Instead, she surprised us all with a very unexpected teaser, with what appears to be a fun-look(very fitting with the image she has built) that happens to be quite original and different from what everyone predicted. So instead, they claim it's "childish" "un-inspired" and "tacky".
Some of you act like 60 year old prunes, because this is in no way childish. It's playful, humorous, and just has a fun-vibe to it, but no when people grow up they stop enjoying things like that. Right? Wrong. It puts a smile on your face, and looks like it's gonna be visually stunning. It's a spectacle. Her video is a performance, an event per se. She creates and brings worlds to life, she creates wacky characters, she creates art. She accomplished her goal, it's her take on the song, and whether you like it or not, the majority of people will love it.

This is everything that Katy Perry's brand is. Quirky, fun & campy - She has always been & will always be this way - It's her charm & her selling-point, her own identity & it's why she's been so successful as a pop-star. Her formula is perfect. She knows not to take herself too seriously, in the end it is POP music. And that's why she was the reigning Queen of pop-charts everywhere with "Teenage Dream".
This doesn't diminish or demean her artistry in any way. This is HER art, it encompasses her perfectly.
I really dislike this delusional outlook that "Dark" pop videos somehow have more artistic integrity than bright & vibrant ones. It's POP. Popular. Enjoyable & easy to swallow & there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.

Someone who gets it.

It's a ****in 30 secs long preview.
Just wait for the full thing before judging, cause it makes you really dumb, guys.
And so far it doesn't look as tacky as Roar's video.

You're not.
And they will all change their minds once the full video will be released. ATRL, I guess.

I can't understand why are people defending her .. ?
Firstly you don't have to defend her, because she can do whatever she wants and she is really successful etc..
Second and most important thing tho - aren't people (her fans mostly) dissapointed with that ? How is that "different and surprising" ? Just because It's nothing like the song, doesn't mean it's surprising or different, It's exactly what Katy has always done, and what works for her ... I agree that It's ok, but just wondering aren't u dissapointed.. ? She could've make a great video (don't have to be dark etc.. but just great, not this tacky mess) ..
