"may make Fergie look like Valerie Solanas"!
... if you've got even a passing interest in actually enjoying a record ...

Great review, couldn't have said it better myself.

She didn't have "a good range" when she was caterwauling through Like A Virgin on a VMA playout. And she was quite obviously lip-synching her own song later in the broadcast, so there was no way to judge her on that.

"may make Fergie look like Valerie Solanas"!

Haha, brilliant!

That review sums up exactly how I feel about her.

I know very little about her (I've only heard I Kissed a Girl, which is okay at best), but that was a great review.

Haha!

I don't really mind her that much, but that is just funny.

haha, I actually love the CD (it's catchy), but this review was brutal and funny.

It pisses me off that Perez ALWAYS gets on to celebrities for smoking (actresses, usually), while his best friend, Miss Katy Perry smokes...

If you can't sing your own songs live, you have no right to be smoking. It will not make you suck less live... just my own personal opinion.

She is sometimes kind of fun on stage though. I saw her at Warped tour (went just for her).

If you have to simultaneously declare and rationalize kissing another girl, you're probably not doing it right.

"Inciting a minor **** storm with her 80-character review of Lady Gaga's "Alejandro" video in June, Katy Perry tweeted: "Using blasphemy as entertainment is as cheap as a comedian telling a fart joke." Having declared flatulence beneath her, Ms. Perry's instead churns out maladjusted sleaze. On her latest release, she finds humor in drunken make-out sessions and single-entendre sex talk, finds that being a celebrity isn't always a walk in the Candyland porno park, and through it all, finds maybe two or three songs to justify her album's existence. From Ke$ha's Animal to Christina's Bionic, pop music in 2010 already looks like a trainwreck of over-produced bad-girl debauchery, and Teenage Dream only adds to the pileup. That anyone managed to make a pop album worse than Animal this year is both perversely impressive and hard to believe, but Ms. Perry has found a way to lower the bar."

A slightly more complimentary review below, with a last-paragraph comparison to...
Oh, I wouldn't DARE spoil the surprise.

They're selling it in Starbucks. The friggin' thing is scented like cotton candy.

Posted: 8/24/10 at 2:12pm

That California Girls song is dreadful. Unimaginably vile.

Sorry Namo, but the review Borstal posted wins this round.

I must be living under a rock because I had absolutely no idea who Katy Perry was until I started seeing her mug on the ProActiv print ads that I pass on my walk home from work. My reaction to these ads was, "and Katy Perry is who?".

she kissed a girl, Dottie.

Thanks, SOMMS, I have heard of that song at least!

I wanna see Patti wear a whipped cream-titty bra.

That surprise made me swallow my gum.

Posted: 8/24/10 at 4:20pm

Patti probably has. I'm boseesed with "Peacock" and "Not Like The Movies."

Posted: 8/24/10 at 4:34pm

"Boseesed" is not going to happen.

Sorry - I meant obsessed.

I want that guy to review something Ke$ha did.

[javero]

Posted: 8/25/10 at 4:26pm

<
Over the last decade, DJ Luke's production has gone from brilliant ("Since U Been Gone") to serviceable (Avril Lavigne's "Girlfriend") to nearly unlistenable (every Ke$ha song you know). The god-awful "Tik Tok" signaled that his metamorphosis into an artless industry hack was nearly complete, and on Teenage Dream he bursts out of his cocoon like a horrifying electro-pop Mothra.

Ouch!

Without even looking for it, I stumbled across the news that she recorded an online-only single about...anal sex.

It's title: "Milk Milk Lemonade".

Praise the Lord!
