I don't think I've ever been more offended by a poll.
Lets forget our FAVS for a second and just look at the PERFORMANCES.
vocally, artistically, entertaining-wise... who gives the better performance?
I would say its unfair to compare gaga to britneys current performances because shes allot older but madonna is allot older then BOTH of them and she can BUST HER ASS on the dancefloor and give a better performance then gaga+britney combined. So age is no excuse. Britney needs to up her performances because right now they are nowhere NEAR gaga's level.
How about at her peak whens he was pulling out those "amazing" dance routines y'all like to cite?
She sang live numerous times even then.

Debatable, I find Gaga to be plenty charismatic.
Ridiculous. Gaga is probably the poster child for anti-charisma.

Gaga is the more versatile performer, even by virtue of having two different settings she can successfully pull off.
Come off it. She either sits her ass at a piano or she throws everything including the kitchen sink on stage to aid her in her performances. That's not exactly 57 different varieties of performance. Britney can do that as well and she has. She has sat down at a piano and sang live before just as she has performed in more elaborate set ups. She has performed on a stripped down set too. Both of them can do more toned down performances just as they do more involved ones.

definition of charisma:Compelling attractiveness or charm that can inspire devotion in others. A divinely conferred power or talent. yes gaga has charisma

Uhuh. Sorry, she has plenty of charisma. Just watch The Monster Ball special, her performing in which received rave reviews.
If you'd just stuck to arguing that Britney at her peak was MORE charismatic, maybe you would have had a case, but Gaga = anti-charisma?
Give me a ****ing break.

The operative word being WELL. Britney's toned down performance with her facial histrionics make for an amusing time, but not much else.
Gaga can also successfully pull off the jazz vamp:

Disagree completely. She's pulled off quite a few performances where all she has done is sit down and sing. Televised and otherwise. Numerous performances of FTBOMBH, DLMBTLTK, INAGNYAW, Everytime, He About To Lose Me, Lucky, etc. so on and so forth. Britney is no stranger to that field.

And Britney has pulled off numerous cabaret inspired performances and has done jazz mixes as well.

Well, now we're just down to difference of opinion, because I've never seen an acoustic performance of Britney's that didn't contain junior high talent show vocals complete with hilariously overwrought emoting.

I would just love to hear Britney's jazz voice. Care to oblige me?
You ****ing wish anyone would consider both Rihanna and Katy actual performers.
Bey, Brit, Gaga >>>>>>>>>
You sound so distraught. Rihanna is a great performer, and even if she's not performing, she's selling out shows at world famous venues and getting magnificent reviews; the public loves her. She could pretty much sashay her pretty little ass across a stage and talk into a mic for two hours and still get better reviews than a lot of other gurlz that try. She does it all effortlessly, so I can see why you're mad.
Anyway, Britney.
I'm not here for Gaga and her disturbing performances.
