Katy Perry has been slammed by the BTS Army for using one of the band’s phrases on last night’s American Idol.

BTS fans claimed she had previously ‘dissed’ them during a 2019 concert and so she wasn’t allowed to use a phrase that is dear to the fandom. 

On the last night’s episode, Katy and fellow judge danced along to contestant Anthony Key’s rendition of the band’s hit Dynamite but he didn’t make it through to the next round. Before eliminating him, Katy said with a smile: ‘I purple heart you.’ The phrase is a reference to BTS members saying, ‘I purple you’ which means ‘I trust and love you for a long time.’

During the 2019 Jingle Rock concert in which she and BTS were performers, Katy stated: ‘Most of you get to stay late past your bedtime.’
BTS Army took to Twitter to call Katy out as one wrote: ‘Not her who called BTS Army a bunch of kids’ and  ‘Katy Perry called us all children and made a joke that it’s past our bedtime. We’re not dumb, okay.’

Poor Katy, attacked by 12-year-olds for God knows which time.

I really wish BTS would disappear off the face of the earth. They’re overhyped 2012 sounding pop singles every few months need to stop.

Toxic fandoms are at it again...

Just now, President Biden said:

I wish I could pack Dynamite in a box and bury it tbh

It's not Kpop, it's just bad pop

Lmao this is too much

[bionic 19,099]

Is this what weaponized cultural appropriation is?

I highly doubt Katy's comment about staying up past their bed time is shade at bts. Their fans make me not ever want to listen to kpop because their fans make everything about bts regardless of what the situation is. I've seen them commenting under a post about someone who had passed away stuff long the lines of this "we don't care stream **insert recent bts single here**"

Girl as if you needed more people turning their back on you then she goes for the ones with the biggest fanbase right now. 

[Oreo 2,227]

I fear if ROM wins that Grammy against Dynamite, what havoc these +12 year olds will cause on twitter.

[Adarsh 28,314]

They are literally the most annoying fanbase to ever exist 

[Regina George 54,593]

I hate Kpop fans who are behaving like this. Imagine being so entitled that you think color belongs to someone! How ****ing sick! 

[MaryJaneHolland 75,751]

I am certain BTS fans are a social experiment
