In his review for Bionic, Jon Pareles of the New York Times noted that the album was a "artistic swerve" for Aguilera compared to her previous two studio albums, but the journalist commented that the singer's new music direction "makes her sound as peer-pressured as a pop singer can be."

I agree with this to a certain extent. I don't really believe that this entire record is a GaGa knock-off at all. However, Christina is essentially going with the flow like everyone else and is doing electropop. But there's nothing wrong with that.
Lady GaGa didn't invent electropop, but everyone and their mother thinks that any female artist who is doing it now is copying her. Last I checked, albums like
Blackout were released even before
The Fame. Yes, I like GaGa, and I do think that she
one of the dominating forces of this music right now, but she doesn't define it.
