Auto tune and live pitch correction are used to do what the name suggests: fix tune and pitch issues. If they're being used, most of the time it's because the person can't hit the notes in the studio. You have auto tune like Ke$ha, which is turned up all the way, then there's auto tune like Rihanna and Katy, where it's less noticeable and robotic.
Most artists use LPC when they perform live. That's just how it is (but sometimes it doesn't work because the person is so out of pitch. This happens to Katy a lot, unfortunately). When you hear Katy sound "bad", it's because she's going out of tune or the range that the LPC is set to. There is the key the song is meant to be sung in and then the key Katy sings it in. Sometimes it sounds good, but when she tries to sing in the key the songs are meant to be sung in, it messes up. This is why her producers need to create music she can actually sing, like with OOTB.
Whats LPC though I'm not good with acronyms
nvm I got it. I know they do, pretty much everyone does, their mic set up is chained that way. I know what you're saying and I get the whole autotune is used to helped pitch but it isn't inside a studio.

Nerves, dancing. With Katy, it all comes down to breathing. She has a great voice, but can't breathe properly when she's on stage.
This too, her breathing technique is horrid my god! She has the potential to be such an amazing singer, her falsetto! She needs to train
Here are other songs that are in line to debut on this week's Hot 100: "I Don't Really Care" by Waka Flocka Flame featuring Trey Songz, Trey Songz' "Heart Attack," Pitbull's "Back In Time," Sean Paul's "She Doesn't Mind" and Katy Perry's "Wide Awake."
I don't know if this post belongs here, but I've always wanted the Teenage Dream era to be made into a theme park. It would have rollercoasters, kid rides, and even food related to the era. And like Disney World, each single would get its own land. (Alienated Space Land, Midnight Friday Land, Candy Coated Land, Army Base Land, etc.) There could also be meet-and-greets too, and at night, before you leave, you'd get a firework show (literally, like tons of fireworks shooting into the sky while Firework plays in the background). They do that in Disney Land/World. It sounds insane but I've always wanted this to happen.
Katy Perry

her face is sooooooo beautiful. that thing shes wearing tho.
So you're saying Katy can hit all the Firework notes? Then why can't she do it live?
Is it because she can hit the notes, but she just can't hold them?
Well, It's not like she always mess up the same part. I think she hits all the notes, but in different performances (it's the performance as a whole that is a mess.)
I used to think that it was nerves, but I'm not sure lately
7. Katy Perry, Teenage Dream, 33,000. The former #1 album leaps from #31 to #7 in its 84th week. Five songs from the expanded version of the album are listed on Hot Digital Songs, topped by "Part Of Me," which rebounds from #11 to #10.
I thought Billboard said they were going to count "TD" and "TD:CC" as 2 different albums because of the "naming difference" so Part of Me didn't count as a number 1 single from TD?
But why are they combining the sales?
If it's actually to keep Michael's record safe, I'll be pissed

Making of PART OF ME... currently only available on MTV Australia. My trick for changing IP addy or whatever isn't working to view it... can anyone get it??? I NEED TO SEE! LOL
It's much easier to hit high notes in the studio.
au revoir, see you 'till May.
