Christina Aguilera said her new style and sound is inspired by pop-art and artist like Sia and Goldfrapp. In an interesting interview with MTV News, Christina discussed her new sound and style and laughed those comparisons with Lady Gaga,  she’s quick to point out that she’s not terribly focused on the current state of music.  Rather, Christina’s styled herself in a manner that pays homage to artists from the past, all while looking towards the future too.

“I wanted to give [fans] a little sneak preview of what’s to come [with the VMA performance]. The vein of the new material is a futuristic take on what is inspiring me at the moment … and it’s got a very pop-art feel, visually,” she explained. “[There's a] throwback to Andy Warhol and all the colors and vividness and bright boldness that was in that artwork. I’m a big collector of pop art and graffiti art at this point, too — D*Face and Banksy, also Roy Lichtenstein … and it’s been very fun venturing off into that zone.”

“I was very inspired by the look and feel of that [pop-art] genre, your Jane Birkins, your Blondies, females who have come before who have done this so many times and so well — almost as an homage to them,” she explained. “Also, speaking of Warhol, Nico from the Velvet Underground … so it all kind of ties in to a pop-art feel and twist, with a mod look. But a futuristic taste of what’s to come.”

OMG!! I was like …  WTF? You know everybody is talking about Christina new style, and they are saying she stole Lady Gaga’s style… well, I think they are right. Here’s a report from Perez Hilton.

“As many of you know by now, it’s obvious that Christina Aguilera has been borrowing looks from Lady Gaga. Her hair, her makeup, her outfits. Even her music is starting to sound more like Gaga’s!

Xtina just spoke about it for the first time.

And, now, she’s dissing Gaga some more in another new interview!

Aguilera just “laughs those comparisons off” and instead she goes on to name-drop everyone that has recently inspired her, minus, Gaga. Xtina says that Sia and Goldfrapp are big inspirations for her current look and sound.

Yea, right!

And then she goes on to “borrow” Lady Gaga’s terminology.

Gaga is known to describe her music as “pop art” inspired.

But Xtina says during her interview of her new look and sound, “Also, speaking of Warhol, Nico from the Velvet Underground … so it all kind of ties in to a pop-art feel and twist, with a mod look. But a futuristic taste of what’s to come.”

Gaga has used that same explanation forever!!!!!!!!!

In an earlier interview Gaga perviously said, Andy Warhol “made fine art out of, I don’t know, commercial … the concept of commercial work. And that’s what I’m trying to do. It’s pop music, but it’s art. It’s pop art music”

She said the same thing back in May and on other various occasions, such as stating several times, “I consider myself to make pop art music.”

Even the NY Post has Gaga saying, “I want to make pop music, pop art performance and pop fashion that’s taken seriously as high fashion and highbrow.”

Listen, it’s ok to get inspired by other musicians. But don’t lie about it, Aguilera!!!!!!!

I don’t know, Maybe Xtina saw LG and she loved her style, but she doesn’t want to admit it. All what Xtina said is the same LG argument… It’s pretty weird.
