Christina Agui-ga-ga: Visual Plagiarism

So I kept seeing this picture in alot of different places on the WEBZ, so I've decided to post it also. However my contribution was lifted from Lady Gaga's twitter

with the caption: "Oh Christina! You're really not yourself tonight!"

I will explain why Xtina ended up doing a poor Gaga impersonation...

When you are in music or any other type of art, you have to keep up with what your contemporaries are doing (this should be done by watching those that are popular).
Now, you don't have to like what they do...but it is important that you remain aware!
You can't live under a rock in the business of art... it's a bold move, but it can go terribly wrong.




Now this video treatment is a direct rip-off of Gaga.
It includes set-ups from a host of Gaga vids.
But mainly it Borrows ALL of "bad romance" Which I believe is now the most watched you tube video ever.

Xtina just come forward and say you admire Gaga and wanted to do something similar, cause otherwise you are a silly plagiarist.

"I do not know if you remember the tale of the girl who saves the ship under mutiny by sitting on the powder barrel with her lighted torch and all the time knowing that it is empty? This has seemed to me a charming image of the women of my time. There they were, keeping the world in order by sitting on the mystery of life, and knowing themselves that there was no mystery."
