Maybe it’s not worth getting so upset about Katy Perry, a scripted micro-managed fraud of a personality, singing a gay taunt song for an audience at her old high school. Because even she acknowledges you don’t have to take her seriously.
“I mean, come on. I’ve got a whipped cream bra!,” she tells CBS Sunday Morning‘s Anthony Mason, who tags along with the pop singer as she shows off what it means to be famous. “It’s not like I’m Carole King here. Although, I admire Carole King, I don’t want to be the indie darling, because the indie darling means nobody’s heard of you before.”
And now that everybody has heard of you? You use your fame irresponsibly.

“The indie darling means nobody’s heard of you before.”
What a vapid little clown.

The only places I keep hearing about Katy Perry is on gay blogs. If it weren’t for Queery, etc., I would have forgotten about her a long time ago.

What is she talking about? Carole King’s album Tapestry alone has sold 25 million copies, several times what Katy Perry has sold altogether. What an idiot.

To summarize, “I don’t want to be smart. Smart people are stupid.”

She’d be nice for a cute little one-time come dump.
Jesus
Damn dude did she write a bitchy song about you or something? What did this really have to do with anything? use your energy a little more productively. I’d rather this be a blog about things important in the gay community. This is just a pissed off version of Enterainment Tonight

@Jamie: Owned.
It’s a shame I actually like California Gurls and Teenage Dream, but this trick really needs to shut up.
This is why celebs should just focus on entertainment and leave public speaking to the professionals.

Leave Katy alone. Go back to attacking people who deserve it like fundamentalist Christian preaches who coerce young guys into sex.

Fortunately, in five years no one will have heard of her.

Everytime Perry opens her mouth more air comes out.Pretty sure if someone blew in her ear she would just respond with: Thanks for the refill! 🙂

Honey, we know you’re a joke. We knew the first time we heard you sing….

This vapid, talentless bimbo is what passes for celebrity today.
hephaestion
Who is Katy Perry?
And why is such a dumb bimbo of interest to The Gays?

She cant sing!!!
Chris
@Jesus: I totally agree… and since when is being able to sing a requirement? She’s obviously famous for a reason you bitchy old queens.
SpiffyShindigs
Has she ever pretended to be serious? Her music’s catchy, and that’s good enough for me. I expect very little from her, and ergo I’m not disappointed.

Oops, I didn’t realize it was mandatory that every pop singer be devoted solely to promoting equality. On the other hand, I have to agree with Michael C. – if the gays would stop talking about her instead of constantly publicizing her, we could forget her that much sooner.
I bought her first CD, and I’ll never buy another. It’s like the woman has two catchy singles in her per album, and the rest are not worth hearing. She doesn’t have a good voice (listen to her sing a ballad, but purchase cotton balls first to clean up after the ear bleeds), but she does write some catchy songs. Unfortunately, she really does have a mediocre average – one out of every five songs she releases are good, and that’s listening only to the ones she records for release. Even Gwen Stefani has a better average than that, and she’s got a voice I actually like to listen to.
Michael
@Michael C.: Honestly, I had never heard of her before watching parody videos here.

I hate this bitch with a passion.
I think Queerty is trying to right some wrongs and prevent the gays from adopting her and turning her into a pop idol.
When there are so many actual gay icons and progressive individuals with great music, there is absolutely no need to back this talentless two-faced hack.

I knew this girl was a bigoted fundie when she BLASTED Lady Gaga’s “Alejandro” video. Literally tore Gaga apart and said in a public statement how it offended religion on various contexts. THAT’S when I put 2 and 2 together and realized this girls a religious zealot in a disco costume trying to profit off of gays, but when you really examine her and her music she is about as far gay friendly as one can get. My whole thing is, be you. Don’t be decieving with your brand. The amazing thing is her new video with Elmo isn’t exactly very appropriate either. I’d LOVE Gaga to make a comment and say “as a tickle me Elmo fan, I felt Perry’s video offended Elmo fans on various contexts”
Christian
Yet people still support the pretentious “gay rights” puppet Lady Gaga who is riding the equality wave all the way to the bank.. Funny.
dan
damn you guys bitch so much about stupid things. let katy be her. i love her and her music is okay.
ilse
I don’t like her just because she know she is pretty and thinks to much of herself. She must just realize its not always just about looks and that smurfs dress she had on is really pretty but its to shor.

Come onnnnn. The gay “community” LOVED her when she was making mindless, ridiculous dance music for them.. Get over it. This is America, and every stupid biotch like Ms. Perry IS entiteled to have an opinon, even if, GOD FORBID, it goes against anything YOU like. You’re starting to act like the uptight, holier-than-thou aye holes you’re seeking “freedom” from… Get a thicker skin so worthless asses like this one won’t bother you.
