According to the New York Post, a battle of egos has shattered the remarkably productive working relationship between pop star Katy Perry and songwriter Dr. Luke. Just listen to these alarmist quotes from anonymous sources! From Dr. Luke associate No. 1: “He's stopped the hype with her. She got tired of his records, the same familiar sound, but mostly his attitude. Katy's a star now, and she's not going to be told what to do." From Dr. Luke associate No. 2: "He checks all of his artists. He just curses them out. He thinks he owns them because he made them." From an ambivalently defined insider: “A lot of people think that without Dr. Luke, Katy's going to have a big problem. She's not much of a songwriter or vocalist, and she's gonna have to start from scratch. You can't just bring in any producer to make magic. The label is really pushing her to work on another album while she's hot." For the record, Dr. Luke’s official rep denies it: “This is ridiculous … He wishes Katy nothing but continued success and looks forward to working with her again soon.” But that could just be part of the cover-up. What will it mean if this is true? Will Katy Perry take Lady Gaga’s advice and strike out alone, pen and pad and keyboard in hand, seeking out her own pop hits with a sound far, far away from Dr. Luke’s formula? Will she just go out and find solace in the arms of whoever is one rung lower on the superstar-producer totem pole? Will Britney Spears start getting the good Dr. Luke songs?

Here's the full quote:
"This is ridiculous. They just put the finishing touches on Katy's newest single, which they created together, in February. They had a great time, and the single is amazing. He wishes Katy nothing but continued success and looks forward to working with her again soon."
She sounds so pretentious now! Luke made her the star she is, and she is just leaving himj behind
Dr. Luke seems like an asshole, though. He thinks that Kesha, Britney, and Katy are his artists because he's given them a lot of hits (and he made Kesha and Katy). If I were Katy, I'd probably be fed up too

, but 
Good, be done with the similar sound. Maybe I'll liker her more after her songs aren't produced by Dr. Luke.
It's probably the "E.T." remix darling.
