People The duel

Madonna VS Gaga

Madonna is the most successful famale artist of all time. 
she is often compared to Madonna and accused of copying her. 

Madonna's MUSIC 
Provacative and shocking are words that best describe Madonna and her music. At the start of her career in the 1980s, she shoked fans with songs such as "Like a Virgin". Her music was original and catchy.

Madonna's Style
A punk look with lace, a Marlyn Monoroe look, a cowgirl look, a Che Guevara look... in the past 30 years Madonna has been a style chameleon. She has constantly reinvented herself. her sty les have started fashion trends and girls have always copied her looks. 

Madonna's videos
Madonna wears provocative clothes in her videos, and has a unique dance style. She has won 20 MTV Video Awards: that's a world record. 

Madonna's concerts 
Madonna's Sticky & Sweet tour (2008-2009) is the higest-grossing tour by a female artist in history. 


Now she has a rival: Lady Gaga
so Who is the real wueen of pop?

Lady Gaga's MUSIC

Lady Gaga's look is original, but did Gaga copy Madonna's music? Gaga's song "Born This Way" is similar to "Express Yourself" by Madonna. But Gaga says the melody is hers. 
Do you agree? 

Lady Gaga's style

Lady Gaga is not style chameleon, she's a style alien: she loves science fiction and 1970s glam rock. She has copied some of Madonna's looks and likes to shock, but her style is darker, bizzarre and more extreme::: remember her meat dress?
Gaga, don't be too extreme... some fans are vegeterian!

Lady Gaga's viedeos

Gaga has won 13 MTV video Awards after only three years in music. Her videos are like short films, and she uses strange imagery to shock.... 
Gaga, only seve more awards and you'll beat Madonna. 


Lady Gaga's concerts
Gag's Monster Ball Tour is the most successful tour by a debut artist in history. Well done!
Gaga, Madonna is still winning.
