With Witness, Katy reflects on the changes in her own life and in the world around her, delivering songs that both challenge and inspire. Like they say, sometimes art imitates life.Today, Katy Perry announced the June 9 release of her new album, Witness (via Capitol Records), and an extensive arena tour. Semi-manufactured, but occasionally brilliant. Yes, Katy Perry’s live-stream was thirsty, performative, and often times a piece of blatant propaganda, but it was also weird and wonderful. READ ALSO: Katy Perry had a “weird” dream about Selena Gomez I obsessed over the moment when Katy had no choice but to nod and say “Yes kween,” while some random girl pretended to ask her a question and instead bragged to Katy about how she was an influencer with over a million followers.Īnd on Sunday night I fell asleep to the dulcet sounds of Caitlyn Jenner, whom Katy had invited over to dinner, trying to explain to somebody why she’s a conservative Republican even though conservative Republicans tend to be transphobic af while literally everybody else, Katy Perry included, ignored her. I’m proud of Katy for acknowledging her mistakes with cultural appropriation. I watched a clip over and over again where Katy admits she used to say she wasn’t a feminist because she didn’t know what that word meant. I saw Katy randomly burst into a rambling story about a “weird” dream she’d had about Selena Gomez. More often than not, these moments didn’t seem like they were meticulously manufactured to show Katy in the best light humanly possible, which made them seem authentic. Like when she greeted a visiting meditation teacher at the door and offered her some water to be polite, and then immediately kept walking upstairs while one of the women she pays to do things for her fetched two bottles of water for them. Especially when Katy was about to start doing something and she hadn’t gone full daytime talk show host yet. While I wasn’t interested in some of the more scripted moments of the weekend that were destined to be “content”, like when Katy had a therapy session so she could “spontaneously reveal” she’d had suicidal tendencies while the tears poured out of her eyes, I never regretted whenever I’d randomly tune in.

Doing things that should be boring in front of a camera, like putting on makeup or eating salad. Hundreds of humans from vloggers like Casey Neistat to the cast of “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” have built an empire primarily off of just this. ![]() Not because I’m a rabid Katy Perry stan or because I’m DESPERATE to watch her meditate, but because it’s mesmerizing to watch people do ordinary things on camera. And by at least seven, I mean it was probably more like 12 times.Īnd I didn’t just tune in for a second, I tuned in for thirty or so minutes at a time. ![]() I’ve had three days to listen to it now, and I haven’t even been tempted.īut even though I didn’t listen to “Witness” once, I turned in to watch her live-stream at least seven times over the weekend. Although I’m living for the Katy Perry-Taylor Swift drama and I think “Bon Appetit” is one of the best songs of the summer, I don’t care about Katy’s new album.
