We're totally in love with Lady GaGa at the moment and her quirky, if a little bizarre style has been hailed as nothing we've ever seen before.

However, now it has emerged that there is reportedly a style war going on between GaGa and none other than Christina Aguilera. The 'war' has been fuelled by the critics, who have been accusing both ladies of stealing each others look.

It all reportedly kicked off last year, when Christina made her comeback after taking time off to raise her son Max. She chose a futuristic look for her new album, complete with PVC catsuits and a platinum blonde hairstyle, which was quickly likened to the then up-and-coming Lady GaGa

In fact critics were quick to accuse Christina of 'stealing' GaGa's style, as in addition to their similar wardrobes, they both liked OTT make-up and in some photos looked eerily similar.

Christina was quick to respond to the scathing remarks, saying she had her own style and had never even heard of Lady GaGa, but found the comparisons amusing.

She added: "You know, that’s funny that you mention that. This person was just brought to my attention not too long ago. I'm not quite sure who this person is, to be honest. I don't know if it is a man or a woman. I just wasn't sure," reports The Daily Mail.

"I really don't spend any time on the Internet, so I guess I live a little under a rock in that respect. I've been in this business so long there's always some comparisons."

Despite Christina's obvious dismissals, Lady GaGa has been more welcoming about the comparisons, saying: "Well, it was very flattering when it happened. She’s such a huge star and if anything I should send her flowers, because a lot of people in America didn't know who I was until that whole thing happened."

There clearly are similarities in both of their styles, but we're not necessarily convinced that Christina stole anyone's look. She is, after all the queen of reinvention and has experimented with this look before, especially during her 'Stripper' days.

That said, Lady GaGa's look does take it to the extreme, as her fashion has become her identity and not just a stage persona. Having been spotted out and about in tiny knickers and crazy headwear on a daily basis, we can safely assume that her style is firmly her own.

So is there a 'war' going on between these two? We're not convinced to be honest, we think they're just two artists with similar tastes, who express that through their fashion.
