Josh Posted May 1 Posted May 1 Swish Swish is the same brand of campy comedy Katy did in the Teenage Dream era with California Gurls and Last Friday Night. Why did camp work for the Teenage Dream era but not for the Witness era? 1
Kummercell Posted May 1 Posted May 1 There's nothing camp about the TD era, CG and TGIF just use cheap/cringy early-2010s humor and feed off of bimbo stereotypes (not a complaint btw, I don't think there's anything wrong with it). The Witness era IS camp but mostly due to the fact it was an unintentional mess, her antics and desperation during the era almost make me think she was doing a huge bit that eventually destroyed her career as a musical artist. Also, music during the TD era was just miles better 4
Popular Post pika Posted May 1 Popular Post Posted May 1 Do some of you only make threads just so you can talk to other people? She was young, pretty and made better music with TD. She was older, uglier, and making bad music during Witness. It takes less than 10 seconds to think this through. 1 22 1

concubine Posted May 1 Posted May 1 (edited) I don't really understand how she was expecting us to recieve it... "OKAY YALL! LOOK! GRANNY'S STILL GOT IT!" Edited May 1 by concubine 4
geddymonster Posted May 1 Posted May 1 She leaned into the camp with TD, while during Witness she tried to push the whole purposeful/political pop shtick.
Prodigal Self Posted May 1 Posted May 1 Why yes, let's have some more think pieces as to why Witness didn't work out. 3
Dula Peep Posted May 1 Posted May 1 During the Witness years the musical landscape shifted and campy fun pop was out, sad girl pop became in with Lorde and Halsey etc smashing… 1

I think if he makes 3 pointless threads a day he gets a grand total of $50 and a coupon for two free chicken minis at chic-fil-a 1 5
BrokenMachine Posted May 1 Posted May 1 Because during Witness she made it seem like she wanted to be taken as a 'serious' and 'woke' artist. Bringing camp and childish antics was the kiss of d****

liquiddiamonds Posted May 1 Posted May 1 Can y'all let 2017 Katy Perry rest in peace? I swear it's been almost a whole ass decade

The album aesthetic was interesting along with some tracks but the delivery and promo were weird. Edited May 1 by Princess Aurora
