In a post-Adele world where all female popstars had to opt for more and more demure in order to achieve success, Katy stuck with the outlandish and scored her biggest hits, music videos, tour, and tv performance:



Over 1B views, a 6m selling single.




Over 1.1B views, another 6m selling single



Over 400m views and over 100m streams on spotify




Need I say more?

So why is it that, in the post-21 world, the GP wouldn't accept any other popstar unless she came in the most demure packaging possible but only Katy was given a free pass?

because shes the queen of pop/legend/biggest artist of our time

People love Katy's image, there's no other explanation.

People enjoy the image Katy gives across so why change something that isn't broken.

[Starstruck.]

She's the queen of pop

[RoarRiteNow1]

Because people actually enjoy Katy's quirky image. Whereas with the other ladies I feel people only paid attention because of shock factor, rather than actually enjoying/liking the outfits

[Joyride]

she knows when and how to do it, it's not like she's walking around looking like a clown all the time.

[Bey_Rihstan]

If Katy toned down her image it would hurt her career.

People love Katy's looks. Because she knows when too much is too much.

big boobs

[Lithium9]

There's nothing to tone down

[Anticipating]

Katy is the biggest pop girl of her generation.

People enjoyed Gaga's and Nicki's images too though

It wont work next era. If Katy doesn't have some sort of Reinvention she will flop. Bookmark me

Because straight/gay women enjoy her "attributes ", gays enjoy her bops and children enjoy the videos

The perfect formula

She's a visual artist. People are as here for her colorful visuals as much as her colorful bops.

[Aden]

Because there is nothing to town down in the first place. She's generic and people don't really care much for her artistry, just her music.

[Icarus]

She's appealing to a different age demographic.

Pretty much.

[Marvin]

This is a joke, right?
