Two divas grace the cover of W Magazine's July issue. Beyonce Knowles looks to be channeling her alter-ego Sasha Fierce for the cover (she says Sasha is about "showing my sensuality in a new way"), while Christina Aguilera went au natural, posing nearly nude for the publication. 

Which cover do you prefer? Vote on the poll and leave us some comments below.

W asked the divas a series of questions, ranging from Beyonce's work with the always outlandish Lady Gaga to The Voice team leader X-Tina saying what she really thinks of American Idol. 

The Queen B collaborated with Gaga on the song "Telephone" and says she's the pop star's "biggest fan."

"When I first saw her perform, I actually called her and said, ‘You are great!’ That was before her popularity hit, and we had a natural connection. Later, she asked me to do her video, and I said, ‘I trust you, Gaga. I’ll do whatever you want me to do.’"

While Gaga is gaining success with her new album Born This Way, Beyonce is gaining a lot of traction for her upcoming release of 4. She explained the album title, telling W: 

"It’s an important number in my life: the date of my birthday, my mom’s birthday, my husband’s birthday, the day I got married. Barack Obama is the 44th president, and I performed ‘At Last’ by Etta James at his inauguration."

Meanwhile, Christina sounds off on her role on The Voice and defends her national anthem flub. She recalled that Super Bowl Sunday, saying, "Everything on the field at the Super Bowl was vividly bright, and I was having a moment.  I got lost in the emotion of being there and I messed up the lyrics to the song."

Now things are looking up as X-Tina is now a fixture on the wildly popular singing show The Voice. She compared her show to that of the FOX show Idol, saying, "Everything on the field at the Super Bowl was vividly bright, and I was having a moment.  I got lost in the emotion of being there and I messed up the lyrics to the song."
