares to the big queen) or Britney… but the first time I heard of her and googled to find a picture, I just could not avoid the comparison with Christina (Dirrty time).
