Katy Perry is one of the world’s biggest pop stars. Early in her career, before she became really respectable, she put out a song that struck me as profoundly stupid and this video of her performing it live didn’t help:
MALE peafowl have those massive tail feathers, not the females. And the song is clearly a metaphor. Buckley figured that one out fast enough. Jump ahead about nine minutes on this video and watch the Peacock song, referred to there as 2nd Place on the list:
I’ll bet Katy Perry really regrets making that song now, because it opened her up to being smeared. Read this story:
Katy Perry accused of exposing ‘Teenage Dream’ model’s penis at party
A model in Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream” music video alleges she exposed his penis to an entire party of people, which he says amounts to sexual assault.
Josh Kloss, who appeared in the megahit video with the singer, wrote on Instagram that Perry, now 34, was cold to him when others were around but warm and friendly when they were alone. He also said she invited him to a strip club, but he turned it down.
Kloss claims he and Perry ran into each other several times after her divorce from Russell Brand, and that’s when she allegedly committed sexual misconduct.
“This one time I brought a friend who was dying to meet her,” Kloss recalled. “It was Johny Wujek’s birthday party at Moonlight Rollerway. And when I saw her, we hugged and she was still my crush. But as I turned to introduce my friend, she pulled my Adidas sweats and underwear out as far as she could to show a couple of her guy friends and the crowd around us my penis.”
“Can you imagine how pathetic and embarrassed I felt? I just say this now because our culture is set on proving men of power are perverse. But females with power are just as disgusting,” he wrote.
Kloss claims he made a total of $650 from his work in the video, even though it appeared on her tour and DVD.
“I was lorded over by her reps, about not discussing a single thing about anything regarding Katy publicly. And a couple interviews they edited and answered for me,” he alleged. “So, happy anniversary to one of the most confusing, assaulting, and belittling jobs I’ve ever done. Yay #teenagedream. I was actually gonna play the song and sing it on ukelele for the anniversary, but then as I was tuning I thought, f—k this, I’m not helping her bs image another second.”
In a post on Monday, he published what he claimed was a screenshot of communications between himself and Perry’s team about an interview, writing, “I was supposed to minimize myself and stay PC to protect her ‘image.’ I listened and was a good boy. The fear sticks with you when you are censored to protect someone else’s image. But in return treated like a prostitute and exposed in front of a group of her friends and other random people. Then you are shocked and you block it out because you watch the face of children being uplifted by positive music she sang. And your mind is stuck trying to do your job and protect her bs image or be honest and help the global dialogue about power and abuse.”
Kloss, who also complained about his ex and mother of his daughter in his missives, then launched into a tirade about the perils of the #MeToo movement on men, writing, “And you hear over and over a million times that Males [sic] are the great evil on this planet. Meanwhile you know the truth POWER empowers what is corrupt in people, regardless of their gender.”
Representatives for Perry did not respond to Fox News’ requests for comment on Kloss’ claims.
The “Never Really Over” singer has a somewhat recent history of accusations of crossing boundaries with others.
She was accused of “forcibly kissing” an “American Idol” contestant in 2018. In 2017, Perry was accused of grabbing then-17-year-old singer Shawn Mendes’ derriere on a red carpet without his consent, though he later backpedaled on the allegations.
Of course, I am not saying it’s not possible she violated that guy, but one can only wonder why he is coming forward NOW and not several years ago when his accusation could have damaged her credibility a lot more. Well, here are some clues.
Perry revealed her political views with this song after Donald Trump became President:
This seems to have infuriated the bosses at FOX News, because ever since, they have been putting out stories to attack her. Not just one or two, but a whole series of them, links to which were conveniently provided on the story above, but I pulled those links out and put them down here:
https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/katy-perry-nuns-convent-blood-hands
https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/katy-perry-says-all-the-awards-shes-won-are-fake
https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/katy-perry-ordered-pay-million-copying-christian-song
Donald Trump is always accusing his critics in the media of putting out “fake news” about him. Why not turn that accusation around and claim FOX News has an obsessive vendetta against Katy Perry? I have no doubt that if she was a Republican, they wouldn’t be publishing all those hit jobs on her!
Going back to the first story, we look at these parts of it again:
Can you imagine how pathetic and embarrassed I felt? I just say this now because our culture is set on proving men of power are perverse. But females with power are just as disgusting,” he wrote.
Kloss, who also complained about his ex and mother of his daughter in his missives, then launched into a tirade about the perils of the #MeToo movement on men, writing, “And you hear over and over a million times that Males [sic] are the great evil on this planet. Meanwhile you know the truth POWER empowers what is corrupt in people, regardless of their gender.”
If this was merely about what Katy Perry did to him, why mention these other issues? Because in the end it is not even about him or Perry at all, it is about discrediting the #metoo movement by implying that it’s all about enabling women to abuse men, not righting the wrongs men have committed against women. And that is bullshit. It is to sexism what “ALL LIVES MATTER” is as a response to the Black Lives Matter movement. The best way to attack opponents of racism or sexism in our society is to claim they are themselves reverse racists or sexists. Reason: Genuine equality just doesn’t occur to bigots.
Note: Unless and until a leader of the Black Lives Matter or MeToo movements claims that whites should be discriminated against or that men should be sexually assaulted, we should IGNORE THE CHARGES OF REVERSE BIGOTRY! Remember this?
Glenn Beck lied there, and of course this was also on FOX News. That propaganda network was trying way too hard to discredit Obama then and is trying way too hard to discredit Katy Perry now. And we should accept none of these biased smear tactics anymore.
