SEANGT 5,185 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 if it was really the hair...then it's sexism's fault, not hers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyVersace 8,979 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I think Chained to the Rhythm is the cause, not her hair. But go off I guess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dynamite 56,490 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I think it's because the music sucked quite a bit and was a total step back from her fun pop music (and her performances were all awkward).

Anderson123 37,862 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Nah I think the lack of Dr. Luke made her work with other producers and writers and the music she made didn’t live up to the expectations her past hits set. People just got bored and were not here for it, hip hop was the trendy sound. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JazzGa 14,612 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I think the hairstyle played a bigger part in her success than most people will admit. We like to think we are ~*~mature and woque~*~ enough to ~*~*not judge a musician based on her hairstyle~*~*~ but, whether consciously or subconsciously, it influenced our expectations for the era. Witness disappointed most people, I think, because it was hyped up to be some sort of Magic Growth Period for Katy during which she suddenly became elegant, talented, edgy, "deep" or whatever. The haircut added to that re-branding expectations. Then we got... pretty much more typical Katy. And a couple of lukewarm attempts at "love everybody" type Kindergarten teacher politics.

I like the short hair. This! I think after CTTR people expected more songs like this! But everything they got was Bon apetite and swish swish the later only became a mediocore hit because of Nicki (hate to say that but fact) and because of the video wich full of 1000 memes. Oh and maybe because of that guy who dances so strange with his arms (can't remember name) I don't wanna talk about Hey hey heys video... Katy is a beautiful powerful and funny person and the visuals of her latest world tour were AMAZING! The not really success of witness had nothing to with her Hair...

Zak 309 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I stayed with my teacher yesterday after school. I asked him to play Witness and he was disgusted. He was talking about how the short hair and bad album ruined her reputation. I still think Witness is a good album. Especially Roulette,Power, and Dance with the Devil.

Smother Em Eh 7,088 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I agree tbh but releasing Bon Appetit as a single didn’t help and she did release Rise with her black hair like 6-7 before CTTR and it flopped soooo hard so can’t say her haircut affected her that much.

And as the era went, the controversy about the hair faded but the impact of it was huge. Witness is an amazing album! It has such good songs like: Hey Hey Hey, Witness, Roulette, Power... I mean that if Katy would keep the black long hair, the era would've been very succesfull It's sad when all you are is your hair... -𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐀𝐌𝐄 𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐆𝐌𝐀™ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
socotra 3,295 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I think on a surface level it's easy to connect the hair change to Witness's underperformance (in comparison to her previous efforts), but it really comes down to her 6 year streak of insane success. In other words, I think Witness would have gone the same way it did even if she'd kept her natural color. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
