Gaga's New Video is So Madonna 20 Years Ago

I HATE Gaga's video for Alejandro. I think she looks awful and it is the second video this year that looks like blatant doppelganging of images Madonna has already made famous. This, along with Christina's Not Myself Tonight video both could pass as tributes to Madge. I don't know why stupid Perez Hilton and other Gaga-obsessed twinkies are saying X-Tina is always copying Gaga, when it all stems from the true Queen of Pop to begin with. I LOVE Christina's new album (see rave review below) and I do like Gaga (in moderation) when people aren't giving her more credit than she deserves. I think the Lady is a visionary and usually adore her videos, but I think the latest is too dark, ugly and attempting to be controversial with content that was so 20 years ago. I would have more respect for both artists' videos if they admitted that Madonna was the inspiration for half the looks they're displaying.

upon further review: X-Tina did admit to paying homage to Madonna & was inspired by her "Express Yourself" & "Human Nature" videos. I like.
