But Ayu makes it truly unique by adding Rock and Roll to it! I'm soo excited! 
(Don't get me wrong, I also loved the 3 albums of aforementioned Western singers, but even if they didn't rip Xtina off.. they did have very similar themes  ) |
Oh ok, I didn't know for the other artists. But it also shows that britney's circus theme is the most popular (at least in France). I mean, I never saw any "circus jacket" on girls in the past. Since britney's one, there are plenty of them on sale. So she may have made it 'in'?
The circus theme in itself is clearly not original, but given the fact that one of the most popular icon made an entire album/tour out of it one year or so ago, it's not very clever as I said. Would have been the same problem if she came up with a disco-themed album just after madonna's one.
But as I said, I don't wan't to have a real opinion as it's "rocn 'n' roll (circus)". She can make something reaaally different.
