lol at it's happening.. Darkhorse remains selling hundreds of thousands of records a week.. and in the top 5 on pop radio.. without bother..

 

Birthday is also one of the fastest rising songs on top 40 radio.. the media/radio/industry wants katy to be the new lady gaga/queen of pop.. no matter what she does.. it'll happen.. because it is what will allow for more generic easy money making hits to succeed on radio.. risky/innovative hurts the clones

 

This is my beef with Katy Perry.

 

I'd be all here for her success if she was actually doing something great to deserve greatness.

 

Instead she's taking ideas and watering them down into harmless, pretty visuals that say absolutely nothing. She IS the perfect pop star, but I'm beginning to see that pop was never something I should be wasting my time with. Pop, by definition, caters to the masses. It follows the masses. It never brings anything to the table except beauty and s-x.

 

Gaga tried to make it interesting, but the public is just too damn basic. She can't go even slightly unconventional without the world yapping about how she's the devil.

We really need more comparisons like these.

 

Search every KP performance song video for LG references and expose Katy Thieverry once and for all!

This. The fact that the media didn't jump ALL OVER that is proof-positive that there is a serious double standard when it comes to Gaga.

I understand that Katy probably took from Katy Keene, but how the hell is that a big deal? So she dresses like a comic character...who cares? That's not a big deal at all.

If the masses found about Katy using Katy Keene, nobody would care because it seems so obvious that it must be intentional. She could just say, "yep, the truth is I used to read these as a kid and I wanted to recreate my favorite character through my costumes! Retro-pinup comic book girl style is my favorite," and the world would move on. It's a cool concept when you look at it that way.

It would've been a big deal if it was Gaga. For the media AND for her fans, whether or not the Katy Keene **** is actually intentional. I guarantee there would've been people threatening to leave the fan base or starting threads about how they're disappointed.

 

Why? Because Gaga is a truly creative person and people are on the lookout for anything that can discredit that.

 

On the other hand, nobody cares if Katy may or may not be inspired by a comic book. ~*It's cute Katy*~

No smart person takes Katy as seriously as they take Gaga. That's why Gagz has the Grammys :)

They are just on different levels IMO

well its so interesting how katy follows BTW era but with much less album sales!!!! I mean big publicity, being everywhere, big tour and then the media start to turn on her. her ARTPOP era is coming and its coming faster than I thought!!! its bound to happen to all major artists to underperform. in addition the katy cats are getting arrogant like we were during btw era  and they will get their own bitter medicine in the end!!!

and im here to enjoy every minute:)

but they already promote her as the queen of pop. but dont forget what follows. and that will happen to katy aswell. when everything is done katy will have made less impact at her peak than gaga at her peak (as of now)
