With the release of Lady Gaga's latest single, "Born This Way," this morning (Feb. 11), pop music fans have finally been able to compare the track with the other reigning pop diva's highly anticipated new single -- Britney Spears' "Hold It Against Me."
Lady Gaga's 'Born This Way' Premieres
Since the first single to Spears' forthcoming seventh album "Femme Fatale" debuted on Jan. 10, the song has debuted at No. 1 on the Hot 100 and sold 790,000 copies through four weeks, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The full-length music video for "Hold It Against Me," which was produced by pop maestros Lukasz "Dr. Luke" Gottwald and Max Martin along with the producer Billboard, debuts next Thursday (Feb. 17), before "Fatale" hits stores on Mar. 29.

After Lady Gaga performs the song at the Grammy Awards ceremony on Sunday (Feb. 13), the single has a shot at debuting at No. 1 on the Hot 100 -- becoming the 1000th song to take the top position on the chart.
