Escapists, why do so many people like Katy Perry?

[Sticky Squid]

Is it the looks, do some people like the music, a mixture of the two?
I also ask the same questions about people liking her husband...

 

[SovietSecrets]

Because people enjoy her music. Does it really matter? If you don't like it then ignore it.

On a related note, I would totally hit it if I could.

 

[Inkidu]

She's got nice lady pillows? I don't really care one way or the other, but at the ripe old age of 22 I'm starting to really get set in my ways.

 

[Saviordd1]

I dont know, i like her music. And firework actually had a good message behind it. Do i need to defend my opinion to you?

Pfft, lady pillows. In this part of the world, they're lady pecs!

I don't really like Kate Perry because I don't like her songs. An entertainer who does not entertain me has failed as a person.

Not really, but you get my point, yeah? (It's a joke)

 

[Hazard12]

Because she is like "Zooey Deschanel with the body of a porn star".

Sums it up fairly well to me. She also seems to make pretty acceptably catchy pop songs. She's shit, yes, but she's trying to be, and if you want shit, it's the shittiest. Which in this case is good.

One of the things that really pisses me off in life is musical elitists, you know those people who think they are superior for the music they listen to. Dara O Briain is awesome.

 

[Harkonnen64]

I just like her because she has some catchy tunes.

BTW, I like her LESS because of her husband...

I <3 Dara, though I don't consider myself superior for my music taste, I find it to be odd myself...

 

[Sacman]

Well I hate her music, but she's pretty hot...<.<

 

[HardkorSB]

Because she can shoot fireworks out of her tits.

 

[vrbtny]

She's really hot? ....just a suggestion.

 

[Dags90]

She has huge talents.

She really is a testament to the powers of software. Also, her songs are pretty catchy. What I don't get is why she doesn't get as much hate as Ke$ha, at least Ke$ha is upfront with her inability to hold a tune.

I'd say crucially there's a difference between thinking you're superior for the music you listen to, and thinking that some music is superior to other music (and obviously you'll listen to the former).

Let us agree though, that Dara O'Briain is awesome.

 

[LavaLampBamboo]

I hate to say it, but I just find her really REALLY hot. I would hit that, and so forth.

Some of her music isn't too bad mind you =)

 

[SammiYin]

She has some good songs.
Also she's hot as fucking hell. Russel Brandt is a horribly lucky man

It is just 100% subjective though. Some people will call this music superior while others will call that music superior. There is no objective way to find out what "sounds in your ears" are better.

 

[Woodsey]

Because she's fucking smokin'.

 

[PhiMed]

Because she's got the appropriate aesthetics, and she's a passable enough singer to sound okay after tuning.

Also the powers that be apparently will it to be so.
