According to Steven Jensen, she still hasn't started recording the album, but who knows--she might use a few of those tracks she recorded for the Prism re-release.
(and when he commented on Q4, that was quite a while back). I just hope she doesn't go through a Rihanna/Mariah/Beyonce conundrum where she tries to balance creativity with what's popular, and trends come and go as she's recording, and it ends up taking years to make a great album. Knowing her work ethic, though, it might be different.
Perry’s Golden Globes look has “generated such insane interest” that now the Bumpit will be returning to stores for the first time in three years. (Bennett also said they’d be offering Perry a lifetime supply and making her the “face/hair” of the product.)
And I'm sure she'll write it all by herself
