It has been said (no cite) Christina Aguillara has a much better singing voice but Britney Spears is much more media friendly and a better performer.

Who do you like better and does anyone know who is richer??

Isn’t Christina the one with the curly hair?

I think that Christina has a much better singing voice. I generally like her songs better, too.

Brittany is a little cheesy but I’m not a Brittany-Hater. I like some of her songs, too, though. Not because they are deep and meaningful, but because the damn things are catchy. haha

I think they are both dreadfully over-rated tarts. Not be too cruel but I don’t consider either to be particularly talented. Christina has a great singing voice? Er…more like she carries the same note again and again (popular thing to do these days). I have yet to see any range from her at all. She is the whitest woman in America yet she does her best to create this idea that she is from the barrio or some other such nonsense. Take away the make-up and she is rather unpleasant looking. I am sorry but it is so fake that I am not sure whether to laugh or cry.

Britney Spears may actually be a barbie doll. Not exactly sure where her career is going but I do see a playboy spread in her future.

Ya,ya…But come on dopers, whooz richer…who has a bigger bank account. I have been able to find very little on this. Britney made like $ 39 milliion in 2002 but I can’t find anything much on Christina’s earnings.

I have always felt like Britney was a studio creation, and that her singing skills were second rate, while Christina has been critically acclaimed for her voice and range. Kind of a substance vs sizzle debate.
