Katy Perry is BACK with a new song!!!!

I know. And it sucks.

I thought we were done with this big-boobied bimbo.

She is a bit long in the tooth to pull off these looks

Bottom music.

Great summer bop.

It sounds exactly like Lady Gaga’s “Stupid Love”.

Mess.

When is this homophobe going to get breast cancer?

Her skull doesn't look as lightbulb-ish as before. Did she have a cranial reduction?

The music sucks and the video is a mess. The visuals are very right wing themed despite it being pro-feminism (?) and they randomly threw in kissing gays. Not to mention she pissed a lot of people off by working with Dr. Luke, who sexually assaulted Kesha.

A voice like a foghorn.

Classic Katy Perry - she looks great and her body is banging.

Good for her.

R11 = Katy Perry

[quote]Not to mention she pissed a lot of people off by working with Dr. Luke, who sexually assaulted Kesha.

Or that whole convent business, or voting for Caruso and bragging about it from the ballot box. She's just the worst.

Ozempic® body can't hide the sags of age - ✅

Megan Fox face treatment - ✅

Huge boobs and oddly fleshy ass, exposed in skank gear - ✅

Whore's platform boots - ✅

A bit catchy & upbeat power pop - ✅

Formulaic garbage.

Trivia - Trisha Paytas's daughter is named Malibu Barbie and her son is named Elvis.

everyone is blasting her for working with doctor rape. washed up skank.

Not a good commercial for feminism.

Yeah, she’s not escaping the Dr. Luke thing.

Funniest thing I’ve seen is people calling her “Charli CVS.”

She needs to go the way of the DoDo.

She sucks.

Katy: PLEASE stop foisting your mediocre, horrible music upon us. As well as your saggy ass tits.

Thanks.

This might have sounded fresh 20 years ago.

The hook is weak as fuck. She looks great but it sounds like a filler track on an early 2010s album.

Queen Bey did it better.

It’s hilarious that she expects this to be a hit

Nobody asked for this.

She’s too old. Go away.

Unlike her peers (Gaga, Taylor, Bey and Rihanna), Katy never had a big enough personality to get through the lulls in her career. Which is why she is C list while the other four are all A list still.

She needed this song to be a big, catchy pop song like her glory days.

And instead she gave us a very basic, very generic, "women's anthem" that feels at least a decade behind the times. The lyrics are cringey even for a pop song. The chorus has no hook. There's not even a cool bridge. It didn't even do the pop tropes correctly.

(As someone said, it's a complete Stupid Love ripoff. And if you're going to ripoff a Gaga song, why in the hell would you pick that one?)

Feminist anthem (produced by a male rapist) that has a porny music video with big jiggling tits. Does she have any self-awareness whatsoever.

That's the perfect formula for someone who wants to deliberately sabotage their career NOT make a comeback.

R27 I def wouldn’t call her C list. She had too many hit records and was a judge on American Idil. Music wise she has been more consistent than Gaga, success wise. It’s just that when Gaga was huge she was HUGE and her popularity in Europe didn’t dry up as quick as it did in America. But Gaga is such a personna and she can act. Bey and Rih have been most consistent with success on the chart for nearly 20 years. Hell Bey is approaching 30 yrs.

R27 She’s always smoke and mirrors. She was no doubt driven by payola and radio deals from back then.

One thing Katy never had was album sales. Her highest first week is 286k. With all her number one singles and publicity, that’s the most she’s ever sold in a week. That was in 2013 with the “Prism” album with the inescapable “Roar” as the lead single.

You can’t compare her to the female artists who’ve done 500k-1 million first week. She’s never been in that league.

She’s very much like Rihanna. They had winning streaks on the radio during everyone else’s downtime and once they left the radio and took breaks, they were easily and quickly replaced with others.

Katy Perry really is like the 00s/10s version of Paula Abdul, minus the dancing. She is just as much of a joke and her music is just as disposable. Both women had about 5 good years in them and just crashed. And don't forget Katy also took over the role of the non-singer judge on American Idol.

R29 Rihanna had 10 years. 2006-2016.

And similar to Katy, she couldn’t sell an album or a ticket.

That’s why she doesn’t want to record music anymore because she probably associates it with being broke.

There’s a whole article about how she’d have to tour to pay off the last tour because they were all failures.

Her and Katy could get everyone to buy 99 cent singles, not $10 albums or $50-100 concert tickets.

only after suffering that crap do i have a smidge of respect for taylor swift

who's the black chick?

Most artists these days aren't Adele or Taylor who can still sell albums. When Katy and Rihanna were at their peak, it was all about digital singles, which made the album concept kind of secondary. I wouldn't say either were C-list at their peak, they were definitely A list. The music market is just so drastically different than what it was through the late 90s.

R32, don't forget Rihanna is still massive. She is in the top 10 of most streamed Spotify artists. And she hasn't even released any new material since Anti. That's the sign of someone with longevity. She handily outstreams Beyonce despite the fact that the latter has released three or so albums since Anti dropped.

katy's now the joe biden of music videos

It sounds like a mish mash of moderate 1980s hits, which makes it sound extremely generic in spite of the ultra-polished production. In addition, we all know that Kathy cannot sing the song live (in terms of singing talent, she is down there with Britney, Madonna, Ciara, Taylor Swift and Rihanna), which makes the idea of wasting money on her music feel like an absurdity.

Finally, this is meant to be a video that celebrates female empowerment and yet, all she does is parade around shaking her boobs and arse? How is that empowering? Moreover, this woman is almost forty - shouldn't she have something more substantial to offer at this point in time?

And sorry R23, but both songs are equally awful. The only difference is that Kathy's is bland and generic, whereas Beyoncé's is just cacophonous. The sad thing is that Beyoncé is a good singer, so she ought to be releasing MUCH better material than what constitutes 90% of her awful repertoire, and shouldn't be resorting to the overused promotional gimmick 'I act like a total whore to get male attention and that is SO empowering!'. You expect this from musical non-entities like Kathy, but if a proper singer does this, it's downright shameful.

beyonce SHOULD have list of fabulous and musical pop hits but she was ruined by uneducated stupid folks who control her.

I feel so empowered!!!!!

R34 Yes and no. They have more #1 hits than any of the big artists mentioned.

They had a lot of chart manipulation and payola going on.

In the late 2000s they used to have open radio deals where they’d spin a single every hour with pop radio stations the first weekend and etc.

People have recently started taking notice of “industry plants”. Gen Z spots them now and calls them out. Like Ice Spice and Sabrina Carpenter.

They’re doing it on Spotify now with auto play.

This smells like a flop. I feel sorry for her - I like her. Well, at least she still gets to fcuk Orlando Bloom.

She's reached the "elder millennial wine mom trying to look cool" phase of her career.

At this point, the music doesn’t matter. She is on the list of people who Big Brother has instructed everyone to hate, point and laugh at, so until she takes care of that, she won’t see success in music again. The song isn’t very good, but it’s somewhat catchy and she looks hot and it’s certainly no worse than any of the other songs currently on the pop landscape.

Rihanna simply put out her last album in 2016. She has still had hits since then. And Rihanna’s first hit single was the summer of 2005. When an artist stops making music by choice but is still relevant I don’t consider that a flop

Black Panther soundtrack

[quote] She’s very much like Rihanna

Umm bitch what? No sweetie R30 Katy 'boobs' Perry is absolutely nothing like one of the biggest selling chart toppers of all time. Is Katy breaking anybody's records? Is Does she have the luxury of taking years between albums and still rack up over 1 billion streams? You better do your research.

[quote] That’s why she doesn’t want to record music anymore because she probably associates it with being broke.

No bitch its not that she doesn't want to she doesn't HAVE to if she doesn't want to. She's amassed one of the largest empires of a female popstar since Madonna. The most successful celebrity beauty brand of all time, 582 million annually, what more could you ask for? She can more than afford to lay around and smoke blunts all day while popping out as many out of wedlock babies as she wants. The bitch has earned it. You type fat R32.

R38 Because Beyonce is a rockstar and hip hop star; she ain’t about that middle brow top 40 shit. First of all she has plenty of top ten hits but Bey can do a whole album like a Springsteen or Pearl Jam with no huge top 40 hits and still move units and make a 500 mil tour. None of Bey’s Pop contemporaries could EVAH do this. Maybe Billie Ellish but she’s young enough to be Bey’s child.

[quote] Is Does she have the luxury

I'm just going to go ahead and Oh Dear! myself before anyone else does. I was typing to fast, but I still think I got my point across.

^Typing too fast.

The song is innocuous enough, but that video is just bizzare

Like compare the difference between Run the world and Woman’s world. Run the world is using afrobeats, world music, with hip hop verses and 4 part harmonies on the brigde, all over a Diplo dancehall sample. Bey will never be basic. The song was actually a flop in the states but it didn’t matter at that point her career. 4 still sold decent and is now considered an iconic r&b album. At any rate, Texas Hold ‘Em topped the charts in about 10 countries worldwide this year.

Blah blah blah, Stan at r50. That may all be true but STILL Beyonce does not have a list of likable and musical hits. It's all noises, bleeps, samples, yelps, concept, and pretension. Ask Joe or Jane Average on the street to sing the tune and lyrics of 3 Beyonce "hits". Go ahead, I'm waiting. Ask them to just hum a "melody" from a couple Beyonce songs.

Crickets.

[quote] That’s why she doesn’t want to record music anymore because she probably associates it with being broke.

LOL

R51 That’s true for most artists cunt

Crazy In Love. Irreplaceable. Halo. Texas Hold ‘Em. If I were a Boy. Drunk In Love.

Why was Bey one of the most covered artists on shows like American Idol and the X factor.

How many people can name more than 3 Davie Bowie, Springsteen, Prince, Aretha Franklin, Eric Clapton, Barbara Streisand, Sheryl Crow songs.

R40, really, Rihanna and Katy were big due to payola?

[quote] At this point, the music doesn’t matter.

It never did (for her). Just listen to her hits!

Waking Up in Vegas is her best song and a little underrated gem of a pop/rock song.

I'm not a fan, but Katy has outsold Gaga, Adele, Whitney, Barbra, Celine and Britney. That makes her a permanent A-list artist.

Highest certified pop girls worldwide and their amount of years in the music industry:

#1 Rihanna 372.4 million, 18 years

#2 Beyonce 320.8 million, 26 years

#3 Taylor Swift 303 million, 17 years

#4 Mariah Carey 223 million, 33 years

#5 Ariana Grande 203 million, 10 years

#6 Madonna 185.9 million, 40 years

#7 Katy Perry 179.4 million, 15 years

It's a woman's world but I still need to sell my song with tits and ass.

R57 you do realize those are 99 cents songs bought on iTunes. These things are relative because of industry changes. She has not outsold them in traditional album sells. Britney’s first album sold like 16 million copies alone. $15.99 ALBUMS bought at Sam Goody. Not singles purchased on Amazon and a bunch of streaming album equivalents. Btw with album equivalents even if the same song, ie the single, is streamed over and over it goes towards the albums sale(album equivalent).

R57, that’s fake and dreamed up by one of her fans.

This will be her third flop album in a row. She was done after her second album. That’s why she has to do game shows.

The song is the dollar store version of Lady Gaga’s “Stupid Love”. She’s being mocked everywhere. Working with an alleged rapist on a song called “Woman’s World” is hilarious. She’s seriously tone deaf.

R57 It’s likely real. But I do agree she is A list.

[quote] Most artists these days aren't Adele or Taylor who can still sell albums.

Adele is irrelevant today. She’s smartly doing a Vegas residency. There’s not much else for her. And don’t get me wrong, Vegas is now hip, but Adele’s music is no longer what the public wants. Grannies at the slots will happily see her though.

R32, Rihanna is a billionaire, running one of the biggest companies in the world. She doesn’t record music because she doesn’t have to. She’s set for life.

[quote] Or that whole convent business, or voting for Caruso and bragging about it from the ballot box. She's just the worst.

Hon, even progressives are no longer down on Caruso. The woman who beat him has been a dumpster fire. Caruso is what they needed but such is life just like Democrats are going with a senile old man who’s going to close his party the House, Senate, and Supreme Court, not to mention the presidency.

She looks great and the song is OK for a song trying to be a hymn but I'm tired of the women rule message.

R34 is actually correct.

Of those late 00s huge pop stars, Adele, Taylor, Gaga and Beyonce were the ones who actually sold a ton of albums. Rihanna and Katy were singles artists. Very successful ones of course.

Adele and Taylor can still sell albums. Gaga can at times - ASIB was huge, Chromatica was a decent hit. Beyonce does just fine. Not as good as the media would have you believe, but her album drops still feel like events. Rihanna checked out of the game (though she is still big in streaming - bigger than everyone but Taylor oddly enough).

And then we have poor, sweet, big tittied Katy. She does have American Idol money. So good for her.

[quote] It’s hilarious that she expects this to be a hit

She doesn’t care. She just wanted to show off her body-by-Ozempic. This is the thinnest she’s been her entire career.

Why is she nearly naked?

Because "feminists" like to use their boobs to control men.

R65

1) Rihanna is a billionaire on paper - her percentage and stock in her business.

2) Fenty is a success but it is FAR FAR FAR from "one of the biggest companies in the world." $600 million annual revenue.

Walmart has $600 BILLION annual revenue.

Hyperbole much?

I love Rihanna's success, and style and attitude, don't get me wrong.

Fenty is not one of the biggest companies in the world. I don’t think any makeup company it is. It is one of the top cosmetic companies for sure. Rihanna’s net worth is estimated at 1.4 billion $600 mil revenue is excellent for a cosmetic company with no physical stores. That along with its stock holdings make it a billion dollar company.

Rewatching this vid one thing about Beyonce. She never seemed like she was selling sex for the male gaze. In all her bare midriffs and onesies and showing ass and thighs she always owned it. Maybe because she dances so excellently and the lyrics are so pro-woman.

1-star review

Katy Perry: Woman’s World review – what regressive, warmed-over hell is this?

It was truly powerful watching her pissing in a urinal and then squeezing her tits together.

R78 It really is god awful. The hook is weak. Lyrics trite as fuck. Even the music is wack. Less infectious version of the music on her songs from yesteryear. FAIL.

Her piss poor choice in men doesn't help.

She sure is asking an awful lot of those boobs.

The Cut calls Katy Perry “a faded pop star frantically attempting to clamber back to relevance”

I know I am not her audience, but to me the muscled look is not attractive I think a softer looking woman is more attractive.

She is getting that Demi Moore hard look to her

R86 His assessment is actually spot on.

The most brilliant part of the video is when the Acme crane abruptly falls on Katy. The problem is the video continues for 2 more minutes.

R87, I agree, he really nailed what Katy was going for. It would have worked in 2012 but not now.

The irony of releasing a feminist song called "Woman's World" and it's produced by rapist Dr. Luke. She was just asking for every critic to trash it and her.

R89 Even in 2012 I woulda gave the same analysis. It just probably would have been a hit cause she was still poppin then. Rotten tomato it gets from me.

Taylor Swift will be 35 this year, I guess her immaturity has worked to her advantage. But then again Katy was shooting foam from her chest, a little harder to come back at 39 from that.

Katy never recovered from when she had the short blonde hair, it blew her sexy image.

Taylor Swift is an excellent pop songwriter and can play guitar. You may not like pop music, many of her songs are mind blowingly annoying but she is excellent at that. For every Shake it Off she has gem like Style or this. It’s Prince meets Dolly lol.

Whoever above who said that Katy Perry is the Paula Abdul of this generation deserves a DL Grammy. I’ve been saying that for years.

Katy is so much hotter than Taylor... now even more than before.

Hi, Katy Booby @ r96!

r96 to straight men she is too old. Ariana Grande better hope she is not sinking all her time into some flop movies, how long can she play the little girl role.

[quote]Waking Up in Vegas is her best song and a little underrated gem of a pop/rock song.—CandyManxxx

You’re wrong, CandyStanx, aka TeaFake. It’s “Teenage Dream”.

[quote]She sure is asking an awful lot of those boobs.

Those boobs are all she’s got.

“It’s a woman’s world and you’re lucky to be living in it”??

Shouldn’t this get her canceled by Big Tranny and accused of being a TERF?

R98 some of you boomers must think this is 1968. She is not too old for straight men. I don’t even think she’s 40 yet. Ain’t her Rihanna the same age. Rihanna is the same age as me. She still looks sexy as fuck. She has that going for her. And I agree with the poster above she is badder than Taylor looks wise.

And her titties look natural.

[quote][R40], really, Rihanna and Katy were big due to payola?

It’s Beyoncé and Mariah Carey who got big due to payola and chart manipulation by their husbands.

What a skank. Shouldn’t she be kissing Elon Musks ass on social media?

R58 A 3rd wave feminist might argue well men use their cocks and physical prowess white not a woman using her looks.

R194 Lies. Beyoncé has never use payola. Don’t ever lie again bitch. First of all the first half of her career Jay-Z was not even powerful enough to implement payola. You would have to be the head of a label, which all consolidated into the majors in the mid aughts. Secondly she has had less radio hits in the past 15 years since they have become exponentially more powerful. So why less radio hits. Lemonade had no top 40 mainstream hits and only top single on the hot 100. Make it make sense. Did Jay-Z also use payola for Destiny’s Child you fucking liar.

Funny nobody ever accuses Britney and Christina of payola. It’s always women of color.

I meant r104.

Katy may not seem old you but she does to 20 year old guys. Britney was very much lusted over in her day too, but that is over for her too.

R109 something called a milf. Young guys, old guys, middle age guys is gna find Katy Perry hot as fuck.

Fucking Halle Berry, JLo, Charlize Theron were all Katy’s age now in the early aughts and viewed as fkin sexy as motherfucker. You are delusional and I’m guessing very ancient.

R110 = Redd Foxx

r110 I am 48 and I work with a lot of straight guys and socialize with them too

Katy Perry is 39 yr old. Yall are delusional as fuck yo. lol

I just hope this isn’t the same crop of people on the Biden threads saying he isn’t too old to run countries, and then get back to business in the words of Queen Bey lol.

Charlene Theroux was in her 20's in the early aughts

Theron

J-Lo was early 30's in the early aughts. Katy is 39.

r110 = TeaCock.

Katy Perry is NOT hot. Lest we forget what she looks like without a thousand pounds of makeup on...

This is sad but the guys who want to be with a 39 year old are 60.

R112 I think you are just dramatizing their lust for young poon which when it comes to regular women they start to look rough especially outside of NYC, Atlanta, and SoCal, ESPECIALLY in white circles. But guys always care about the face attached to that pussy. 39 in LA looks different than 39 in Kentucky. Anyways, Katy Perry is filthy rich and looks great. Straight men is listing after someone who looks like her all day long.

But, Teacake R112, don’t you usually claim to be 38 under your numerous shuck-and-jive personas?

I am glad to see you properly spelling out “motherfucker” as opposed to your very unsuccessful version “mafucker.” 👏

Darnit I forgot to add start to look rough AS THEY AGE.

R120 I have never claimed to be 38. Carry the fuck on.

R120 Because I said mafucker in my New York accent that time hoe. Get off me.

Gay men and straight men have different tastes in women (obviously I know). I get a kick out of J-Lo's diva thing and think she is very attractive. But to the average 30 year old straight guy she is over the hill.

R124 no she is not lol. Yall are fucking crazy.

Looks like she's creating tour-friendly songs you can create production numbers around. Isn't that where the money is?

Now Sharon Stone or even Jennifer Aniston yes. Not JLo though.

That's why somebody like Meghan Markle would probably have to settle for some old rich guy if she split with Harry, at 42 with 2 kids she is considered old baggage.

Jennifer Aniston has hit the skids, her face now looks old with the work she had done to it

Straight guys do not want to fuck postmenopausal women. Not even JLo. It’s a biological need to want to fuck fertile women for obvious reasons.

Meghan still looks 32. She could easily find a rich man her age or younger. The thing is the richer they are the older they are on average.

The song is bad. But let’s be honest, it’s still head and shoulders better than anything Flopyoncé has excreted in the last five years.

R130 Generally they don’t but when that ass and face looks like JLo they don’t care.

[quote] Because I said mafucker in my New York accent that time hoe.

How could you “say” something in an accent while typing? 🤔

The mask is slipping.

r131 is delusional. I'm out.

R132 This song is better than this. You MUST be trolling. I’m gone yall.

This gif!

[quote] Charlene Theroux was in her 20's in the early aughts

Who?

That country album is garbage from stem to stern. Be serious. It’s as bad as the worst of Gnarls Barkley, whose entire discography is a giant abortion.

Well then substitute Charlize for Sharon Stone who was still hot as fuck in the early aughts. Sharon Stone is actually still very pretty with a great bid for 66.

R139 Gnarls Barley is one of my favorite bands. You are dismissed.

R139 still has MC’s Daydreams on heavy rotation.

[quote]Gnarls Barley is one of my favorite bands

Are you headless?

R57 please tell me you don't really believe that, right?

R127 and R140 = Sharon Stone.

How could I be Sharon Stone when I’m sort of bashing her in the r127 post.

Boobs and blubbery ass on Ozempic stick frame. Ribs.

The reviews from top critics like The Guardian, The Cut, Vulture and more gave it horrible reviews. Katy must be devastated about her plan to come back to the top has bombed. Two reasons: 1. Dr. Luke collab. 2. Outdated, insipid and uninspired theme. She needs a plan b and fast.

[quote] Shouldn’t this get her canceled by Big Tranny and accused of being a TERF?

She already is.

r148 I've got a Plan B: Go away, go far away. Do not pass GO, do not collect $200.

R148 No publicity is bad publicity.

The controversies will bring it more attention. Otherwise, no one would have even known she had a new album.

Funny how Gaga's Stupid Love is getting a ton of accidental praise in all this.

Remember when it was Gaga v Katy when Applause went up against Roar? Applause remains one of Gaga's best songs. But Roar destroyed it on the charts. And it seemed like Katy was going to usurp Gaga is biggest pop star in the world. And I guess she did until Taylor or Rihanna dropped whatever they dropped next.

So Gaga getting the last laugh here is great. Of course, Gaga is still a top pop star and is about to be in a huge movie so I guess she isn't really paying much attention to any of this.

R152 I always said Gaga is doing too much too soon but raw talent never fades. It was like she was tryna out Madonna Madonna with the antics. It was too much too fast. I liked Applause too and hated that stupid Roar song. Give me the theatahhh 🎼

R75 While Closer to The Truth came out in 2013. Woman's World sounds more like something from 2002-2005 and would not have been out of place on the Living Proof album.

Despite how dated it sounded even back then it is ten times more enjoyable than Katy's latest flop. Cher can actually sing. It sounds far more authentic and the music video features women of all ages, shapes, sizes and levels of attractiveness dancing and having a good time without taking their clothes off and getting their tits out.

R154 Woman’s World does not sound early aughts. It sounds like 2009-2013 era of music.

Unless you are talking about the Cher song.

R156 I am indeed talking about Cher's Woman's World single sounding like 2002-2005 eurodance/europop.

Lady Gaga is not still on top of the music world. A Star is Born was a fluke and Rain on Me topped the charts because of Ariana's popularity, not Gaga. After The Fame Monster, Gaga's popularity declined tremendously until A Star is Born. I will say I think The Fame/Fame Monster is excellent. But she's boring to me now.

R157 my apologies. According to my stalker on this thread this Katy Perry song is better than this

Stop posting these shit Beyoncé songs on this thread. Nobody wants to see that.

TeaCock, Beyonce is a brain-dead automaton and I'm sick of you pretending like she's Jesus resurrected. She's not that great and doesn't deserve as much credit as she's been given. And her husband is stupid, too. She can go away now, too.

Katy Perry sucks, always has, her voice is terrible and she's gotten by on her boob power. She needs to go back to obscurity...we were happier without her dumbass, screaming lyrics and her constantly throwing her body and overly-made up face.

R161 Don’t be made because The Queen constantly eats and unites a nation.

What we not gon do is front like Flopyoncé has done anything in the last five years worthy of a single accolade. That’s what we not gon do.

Why you keeps clownin and playin in ours faces? Straight wilin, shoot.

And don’t ever compare a mortal, even a Goddess like the motherfucking Queen to Jesus Christ.

R163 your black vernacular is so wack. The rhythm is off. You are lame. Such a lame white bitter cunt.

When mockery goes wrong.

Girl

Don’t come for the way I’s font. That’s also what we not gon do.

[quote] The Queen constantly eats

Obviously.

Those thighs didn’t blow into zeppelins on their own.

r168 marry me

Hoe please, the Queen could fit into The Mary Boot by Giuseppe and Mary J Blige while rocking a size 6 Levi Jean. You tried it.

We've had sufficent.

Not “hoe”! Go tap dance your elderly white ass back to lipstick alley.

R172 You keep trying to make me white but it ain’t happening hoe. No one believe you. In the words of Sean Carter, “you need more people”

Stop with the Beyoncé chatter. It’s all TeaFake, who’s now worse than JanBot.

Her body is pretty great but that song and the video are so embarrassing. Yeesh.

Nothing like inexplicably walking into the backyard of a black woman and stealing her ring light at the end.

Katy Perry is way more entertaining than BigYawnce

That’s why The Queen stays in you cunts’ mouth. I’m not gon keep feeding haters.

R170 dumbass it’s “ho”. You use a “hoe” in the garden. You’re so tragic. Get a life.

I always laugh when I see someone use "hoe" (a garden tool) as name-calling instead of "ho," which is a slut who lets their hole(s) be used for monetary or just plain slutting purposes (derivative and a short version of "whore").

I've called it out here before a few times, but most people really don't get it or understand, and even argued with me about it. I've let it go at this point because sometimes you can't really reach the idiots. It's sad we're devolving to a point that people don't understand our language/usage.

Imma continue to say hoe. How bout that. I’m hip hop bitch. You askin for spell check on slang? Get lost hoes.

Read it and weep hoe.

Hoe is just the less common spelled version of the word. But we’re talking about an expletive here. It’s not like we talking about the mafuckin word acknowledgement or something so who cares if one uses the less common version.

Keep trying to argue your mis-usage doesn't change the reality.

“I’m hip hop”? GTFO, grandpa.

How many burner email addresses have you had to create just to keep posting here? No one wants you here, least of all the site admin.

I like the spelling with an e - hoe. It just looks neater. Ho is a little too merry and Santa coded for me.

R45 That money is not coming from her music career. No money came from her music career.

“Rihanna also claims it is her accountant's fault for failing to warn her that her Last Girl On Earth tour would not turn a profit. She fired Berdon LLP in 2010 and sued him for $35 million.”

Rihanna is the 99 cent queen. She was a singles artists who could move singles.

And she barely wrote anything. She was going to turn into another TLC situation had she not launched Fenty.

She’s a much better beauty brand than she ever was a singer.

I’m not denying she has hits. But a lot of hit songs since 2017 were Rihanna songs made popular by other artists.

“Anti” was flopping until “Work”. “FourFive Seconds”, “Bitch Better Have My Money”, “American Oxygen” were all bombs. It took her a year to regroup and record and find a hit. Drake and PartyNextDoor saved her.

Rihanna has 8 albums and only 2 of them hit #1.

To compare her to someone like Madonna or Beyoncé or Gaga or Taylor is crazy.

Katy once made fun of Britney’s head shaving incident and then proceeded to chop her own hair off and dye it blonde, derailing her own career forever.

‘Woman’s World’ Is the Stalest Sort of Retread

When a major pop star needs a hit, they usually know who to call first. For

Britney Spears and Ariana Grande, it’s Max Martin; for Justin Timberlake, it’s Timbaland; for Taylor Swift, it’s Jack Antonoff.

For Katy Perry, unfortunately, it’s Dr. Luke.

Since they struck a partnership in 2007, Lukasz Gottwald has co-produced eight of Perry’s nine No. 1 songs.

No one’s been more crucial to Perry’s pop success than Luke, and no artist built Luke’s mainstream profile more than Perry.

And this year, Perry needed a hit.

She hadn’t reached the top ten since “Chained to the Rhythm,” the leadoff to her confusing 2017 album, Witness.

Coincidentally, that was her first project without Luke, who was accused of sexual assault by Kesha in 2014 and had been lying low in the industry since.

Other past collaborators like P!nk and Kelly Clarkson disavowed him, but never Perry. 2024 was starting to feel like a comeback year, with Perry leaving her role on American Idol and eyeing a redemption for her tepid showing on 2020’s Smile.

So, allegations be damned, she needed her big gun to produce a new single and recapture some of their electric connection.

Too bad that song, “Woman’s World,” sounds like the stalest sort of retread.

It’s technically sound, sturdy even.

The beat itself is a textbook take on dance-pop, little more than a gurgling bass and a thumping drum — a track that can get into the club but will never be a highlight of the night.

(Perry’s target sounds like Confessions-era Madonna, but the sound is diluted so much that fans immediately compared it to Lady Gaga’s 2020 single “Stupid Love” instead.)

Perry reminds us of her vocal talent without oversinging.

Sonically, the chorus even packs some punch, with one of those mighty top-line melodies Perry used to deliver reliably.

But an anthem needs a message too, and “Woman’s World” doesn’t have one to offer.

The song is stuck in vague feminist empowerment, which may have worked in 2014 but falls short in 2024.

The verses are a deluge of superlatives that don’t add up to much:

“Sexy, confident / So intelligent / She is heaven-sent / So soft, so strong.”

No, it’s not campy, it’s just obvious — even more in the video, where Perry shows that yes, women can work construction and drink whiskey too.

Pop fans can hear more compelling takes on womanhood from Sabrina Carpenter, Billie Eilish, Chappell Roan, and Ariana Grande this summer, so why settle for Perry reminding us that, baby, women ain’t going away?

That’s all without accounting for Luke’s presence on “Woman’s World,” which negates the song’s entire message.

It takes a level of cognitive dissonance to sing about strength and sisterhood over a beat co-produced by an alleged rapist.

(When Luke and Kesha settled his defamation lawsuit in 2023, he continued to deny wrongdoing.)

As a project, the song has empowered more men than women: Perry’s writing team included four men in total, plus Chloe Angelides, a writer published by Luke’s Prescription Songs.

In many ways, “Woman’s World” resembles “Roar,” the last lead single that Luke produced for Perry, in 2013.

She had something to prove then, too, following the runaway success of Teenage Dream in the early 2010s, and she proved it with another vague, confident anthem featuring another hefty, hooky chorus.

It worked, too — “Roar” hit No. 1, set her fourth album Prism up for success, and now has over a billion streams on Spotify.

Calling Luke for the job of “Woman’s World” may not be defensible, but it’s at least understandable — he’d earned multiple hits since his comeback earlier this decade, including two No. 1s.

But most of those new songs sounded lazy, lacking the energy and spryness that defined his early work with Perry.

“Woman’s World,” a song that’s totally hollow beneath its just-strong-enough bones, is no different. Perry is trying to return to a world that’s just not there anymore.

Glass houses. You were redlined, FruitCake.

No. They can’t.

Bah humbug!

Get off me you gon learn. Racism won’t make me stop. Never hoe. Get well Trump. I have to say that.

r198 trollin, trollin, trollin

Who gon learn me boo, you?

Nah, I’ll stand up for Chapell, Sabrina and Billie.

Even Espresso has weightier lyrics about 2020s womanhood than fucking Woman’s World.

Isn't it possible Lukasz Gottwald is NOT a rapist? There are actresses who continued to work with Woody Allen, claiming he was not a rapist, either.

I’m pretty befuddled by the internet outrage to this single. Relative to the rest of her catalogue, this song is… not that awful? I was never a huge fan, but at her prime she was putting out similar music. It was fine, it got lots of airplay. It was never the epitome of artistic excellence, but it always fit seamlessly into your run of the mill DJ set at a small-city gay bar.

I’m unclear on what people were expecting from the new single. Running up that Hill? Hit Me Baby One More Time? Her whole thing was putting out inoffensive, barely creative music that would stick in people’s heads. This is that, maybe marginally weaker.

Female empowerment being shoved down our throats is so 2014.

There is nothing more comical than women who think dressing like hookers is empowering.

[quote] Isn't it possible Lukasz Gottwald is NOT a rapist?

He’s not. Read this and tell me that you believe Kesha who also lied about others being raped. The cunt doesn’t even remember anything. She’s borderline and her mother is a sociopath.

Katy Perry’s whole career was catchy pop tunes sung by a girl with a giant rack. This song is dull and she’s too old now. The end.

Well that was a really boring song and video. It does seem anachronistic and, actually, more insulting to women than empowering.

I always though Katy Perry was yelling more than singing.

I almost pissed myself reading this review.

flopulous

She needs flop insurance.

She thinks much more of herself than she really is.

And yes, she yells her lyrics. I've heard a non-autotuned version of one of her songs a long time ago and it was horrific. She's gotten by on her tits and ass.

Neither of those are going to save her lack of talent anymore.
