- "How Will I Know" by Whitney Houston was originally offered to Janet Jackson but she turned it down.

imagine if we'd never had that mastepiece as we know it

First Miley and now Ellie lying about the writing credits of their biggest hits...

I like Ellie, but I always thought she was a bit obsessed with her self-image. She has to maintain credibility I guess.

The Pussycat Dolls' "Don't Cha" was originally written for Paris Hilton.

Girls' Aloud's "Graffiti My Soul" was originally going to Britney for her In the Zone album, but the team rejected it because it lacked a strong enough hook... Their loss

"Yo-Yo" by Crystal Kay was written with Kylie Minogue in mind, but the team didn't even consider it... And it's such a bop!

Miss Independent was offered to Christina Aguilera and Destiny's Child before Kelly took it.
I Don't Want to Miss a Thing was offered to Celine Dion before Aerosmith took it.

Telephone was offered to Britney before Gaga.

So many don't write their own music to me, that's what makes a good artist.

Yeah I'm pretty sure that's it, she'd rather be a songwriter and doesn't want to be famous. It was also offered to Katy.

I'm glad Sia ended up singing it though because she sounds amazing on it.

Gaga said in an interview sometime last year how Telephone was originally written/intended for the Pussycat Dolls, since her job was basically writing for them at that time. They didn't want it, she said they wanted something more urban, but Britney's team heard it and wanted it.

Kelly wrote Tell Me A Lie and intended it to be for herself, but didn't use it and gave it to One Direction.

Same thing with Jordin Sparks and The Way, originally intended for herself but gave it to Ariana.

Kylie's ''Can't Get You Out Of My Head'' was offered to and rejected by S Club 7, and Sophie Ellis-Bextor also passed it before Kylie got it in late 2000.

Britney might have gotten Toxic, but Bloodshy & Avant also offered Speakerphone to Britney before Kylie recorded it and put it on her X album.

Sweet Dreams My LA Ex was written with Britney in mind (as a post-breakup song to Justin, her equivalent to Cry Me A River) but her team rejected it, saying it was too personal, so ex-S Club 7 member Rachel Stevens recorded it and launched her solo career with it.

Cathy Dennis wrote Catch You (a Sophie Ellis-Bextor song) for Paris Hilton's debut album and it was rejected, apparently for being too serious.

Can't Get You Out Of My Head was originally meant for Sophie Ellis Bextor.
Since U Been Gone was offered to Hilary Duff & P!nk
Paris Hilton asked for 'Don't Cha'
I'm A Slave 4 U turned down by Janet Jackson (To avoid the mess I assume)
