Lady Gaga Trashed by Christina Aguilera on 'The Voice'

Christina Aguilera is no Lady Gaga fan. The Born This Way exhibitionist has been savagely dissed by the Burlesque star before. In 2008, Aguilera bashed the Judas singer by claiming that she couldn't tell if the Lady "was a man or a woman." Now, she's verbally K.O.'ed the meat wearer once again

Apparently, during a recent taping of The Voice, Christina started venting about how she's more talented and entertaining than Lady Gaga.

"Christina told a contestant she was ten times better than Gaga," claimed an inside source, "[She also] said her rival was annoying – and expressed her amazement that Gaga ever got famous. It caused quite a scene, and producers insisted on reshooting the segment."

Christina Aguilera has a point. Or two. The Egg Lady will never in her wildest dreams possess Aguilera's set of pipes. And she is one of the most annoying people on the planet--not to mention one of the most pretentious. Nevertheless, Aguilera's fellow cast and crew members onThe Voice seemed to take Gaga's side, claiming that the former Disney kid dissed the Born This Way singer out of sheer meanness.

"She's bitter person with an ax to grind about everything," said another inside source describing Aguilera. "She's like a bitter old woman trapped in a 30-year-old's body!"

Meow! Sounds like Lady Gaga is the least of Christina Aguilera's problems. She seems to have more than enough enemies on the set of her own T.V. show.

Stay tuned.

Lady Gaga Slams Arizona, Says Enough Is Enough!

Immigration law in Arizona upsets Lady Gaga, and she believes SB 1070 is unjust. International immigration law is not as harsh as policies AZ adopts, and Mother Monster's love for Mexico has her livid about the law.
She was so angry with the harsh and biased immigration law the state of Arizona adopted, she wrote lyrics in a song about it.
The "Born This Way" pop star's song, "Americano" is inspired by Lady Gaga's dismay of how immigrants who come into the country legally are treated in Arizona.
The song also gives a voice to LGBT advocacy groups, gays, and anyone disenfranchised in the United States. Here's a sampling of the "Americano" lyrics:
"Don't you try to catch me/Don't you try to catch me/No, no, no, no/Don't you try to catch me/I'm living on the edge of the law, law, law, law."
On the one hand, it is great that Lady Gaga is using her celebrity to highlight issues that unfairly target a group of people because they are "different."
Hopefully, if she means well, the message about Senate Bill 1070 gets another look by the embattled Arizona legislature.
On the other hand, some people are reticent about getting behind Lady Gaga in this controversial issue. Their decision in treading cautiously is based on the fact that Mother Monster is a--celebrity, and that alone raises red flags.
Too often times, celebrities like Gaga use a public and emotional platform to bolster their record sales. Hopefully, she is on the level and the SB 1070 immigration law fades to black.

Lady GaGa "delusional" about her success

Lady GaGa has said that she often feels "delusional" about the success of her pop career, and has claimed that she still feels like an outsider in the music industry.

The 'Born This Way' singer made the comments while discussing the controversial video for her new single 'Judas', which premiered on Thursday.

"In a lot of ways I'm really delusional about my success, and sometimes I feel like an underdog in so many ways," GaGa admitted to E! News recently.

The popstar explained that her hectic work schedule is a result of an irrational fear of dying at a young age before she has peaked.

"My biggest fear is that I'll die before I get all my ideas out," the singer continued. "I have nightmares about it."

GaGa also said that although her music career is the most important thing in her life at the minute, her priorities may well change in the future.

"Maybe with a f**king rock on my finger and a baby, I don't know," she added, when asked where she saw herself in ten years' time. "With a few more albums under my belt."

Lady Gaga's 'Judas' Co-Director Explains Video's Religious Imagery

 

It seems like most anything Lady Gaga does will spark some sort of controversy. And while the "Judas" video is filled with biblical imagery that may spark lots of healthy debate, Gaga says she is not trying to anger any religious groups.
Shortly after the clip made its debut, Gaga explained that it "is not meant to be an attack on religion. I respect and love everyone's beliefs." She expressed similar sentiments several times leading up to the premiere of "Judas," declaring that "it's meant more to celebrate faith than it is to challenge it."
When MTV News spoke to Laurieann Gibson, who co-directed the video with Gaga, her comments mirrored the singer's.
"To the religious groups, I don't even know that there's religious [stuff in there]," she explained. "I'm like, you know, Jesus did have a crown of thrones, he did die for my sins. I'm a believer, so I say to them, those religious people, personally, I can't speak for Gaga, but as a director, a choreographer, as a believer, I say, 'Take a look at yourself.' For me, I would never [defame] my savior and the love and the non-judgment of what Jesus means to me. So I say, 'Take a closer look at why you're judging.' "
Many may wonder why Gaga and Gibson settled on a video that would cause so many to react so strongly. Gibson explains, "The discussions were massive, the concepts were many prior to landing on a place. They were just exciting, full of passion. It was a magical process and we're really proud of where we ended up.
"I think the concept stuck with this one because ultimately there was a place where we wanted to leave the interpretation up to each individual and not take away [Gaga's] power as a performer, as a dancer, as a star," she continued. "And to leave the moments for you to interpret, and be inspired by the fact that everyone has a Judas in their life and there is a place of deliverance."

Lady Gaga HBO Special Gives Fans A Taste Of 'Marry The Night'


Lady Gaga's First HBO especial is nearly 120 minutes of Gaga onstage and giving fans unprecedented behind-the-scenes access. A mixture of concert footage in color and backstage shots in black-and-white, HBO's "Lady Gaga Presents the Monster Ball Tour: At Madison Square Garden" is a love letter to her hometown, fans and her roots and also puts viewers in the front row at one of her shows.
The special opens with Gaga greeting her friends on the Lower East Side in Manhattan and buying a coffee at a local deli decked out in a biker jacket, bodysuit and heels. She struts through the neighborhood and into an SUV. She pulls up to Madison Square Garden. From the car, she greets her fans. "You know how many times I came to this arena? And now they're opening up these gates for us," she marvels to her team.
Now viewers are backstage as she puts on makeup andconfesses, "I start to think about all the people that have tried to stop me, and I get this super-intense fury. ... I just sometimes feel like a loser still."
The biggest reveal in the special is watching Gaga backstage singing a few lines of her still-unreleased Born This Way track "Marry the Night." It happens fast, but Little Monsters are sure to eat up footage of her singing the track to herself.
"I'm gonna marry the night/ I won't give up on my life/ I'm a warrior queen/ Live passionately tonight," she sings to herself, waiting for her show to begin. This moment marries her pre-show life with her stage life. And just like that, fans are now at the Monster Ball at Madison Square Garden. The concert footage was shot earlier this year during two nights at MSG.
The Monster Ball itself has been edited with a constant stream of Gaga-isms about her fans, adversity and individuality, along with quick frenzied backstage shots, song changes (old and new) and, of course, costume changes (many of which are documented in those backstage moments). It gives anyone who hasn't been there in person a good idea of what the show is all about.
The set list includes: "Just Dance," "You and I," "Born This Way," "Alejandro" and many other Gaga favorites that are highlighted by Gaga's ferocious presence and over-the-top staging. After the concert wraps, fans are once again backstage as Gaga, her team and her family celebrate the show. In a particularly touching moment, she hugs her dad. Gaga is seen leaving MSG in a feathered jacket as the special ends. During the credits, fans are treated to one last treat: Gaga practices "BTW" with her backup singers a cappella.
