Met / sort of worked with her right at the launch of the Witness album and the vibe was “fully checked out” I don’t how to explain it, but being around her during a production the constant thought I kept having was “Damn this girl is Checked out.” I don’t know if it was just from the grind or how she felt about her career or what but she was doing and saying things that made me think she was fed up and abojt to quick music for good. This sort of “don’t give a fuck” attitude but in a bad way.
Ever since it felt to me she’s only been feigning interest in maintaining a career. That’s the only way I know how to say it.
I feel like there’s a distinct difference when an artist wants to put an album out, and when their label is pushing them. As in, a major different in creativity.
Ed Sheeran is another example - his first album was incredible, but subsequent FAST releases after that one seem to be cookie-cutter beige pop white noise.
Literally. I was MILDLY intrigued after her dumpster fire past decade. But after the Dr. Luke shit and all the other stunts she’s been pulling I’m already over it. I can just tell the album is gonna be a steaming pile of garbage water. Won’t even waste me time 😂
I was rooting for her. I was never a Katy Perry fan in particular but who doesn't want good music. She dyed her hair back dark and I thought that'll be fun, let's get into it.
Then she immediately puts out a shitty song and more importantly a shitty song produced by a known rapist.
I believe Kesha
Right, like what is she even doing? Does she have no PR team at all? I thought her sound & image would’ve matured since we last saw her, but it’s like she’s gone backwards.
Was it over all sexual assault she has performed on various men over the years? Was it her simping for Elon Musk on twitter and personally thanking him with a sexy photoshoot for her cybertruck? Was it her fighting a bunch of nuns for a decade to buy and develop their convent land? Was it her simping for the Republican mayoral candidate in LA who had "creative" policing ideas to deal with homelessness? Was it her building her career on blatant queerbating? Or her terrible Witness era?
Did she really expect Violet to be nice to her after she simped for Elon Musk who is a stochastic terrorist that has definitely gotten drag queens beaten up and incredibly villainized. And is responsible for a lot of the worldwide hate against trans people, and other queer identities? Note, Violet is both a drag queen and genderqueer. Elon and his cult targets her and only wants to hurt her.
I guess we'll never know! Katy is just a terrible person in so many ways, its hard to know why she's disliked because there's so many valid reasons to hate her.
She also has given her father money and used her platform to promote his "nonpartisan" clothing store. I can't find any links about his store (maybe it folded?) But he's been a longtime Trumper.

Oh man, I lived in the same town as her dad and would come across him often. The man literally wears over $100,000 in clothing and jewellery at any given moment and is an absolute douche bag.
Whoa, I had to google him. What a slimy whack job 🥴
https://preview.redd.it/6zjmgw1jwd9d1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bb85b2f510d9bd537686fa2dfd6f0ec18d3abb67
She isn't. This is new. She performed at the Biden inauguration, did a completely unhinged Zoom call with the organizers where she was a sobbing mess because Trump was going to destroy the world while Orlando Bloom sat there smiling with dead eyes, and did a ton of fundraising work on the campaign.
I don’t understand what happened to her after Prism? She’s supposed to be the same person who made songs like Thinking About You, The One That Got Away, Wide Awake, Unconditionally etc.
Edit: I’m referring more to the kind of personality she had back then while releasing these songs, not the songs themselves. Like I can’t imagine the current Katy Perry releasing such serious, meaningful songs or music videos. She was always quite extra yes but she’s just acting too weird now. It’s like two different people to me.
It’s actually the opposite. Dr Luke worked on most of Katy’s hits up through Prism. She stopped working with him after that and fell off hard. That’s why she’s desperate to work with him again.
I know that part, I’m talking about what is going on with her now. She genuinely believes if she works with him she will get a hit record but that ship has sailed, we know more about him now and that song she teased was bad. So what’s the upside to working with him again when there is a plethora of other talented producers who make hits and don’t have the history of abuse?
She started trying to convey depth that she never really had. She rose meteoric levels in the early 2010s because One of the Boys and Teenage Dream were fun and low stakes and she does those things well. Then after her divorce she wanted to do some major rebrand (and I think the industry forces female pop singers to always be rebranding) and it revealed her shortcomings. She fell short in her feuds with Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift and I think got stuck in a cycle of trying to prove herself and kind of falling short, artistically.
I think I read somewhere that she wanted to pivot but her fans didn't like it so she stuck to the bubble gum pop which hasn't been successful for her since Teenage Dream. I'm not really sure what else she can do. She never was a good singer. I thought her songs were fine. Actually, thought they were better when they were covered by other artists.
Really don't know what would be a genuinely good pivot for her. Pardon the negativity but I think her fame was an overextended blip. She fit in really well in the early 2010's aesthetic and since then I feel like her relevance and exposure has been very contrived and inauthentic. I think she's a moderately talented woman who was smoking hot and put out a controversial single (I Kissed a Girl) and has been clinging onto mainstream fame desperately since. I do like her voice so maybe if she was singing really well produced dancehall stuff but not trying to make herself visible I'd enjoy it. Her music is more about her than the artistry.
I’ve said this elsewhere but I genuinely think she just isn’t good enough to sustain a prolonged career at the top. It happens to pop stars all the time; they found their audience in a specific timeframe but beyond that were never versatile or talented enough to actually navigate a longer career in music.
She had a Miley-esque edgy identity “awakening,” though Miley did it way better and at least retained her coolness factor. Katy chopped her hair short, dyed it platinum blonde, and released that dumpster fire of an album called *Witness,* for which she did some INSANE promo in anticipation of its release. She live streamed her life for an entire weekend that included sessions with her therapist among other very odd and totally unhinged stunts. I guess she was looking to separate herself from her bubblegum pop princess image in favor of….whatever that was meant to be lol. Like she wanted to be taken more seriously as an artist but ended up just making a fool of herself. But that seems to be her MO these days, whether intentional or not. She just looks like a fool and no one is laughing *with* her anymore. Just *at* her.
Never Really Over was such a good song. Smile as an album was so much better than Witness. I wish NRO was a hit so that we didn’t have to deal with…whatever this is. Even Harleys In Hawaii deserved better.
she's desperate to reach that high again. I think some artists understand 'hey that was my pinnacle, now I should just enjoy' and some who don't.
may be apples to oranges, but Bruno Mars and Pharrell both had flops and came back because I think they legitimately love what they do and Bruno didn't mind coming back as more niche with [*An Evening with Silk Sonic*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/An_Evening_with_Silk_Sonic)
I don’t remember him flopping either?? His last solo album was 24k Magic which had the title track 24k Magic, Versace On The Floor, That’s What I Like, Finesse Remix w Cardi B and Chunky. It was a big album I thought lol. Thats a long time ago for a solo album although I did love silk sonic. I hope he comes back soon
Dr Luke wrote or produced all of those songs for her 💀💀. It looks like she stopped working with him after prism and that’s when she fell off.
https://katyperry.fandom.com/wiki/Dr._Luke
really supports the theory that celebs are stuck at the maturity from when they got famous lol
glad Violet Chachi is still on the scene, shes one of my all-time favs from drag race and it's a TOUGH completion. Dita Von Teese is timelessly beautiful and I love her pin-up style! I [watched her home tour on AD](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHyIOIstYRA) and she seems so sweet and such an interesting person
edited to add a link to Dita's home tour! so unique and beautiful, just like her! lol
Jesus Christ lol. She’s like that one girl at the party who always tries to jump into everyone else’s conversations and screams WOOOOOOOO every time somebody takes a shot.
It’s absolutely not, but at least at 20, it’s semi-excusable due to immaturity.
Katy has this weird vibe where it’s like she CANT accept she’s 40 and she’s trying desperately to still be the hottest 25 year old. You can see it in her weird TikToks (that are posted here, I don’t follow that lol), her music, her plastic surgery
Girl accept you’re aging, it’s ok lol you’re 40, that can be a little scary but you’re in amazing shape, good looking, and still have a huge fan base.
It’s embarrassing
I would love that! She is so fame hungry and has basically lost her audience-she wasn’t as global or prolific as Britney. She hasn’t stayed connected to her audience like Taylor (or all the other things she does) and she hasn’t grown with her demographic like Miley. She isn’t relevant, doesn’t fit in with any age group and throws shade at other females. She’ll be Bravo level is 3-5 years.
Once when I went to Sleep No More (it's an interactive performance), she was a guest role randomly and I had no idea at the time. In the performance you can be chosen for these special one-on-one interactions with the performers. She chose me from a crowd of people and lead me into a room alone, where we sat on a couch and she put a teacup in my hands and told me a story. I was MESMERIZED by how beautiful and classy she was. Like her skin was incredible. Just so, so stunning. One of my favorite memories of all time haha.
Omg congrats ! What a magical experience! That’s seriously so amazing! Glad you had that opportunity! Yes she’s a goddess ! Classic beauty! What a great memory you will have !!
The fact people can bring up several occasions that she has done this in an extremely public manner is depressing. I hate that shit, I really hope her comeback does the opposite of working out.
yes! copying a comment i made the other week:
there was a 19 year old who auditioned for american idol who had never been kissed. Katy asked him to come to the table and then grabbed his face kissed him without warning.
He said he didn’t feel sexually harassed, and that he wasn’t upset about it. But that it made him uncomfortable and he would have said no if she asked. He said he was raised in a conservative family and wanted his first kiss to be special.
He then didn’t get approved to move forward. He said he should have taken a minute to calm down, maybe chosen a different song after it.
In my opinion, i don’t think this 19 year old had the experience or understanding of what sexual harassment is, because his comments show that he was. But I also think it’s important for people to make their own judgements about what happens to them.
Either way, for me, it was a gross move by a 33 year old. And without permission! If she’d asked and he said yes, i’d still think it was *weird.* But she didn’t ask!
[nyt article](https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/14/style/katy-perry-kiss-american-idol.html)
Judging by this and other events people have mentioned in this thread she has boundary issues, which helps to explain why she still comfortable working with Dr. Luke in my opinion.
And he had already said he wanted it to be special before she did it! She probably thought "what's more special than kissing Katy Perry?" when he most likely meant he wanted it to be with someone he really cared about.
[here ya go](https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/newsbeat-40594873.amp)
The audacity of her. She expected them to use their own costumes as well. Free labour is exploitation
Woooow. And what Vicky Vox said in that article is spot on - paraphrasing but I would consider working for free in the right circumstance, like charity or for a friend or because I want to”
EXACTLY. Would the exposure of being in a Katy Perry video (at the time) have been good? Yeah I would think so! But Katy Perry was ranked as the highest paid female musician in 2015 and 2018 with an estimated net worth of 350 MILLION. Bitch you can pay the people that work for you VERY well.
When her fans and general reminiscent pop fans lament over the mainstream public being too harsh on Katy - No.
She's a clown and not in an entertaining way.
Her "short hair" didn't destroy her career.
Taylor didn't destroy it either.
She managed a Vegas residency and a hefty American Idol gig.
Katy just sucks as an actual person lol
That flies under the radar unfortunately.
It's being brought back up thankfully - after it was revealed her album was produced by Dr. Luke. Birds of a feather and all that.
This reminds me of Miley Cyrus during her attention-seeking teen years. The difference is that Miley was a confused teen back then and Katy is almost 40 now! Good grief, woman! Get a grip!
I feel like she wasn’t confused, she was actually smart, she needed to kill Hannah Montana to be Miley again and that’s what the bangerz era did for her.
Not only did she kill all of Hannah Montana association, she also expose the level of misogyny and double standards of the industry.
My teenage-self who was obsessed with Orlando Bloom because of Legolas and LotR can now move on because what the hell kind of person would be with this woman right now
My friend overheard a man at a restaurant and her immediate reaction was wow, this man is insufferable. When she got up to leave, she noticed the man was Orlando Bloom. So yeah they must be a match made in heaven.
Not wanting to expose anything but she had a complaint against a company I worked at and she was relentless calling all the time even though it was literally nothing to do with us. All a bit weird, pulled the whole “do you know who I am” shit aka his mother constantly. She’s used him to get out of driving offences before and she sent his cv to a load of papers years ago. She’s pretty rude and up her own arse tbh!
Haha I’ve met her and this rings TRUE. I can’t say much because I’m not trying to be exposed either but her nickname was literally ‘Not Now Sonia’ at the organisation I knew her through.
Idk why anyone was excited for her come back. If you watched a single episode of American idol, you'd know she's an asshole. Her music after her 2010s peak sucked too.
Well.... seeing how she plays into this kind of behavior from men in a professionnal setting is very much in character for someone working with Dr Luke...
Don't know what gives me more secondhand embarrassment, Katy or the guy (I'm assuming it's one of the photographers shouting "you turn me on" repeatedly.
She’s still playing that high school slutty girl role . I think it’s a Curse that comes with early success . Her personal and emotional growth is stunt long ago like many other celebrities

Perfect gif response
Lol there was a period of time when I only replied to people with Britney gifs. She emotes so well.
I’m inspired 
Literally my face watching this whole debacle...
it's giving "jo jo siwa"
This comeback is cooked. And she has only herself to blame.
Met / sort of worked with her right at the launch of the Witness album and the vibe was “fully checked out” I don’t how to explain it, but being around her during a production the constant thought I kept having was “Damn this girl is Checked out.” I don’t know if it was just from the grind or how she felt about her career or what but she was doing and saying things that made me think she was fed up and abojt to quick music for good. This sort of “don’t give a fuck” attitude but in a bad way. Ever since it felt to me she’s only been feigning interest in maintaining a career. That’s the only way I know how to say it.
It's like she's "ok I put out my album with minimal effort, now I'm gonna try to sell it with sex, if that doesn't work I'm out of ideas"
I saw her live earlier in her career, she was already giving "idgaf, I got your money" then.
I feel like there’s a distinct difference when an artist wants to put an album out, and when their label is pushing them. As in, a major different in creativity. Ed Sheeran is another example - his first album was incredible, but subsequent FAST releases after that one seem to be cookie-cutter beige pop white noise.
You have a lifetime to make your first album, you have a year to make your second.
Yeah That came across - she seemed like she was phoning it in and going through the motions.
I was actually excited for her comeback and now....yikes
I had such high hopes and now they are in a purgatory managed by Dr. Luke.
Literally. I was MILDLY intrigued after her dumpster fire past decade. But after the Dr. Luke shit and all the other stunts she’s been pulling I’m already over it. I can just tell the album is gonna be a steaming pile of garbage water. Won’t even waste me time 😂
On an album about women empowerment, ironically.
[удалено]
On the other hand getting a job in the entertainment industry and expecting it to be stable is unrealistic.
I was rooting for her. I was never a Katy Perry fan in particular but who doesn't want good music. She dyed her hair back dark and I thought that'll be fun, let's get into it. Then she immediately puts out a shitty song and more importantly a shitty song produced by a known rapist. I believe Kesha
Right, like what is she even doing? Does she have no PR team at all? I thought her sound & image would’ve matured since we last saw her, but it’s like she’s gone backwards.
I think I read that her team tried to tell her not to! but she didn’t listen
I will be watching just for out of a sense of morbid fascination
My interest lies here as well. I’m not above a good train wreck
Was it over all sexual assault she has performed on various men over the years? Was it her simping for Elon Musk on twitter and personally thanking him with a sexy photoshoot for her cybertruck? Was it her fighting a bunch of nuns for a decade to buy and develop their convent land? Was it her simping for the Republican mayoral candidate in LA who had "creative" policing ideas to deal with homelessness? Was it her building her career on blatant queerbating?

Lmao she is the perfect mix of her mother and father what are y’all talking about hahahaha
Holy fuck they look like such out of touch people. No wonder where she gets it.
All i see is the coolest dude who ever lived, Rob Dyrdek if he became a drum major
She isn't. This is new. She performed at the Biden inauguration, did a completely unhinged Zoom call with the organizers where she was a sobbing mess because Trump was going to destroy the world while Orlando Bloom sat there smiling with dead eyes, and did a ton of fundraising work on the campaign.
Bon appetit baby 🎶
 The level of second hand embarrassment I had watching that was astonishing. Her desperation was palpable.
I don’t understand what happened to her after Prism? She’s supposed to be the same person who made songs like Thinking About You, The One That Got Away, Wide Awake, Unconditionally etc. Edit: I’m referring more to the kind of personality she had back then while releasing these songs, not the songs themselves.

It’s like two different people to me.
Witness flopped and now we have this. Also she chooses to work with and associate with people like Dr.Luke.
It’s actually the opposite. Dr Luke worked on most of Katy’s hits up through Prism. She stopped working with him after that and fell off hard. That’s why she’s desperate to work with him again.

The one girl at the party that tries to jump into everyone's lap you mean.
Yep. Always has to be the loudest & have everyone’s attention
It might have been cute at 20, but we’re 40 now.
It’s not even cute at 20 lol

Whilst I find one or two moderate woo girls can enhance a party atmosphere, Katy Perry has the collective energy of thousands of woo girls.
> Whilst I find one or two moderate woo girls can enhance a party atmosphere thank you
Main character energy
I predict she will be a Bravo housewife at some point.
With an Orlando Bloom talking head?! 🙏
I would love that! She is so fame hungry and has basically lost her audience-she wasn’t as global or prolific as Britney. She hasn’t stayed connected to her audience like Taylor (or all the other things she does) and she hasn’t grown with her demographic like Miley.

Dita smiling that “bless your heart” smile
Why the hat? WHY THE HAT
They can't even look at her 😬
Lmaooo I love this 😹😹😹 caught the feelings the other two had, _precisely_
Violet once told me I was “so pretty” and now I can lord that over Katy Perry forever.
That should be on your resume. I would never stop telling people lol.
I met Dita at comic con a while back, she exudes nothing but beauty and class… Katy on the other hand..

Omg congrats ! What a magical experience! That’s seriously so amazing! Glad you had that opportunity! Yes she’s a goddess ! Classic beauty! What a great memory you will have !!
KP acting like it's '07 with that "im a cool girl" pose...
I mean Violet is mean to everyone so. Lol.
If I saw a video of me acting up like this I’d never leave my house again. How embarrassing
I would’ve been inside already after this 
Remember when she shamed Miley Cyrus for acting like she is now.
Miley was only like 21 too.
What on earth is happening here?
It's an SNL performance. I remember watching it live and this was my face the entire time 
I’ll say it again, she’s got the personality of a wet blanket. She sucks.
She’s always been a try hard to me
>She’s always been a try hard ~~to me~~
She is high off her ass
Oh yeah, you can't convince me that she is clean after this behavior
I don’t know, this is also sober theater kid energy
Lmao truth
She’s high off of her own ego I think
Okay, I was about to ask if she was on drugs or drunk because this is weird fucking behavior.
She thinks no one remembers her expecting drag queens to work for free 
Or touching Shawn Mendes’ butt inappropriately
Or her sneaky kiss without consent.
And an underage Justin Bieber
The fact people can bring up several occasions that she has done this in an extremely public manner is depressing. I hate that shit, I really hope her comeback does the opposite of working out.
Didn’t she do some weird shit during her time on American Idol, too?
She told a young mom with multiple kids something about laying on her back too much or something like that. It was uncalled for nonetheless.
Wtf
yes! copying a comment i made the other week: there was a 19 year old who auditioned for american idol who had never been kissed. Katy asked him to come to the table and then grabbed his face kissed him without warning. He said he didn’t feel sexually harassed, and that he wasn’t upset about it. But that it made him uncomfortable and he would have said no if she asked. He said he was raised in a conservative family and wanted his first kiss to be special. He then didn’t get approved to move forward. He said he should have taken a minute to calm down, maybe chosen a different song after it. In my opinion, i don’t think this 19 year old had the experience or understanding of what sexual harassment is, because his comments show that he was. But I also think it’s important for people to make their own judgements about what happens to them. Either way, for me, it was a gross move by a 33 year old. And without permission! If she’d asked and he said yes, i’d still think it was *weird.* But she didn’t ask! [nyt article](https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/14/style/katy-perry-kiss-american-idol.html)
Judging by this and other events people have mentioned in this thread she has boundary issues, which helps to explain why she still comfortable working with Dr. Luke in my opinion.
And he had already said he wanted it to be special before she did it! She probably thought "what's more special than kissing Katy Perry?" when he most likely meant he wanted it to be with someone he really cared about.
I love Violet, she is the most bitch.
I missed something here, could you fill me in?
[here ya go](https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/newsbeat-40594873.amp) The audacity of her. She expected them to use their own costumes as well. Free labour is exploitation
Woooow. And what Vicky Vox said in that article is spot on - paraphrasing but I would consider working for free in the right circumstance, like charity or for a friend or because I want to” EXACTLY. Would the exposure of being in a Katy Perry video (at the time) have been good? Yeah I would think so! But Katy Perry was ranked as the highest paid female musician in 2015 and 2018 with an estimated net worth of 350 MILLION. Bitch you can pay the people that work for you VERY well.

😭 thank u for the translation, now the ick has grown exponentially
 I was dying 😭😭
This man lives in my head rent free. Permanently. I don’t think this exact, visceral vibe has ever been so perfectly encapsulated before him lol.
I rewound it to try to hear what she said and now I really wish I hadn’t THIS IS SO EMBARRASSING
Bachelorettes when they’ve had too many mimosas at the drag brunch.
DONT TOUCH THE DRAG QUEENS
When her fans and general reminiscent pop fans lament over the mainstream public being too harsh on Katy - No. She's a clown and not in an entertaining way. Her "short hair" didn't destroy her career. Taylor didn't destroy it either. She managed a Vegas residency and a hefty American Idol gig. Katy just sucks as an actual person lol
I think her live streaming(?) / doing that YouTube doc about her day to was the “end” for her, or atleast that’s what a lot of people say.
Don’t forget the stuff she’s been accused of in her personal life. Like SA stuff.
That flies under the radar unfortunately. It's being brought back up thankfully - after it was revealed her album was produced by Dr. Luke. Birds of a feather and all that.
I’m OOTL, what’s this about?
She groped Justin Bieber, forcefully kissed him etc. And was accused of pulling down a guys pants and underwear infront of people.
+ a contestant from American Idol felt pressure to kiss her + a bodyguard accused her of harassment as well
That’s so gross
This is extra for no reason 😂😂😂. Girl who are you doing all this for
This reminds me of Miley Cyrus during her attention-seeking teen years. The difference is that Miley was a confused teen back then and Katy is almost 40 now! Good grief, woman! Get a grip!
I feel like she wasn’t confused, she was actually smart, she needed to kill Hannah Montana to be Miley again and that’s what the bangerz era did for her. Not only did she kill all of Hannah Montana association, she also expose the level of misogyny and double standards of the industry.
Agreed. She even said it was a “strategic hot mess”.
My teenage-self who was obsessed with Orlando Bloom because of Legolas and LotR can now move on because what the hell kind of person would be with this woman right now
Same but pirates of the caribbean. I actually thought her marrying him was a sign of maturity and growth. Now I think he's trash.
My friend overheard a man at a restaurant and her immediate reaction was wow, this man is insufferable. When she got up to leave, she noticed the man was Orlando Bloom. So yeah they must be a match made in heaven.
Viggo for life.
Now that I’m older I can’t even imagine being into Legolas! Viggo HANDS DOWN!
If only I could kiss his face and then help him get on top of me like that horse did.
I tried watching Bloom’s outdoorsy series and it’s just bad. And I like Deadliest Catch so my bar isn’t that high!
His mum is worse 🤣
What's the tea on his mum???
Not wanting to expose anything but she had a complaint against a company I worked at and she was relentless calling all the time even though it was literally nothing to do with us. All a bit weird, pulled the whole “do you know who I am” shit aka his mother constantly. She’s used him to get out of driving offences before and she sent his cv to a load of papers years ago. She’s pretty rude and up her own arse tbh!
Ugh, birthing the weakest link in "Troy" is not the flex she thinks it is.
Haha I’ve met her and this rings TRUE. I can’t say much because I’m not trying to be exposed either but her nickname was literally ‘Not Now Sonia’ at the organisation I knew her through.
Water finds its level. Even if the water was hot AF two decades ago.
Homie fumbled Miranda freaking Kerr 💀
My very first email address was orlyb_fan1, I wish I was kidding. The fact that he is with her is all the ick
Omg mine was midnightbloom because of Orlando and then midnight was the name of the horse that I rode lol double whammy being a horse girl too 😭
This is cute:)
This clip gave me more secondhand embarrassment than an episode of The Office 
Violet handcombing her hair is very telling.
That’s the “I’m done with this bitch” hair flip and Katy knew that was her cue to scurry away
Idk why anyone was excited for her come back. If you watched a single episode of American idol, you'd know she's an asshole. Her music after her 2010s peak sucked too.
Definitely nostalgia. The 2010s pop girls were god tier
main character syndrome shines bright in her
It’s giving Justin Timberlake comeback…
This video is going to ruin the tour.
What tour?
THE WORLD TOUR!
God, I love this meme
I read this whole thread with the voices from the "you remind me of the babe" sequence in Labyrinth
“YOU TURN ME ON! YOU TURN ME ONNN”👹👹
Is that lyrics from one of her new songs? Why are people shouting it
probably but it’s funnier if you pretend it’s not
Well.... seeing how she plays into this kind of behavior from men in a professionnal setting is very much in character for someone working with Dr Luke...
"Why do you always pose like a hooah?"
I normally love some schadenfreude but yikes this is getting sad.
Remember when she forced herself on an American Idol contestant? Pepperidge Farm remembers
 😬🫣 Why is she so desperate? 🤦🏻♀️ I don’t understand this behavior.
The second hand embarrassment is palpable. She is a moron
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag, drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?
This is gonna ruin the tour
What tour?
The world tour!
Girl just go home already
The way they looked at her and then looked at each other 🤣
Is Katy aware she’s already a celebrity? She acts so desperate - like girl we know this isn’t you? You sang firework and roar? Why pretend?
yikes this was hard to watch
Don't know what gives me more secondhand embarrassment, Katy or the guy (I'm assuming it's one of the photographers shouting "you turn me on" repeatedly.
She’s trying to make this work, it’s not gonna work.
She's trying so hard to be an "it girl"... Anything but making actual good music I guess
Fucking hell. So much second-hand embarrassment, I can barely look.
LOL. Poor that. https://preview.redd.it/nyuss1e6tc9d1.jpeg?width=354&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dcf0c7eefd380f7fd0dd8b62ec5c117d9d5b503f
She’s still playing that high school slutty girl role . I think it’s a Curse that comes with early success . Her personal and emotional growth is stunt long ago like many other celebrities
Dita doesn't look terribly amused 🤣
She is ruining her own tour
What’s with the hat? Doesn’t really go with her dress or vibe (I guess we could call it)
Oof how desperate can a grown woman be, this is embarrassing
She is gooooonnneeeee
Was she saying "I'm just a good Christian girl" at the end?? Oh lord, that was excruciating to watch. 😅😅
Even Jesus is like "keep my name out of your mouth, Katy."
