Akon says Christina Aguilera is Trying to Copy Lady GaGa

Akon thinks Lady GaGa has every other artist in the game shook, insisting they're all copying her style.

AKON is convinced LADY GAGA has scared all her music rivals into copying her sound - insisting CHRISTINA AGUILERA is "trying to do the exact same thing musically".
The R&B singer takes the credit for discovering Gaga after he signed her to his KonLive label at Interscope Records in 2007 when she was dropped by another of the company's imprints.
The Poker Face hitmaker went on to become an international music sensation, and Akon is convinced her popularity is having an effect on other pop stars who are trying to compete.
Akon admits he's listened to Aguilera's upcoming album, Bionic, and he's convinced the Dirrty hitmaker is doing herself a disservice by trying to mimic Gaga's inimitable style.
He tells Details magazine, "Christina shouldn't have anything to prove or anyone to compete with. I miss the old Christina Aguilera. I like the old one better than the new one. Honestly, Gaga and Christina could probably get together and do something that's amazing. But that's impossible if they are both trying to do the same exact thing musically.
"(Aguilera is) not even any competition. You are actually giving Christina too much credit. She always had her cool little look and way about how she went about things. But soon as Gaga came out, everything switched up. Christina stepped out of her own shell to become something different. And the crazy thing is Christina is really talented.
"I think sometimes she gets insecure because of all of the success Gaga has had, not realising that she was already successful before Gaga came out."

Akon shut the fuck up really! That is like saying that Obama is wanting to be George Bush! X-Tina was in the game when Gaga had her first period! What the fuck! So tired of these people making to be this bitch out of an icon, and she has only been known nationality 2 years! She is a puppet for the Illuminati, she is not original to say the least! The people she is emulating have already done it way before her! Plus X-Tina got a voice on her, please this bitch is a mouse pissing on bread, compared to X-Tina!

Why is Akon looking like one of the starving kids happy to met an American
This loser azz turtle

Why would Akon even open up that door knowing Madonna, crazy Grace Jones, Rue Paul and about a milli artists/dancers/actors from the 80's can make the same claims against GAGA's busted face azz...
Ever heard of 80's PUNK Akon or did you just enter into the industry without doing your musical/fashion history

Christina Aguilera > Lady Gaga. There is no comparison, and this is coming from someone who likes Gaga's music.

It's the other way around isn't it?

Chris had the plat blonde/red lipstick/naked all the time thing going way before Gaga entered the scene.

Akon's just trying to stir up publicity.

Well, I love them both! So...who cares, Akon. Stop trying to start some shit unless its a song between the two. Besides, they are two different singers/performers and everyone used some of the some stylists,producers,etc. so them are bound to be similiarities.

Ironic.

I read a while back that Gaga was compared to Aguilera when her first hit "Just Dance" came out in 2008. Lady Gaga considered the comparison a compliment, while Aguilera was like, "Gaga who?"

Funny what a difference two years make...

OK - Akon needs to shut up and fall back trying to rewrite history...

Aguilera stepped "out of her own shell" back in 2002 when she released her second album "Stripped." And caught ALOT of hell for it.

In fact, Gaga has imitated some of Aguilera's material from that very album. I guess that's where the first comparisons between Aguilera & Gaga began some years ago.
