This week seemed to offer a something for everyone on Planet Pop! Lady Gaga premiered her music video for “Alejandro” (causing Katy Perry to premiere her own thoughts on the clip). Christina Aguilera dropped new album Bionic. Brandon Flowers’ first solo single crept onto the web and Adam Lambert graced the cover of L.A. gay mag Frontiers. Head below to see how our readers reacted (and boy did they ever).

:: Sarah weighed in on the controversy in Is Lady Gaga’s “Alejandro” Video Too Over The Top?: “This video to me in three words: abstract, to say the least. artistic and certainly emotional. Am I Catholic, yes. Was I offended by her eating the rosary and her dressing as a nun…no I actually found it fascinating, ok maybe not fascinating but my eyes were glued to my screen as I watched. Possibly in disbelief or possibly just in admiration of her courage to express her own ideas.”

:: MB, on the other hand, offered up this advice to Gaga: “She really should try to be herself instead of Madonna.”

:: noyb appeared equally unimpressed: “that was horrible!!!!!! i will go listen to some ke$ha to make me feel better!!!!!!”

:: in the end, Tim might have said it best: “It’s a music video people. It’ll be on the radio and tv for two months and then it’ll disappear. Get over it.”

:: Brandon Hall further lamented the new clip in Review Revue: Critics (And Katy Perry) React To Lady Gaga’s “Alejandro” Video: “Why is it when shes ‘doing things for the gays’ its always these cliche half naked men, cant woman be gay too, and I’m not talking about those ugly ogres in the telephone video.”

:: Switching gears, All These Things That I’ve Boinked made a hot fuss in Get Caught In The “Crossfire” Of Brandon Flowers’ New Single: “Eep!! She is not aging well…please grow your pretty plumage back, Flamingo.”

:: Irony turned their nose up at The Top 10 Worst Lyrics On Christina Aguilera’s Bionic: “One Ke$ha song wipes the floor with the entire Bionic album when it comes to bad lyrics.”

:: Xtina’s latest also found a fan in norma on Christina Aguilera Rocks “You Lost Me” And Some Classics On The Early Show: “She was absolutely gorgeous, a voice to die for, omg i love bionic.”

:: Young love weighed in on The 7 Classiest Quotes From Adam Lambert’s Frontiers Cover Story: “I am thirteen and will always love him. I feel so lucky to have found something that will last. something permanent. don’t ever change.”

:: Swillo also proved Adam’s cougar fan base is just as loyal: “I’m 55 and am loving Adam, I have been waiting for him since Elvis. Love every track on his album and cant wait for him to bring his Glam show to Brisbane, Australia.”

:: COMMENT OF THE WEEK: Finally, Used to dig Perry lashed out at a certain hot N cold singer in Review Revue: Critics (And Katy Perry) React To Lady Gaga’s “Alejandro” Video: “Maybe if Katy managed to come up with something that doesn’t say ‘I’m a sexy girl and want heterosexual men to beat off while they watch my video’ she wouldn’t be so jealous… Go kiss a girl and shut your pathetic face, Katy.”
