Did the Telegraph seriously just give Prism 5 out of 5 stars

The fantastically fierce Roar gets Perry’s fourth record off to a mighty start. It’s a high-energy blast of catchy pop. But then so were many of the songs from her hit-loaded third album Teenage Dream (2010). The real difference is this: where California Gurls, Firework and Last Friday Night (TGIF) were generic big belters (formulated by Perry’s A-list team of co-writers and producers) that could have been delivered just as well by any large-larynxed talent show contestant, Roar is a song Perry really owns. She’s no longer an ambitious pop star on the make, flitting between her saucy seaside postcard image and blander plans for world chart domination. She’s now a woman driven to tell her own story.
She looks worse than Nicki Minaj.
