Top musical sibling rivalries

Who’s the pretty one? Who’s the smartest? Who gets the biggest bedroom when someone moves out of the house?

For the most part, sibling rivalry is about petty (yet somehow enormously important) stuff. When the debate outgrows the household, however, the stakes get higher, the tricks get dirtier, and the ego bruises can hurt a little more.

Blender examined some of the top sibling wars in rock and roll history and came up with a list of 12.

Here goes, in reverse order:

12. Incubus vs. Audiovent

11. Brandy and Ray J

10. Jessica Simpson and Ashlee Simpson-Wentz

9. Benji Madden and Joel Madden

8. Mark Wahlberg and Donnie Wahlberg

7. Chris Robinson and Rich Robinson

6. Britney Spears and Jamie Lynn Spears

5. Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jimmie Vaughan

4. Carnie Wilson and Wendy Wilson

3. Nick Carter and Aaron Carter

2. Noel Gallagher and Liam Gallagher

1. Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, and the Jacksons
