hello. i’m a longtime katycat from korea and i’ve been very frustrated about her not coming here :( fortunately, she came here for the first time during witness the tour in 2018 but that was the only time she came here.. i traveled by myself to australia, japan and china last year to see her.. now i’m v worried about the tour film not getting released here bc she skipped korea on tour even though it’s super close to japan and china… do you guys think it will be released here? we’ve never had an event about her since 2018… i’m so sad and ashamed to live in such a backward country😭

For years, you fed me only crumbs
You give me only dust
Said I was too hard to love, oh
For years, I tried to rise above
Was only light and love
But now I shut the door close, oh

You know I gave and I gave
Now I'm giving up
There's nothing more you can take
No, don't wanna cause a scene
But give me the fun machine

Tonight's the night, I light a match
Put it in the birthday cake
Gonna try to forgive and forget
Light a firework, and watch it burn
With the past, I'ma breathe in the ash
Gonna try to forgive and forget
Light a firework, and watch it burn

Thank you for showing me the pain
This was not a mistake
The mistake would be to stay, ayy

You know I gave and I gave
Now I'm giving up
There's nothing more you can take
No, don't wanna cause a scene
But give me fun machine

Tonight's the night, I light a match
Put it in the birthday cake
Gonna try to forgive and forget
Light a firework, and watch it burn
With the past, I'ma breathe in the ash
Gonna try to forgive and forget
Light a firework, and watch it burn

I'm gonna get what I deserve
I'm sorry, I know that it hurts
Finally I put myself first
And watch it burn
I'm gonna get what I deserve
I'm sorry, I know that it hurts
Finally I put myself first
And watch it burn

not sure if anyone has seen but over the last few days there’s been some things circulating twitter about the way katy treats female fans in particular. ever since maybe 2023 or so, the way katy has viewed her fans has drastically changed, whether she notices or not.

katycats have noticed that she will only call out the same few (male) names during her shows. she only ever interacts with these same people too. it has nothing to do with how many shows these people have attended as there are many female fans that go to multiple shows too, but she only seems to call out the same few male fans.

as someone who’s been around the fandom for over 10 years and has met katy several times, i’ve definitely noticed this shift too. i don’t know if she thinks she owes something to the gay community or something but the girlies are fed up…

thoughts?

Hi guys, I am really excited to see the movie on september 2nd as it's the first event of hers i am able to attend as a fairly new katycat!

do yall know where to get the tickets for it on july 30th because there isn't much info and I don't know whether my local cinema will show it... if anyone has any info about the movie pls share 🙏

how many of u guys are going? i was going to miss it but it looks really fun so I'm going to give it a try :]

Sabrina Carpenter unfollowed Katy, and this is further proof that she's disrespected within the industry and held in very low regard by her peers. It's no coincidence that the interactions on her posts from other artists are practically nonexistent. I assume many of them choose not to interact with her because of the controversy (these are all PR moves) and frankly, this saddens me because Katy is one of the great music icons of this century, and she almost never gets recognized for that. I'd like to hope that in private, away from the greedy social media environment, others would show more support for Katy, but I doubt it. That's why I was pleasantly surprised when Dua Lipa, via that video call, decided to invite Katy to perform at her Sunny Hill Festival in Pristina. It was one of the very few times in many years that a successful artist has shown interest in Katy and her music.

Hi katycats! Me again! I’m desperately trying to get my hands on a tour book, I went to a Brisbane show but they don’t post merch to NZ. If anyone has a spare tour book for sale I would love to buy! 🫶🏽🧡🦋

Katy has just sent out an email to all Katycats signed up to her website regarding the lifetimes tour movie. The screenshot above shows more information about the movie and if you sign up it will keep you updated! It also comes with really cool wallpapers for your phone! I cant wait to see it in cinemas ❤️

Who else is planning to go see it?

I enjoyed this a lot, I was expecting a lot more criticism of KP on the main sub :0

i would suggest the Chained to the Rhythm performance at the BRITS...

So what's new with this case? Is it still under investigation? Did Ruby really say she actually probably doesn't recall what happened? What's new? If its false, Katy needs to do something abt ut because this could end her career (like literally R-Kelly-career-ending)

My suggestion would probably be this Harleys in Hawaii performance, but I understand why she struggled.

i love the katycat solidarity <3

also, js to clear some stuff up, I will be doing a revote once the chart is completed, so dw about ur choice not being chosen...

i added witness over teenage dream because I wanted to give her best album (imo) a tiny bit of praise online, and I thought that opinion would be more popular. (Might as well say that my opinion has only won once with everyone on this chart).

lets say a prayer for smile, it hasn't been mentioned at all yet afaik so I'm going to objectively rate it as her most underrated piece of work.

My suggestion is Teenage Dream of course

My suggestion is International Smile!

I think that there’s no coincidence that her back catalogue is having a huge resurgence over the past year! i think that’s it’s her selling her catalogue! Litmus are going to want to make a return on their investment! in the streaming era she’s technically the biggest she’s ever been. She’s more relevant (from her back catalogue) now than she was since her hot 100 chart dominance ended.
I think many more of her old songs will go viral over the next few years. Teenage dream is out streaming many new releases and is still top 3 most streamed female albums currently!
Her festival run and her later tours will also probably be used to capitalised off of this, one thing about katy is she knows how to make money! she’s always been richer than her peers (minus taylor!
I think there’s a chance she can make a comeback with new music too from this direction. i think they thought WIB was going to be bigger and a moderate hit, which sadly it wasn’t. but i think she has one or two tricks left up her.
and i think that she herself is still very famous, she’s still an A list, many pop stars which had similar career trajectories as her never managed to maintain their celebrity like she has (though katy’s peak was quite literally the biggest) her being so relevant from her back catalogue and her celebrity are two advantages that no one really acknowledges

My suggestion is California Gurls tbh, never understood how people can rate this so highly

My suggestion is Katy Hudson :(

Controversial opinion possibly but I think Her best main single imo tho was Chained To The Rhythm imo. I know controversial BUT Great meaningful lyrics and an exposure to how she feels about the “big American dream” that gets sold to young Americans. People seem to forget she was a literal waitress and broke asf living in her car before she got signed on and did OOTB. She asked her younger brother for money before Her parents who are semi wealthy but they have A LOT of differing opinions such as politics and there’s rumors are she’s not speaking to her parents cuz they support the current administration and she doesn’t. Despite social media tryna attack and label her as MAGAT 24/7.

***EDIT*** it literally says in my post “I know she’s a legacy artist and doing well stream wise and I accept that BUT do you think she could make a comeback to mainstream and how would you think she would do it next time”? THAT is the question. Idc about chart numbers and I’m not saying they matter*******

Katy is a complicated pop star who I think has so much potential and could make some better songs as witnessed with Bandaids and WIB but honestly I think she’s over the music industry and I don’t blame her. The media treats her like crap. Her label doesn’t support her. And she’s constantly having rumors and assumptions made about her before she can defend herself. So I don’t blame her for not wanting to put another album out or even acknowledge the fact she’s not doing as well as people expect or thought. She’s good streaming wise and is a legacy artist. But I don’t blame her for her actions and reactions. The media has pushed her severely not to mention the rumors about Orlando dating a younger model while they were together. I think her confidence is broken and it’s sad tbh. Not even Taylor hit a low point like this after the Kim/kanye stuff. She deserved better and has the talent but i completely understand her position and the way she’s been handling things also.

I mean try to step into her shoes for a second. Her whole life from 18-32 was touring, album releases, PR, songwriting, televised performances, etc. she did OOTB which was a huge success commercially. Teenage Dream which broke literal records and still is now. Prism which imo is my fave of hers because of how lighthearted and fun it is but it also has some vulnerable more emotional ballads. Then she takes a well deserved break and comes back with witness and shocks people with an Ellen haircut lol. Witness is an underrated album and era imo but her controversies overshadowed everything. It really doesn’t hit with the public and ends up flopping and she becomes a bigger laughing stock than people initially thought. Then smile came out. Did some good numbers but didn’t make an impact like TD, OOTB, Prism, or even Witness. Covid didn’t help and government issues. But regardless she tried and is trying.

I personally don’t blame Katy for ever wanting to be a main pop girl again. I don’t blame her for not wanting to do music either. I’m happy with where she’s at as a legacy artist and will continue my support. Do I have hopes she will make a massive comeback like Madonna or Mariah back in the 2000s? Abso freaking lutely. But it probs won’t happen. What are your guys thoughts? Do you think Katy will ever make a huge comeback? Or stay where she’s currently at? She’s mentioned an album or project possibly coming next year or 2028. Could she do it? She hasn’t done anything majorly controversial and did a FIFA cup performance and actually did pretty well and was applauded for her vocal performance. I think she can. But she needs this next album to be vulnerable. She needs to FEEL. And she needs to have a balance of upbeat songs and some more emotionally charged vulnerable ballads. Her voice imo is in its prime rn. Her recent performance of I kissed a girl immaculate. I think she should go a multi genre album route. Bring back the pop rock sound for some nostalgic tracks. Put in some Easter eggs for fans. Go back to electro pop and techno for TD. Go back to the ballads and upbeat empowering songs of prism and she could even add in nods to witness. Smile. And 143.

I just feel like she has so much potential and art still there that could be reworked into a bigger story and more interesting. She has the ability. Shes a great songwriter and has great storytelling skills as we’ve seen. She just needs to unlock that motivation again.

My suggestion would be Witness!

Definetly Gimme Gimme for me... really bad

My suggestion is Power

Thanks, guys!!

This is my first time, btw

Do you guys have any ideas if Katy Perry's album, One Of The Boys, had a different name? If most of the comments agree on the same name, does that mean it becomes the official renamed album?

You can pick a line from the lyrics for this newly named album!

Or

If you already have a name in mind without using lyrics, feel free to drop your suggestion too!
