It’s kind of funny that only 2 years ago (maybe 3?) everyone was up in arms over her because of her racy videos and subjects, like the controversial songs California Girls, I Kissed a Girl and quite a few conservative talk show hosts were warning the masses at large about this womans intentions to indoctrinate young girls with sex, sex and more sex. I vividly remember Michael Medved reading lyrics of California Girls and describing the visuals of the video where there was scantily clad females sucking on lollipops very suggestive sexual innuendos. Within a few months she was preparing an episode of the Muppets and then the backlash came and the boycotts were threatened and she backed down. Just wondering if people forgot who she was a few years ago and if they are ok with her past? Heck even O’Reilly had her as a “pinhead” during thius time period of that album and muppet caper. Not sure but I’m guessing he would call her a “patriot” now because of the new video.
Too many people have short memories.
You have to realize how fast people get thrown under the bus, yet how easily they can jump out from under it and be loved again. Unfortunately, this pattern is true for both conservatives and liberals. Do something to piss off forum group think, and you're despised. A few hours/days/weeks later do something the group think approves of, and your an icon to be revered.
My understanding is that Katy Perry was a church singer who started her career performing Christian music. She is a talented singer and realized regular pop/secular music could get her far more fame and money than doing the religious stuff. For years conservative music critics hated this woman for her "betrayal of Christian values" and for songs like "I Kissed A Girl". Suddenly she releases something that pisses off the anti war feminist types and there is every chance the same people that detested her a few months ago will suddenly find a soft spot in their heart for her - purely due to the political "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" angle.
We see the same thing with conservatives like Rubio, Ryan, etc, endorsing Romney. Hated and thrown under the bus this week, but almost certainly to be loved again in a few weeks/months. It really is almost comical.

Ms Perry hangs out with Snoop Dog. In spite of her “cuteness,” would anyone here really want to have Snoop Dog’s “left overs?”
