Katy Perry on Grammy Parties, a New Album and Keeping Calm Online

[yASSsss 35,510]

How far along are you on a new album?

I’m in the research and development phase. I’ve been going at it for eight or nine years in the spotlight, and then before that there’s that decade of hustle that never gets recognized but still shows up in your wrinkles. So right now I’m taking a little time. I don’t want to jump on any trends. I just need to evolve.

I do my records in a more traditional way, where the cycle is three years, so that once I start writing them, I know exactly where I’ll be in spring of 2018. That can get a little bit like “Ugh.” I need a little bit more freedom, especially when I’ve been doing it for this long.

You’ve been nominated for 13 Grammys without a win. Are you gunning to be up there next year?

The only thing that is on my mind when creating music is being authentic and vulnerable and making sure that it connects. And I know that it does connect because numbers don’t lie. I know that might sound a little sassy, but all I want to do is stay true to myself and dig deep to pull out some of the messages or perspectives that I have on the world.

And where will you be watching the Grammys?

In my pajamas, eating matzo ball soup. No makeup, glad I’m not in a corset. Vicks cream on.

[venusian 4,686]

please take a 20 year hiatus

[AlexanderLevi2 5,849]

All she cares about is the coins 

 

She literally talks like a 13-year old girl. I'll never be able to take this woman seriously.

[yASSsss 35,510]

henny,even if you do try,you're not getting that Grammy any time soon.Stay happy with your numbers,i guess

''to pull out some of the messages''

Lol what

[monketsharona 44,556]

so literally no album this year ? 

[Zsolti 2,688]

lmao  such a sore loser

[venusfly 17,879]

Why is she preaching about making authentic music when its all just radio friendly pop music with no lyrical meaning 

[Prismatic 4,789]

Talent always win. 

 

[SlayGagaloo 16,152]

Sorry, but she's no Grammy worthy. Catchy music that's radio friendly sells well everybody knows that. And if she cares so much about sales and numbers, a lot of her peers outsold her and won grammys 

[Serendipity 7,821]

the haters are seething as per usual

I've been trying to find that so-called talent since 2008.... Still looking 

[Morphine Prince 96,071]

"Numbers don't lie" 

Hmmm... that may be true. Your music is appealing to many. 

But the other number.... ZERO... doesn't lie as well. 

Wish she would challenge herself and actually win a Grammy one day. She sounds like she just cares for mass appeal, and that's good or bad depending on who you ask. 

Not that the Grammys aren't a joke sometimes, but they're still good prizes to win and make the artist a bit more "prestigious," especially if they have talent. 

[yASSsss 35,510]

To win a Grammy,you need Talent and that's what she lacks apparently
