Katy Perry Unwraps ‘Prism’ Album Cover

With new single ‘Roar’ doing just that on charts the world over, Katy Perry builds on her buzz by revealing the artwork for its parent album – ‘Prism’.

The colorful cover was unveiled moments ago on Good Morning America and – like Perry – is sure to set tongues wagging. It’s not rocking our world (and neither did ‘Roar’), yet given the wealth of momentum the project has already, we doubt it’ll stop the LP from blazing the Billboard charts when it arrives on October 22nd.

    The first thing I did was squint. Looks like bad photoshop editing. Someone went HAM with the brightness tool.

  3. Lovebird (Prism – 10.22.13) September 6, 2013

    I just orgasimed everywhere, this cover slays. This will be her LOUD style iconic era, yassssss. Going for the histoRIH books, I love it.

  4. Stephy Tha Lambily September 6, 2013

    MY GOD THIS ALBUM COVER HURTS YOUR EYEBALLS… YIKES!!!

    • Slayty Perry (Dark Horse) September 6, 2013

      My god how old are you? Do you know what a Prism is?

      • Stephy Tha Lambily September 6, 2013

        Prism: a solid geometric figure whose two end faces are similar, equal, and parallel rectilinear figures, and whose sides are parallelograms.

      • Slayty Perry (Dark Horse) September 6, 2013

        Now look up how it relates to light

  5. Jake September 6, 2013

    I thought she was going to have a prism for her cover . Lol . Still the most basic pop star out there

  6. Mark111 September 6, 2013

    Nice cover, goes with the title. This will be her year and next.

  7. Queen Ci September 6, 2013

    It would be nice without that stupid sunlight effect which makes it a fail.

    • Mark111 September 6, 2013

      Dumb h**! It’s called Prism.

    • POP ROYALTY (F*** Yeah Rihanna) September 6, 2013

      Open a Book and you will know what “Prism” Means.

      *looks at username*

      oh, you are a Ciara fan ? ok, don’t bother, Stay Uneducated, ghetto and a FAIL.

  8. christinastherealtalent September 6, 2013

    Wow i tell u one thing…with your Katys, Gagas and Rihannas of the world, their labels know just what demographics to appeal to and thats exactly what they go to to sell! The TEENAGERS and GAYS

    Idk whats more tacky, the Roar single cover or the Prism cover?

    • Stephy Tha Lambily September 6, 2013

      I SEEEEEEEE NOOOOOOO LIESSSSSS

  9. Vadge September 6, 2013

    katy and rihanna has proven being generic and basic gets you really far….. Like they bring nothing new to the table same ole claiming to be “much better this era” goodbye!

    • The Boy Toy September 6, 2013

      Rihanna’s discography slays Katy’s though. And Katy’s music works for her. Mad?

  10. Zave September 6, 2013

    Cheese cheese cheese!!! So cheesy!! The video, the album cover, her VMA performance! Ugh it’s like a triple dose of Taylor Swift. Just release Dark Horse already

  11. toohotfortv September 6, 2013

    But she looks real pedestrian. Like a soccer mom in the bleachers.

  12. POP ROYALTY (F*** Yeah Rihanna) September 6, 2013

    Purrfect.

    She’s Doing Her Thing.

    I love it. 😀

    She knows what she’s Doing, I’m Impressed By her Being Even a Feat in the 4th Quarter War.

    Going Well with The Title “prism”, Now If the Package was reflective or Shiny, Then that will be Good.

    katy Knows the role of a “pop Artist” so well and doing Everything according to it, Can’t be mad at her for that.

    Prism!! now that is a Clever Album Title.

    • The Boy Toy September 6, 2013

      Yessssss she is a f****** pop star and a damn good one at that. The Little Maggots are so pressed.

      • POP ROYALTY (F*** Yeah Rihanna) September 6, 2013

        Katy Did almost nothing compared to GaGa and look what happened, a #1, More Sales in the 1st Week, better radio song and the GP is Loving katy More!!! I know she’s basic, but I love it, Gaga need some humbling and Katy is God’s lesson for her.
        And all that with no N*** pics, No Gimmicks and no “Victimization” Were Detected, and I am not offended by “Roar” of course.

        Rihanna is her Friend, What do you Expect ? 😆

        the GP has spoken and they Love katy More No matter what gaga or her Crazy Stans Are going to do or say, Ppl had enough of Gaga’s antics and katy is there doing more with less.
        the 4th Quarter War is getting Interesting…… 😀

      • Slayty Perry (Dark Horse) September 6, 2013

        @Pop
        I don’t use you but honey I see no lies. Gaga has managed to do every desperate tactic in the book of Pop to prevent Applause from underperforming. Leaking snippets, posted nudes, over the top and unnecessary music video, performance on the biggest stage in music, countless thirsting on Twitter, iTunes Festival performance, hell she’s practically released her whole album. And she’s still sliding down Billboard.

      • POP ROYALTY (F*** Yeah Rihanna) September 6, 2013

        @DARK HORSE:

        I Never Tell Lies, I’m Honest and real Even If it will get some caught up in their feelings. 😀

        Katy deserve It.

    • Stop the drama Start the music September 6, 2013

      Ass kisser.

    • LittleScheisse September 6, 2013

      @POP I want you to re-read your comment. Then I want you to go in the kitchen. Grab a knife. Walk to the nearest window. Slit your throat and wrists. Then Jump out. Thank you

      • POP ROYALTY (F*** Yeah Rihanna) September 6, 2013

        U Mad ?

        TELL ME WHY YOU MAD GIRL!!!!!!!!!! 😀

  13. Overdose September 6, 2013

    She coulda done better.

  14. Slayty Perry (Dark Horse) September 6, 2013

    You basic b****** don’t realize it’s cheesy on purpose to go with the 80s themed Roar. My god some of you are slow as f***.

    • Overdose September 6, 2013

      Shes a childish cheesy cornball like grow up

      • The Boy Toy September 6, 2013

        Is this coming from a Ciara stan? Can’t be.

    • LittleScheisse September 6, 2013

      I dont know if you were trying to sound like the biggest idiot in the entire universe but you did ladies and gentlemen! NO ONE WOULD EVERRRR PURPOSELY HAVE A CHEESY ALBUM COVER IF THEY WANT IT TO SELL. STOP DEFENDING THIS TRAIN WRECK OF A COVER. It doesn’t matter though. It WILL NOT sell regardless.

      • Slayty Perry (Dark Horse) September 6, 2013

        Lmao!! Monsters are doing the most reaching!! Do you honestly think the GP is shallow enough to deny a great album because they don’t like the artwork for the album? I can’t! Didn’t y’all say the same about Roar? And look how that went…..

  15. Slayty Perry (Dark Horse) September 6, 2013

    Do y’all even know what a prism is? I can’t and won’t.

  16. cake like lady gaga September 6, 2013

    Basic.. As basic as Roar..

    This album will flop and the Katy Kats will DEAL!!!!!!!!!

    • Mother Monster September 6, 2013

      Agreed its so corny babe

    • POP ROYALTY (F*** Yeah Rihanna) September 6, 2013

      Stay Pressed and Sad as a Zip File in the recycle bin. 😀

      • LittleScheisse September 6, 2013

        @POP You tried WAY to hard w/ that joke. Didn’t eveeeeen laugh

      • cake like lady gaga September 6, 2013

        @little

        READ HA!!!!!

    • Slayty Perry (Dark Horse) September 6, 2013

      Girl bye. The only one flopping here is Gaga and her desperate grasps at relevancy. Your fan base is on s****** watch for a reason. How did Roar almost sell more copies in a week than Applause sold in three? I can’t even.

  17. Mother Monster September 6, 2013

    Looks very basic im expecting it to flop.

    • Slayty Perry (Dark Horse) September 6, 2013

      Roar: 557,000 in a week
      Applause: 594,000 in three weeks
      If you expect her to flop what will Gaga do?

      • Mother Monster September 6, 2013

        GaGa isnt a single artist like katy

      • Slayty Perry (Dark Horse) September 6, 2013

        Lol is this the latest excuse to come from LittleSuicides? “Wait till the video comes out”. “Wait till her radio deal kicks in”. “Just wait until she owns the night at the VMAs”. And now “She’s not a singles artist”. Bwahahaha!! How did Born This Way sell more in three days than Applause did in a week? Lmaoo!!

  18. Kingstown returns bitchess September 6, 2013

    Basic ass cover ENDD

  19. Mother Monster September 6, 2013

    Looks like an instagram filter gone wrong lololololol

    • cake like lady gaga September 6, 2013

      Sis 😀

      Klok dat tea

      • Mother Monster September 6, 2013

        You know i will

  20. Ian September 6, 2013

    what i heard before she’s making a dark/edgier album, hmmm.

  21. Stop the drama Start the music September 6, 2013

    Reminds me of “A Girl like me”.

  22. Honeymoon Avenue September 6, 2013

    How hard is it to understand that tacky and cheesy is what she’s going for this era? It’s 80s themed people! And the album is called Prism, what did you expect the cover to look like? Honestly some of you are just bitter because she’s pulling out massive numbers without even trying. She toned down her image and slays harder than ever before. Katy and her team know what they’re doing.

    • toohotfortv September 6, 2013

      Nothing about Katy’s image at this point is overtly saying 80’s by any means. I think you have your references mixed up. Furthermore, an 80’s reference shouldn’t immediately scream tacky. It’s the way that it’s done. A more capable artist would execute the idea with more finess.

  23. Marketing101 September 6, 2013

    This might be slightly better than Miley’s album cover…

  24. Stop the drama Start the music September 6, 2013

    This is ugly. Won’t be seeing my coins. Bye.
    So far only covers that have slayed me was Rihanna’s unapologetic cover.
    These b!tches really need to step their game up. I expected better from Miley tbh too.
    I hope Gaga’s will be better.

  25. POP ROYALTY (F*** Yeah Rihanna) September 6, 2013

    PRISM:

    prism is a transparent optical element with flat, polished surfaces that refract light. At least two of the flat surfaces must have an angle between them. The exact angles between the surfaces depend on the application. The traditional geometrical shape is that of a triangular prism with a triangular base and rectangular sides, and in colloquial use “prism” usually refers to this type.

    Some types of optical prism are not in fact in the shape of geometric prisms. Prisms can be made from any material that is transparent to the wavelengths for which they are designed. Typical materials include glass, plastic and fluorite.
    A prism can be used to break light up into its constituent spectral colors (the colors of the rainbow). Prisms can also be used to reflect light, or to split light into components with different Polarization.

    Hope This Helps.

    you can also read on “Dispersion of Light”. 😀

  26. christinastherealtalent September 6, 2013

    I never thought I would EVER say this BUT Rihanna’s image and music as a whole are much better than Katy’s….now I will go wash my mouth out with soap!

  27. LittleScheisse September 6, 2013

    Not a Big Fan of this cover but I mean its reflective, which is what ‘Prism’ means!
    I dont expect it to sell because… c’mon its a Katy Perry album but the Singles
    will do good. Katy is just as basic as basic gets. If she doesn’t want to grow as an
    Artist, then let her do her thing. Sales and Chart positions mean more to her
    than having a discography she would be proud of in years to come. Whatever floats your boat…

    • Slayty Perry (Dark Horse) September 6, 2013

      Teenage Dream: 2.8 million in the US, 6million worldwide.

      • LittleScheisse September 6, 2013

        YUP! And it took her 3 years… 5 #1’s AND a Re-Release to get it there!

      • Slayty Perry (Dark Horse) September 6, 2013

        Who cares how long it takes to get there? I truly don’t understand Monster logic. BTW came out strong and burned out quick like a cheap firework while TD is still selling. Longevity>>>quick burn outs

  28. LittleScheisse September 6, 2013

    Let me also say one thing… Selling 500k Singles is good, but remember it is a SINGLE. ONE SONG. Worth $1.29 cents. Thats one thing I will never understand about Rihanna and Katy fans. They get so wet over Single success and laugh at album success like that is the thing to be ashamed of… Clearly they didn’t pay attention in their Math Classes at F** High!

  29. LIONHEART September 6, 2013

    Hope this is suppose to be a foil cover cuz this s*** is killing my eyes

  30. Mother Monster September 6, 2013

    Unlike Katy GaGa is guna push units she’s not a singles artist like katy is.

    • Slayty Perry (Dark Horse) September 6, 2013

      The latest excuse. I’ll be sure to use this when her album underperforms like the rest of her era.

  31. LittleScheisse September 6, 2013

    @SLATYPERRY B**** I NEED TO READ YOUR GAY ASS REAL QUICK! CONTINUE POSTING ‘ROAR’ FIRST WEEK SALES! BUT GUESS WHAT!??? GAGA STILLLL SOLD MORE SINGLES THAN HER! HAS TRIPLED KATYS ALBUM SALES. AND DONT EVEN MAKE ME MENTION TOUR SUCCESS… AND PLEASEEEEEEEEEE DONT MAKE ME BRING UP THAT TRAIN WRECK OF ‘PART OF ME’ MOVIE GROSSING NUMBERS. LMAOOO GIRL BYE

    • Slayty Perry (Dark Horse) September 6, 2013

      Katy has sold more singles than her honey, check your facts again boo. Not even going to address the 3x album sales. Not sure what kind of math you did there. The California Dreams Tour was over 98% sold out and at least Katy gets movies while Gaga gets HBO and MTV specials. I’m sleep though. Fyi I’m a female.

      • LittleScheisse September 6, 2013

        Girl you are SOOO wrong! Check combined single success for the two of them! Even Billboard, Rolling Stones, Chart News EVERYONE knows Gaga outsold Katy singlewise you idiot!

      • Slayty Perry (Dark Horse) September 6, 2013

        Chartnews on August 23rd: Katy Perry at 49.8 million singles sold in the US (Now pass 50 million) and Gaga at 45 million singles. Update your sources b****.

      • Artpop September 6, 2013

        Lets compare those album sells tho b****

  32. dArk horse September 6, 2013

    No ones here for Gaga this time around except her gay suicidal fans. KATY 2013

  33. POP ROYALTY (F*** Yeah Rihanna) September 6, 2013

    And HERE THEY COME WITH the ” But GAGA is an Album artist, and Katy is A singles artist” ?

    DEJA VU ? where did I see that ? 2010 when Loud was Released ? Where ?!!!!!!

    Little monsters are the New BeyHive. 🙄

    Gaga is a Major Album seller, ofc it is a fact “till now”, but She wanted “applause” to be a #1 so bad, don’t deny it, she posted a Tweet with a Link to a YT playlist with 150 videos of applause and told her fans to Desperately spread it After knowing YT views count and might make her single a #1 , and even tweeted she’s a #1 somewhere, gaga is Desperate, The GP told her: Sit down B****. 😆

    And then she say: it’s not about the charts, it’s about the music, B**** STFU.

    • LittleScheisse September 6, 2013

      I have a question? What do you think Rihanna’s first week sales of her new single will do? After Right Now, which Rihanna called a “Summer Anthem” failed to reach the Top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100… Since we clocking tea lets talk Rihanna just getting her 1st #1 Album. Or lets talk Rihannas highest selling album in the U.S only went Double Platinum. OR lets talk how Rihannas Movies, Perfumes ALL Flopped. Or How the 777 Documentary failed to bring in over 1.1 M on a major network that doesn’t even require cable. Or how the Diamonds Tour was STOMPED on by The Mrs. Carter Tour. Or how Rihanna was NOT EVEN MENTIONED at the VMA’s. OR How Rihanna is f****** gay ass DRAKE again just to get a little more attention. Like the list goes on… and on… and on!

      But let me say this… I DONT KNOW WHOOO CROWNED THE NAVY AS THE FANBASE THAT CAN TALK THE MOST S***…… BUT I OFFICIALLY SLAP THE DELUSION OFF OF YOUR UGLY ASS GAY ASS FACES!

      • POP ROYALTY (F*** Yeah Rihanna) September 6, 2013

        DIE. SLOWLY.

        you know I tell No lies, Point where are the lies in what i said ?

        *PLAYS CANDY SHOP*

      • LittleScheisse September 6, 2013

        @POP I can see I left you speechless. Couldn’t deny ONE thing in my post.

        Before I go let me ask you one question?

        “Did I or did I NOT, just F*** up your day?”

        HA HA HA HA HA HAAAAA HAHAHA

      • ABC September 6, 2013

        People love to talk s*** about RIGHT NOW, but what about DIAMONDS, STAY, POUR IT UP & LOVEEEEEEE SONG the latter which went plat & gold WITHOUT any promo or video? Her album sold 3.5 million off of two singles! Her perfume flopped? Receipts? Her documentary flopped, and??? DWT may have not done as well as MCWT, but it was still a major success!

        WHO CARES ABOUT A #1 ALBUM IF SHE HAS 7 MULTIPLAT ALBUMS???

        DON’T BE MAD AT THE NAVY BECAUSE DESPERATE GAGA IS PLAYING SIXTH FIDDLE TO KATY RIGHT NOW LMAOOOO!!! BE MAD AT THE GENERAL PUBLIC! DON’T BE MAD BECAUSE TRASHY ASS MILEY TOOK THE ATTENTION AWAY FROM GAGA’S WACK PERFORMANCE!DON’T BE MAD BECAUSE RIHANNA’S SHADY FACIAL EXPRESSIONS GOT MORE COVERAGE THAN GAGA’S PERFORMANCE

        LMAOOO MAD MUCH LITTLE SHITTZEEE????

      • Zstudbaby September 6, 2013

        LMFAO. Owned.

  35. Untold September 6, 2013

    I don’t see anything wrong with the cover, it’s very Katy anyway, and it matches the title of the album.
    We all thought Gaga was going to slay her with her new single and Katy won, so please lets not count her out in the album sales department either. I say that out of respect to the monsters..I love Gaga but you have to be a little more realistic.

    • Stop the drama Start the music September 6, 2013

      Could be better…

  36. Mother Monster September 6, 2013

  37. Artpop September 6, 2013

    When Katy learns how to perform get at me, When katy can actually slay vocally then get at me, When Katy can sell 800k+ first week then get the f*** at me basic h***.

  38. Dev September 6, 2013

    Made and designed by the same people as Miley’s

  39. JOHNVIDAL September 6, 2013

    LOL I´m still in shock after watching THAT video released by an almost 30 years old woman yesterday…

  40. ENOUGH ONIKA (KMART QUEEN) September 6, 2013

    Like the first single and video, this is also corny. Looks cheap and made exclusively for Disney and Nick Jr. Not here for this era….

  41. Zstudbaby September 6, 2013

    Prism Flop and ArtFlop. Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj will ALWAYS be FLOPS no matter what they sell or don’t sell because they’re fake to the core and mass Marketed Pop B*******. Beyonce’ too if she doesn’t come back from the dead because she’s been missing since B’Day.

  42. Slaysurfave September 6, 2013

    The only fans katy perry got are people who are to brainwashed to listen to lilly allen too dumb not to understand gaga and a rihanna fan because eohanna fans like katy cuz there friends 40 millon bought followers payola deals corny videos this b**** a true flop!!!
