She wasn’t singing about women’s empowerment. She was singing about the empowerment of only one woman: herself.
How out of touch can she be?
I need to take over these people’s podcasts, because I would not let these stupid ass celebrities give these non-answers.
Just say you wanted a piece of Doja’s success and go. That’s all you saw, not this “empowerment” bs. That word is starting to lose its meaning imo.
She didn’t actually answer the question. She buried it under a bunch of unrelated “I’m a mom now” horseshit, like that answered the question
“The thing about working with him is” *Goes on about a bunch of unrelated shit.
Cool, it came from you. You still worked with a fucking predator and gave him money. You’re not empowering anyone Katy, just yourself
Another “you should have just said nothing” moment
I feel like she doesn’t actually understand why people are upset. She’s answering as if the problem is people think Dr Luke wrote the album for her, as if he was her ghostwriter, and she’s just the pretty performer. I don’t need to tell anyone here that that is ***not*** the issue.
It’s like, yet again, Katy Perry fails to realize that the entire world does not revolve around her and her experiences. Being a mom isn’t even that unique of an experience yet she turns it into her only identifying factor for this album. Lady! This question had nothing to do with the song or the album itself. I wonder if she has even realized that she’s no longer relevant and that’s why she’s sitting on that side of the couch?
whole lotta words to say absolutely nothing
First words out of her mouth are a lie “I understand”
The fact that you still worked with him shows you understand nothing, and nobody needs to start these conversations. That’s why your song was shit and ur shit is flopping. It’s called karma for being an asshole. Bye bye Katy you are old news.
This was a stupid, non answer from her.
Own it flop girlie, you willing chose to work with a predator.
God I hate when they get defensive and act like the criticism and fans are completely unreasonable
She “made a whole ass brain” but didn’t keep any of it for herself.
“i personally believe that u.s americans are unable to do so because, um, some people out there in our nation don’t have maps and, uh, I believe that our, uh, education like such as, uh, south africa and, uh, the iraq and everywhere like such as”

Katy, if you had so many collaborators couldn’t you have jettisoned that POS and just availed yourself of the help of what you describe as many, many other people? Being a ‘matriarch’ doesn’t cancel out being shitty.

This is a lot of words to say absolutely nothing
She said a whole lotta nothing
Is the explanation in the room with us
But but but she worked with him in the past and she worked with a lot of other people this time too!! 😵💫
To summarize, because she wanted to and she doesn’t care what anyone else has to say 🤡
Was there any point here? Even as a fake pr throwaway answer I’m struggling to understand what she was saying
She did not explain anything 💀 God I can’t tell if she’s genuinely this stupid, being willfully obtuse or just enormously selfish.
Oof. Had to stop it at “creating another set of organs”. What a nonsensical deflecting bullshit nothing-burger of an answer
Absolute nonsensical word salad.
And I’m so sick of white Western (mostly rich and famous) feminists using motherhood as a shield against any form of criticism or really anything that’s not directly kissing their ass. We’ve regressed so much that female empowerment now apparently means behaving like you’re not a bloody adult who’s able to actually own their actions and take responsibility.
She sounded like Sarah Palin for a minute.
“I understand why people are upset that I chose to work with him and I appreciate the seriousness of what he has been accused with. However, I can only judge him based on my interactions with him which have all been positive….” Would that make it better? Hell no. Nothing can. So she might as well own it…but at least acknowledge that she owns it.
I get why PR just wants her to doge the question but that’s just dumb in this situation. Own the choice and move on.
She never actually answered why she worked with him; just that he was one of several. If his contribution was so minor, why not cut him out entirely?
“I am sorry I worked with a predator, it’s because I have a daughter”
??????????????????
The audacity, lol. From the bottom of my heart, I hope Perry’s kid and all little girls will grow up in a better world than us
This was the most non-answer answer. She didn’t acknowledge why people were upset about her working with him. It doesn’t matter if he was one of many or if the output was mostly her. She still chose to work with him (which was completely unnecessary) and still refuses to answer for why or acknowledge it was a problematic decision.
“Well you see, I just didn’t care. I wanted my big comeback and since working with Dr. Luke got me a hit album before I worked with him again.” Fixed it for you Katy.
Honestly, this is worse than her silence on it.
Wow talk about not answering the question and of course, it’s all okay because she’s a mother! Like what?
Anyway, stream Praying by Kesha
He’s an “alleged” rapist. Of your former friend. She’s both dumb and evil.
Hot take: Childbearing isn’t some mysterious, divine concept. It’s impressive and deserves far more respect and protection, but it’s often romanticized in a strange, almost sacred way, like how Katy is doing here.
Surprised no one’s posted this yet

Talk about not answering the question. Ugh. This makes it even more egregious in my opinion.
