The two have a beautiful voice, dance like goddesses, are composers and come from the same culture.

Knows so much about writing songs as catchy as attend any event without going unnoticed, and while some will not tolerate to hear on the radio face Pocker, methods undoubtedly work to perfection: it has three of the twenty-five most downloaded issues iTunes has sold 40 million singles and 15 million albums.

While many are still wondering if Lady Gaga is just a character created by a clever music entrepreneur whose real name is Gaga, or if his eccentric fashion sense is just one facet of a complex artist that he likes to be noticed, the fact is that the new video he has done to promote your item Alejandro has generated an intense debate that includes both Madonna fans do not look favorably on the similarities with some classic videos of the queen of pop, conservative Catholics to the sectors for which it is a deliberate heresy and also the most loyal followers who claim that Lady Gaga the singer simply honors the artist who always inspired her, and only followed the path begun 24 years ago by the Madonna herself when she dared to fall in love with a black Christ in his controversial video Like a Prayer.

The controversy came to the Washington Post, who opened the debate on your pages published an article by theologian Mark Judge, who argues that “Lady Gaga is not Madonna,” as he says, “Like a Prayer was not understood at the time by Conservative groups who criticized him harshly, even though in reality it was a powerful description of the vitality of Catholic saints and their ability to intercede in our lives to encourage our courage. “ Judge says the video instead of Lady Gaga “is the antithesis of Madonna’s fascist, and who has no history calls the moral or conscience.” A few days later, he responded in the same page another theologian, Matthew Schmalz, who defended Lady Gaga saying that both singers are intrinsically linked because they are like two sides of the same coin and therefore appear to be like day and night. Some of that is true: Germanotta has a voice as unique as Ciccone, is a composer like her, the two dance like goddesses, they know how to sell their songs and even from the same culture italonorteamericana.

For the latter created an amazing video in which she sings with Beyoncé and was directed by Jonas Akerlund, the Swedish author of several of the videos like the famous Madonna Ray of light. Another regular collaborator of Madonna, the queen of pop, the photographer Steven Klein was the director of the video of Alexander.
