This is a random poster on another forum, but it sounds believable. If this were indeed true, it would make sense why she's kept everything under wraps.
I love the idea too, Katy truly knows how to stir up a media firestorm! Can you imagine the campaign starting in August and culminating in a jaw-dropping performance at the VMAs? I would die tbh. Katy is not ****ing around this era.
But in the end it's just a rumor from a random poster. Why would someone on her team tell a random nobody this info either? But it's plausible.
I'm *hoping* that Katy's single doesn't debut at #1, but rather have a top 5 debut, followed by a steady and consistent rise, followed by a long run at #1. I'd rather have a "Blurred Lines" chart run than a "Part of Me"
