Britney Spears VS Christina Aguilera

[rj]

Me and my friend were having an argument about who is better, she thinks Christina is better, but I prefer Britney.

Most of the argument was about who has the better voice, looks, videos, music and who's more entertaining.

Now I'm not a major fan of Britney, but I would choose to listen to her music more than Christina's.

They both come from bad backgrounds. Britney and her family used to be in deep poverty and always loosing jobs and house.
Christina grew up being bullied at school, her Dad didn't care very much about her.

So vote and discuss.

Christina by faaar. They're not even in the same league!! The one big difference is: Christina has talent and Britney does not.

Britney's voice sounds so mechanical that I don't even believe it's her voice. And when Christina sings live, she has such a powerful voice. Also, Christina's music actually has meaning behind it and Britney's doesn't.

And one huge thing that really bugged me about Britney is when she first came out she pretended she was all innocent and stuff and just seemed so fake. And Christina, whenever I see her/hear her in interviews, she's always the same, always herself.

Christina grew up being bullied at school, her Dad didn't care very much about her.

Her Dad didn't care very much about her?? Didn't he beat her and her mom??

I voted for Christina. She has a terrific voice, and I like most of her songs. Shamefully I actually like quite a few of Britney's songs too She doesnt have a great voice though, its more her songs are catchy and marketable. What? The are!

Christina went through a skanky phase I didnt like, but her music was still decent. And she's pulled herself out of that now. Britney... well mostly I just have sympathy for her. Her life does seem to be a shambles, and some of that is her own fault but she gets more than her share of blasting and nastiness from the media, not all deserved. I don't hate her, I dont like her, I just feel sorry for her.

[rj]

Yeah, I have to agree saying that Christina has the better voice by far, but I do not find entertaining in anyway at all, Britney is a fantastic entertainer, mainly when she's on tour. She's danced with a snake! lol

I also disagree with Bre, Britney's voice is not mechanical, yes in some of her songs maybe, but she has done some songs that do have meaning and are nice to listen too.

[Beck]

They are both good entertainers imo, they wouldn't have gotten so far if they weren't. Britney certainly didnt get where she is by having the best singing voice, she uses good management, good songwriters and relies heavily on being a good entertainer as opposed to just being a brilliant singer.

I agree some of her songs have meaning, I guess it depends on who you are what songs mean to you. I personally really love the song I'm not a girl, not yet a woman. Don't know why. Has no meaning to me in particular, but I imagine it does for others. Christina does however have a lot deeper songs. The Voice Within is a fantastic song, and Beautiful has a lot of meaning too. Better yet, Christina co-writes her songs.

[Bre]

I also disagree with Bre, Britney's voice is not mechanical

Well to me it sounds .. fake. I'm just not a fan.

And yes, Britney is a good entertainer. But to be a great entertainer, you have to have the voice to go along with it, and I don't like her voice.

[Beck]

I think being a great entertainer doesnt always have to go along with a great voice. If you have a great voice you can pretty much just stand there and sing no one would care so much. But if you are weak with the voice, you NEED to be able to entertain as well. Otherwise who wants to watch a mediocre singer perform?

*embarrassed to be sticking up for Britney Spears*

[Bre]

You should be!

Otherwise who wants to watch a mediocre singer perform?

I'd rather do that than watch Britney Spears perform.

[Beck]

My point was Britney is a mediocre singer so she needs to be able to entertain well

[Glenn]

Well i dont like Britney Spears, i dont like listening to her as her voice makes me cringe. And she looks like a lizard when she sings, her tongue darts out of her mouth really quickly. Christina has a beautiful and also a powerful voice. She can really hit notes. Christina all the way, also i find her 10 times more attractive.

[rj]

Thats mainly due to her wearing 10 times more make-up.

[Glenn]

HA! You think Britney doesnt wear as much makeup. Thats a joke.

[rj]

No, I don't think she does, well not much now anyway.

I think Christina looks attractive....don't get me wrong, but she goes and throws a lode of make-up on, which seems to make her....less attractive.

[Beck]

They both wear far too much makeup, though Britney has toned it down a lot lately, but she does tend to look a mess quite often too Both women are very pretty imo, though when they are both all natural Christina wins my vote there as well.

Tell me what you guys think of this little battle about the two of them:

Britney VS Christina PART ONE

Round One: Singing Ability

BRITNEY: When Britney was a child she could sing anythink and put on a good show, she had an amazing voice then, but now its pop-crap, she is showing know trace of that talent what so ever. Though she does sing well in some of her songs, mainly the slow ones, she's just not as good as most other female singers around today.

CHRISTINA: Her vocal range in great and she can really hold a note, people say she just shouts into a microphone to get money, but she has a powerfull voice which want be forgotten. Her vocals scream talent.

Winner: CHRISTINA

Round Two: The better entertainer.

BRITNEY: She may mime her way through her concerts but she really knows how to put on a good show, she's done it all, to dancing in water to having a cobra around her. She dose her own dance moves and stunts and is very good at makeing people's eyes watch her every step on stage.

CHRISTINA: She dose sing live at her concerts, but as for dancing, lets just say she made need a few tips. Also people don't come to see her sing, they come to see her, she should make an effot and give people something they'll remember.

Winner: BRITNEY

Round Three: Writing and Meaning.

BRITNEY: Well what can I say, out of all the songs she's done (which is alot) she's only wrote about six herself, and co-wrote about 10 others. This isn't bad but its not good really, its all part of the music career, to write your own music, she doesn't do this often. Now as for meaning, only her "In the Zone" album has really had any meaning and the songs inside too, but mostly her songs a for "fun". (She did do a song called "Someday" which was dedicated for her baby boy, Sean-Preston)

CHRISTINA: Amazing writer and almost all of her songs have some hidden meaning. About 75% of her songs are written or co-written by her, she puts more into the songs then Britney does.

Winner: CHRISTINA

Round Four: Who had the better endorcement deals?

BRITNEY: She raised billions of dollars for Pepsi by appearing in a series of adverts, her biggest one being her collaboration with Pink and Beyonce.

CHRISTINA: Christina once again followed Britney and did a Coke-Cola advert, which made millions of pounds but she was sacked after she was caught drinking out of a Pepsi bottle.

Winner: BRITNEY

Round Five: Best Kisser.

BRITNEY: When it comes to kissing infront of the press, Britney keeps her lips covered as much as possible, but at the MTV Music awards in 2003 she let loose on Madonna and for some reason got more publicity for it then Christina did.

CHRISTINA: If you look at many of her pictures with her new husband she seems to never be off his lips and it ends up in all the mags and newspapers. Yet at the 2003 MTV Music awards she didn't get far enough publicity for kissing madonna then Britney did.

Winner: BRITNEY

END OF PART ONE

[Beck]

Um where did this come from? Cause its just opinion so doesn't mean an awful lot to me.

This to me is the important one, and yes Christina wins it hands down.

Winner: BRITNEY

Again a matter of opinion. Since I've never seen either in concert, can't judge.

Round Three: Writing and Meaning.

BRITNEY: Well what can I say, out of all the songs she's done (which is alot) she's only wrote about six herself, and co-wrote about 10 others. This isn't bad but its not good really, its all part of the music career, to write your own music, she doesn't do this often.

CHRISTINA: Amazing writer and almost all of her songs have some hidden meaning. About 75% of her songs are written or co-written by her, she puts more into the songs then Britney does.

Winner: CHRISTINA

Probably the only thing on this list apart from singing that means much.

Round Four: Who had the better endorcement deals?

BRITNEY: She raised billions of dollars for Pepsi by appearing in a series of adverts, her biggest one being her collaboration with Pink and Beyonce.

CHRISTINA: Christina once again followed Britney and did a Coke-Cola advert, which made millions of pounds but she was sacked after she was caught drinking out of a Pepsi bottle.

Winner: BRITNEY

Pepsi and coke arent their only endorsement deals, and its irrelevant to who is a better performer. Means nothing imo.

Round Five: Best Kisser.

BRITNEY: When it comes to kissing infront of the press, Britney keeps her lips covered as much as possible, but at the MTV Music awards in 2003 she let loose on Madonna and for some reason got more publicity for it then Christina did.

CHRISTINA: If you look at many of her pictures with her new husband she seems to never be off his lips and it ends up in all the mags and newspapers. Yet at the 2003 MTV Music awards she didn't get far enough publicity for kissing madonna then Britney did.

Winner: BRITNEY

Again, not seeing the relevance to this? So Britney got a lot of publicity from kissing Madonna. I dont see what their kissing styles have to do with anything.

So what do I think of the battle between them as written there? Not much. The two most important ones, singing and musical ability through songs and songwriting, Christina wins hands down imo. Performance can be judged in different ways, I dont know who entertains better. But a live vocal is always more likely to get a majority vote there.

[rj]

cool, just wanted to know what you thought. And it was just something me and my friend Jennie sent to my via email, I don't really know why, she's more of a Christina fan, she said she'd send the second part soon.

Also I wasn't thinking about who's the better preformer, I mean't who's the better person is general, this little battle may help. lol

[Beck]

Ah but you can't judge on who is a better person, especially as most information on both girls is not always reliable.

[Glenn]

I dont know either of them personally so couldnt say who the better person was

[Bre]

CHRISTINA: She dose sing live at her concerts, but as for dancing, lets just say she made need a few tips. Also people don't come to see her sing, they come to see her, she should make an effot and give people something they'll remember.

Yeah, see.. I think people go to her concerts to see her sing. I'm pretty sure 13/14 year old girls aren't going to go to see her do some sexy dances.

And about who's a better person, I obviously couldn't tell you 'cause I haven't met either of them.
