Madonna + Lady Gaga = Magaga? (Video)

Wait. Is Lady Gaga wearing PANTS?

Madge - "Express Yourself"!

A YouTube video is floating around that is pretty interesting. We have all noticed the similarities of Gaga's Alejandro video and well, most of Madonna's videos all rolled into one.  I have to admit that I'm more irritated with Christina Aguilera copying paying homage to Madge than I am with Gaga.  Perhaps it's because Christina has the VOICE and really doesn't need to rely on being so sexual and controversial--AND she didn't start out in a "performance artist" manner.  It just doesn't seem natural for Christina--her Not Myself Tonight video simply felt calculated, and not in a good way.

ANYBlondeDiva, watch this video...

Let's not forget a certain video from 1989 --  Rhythm Nation.  I think Miss Jackson should be included in some of this conversation.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1...

And you know what else?  I don't really think Alejandro was all that awesome of a video (aside from the sacred heart image, which I loved).  I wish Gaga and director Steven Klein had worked on Teeth instead.  On the screen inside my own brain, I am visualizing a very sinister Deep South storyline...a big, dusty tent church revival.  A crazy choir.  Money being thrown into the collection baskets.  Faith healing.   I don't know, I really think that song has a lot more to offer visually.  AND I want Trent Reznor to produce a remix.  Like NOW.

Bottom line, I'm disappointed in the Alejandro video; Bad Romance and Telephone were a lot to live up to--I think Lady Gaga really needs to show us her Teeth.

Oh, and of course.  I'm seeing Lady Gaga in August.  Are you?

  1. I think Alejandro is the last single she’s going to be releasing for now. Everyone kept saying Christina was ripping off Gaga w/ Not Myself Tonight, even though it was obviously a mashup of Madonna’s Human Nature and Express Yourself. I also saw a little bit of Beyonce’s Green Light.

    Madonna isn’t really the originator, but every is biting her style these days.

  2. haha that is perfect! Gaga is a big copycat. Shes Gaga not Madonna she needs to start branching away a bit.
