More music people criticise Lady GaGa

The Rakes' Alex Donohoe and Just Jack have criticised Lady GaGa, following Gabriella Cilmi's earlier comments about her clothing and Auto-Tune use.

Following Aussie singer Gabriella Cilmi's previously reported comments about Lady GaGa, to the effect that she ought to put on more clothes, some other music types have criticised the pop singer.

The Rakes frontman Alex Donohoe has said that he prefers Leona Lewis's cleaner approach to pop, telling The Daily Star: "I can't stand Lady GaGa. She is basically selling crap to kids. I think she's terrible and really ugly. I hate her. Leona Lewis seems dull but nice. She has standards, nice skin and can sing. Whereas Lady GaGa is trash and dresses like a prostitute."

Just Jack, meanwhile has said that she and lots of her fellow pop stars are all a bit rubbish because of vocal tweaking technology Auto-tune: "A lot of modern songs rely on Auto-Tune too much. Not as a tool for tuning, but for giving vocals that weird brittle effect. It makes people like Rihanna, Lady GaGa and Katy Perry all the fucking same. I like organic elements in music. I like a vocal that sounds like it came out of someone's mouth rather than a weird singing robot".
