Katy Perry is as conflicted and complex as a pumpkin-spice rug-and-room deodorizer. She doesn't have a look. She never changes. The Katy Perry of 2010 is the same as the Katy Perry of 2015. Her hair color is different here and there. That's it. She wears tight, glittery, rainbow-colored dresses and black eyeliner. Always and forever a Super Star Barbie circa 1988.
Katy Perry would never disavow fame like Lorde or embrace fame like Swift or ask "Miley, what's good?" like Nicki Minaj.
Katy Perry is Mariah Carey without the amazing voice or the bubbly script written in a glitter pen.
Katy Perry is Britney Spears without the dance moves and the natural bubbly appeal and the nervous breakdown.
Katy Perry is Kate Bush without the everything.
In Katy Perry's own words, she's not creating stuff that moves her or wells up from within her. She's doing simple math. This is why her sound is the audio version of something you'd buy on a sale rack at Target.
