I think this one is pretty self-explanatory. I like them both, honest i do, but it’s just that Christina has SO much more singing talent than Britney. My sister disagrees. She says that I should post my opinion on here so that people can change my mind.
Well, Britney fans, do yo thang…
(Or)
Well, Christina fans, prove my sis wrong!

Oh, boy. **slythe** is going to kill me for this one, but “survey-style” questions such as this really belong over at **In My Humble Opinion**.
Besides, the correct phrasing of the OP should include the phrase “and if you had a gun with only one bullet…”

LMAO Manny,
But if I had a gun with only one bullet, Britney Spears would have to go. I’d kill the other one with my bare hands.

This is really getting retarded… I feel like I’m in Teen magazine polling :rolleyes:
Well considering your last post, Tory, in the mpsims, I would think Brittney would need to be your role model instead of slutty Christina. Brinttney has her mommy or her chaperone take her everywhere to save her precious viginity. Christina on the other hand has a more vamp like look.
I think Brinttney is prettier but Christina has the better voice.
satisfied?

Oh, I beg you, please shut up, Tubagirl. I don’t think you can really talk…
You are the creator or such deep and thought-provoking threads as, “Giving Head while driving.”
But, no hard feelings, i think we’re even. I agree with you about Brit and Christina… Brit IS prettier, but Christina has a better voice.

A naked fight to the death. Now there’s a show I’d buy a ticket for .

Considering that Britney has caused me to hear a 7-year-old girl screech over and over again “Hit me baby, one more time.” and that I’ve never heard anything by Christina, I’d have to vote for Christina if I was forced into an opinion.
[hijack] I touched a Britney Spear CD yesterday! Am I doomed? [/hijack]

Kat – Ignorance is bliss. Trust me on this one.
Oh, and don’t worry…touching a Britney CD won’t hurt you as long as it was still in the jewel case. You didn’t touch the actual CD, did you? You did? Oh, no…

Oh, Britney, hands down. Christina does that affected fluttery-hand thing when she’s doing her affected crappy R&B vocal guitar solo thing, which always makes me reach for the carbine. Then I remember I don’t have a carbine. Then Carson Daly comes on. I like Carson. He’s a funny guy. Then Britney comes on. So I stare at her for a while. My brain, of course, seceded from the union about three days ago in disgust. Screw it, it wants to go drink red wine and read Joyce it can be my guest. I got better things to do. Then the Backstreet Boys come on…

If that gun was a .44 magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and could blow a teeny-bopper’s head clean off, I would ask you one question: can I line the two of them up right behind each other? 😃

I am personally of the opinion that CA and BS are the same person. Have you ever seen them together? Nope, they either appear with (a) N’Sync, or (b) Backstreet Boys (who are also both the same band, IMO). It’s all part of new costcutting measures at their record labels.

Oooh, why not just have them drive off a cliff in the same car? Much more satisying!

Hand grenades–solves the whole lack of ammo thing right there. Just put em both in a small room, toss in a grenade, close the door, and see how long it takes before one gets curious and pulls the pin.

I’ll take the cop out guy answer and say whichever one shows her breasts in public first has my vote.

Neither one can sing, neither one can dance, and they both look like little sluts.
Did I mention that their music really sucks?

Heh, my cousin was telling me last week that she used to go to dance school with Christina A. She also mentioned 2 other things. 1) Christina is/was stuck up and nobody really liked her. 2) She (my cousin) beat her in finals dance and singing competition. I thought that was funny!
BTW, I don’t really care for Christina or Britney. They’re flying high right now, but it wont last. I see an E! True Hollywood story down the road for at least one of them.

If I had both of them in front of me and a gun with _two_ bullets, I’d shoot Brittney twice, just to make sure that I got her.

Hell, Kat. You’re OK. At least you didn’t **buy** a Britney Spears CD the other day, like I did.

I wouldn’t cross the street to listen to either of them, but . . .
Christina Aguilera sang the role of “Mulan” in the Disney movie, and I heard her belt out the national anthem at a baseball game once, so I must admit – grudgingly –
That girl can sing. She has an awesome set of pipes. Which, of course, she wastes in bubble-gum dreck and/or Celine Dion histrionics. I do _not_ like her music, but she’s got a heck of a voice.
Britney, on the other hand, is a blonde with a belly button and not much else. And what’s up with that squeaky, voice-breaky thing she does on her latest song? It bugs the crap out of me. Everytime I hear either one of them I have to go play some Janis Joplin as a sort of antidote.
