ThisGuyTony 23,649 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Yes! Just like Lady Gaga marketed Born This Way around Britney's Femme Fatale! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladle Ghoulash 11,313 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I wouldn't be surprised. Katy said Gaga "keeps her on her toes", so the idea that Katy and her team would be interested in trying to block out Gaga wouldn't necessarily surprise me.

Slade 2,591 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 No, but I did always think the album release was put before ARTPOP on purpose. Remember, her album announcement came out of no where. People had been saying her album would be out in 2014, but them bam. It seemed too convenient for her lead single to come out a week before Gaga and her album only 2 weeks before Gaga. I think that was planned by her marketing team, not her, but that is the only thing imo. Anything else is just coincidence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

2NE1LG 193 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Things are very suspicious tbh.  But i wouldn't blame Katy, cuz its probably her label, and marketing team who's behind this, if it is true.  Im sure that Katy's album coming 2 weeks before gagz and Roar's release date being stragetically set one week before Applause was no coincidence.  Like c'mon, we heard nothing about a new katy album, all we knew at the time was her album was only half done and would be released in 2014, most likely.  But as soon as gaga announces her single/album, katy does the same But i don't blame them, of course her label is afraid of gagz, she'll be your worst nightmare u b*tches, u'l be sorry u crossed her :reductive: Trust me they won't.  People just seem to eat it up no wonder more and more people are becoming diabetics, its katy's fault lol my fave line. she will be avenged Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tokyodisko 0 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 No, and before Applause was officially released, I think Gaga was the one trying to market around Roar with the "leak" and such. It wasn't a coincidence that big things with Gaga happened the same day Katy would announce or release something. Like Gaga was trolling her and had too much confidence in the song. lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whispering 18,865 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Yep, pretty much. Katy moved her album to the fall after ARTPOP's date was announced. Then, announced Roar one week before Applause, when it was announced. Â I think Troy was big on announcing dates way ahead of time and building things up and hype. He didn't get that it was all backfiring and had been since the BTW era. Probably just another reason to fire his ass! Â Also, singles normally aren't sent to radio when another single is setting at #2. It's highly unusual. ;) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wet Fire 5,687 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 It is to some extent possible. Not by Katy herself but her label or promo team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bambino 23,630 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Not really. Their albums just happened to have been released around the same time Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
holy scheisse 20,326 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Yes. it seems odd. the proximity of which these announcements are made is odd. people who say "no..." are full of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JEANBO 364 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Well Gaga also loves to announce things and release things when other artists are doing the same, so... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Monster 794 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I´ve been thinking about this and I came to conclusion that Katy does it on purpose... I don´t believe a word she says about not competing with her, because it just could not be more obvious...  EDIT: Now that I think about it, both Prism and Roar were announced after ARTPOP and Applause and set to be released before them...  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gagz 2,572 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I can't at people talking about Katy releasing Uncle the day after DWUW, but ignoring the fact that DWUW came out the day before Katy's album release. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
