The Battle of The Pop Blonds

Maybe I'm just an old ass queen, who has grown too accustomed to these pop divas - only one is a true Icon (Madonna, do I need to type it, really) - yet I feel they have tied this year. I think they were the only people aware of the battle, since they both released or will release singles collections this fall; Madonna's Celebration was released in Sept and Britney's Singles Collection will be released on Nov 24 (the same day Lil' Wayne and Jay Sean's albums will be released - I can't wait to see who tops the charts that day).

Let's see the battles:

1. Madonna with the release of Celebration (which features a couple of new tracts, including duet with the hardest working man in Hip-hop) has finally left her Warner Bro. label to sign with LiveNation for oodles of money. By the way, LiveNation is trying to rule the world with Ticketmaster.
2. Britney is beyond comeback status and is here to stay even with her mediocre Circus album and her new single 3, which not only booted Jay Sean from Number 1 on the Hot 100, it has made history by being the 15th song to debut at Number 1. Mariah is on that list not twice but trice!
3. Madonna is not slotted on the list of debut singles at Number 1 on the Hot 100.
4. Madonna is old and tired of Warner Bro. so it's okay to release another anthology vs. Britney who is in her twenties and is releasing her second best of - please, girlfriend that is tired!
5. Celebration sounds better than 3; 3 is like a remix of Womanizer.
6. Both toured this year. Yet the Sticky and Sweet tour has made more money than any other tour in history, over $400 mil, well except the Rolling Stones. But she is number 2 with highest grossing tours.

As you can see, Madonna has won, even if it wasn't from the charts this year. Although it's 10 yrs of Britney, there has been more than twice that of Madonna. Also Madonna, Queen of Pop, was born the same year and month as MJJ, The King of Pop; it's as if something was special about that year for the future of popular music. Madonna just refuses to pass her throne to Britney, and who can blame her, even in her old age, Britney can barely hold a candle to this Pop Icon.
