I have now watched it 3 times and i actually quite like it

Same here! I really like this video! I like that Katy puts a little comedy in because that's who she is. The One That Got Away, Teenage Dream are more serious with their themes. I do think the video could've gone in a ton of different directions but I am happy with this. The wigs and costumes are flawless.

I like it lol. It's cheesy and silly, but it would have been even better if she took it a tad more serious ;p

Honestly, I don't think Unconditionally got it's fair share of spotlight. That single should've hit # 1 and had another month or two on radio.

This is the only look and scene I really dug from the video, this was flawless. It just looks beyond cheap, even if they were going for a camp video they didn't need to make it look like it was on a Party City budget. The song's still sick, the video just could've been a lot better for it probably being one of her bigger hits.

she looks a lot like Emily Deschanel here! :flutter:

8 Reasons Why "Dark Horse" Is Katy Perry's Best Video Ever

 

Katy Perry has made a lot of silly music videos in her life. But her latest for "Dark Horse" might just be our favorite. After checking out her stunning wardrobe, adorable guest stars, delicious snacks, and man-zapping abilities, being a modern Egyptian queen might just be our new teenage dream.

 

There have been plenty of comparisons to Michael Jackson's Egyptian-themed "Remember the Time" music video, right down to this clip's unimpressed queen. But none of the overlapping ideas are that original for either video. Still, we think Perry did Egypt in a way that only Katy can.

 

Why is this Katy Perry's best music video ever? Let us count the ways:

 

8c00e8f0-9a83-11e3-be38-0d6bddcc5f4d_Kat

 

1. Jiff the Pomeranian! – No, sadly it wasn't the other insanely famous Internet Pomeranian you're thinking of, but Jiff is quickly growing his own million-plus fanbase. The fuzzy piece of doggy magic posted a photo with Ms. Perry on Valentine's Day, so we know it's him.

 

Not only is Jiff super-cute, but he actually earns his keeps by doing some sweet tricks  including skateboarding! Clearly, Perry wasn't just looking for a pretty face. A Jiff cameo alone is more than enough to make "Dark Horse" the best Katy Perry video ever. But wait, there's more.

 

2. Style and Silliness – Katy Perry is one of the utmost mistresses of balancing s-xy and silly. But in "Dark Horse," she gives the video an extra potent dose of exceptional style. From her stenciled white wig to her gorgeous gold bodice, the singer appears to have walked straight off the runway, or maybe straight out of the West Hollywood Halloween parade. We would actually wear some of her pieces IRL.

 

As for the guys, besides Juicy J of course, the outfits are not so good. At all. But the all-powerful Perry knows how to deal with those fools:

3. Zapping Fools With Lightning – Don't lie; this is a power we all wish we could harness during a horrible date. Like the ultimate diva, Perry knows how to unleash the fury in "Dark Horse," where no one gets the opportunity to dissatisfy her twice. With a zap and a "Roar," she reduces less-than-awesome dudes into sand and puppies.

Let this be a warning, John Mayer!

 

4. SNACKS, YO – What better way to reign over ancient Egypt than demanding only the best in munchies, and a lot of them.

Katy's tower of Twinkies, cupcakes, and burgers and giant chalice of spicy Cheetos would get any competing sovereign flamin' hot with jealousy.

5. Next-Level Grill – Forget your run-of-the-mill diamond pave grills. Katy is like a horse: going for the big carats. Could be more impressive than having huge jewels jutting out of one's mouth?

6. Lowrider Chariot – Given that it has no hydraulics, Queen Perry's bouncing chariot is another benefit of possessing magic. And hello, those spinning rims? Even the real Cleopatra would be impressed.

 

7. The Pimp Cup That Out-Pimps All Pimp Cups – Do we even need to make an argument for this one?

 

8. DAFT PUNK PYRAMID WHAAAAT - OMG Queen Perry, do you know the robots?? Can we come hang out with you guys? PLZKTHX.

 

8a. OK, just one more of Jiff.

The only gripe we have about Katy Perry's video is that there are no cats! Hello, what other human civilization revered cats more than we do now? Your fans are Katycats, for Jiff's sake!

I couldn't help but laugh?

 

She is a pretty person she doesn't need all this weird stuff and outfits/hair colours that DO NOT suit her at all. Just hard to look at

My Little Phoney

I appreciate the time it took to create the fashion and everything else.

 

Other than that, I think we can conclude that Katy is not a good actress and that her team feels the need to come up with silly gimmicks a five year old might like because they know that making some truly artistic with Katy is impossible. That's a shame, though, I mean look at Unconditionally, beautiful video... But now Wide Awake, Roar, Dark Horse.... Lady Gaga eats too many cupcakes and lends Nicki MInaj's wigs and MIA's make-up and Star Trek's visual effects.
