Prove Her Wrong!
Wow. Thank you, Katy.
I had been complaining about Lady Gaga getting undeserved praise, but you've returned to remind me that things can be so much worse than copying Madonna and Ace of Base.
Gaga might be dull, but it seems that she enjoys what she does. "California Gurls" reinforces that Katy Perry is just doing whatever it takes to make a buck, including a poorly manufactured "summer anthem" for kiddies to blast through their range rovers while heading to the beach. One that sounds conspicuously like a sunny Miley Cyrus anthem for the Ke$ha demographic. One that, despite obvious employment of voice correction software, boasts singing that sounds like a poodle being stepped on. Oh, yeah, and it's sexy too, don't forget that. OH, and there's Snoop Dogg there for street cred! Quite a package, right? Maybe the Dogg and poodle parallel is intentional?
Hey, I like plenty of dumb, fun anthems too--and there's nothing wrong with making a profit--but this is crass marketing at its worst. It's like the ads for all of those stupid toy products marketed to kids as the second coming of Christ (like the Skip-It and that ridiculous colored sand). It shows a brazen contempt for its audience that rivals the late 90's teen pop explosion
Of course, if you didn't see the cynicism in those acts either, chances are you'll LOVE this new product by Katy Perry! Buy now while supplies last!
Summer stars NOW
Just when you thought she was done kissing girls, Katy is back with another soon to be chart-topper! This song catches the essence of summer in so many ways and gets you in the mood to put on some sunblock and cherry chapstick, grab a towel and head down to the beach. There's now denying how catchy it is. Download it and it'll be on repeat all summer long, or during those seasons when you wish it was summer! Video with lyrics here: [...]
