MANIPULATION MONDAYS: KELLY VS. CHRISTINA

03.31.03

In the blue corner, Christina 'Dirrty' Aguilera. And in the red corner, Kelly 'Shut Up' Osbourne. Are you ready to rummmmmmmble?

It's no secret that Kelly and Xtina aren't the best of friends. A recent report quoted Osbourne as saying that Xtina was "a pussy" and that "she's like a f*****g feather. I could pick her up and chuck her across the room." Meow!

In honour of the impending catfight, we asked PowerShift viewers to do a little manipulating and create a picture of what a fight between the two kittens would look like. Here are some of our favourite entries. Using our keen Team Digital Art Expertise, we've critiqued each picture and given it a rating of 1 to 5 Andy Warhols.

Christina vs Kelly by Agatha
» Great setting: pig pens are menacing and mysterious, perfect for a brawl-to-the-death. Mmm...mudwrestling.
» Minimalist style; excellent use of the colour green.
» Massive globs of flying blood gives the image realism and depth.

» Overall:

Kelly vs Chris by Trevor
» Anything to do with Indiana Jones is awesome.
» Christina looks like she's trying to fly after the juicy steak she's spotted!
» What a man-ish chest you have, Kelly!

» Overall:

Untitled by Jonathan
» Bonus Dirrty Booty Points for this one.
» Extra Bonus Dirrty Booty Points for having Kelly point at it.
» Not sure what the glowing orbs on the right are supposed to be...gas? Thought bubbles?

» Overall:

Can't We Just Get Along! by Craig
» Sophia from Team Digital likes dogs dressed up in costumes - huge bonus for that.
» Each girl is pouting in a different direction, clearly illustrating the distance and dislike between the two.
»Historically accurate: Batman and Superman had a big fight in a comic book once. And even in real life, they weren't the best of friends...

» Overall:

I'll Make You Beautiful by Kyle
» Speech bubble a nice touch, but usually the text goes inside the bubble. As it stands, Xtina is saying "make you BEAUTIF". Thinking about it, if a frenzied Xtina were to attack Kelly shrieking that it would be really funny, so kudos to you, Kyle.
» The dolls are a great idea, but isn't that Sarah Jessica Parker on the left? Yeah, we were looking for Christina Aguilera. You nearly had us fooled. As if.

» Overall:

She Spit! by Stephers
» We love hand-drawn entries, especially ones with Ed The Sock thrown in for good measure.
» Ed is also making a very clever comment
» We really don't have any snide comments about this one. It kicks so much ass we're giving it 6 Andys out of 5!.

» Overall:

But wait! We don't want Manipulation Mondays to end! We want to see more of your artistic impressions up here on InsideMuch. We're so over the Xtina vs Kelly fight. Looking ahead, the Summer Sanitarium tour will soon be underway. What do you think it will look like backstage? With bands like Limp Bizkit, Metallica and Linkin Park it won't be hard for you to use your imagination.
