Enough Already with the Christina/Gaga Comparisons!

In a recent interview, Akon said that Christina Aguilera is mimicking Lady Gaga. Since he opened up that can of worms, people are now LOOKING for similarities between the two artists,  and (of course) the bloggers have jumped all over this.
In all actuality, they are not similar at all. Am I missing something? Did Christina put a telephone on her head? Did Christina wear a red lace outfit with a veil? This is almost laughable. Just because they're blonde, they have sexually driven videos, and they don't wear "everyday clothes", doesn't make them the same artist. If this is the criteria, then I guess every music artist is trying to be like someone else. Christina has done something different with every album. I'm sure that Gaga will do something different with her next album...
We all know that Christina has been getting Dirty for many years. I LOVE Gaga, but she's only been around for a short time. Let's give them both their respect for who they are as individuals.
In short, stop with the comparisons. There's room in the industry for both of them. We should be happy that there's two great talents out there entertaining us.


Gaga is 2006- hmmmm....

Christina in 2006- making her mark
