Walk_Away21 Posted Thursday at 08:11 PM Share Posted Thursday at 08:11 PM Quote The pop rollout is a tricky thing to nail. And few, lately, have done it better than Sabrina Carpenter. Quote Something, here, recalls what Katy Perry once referred to as her own "soft-serve sexiness": It's a gleefully innocent raunch, delivered with a wink that brings everyone, Carpenter included, in on the joke. (The "Nonsense" outros are either stupidly intelligent or brilliantly dumb, and they're always delivered with slyness and control.) A key difference with Perry, though, is the overarching sense of strategy and cohesion. Perry, when launching an album — as she's currently doing, showing up in Paris in a dress with a 100-yard-train bedecked with the lyrics sheet for her next single — will try just about anything. (Most notably, perhaps, was her 96-hour "Big Brother"-style livestream promoting the 2017 album "Witness": It was a can't-look-away spectacle that seemed, ultimately, to do little for the music.) https://variety.com/2024/music/columns/sabrina-carpenter-short-n-sweet-album-rollout-campaign-1236049669/ 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoisonedIvy Posted Thursday at 08:18 PM Share Posted Thursday at 08:18 PM The media is so sick for never being able to praise and uplift one woman without belittling and shaming another. katy absolutely deserves the lashings, but it doesn't need to come from professional media outlets just to platform an upcoming female artist. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wehan6 Posted Thursday at 08:21 PM Share Posted Thursday at 08:21 PM lol this is so dumb. sabrina doesn't need to do anything right now cause she's effortlessly smashing. katy is trying to make a comeback after two disastrous eras so she obviously needs to put more effort in and get her name out there again to build hype 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bliaz Posted Thursday at 08:24 PM Share Posted Thursday at 08:24 PM Challenge: speak well of a woman without comparing her to another woman. Those misogynistic articles are always creating drama, pitting women against each other. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I had to clickbait a bit But it wasn't really a mean spirited article. The bolded part was the "worst". The article was basically about how everyone other than Taylor is employing different strategies. Like they compared Dua going all out with singles and performances compared to Billie dropping the album all at once.

Eóghan Posted Thursday at 08:37 PM Share Posted Thursday at 08:37 PM all of this is pure nonsense, nobody gives a **** about if the music is good it will smash, if it's bad it will flop. very simple. I heard snippets of katy's new music, sounds niche and out of touch. that's where things are starting wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnusualBoy Posted Thursday at 08:53 PM Share Posted Thursday at 08:53 PM I for one think it's cool that pop girls are doing different things to promote their thing which is what I don't get why some of you hags complain about, drag some girls that don't leave their house to promote their music and abandon the eras but you also complain and drag the ones who actually try to promote because it's not done in the way you want to... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yes, AND Posted Thursday at 08:58 PM Share Posted Thursday at 08:58 PM (edited) Variety lol. Another irrelevant publication using Katy's name for clicks. Her power is too much. Incidentally, Sabrina was lately called out by another publication for her obvious autoplay payola on Spotify.
