Controversial has always been one of the majar factors of superstardom, no matter good or bad. And ever since Madonna had made it big, everytime whenever there's some controversial diva out, ppl would start comparing and relating. But over the years, there has only been very few that's actually been blessed privately & publically by the Queen of Pop and became the Princess of Pop (they r Kylie, Britney & Xtina respectively). Also, there's this new Lady of Pop! C'mon, ppl! Pls stop the comparision! So tired of all those! Each and everyone of them is so unique in just too many ways!
Xtina's "Not Myself Tonight" video had been compared to Madonna's "Express Yourself" (apart from the similarities with GaGa's "Bad Romance") as it is a tribute to Madge! But now, "Alejandro"?! Gosh! Is it the sitting on top of the stairs over looking at naked boys? Or is it the vest with the bell pants dancing in black & white?? i can see how anyone could "related" to Madonna, but that's not even close to be claimed as her move to "try to be like Madonna."
Back to the video itself, the most ridiculous thing to say about the video is that those were "sexual acts!" As for all visual stuffs, from movies to music videos or a commercial, if u get it, u do; but if u don't get it, u just never will! Especially for a music videos, there won't be a plot u need to read to be able to understand it. But for those who do not get it, it is a video simply about the love of the military! GaGa was protrayed as the God of Love who also look after the military guys as love is for everyone, male or female, & for all religions. Those "sexual acts" were simply the struggling of the soldiers & the swallowing of rosery probably symbolised that love should not be bounded by some religious morals...... So it's nothing offensive to any religion that i could find.
i feel sorry for those who do not get the video! But well, i seriously do not think i care for any of those who do not get it anyway... ha ha! Here's the official short version of the video for everyone to enjoy!
