So upon the release of Lady Gaga's latest video, "Alejandro," Katy Perry posted on her Twitter account, "Using blasphemy as entertainment is as cheap as a comedian telling a fart joke."
So which videos/singer do you prefer -- videos about faux lesbianism or ones that feature latex outfits and swallowed rosary beads? |

Can you add a "I'd stab both bitches if the situation ever allowed it" option?

both of them are great. you just need to know them better. watch gaga's interview with larry king. i think gaga is the better one though since she's more of an impact person compared to katy perry. gaga actually has REASONS why she makes her videos, yeknow. the alejandro one was about homosexuality in the army, and the coffin in the beginning represents all the gay rights being restricted inside, but gaga carries a heart that has an "A" representing Alejandro, which is someone she loves in the video but he's gay. she's basically trying to say that you could take anything away from the gays but they still have the heart to keep going on, and the rest of the video is just about her trying to make alejandro like her, even if his friends try to make love to her near the end. just like bad romance, it represents woman's rights when gaga tries to stand up against her russian sex owner.
so gaga REAL competition would be between madonna and gaga. alejandro has lots of allusions to madonna's videos |

katy perry is only famous because she has big boobs. end of story.
lady gaga is the new madonna. that's not a compliment. i wish you could vote for neither, but if you have to pick one, at least you can pretend that katy perry is zooey deschanel. |

I love Gaga. As for Katy, I can't take a woman seriously when she wears a whipped cream-squirting bra in her video. That's so degrading on so many levels. She knows how to really rock Nina Ricci's heelless platforms. |

okay katy perry's always bitching at high profile personalities so it's whatever
i think they're both cool, but I do like Lady Gaga more, but only cause i'm more familiar with her. I don't think they're in the same category though |

i feel like lady gaga's "theatricality" is something that's been seen in the art world for so long, that it surprises me there are people who are still even "shocked" by what she puts out. but if that's what it takes to make the rest of the world catch up with the craziness that is downtown new york city, then i support it.

She knows how to really rock Nina Ricci's heelless platforms. no my post was just a general reply to anyone who thinks her videos are just about her showing off her freaky costumes or doing something outrageous, when they know it's nothing to freak about. music videos are meant to be a form of musical art IMO. As much as I hate to admit it, I'd say that they're in the same category. Both are pop singers...? so is madonna, britney spears, justin bieber, etc. :X |

cash rules everything around me Is that a reference to artwork in NYC? I was flipping through a book of NY street art at Kinokuniya yesterday and saw a piece that says that. who the f*ck voted katy perry I nulled my vote because I don't think the two are comparable, even if they are both pop singers. I like both their music for different reasons. |

^I thought that for the longest time too, but I mean she is an entertainer and she succeeds at entertaining. Pop was never solely about how good you could sing anyway.
I can see her appeal, and I don't hate her music anymore...as much. Still pretty homo for Steven to like her though. At least been;y has an excuse. |
