Megan Fox Vs. Lady GaGa: Who Wins at Internet Celebrity?
The internet can be a scary place for celebrities. Sure, most celebrity blogs won’t hire paparazzi to run your car off the road, but internet gossip is a lot bigger and meaner than olden-days gossip. It’s a giant wormhole that sucks actors, singers, and unsuspecting reality TV tools down, and only recently have the celebrities begun to throw themselves in willingly.
But it’s an easy system to game if you don’t mind being called a fat busted whore slut by bloggers and commenters: give ten thousand blogs something to post about you, and ten thousand blogs will post about you. Ten million people will then read these posts. No one has this figured out better than Megan Fox and Lady GaGa, neither of whom has achieved anything particularly noteworthy in traditional acting or singing, but both of whom have achieved something much more complicated. But which is the queen of the celebrity internet? Showdown, after the jump.

First Nipple Slip
Megan Fox: December ’07
Lady GaGa: February ’09
Most Clownish Costumes
Lady GaGa left, Megan Fox right. I think the winner here is obvious enough. Lady GaGa is like the Michael Phelps of this game, but twice as high. Though the number of fake Megan Fox pictures in superhero outfits really threw me for a loop on this category.
Shameless Internet-Attention-Whoring Quote About Bisexuality
Megan Fox: “I was in love with this girl that worked at the Body Shop,” said Fox. “I decided that I was going to get her to love me back, and I went out of my way to create a relationship with this girl, a stripper named Nikita… I just think that all humans are born with the ability to be attracted to both sexes. I mean, I could see myself in a relationship with a girl — Olivia Wilde is so sexy she makes me want to strangle a mountain ox with my bare hands. She’s mesmerizing. And lately I’ve been obsessed with Jenna Jameson, but … oh boy.”
Lady GaGa: She tells Hiatt she’s bisexual, but her attraction to women is purely physical. It’s an aspect of her sexuality that makes boyfriends “uncomfortable,” she says.
Bonus GaGa, on what she looks for in a man: “A big d*ck. And nothing else.”
Can They Be Friends?
From an upcoming interview with Complex.
Gaga: Who is this trash?
Interviewer: Megan Fox
Gaga: Oh, I should have known, she reeks of unintelligent slut.
Interviewer: Not a fan, huh?
Gaga: Not at all. Then again, I’m not a fan of other circus freaks.
So… maybe!

Gaga is more successful then Fox. She’s touring and has had #1 singles overseas and here. So, I wouldn’t say she’s done NOTHING noteworthy. Fox is hotter though and well….yeah.
To Kenny B: Gaga more successful than Fox? I’d like to introduce you to a couple of movies about 1980s children’s toys that are transforming robots…
Personally not a big fan of either one, but I guess you could see I like Gaga less. Speaking of whom…

Dear Pot,
You’re black!

Oh please, GaGa has no talent. She’s a so-called pop artist which means anything now days. I look at it this way, instead of picking up a microphone and competing on American Idol, she took the easy way by picking up a d*ck… a lot of them! She’s so stupid — as open and controversial as she tries to make herself, what’s stopping her from becoming a pornstar, really? As for talent, it’s all hype with a lot of smoke and mirrors. Not only that but she’s fugly! If that ain’t a butterface, then I don’t know what is.
But really, why compare her to Megan? I think a younger Angelina, or someone else would’ve been more ideal.
well, the comparison is meant to be between two celebrities who have managed to create an almost unbelievable amount of interest among online readers in their personas, rather than between two people who look similar or do similar work. i’ve been running other search terms through google trends out of curiosity, and no other people in the world have consistently generated the kind of search traffic that these two have in 2009, except one – michael jackson. but not paris hilton or carrie prejean or barack obama. hell, there was almost as much interest in megan fox when transformers came out as there was in barack obama when he was inaugurated. http://www.google.com/trends?q=megan+fox,+lady+gaga,+barack+obama&ctab=0&geo=all&date=2009&sort=0
