Katy Perry performs at KAABOO Del Mar

[Stephen 30,431]

She is a bad performer  I want to enjoy it but I can't get past her struggle vocals

[DanceInTheDark 2,547]

Where would she be without miss Gaga?

I love the looks, I like the songs, she's sexy, she has presence.

But I can't help but cringe when she can only hit a handful of notes in her own songs and she's barely dancing.

The back up vocalists are carrying her so much and it's not even played down.

I don't want to hate on Katy, I quite like her and I do bop to Witness. It's an underrated album.

I just wish she'd do more choreo and hire a better vocal coach. 

Although to be fair, it can't be easy being an international popster and she is probably trying her best.

Good on her for not giving up on the Witness era and at least she looks like she is enjoying herself.

That is like telling someone that they are not pretty but look unique on their own way  also perhaps she is doing the wrong genres. She did much better doing the pop rock stuffs she did on her gospel album as well as OOTB. And honestly, if she could donot a bit longer, she would already won a Grammy or two with it. But those don't give her $$$$$ so she did these pop stuffs instead over quality.

I definitely think she needs to record music more within her vocal comfort zone so she can perform them well live. Why include a note in a song you can't realistically hit or sustain? I just hate when 60% of the performance is her ad-libbing to the backing track.

Her hair, makeup, outfit, and overall visual prowess in stunning.

She can always improve on the performance aspect, but wow at the visuals.

[yes 561]

I wanted to go but $90?

[seashellbabe 276]

people saying Katy can't perform need to open their eyes  obviously her vocals aren't strong but after having seen her in sacramento (was barricade and she pointed at me because I had a hat that said "dad" on it) she honestly impressed me quite a bit, even though by the encore I was ready to go 

[GagaStefi 1,231]

I was really mad when they ended the stream early, but I loved the fact it was a new set design and new outfits. 

[Charliie 1,829]

The crowd looks so enthusiastic.

haha. 

Haha

 

What is wrong with them ?

 

[Irrelevant 20,282]

OMG she performed Peacock / Anaconda? 

[Haroon 49,685]

Love the new outfits  Watched 3 songs and it looks like the same setlist as Witness: The Tour

Wish she was able to bring her big eye stage, that was majorly incredible, but it still looked fun and amazing in the footage anyway

Her pop albums are of the best quality, if we're comparing her latest three albums to One of the Boys.

That was.... not a very good performance vocally, lets put it that way 

[Versace 7,979]

Stop trying to make Witness happen

I don't get it, you guys trash talk Teenage Dream and Prism when they were praised as solid pop records 

but because Witness just didn't translate you guys are trying to deem it as this masterpiece that only a true pop fan will understand

as someone who was a huge Katy fan, this era was flat out painful. Its like she's there but she's not, like she's high 24/7 she's just going with the flow. Half of the songs on Witness seem like they were made just to be made, bad lyrics and her vocals have never been this bad, top that with a confused haircut and its just too much to take in. 

Attended the TD tour and The Prism tour and therefore I know that Katy is watering everything down (since I attended the Witness tour too). It's almost like she's just doing her job and not giving her artistry a chance to breathe. The entire era was based on her following teen trends and saying controversial stuff. This will probably be the lowest point of her career.
