Sneak Peek: Katy Perry – ‘Dark Horse’ Video

Published: Thursday 13th Feb 2014 by Sam

With new LP ‘Prism’, Pop starlet Katy Perry has cemented herself as a chart force. Thus far the project has spawned two Billboard #1’s – the latest being ‘Dark Horse’, which topped the Hot 100 tally last month.

The feat was particularly impressive as the Juicy J assisted track was without a video at the time.

Smartly (given today’s visual age), Perry isn’t letting the success of the track diminish the need for an accompanying   music video.

Set to premiere on February 19th – the same day the star performs at the BRIT Awards in London, a sneak peek of the cinematic clip was unwrapped moments ago.

Journey back to Egyptian era with Ms. Perry below…

Looks lush!

    I always find her videos interested.. Judging by the preview, I have a feeling that some people are going to have a problem with this because she’s dressed like an Egyptian.. The same story with the Geisha outfit/theme for her “Unconditionally” performance.

  2. MIke February 13, 2014

    Wow am I the only one offended or is Katy mania going to overshadow this bad taste?

  3. creative February 13, 2014

    i see katy is going to do an interesting theme

  4. Yea ok February 13, 2014

    Crazy thing. I hate this song but I always enjoy her videos. She actually puts a lot of thought into them and they are visually stunning. I’m sure it won’t be a let down like *cough* Mariah’s.

    Why are people making a big deal of Egyptian theme? Most religions today are carved out of Egyptian culture from back in the day. She is honoring her roots. I love it.

    I still can’t believe this song has been slaying the way it has tho. Kudos to her.

  5. xedos February 13, 2014

    I wonder if ms perry knows that the original Egyptian were black people?

  6. navy nick February 13, 2014

    This song is terrible (the beat is good), BUT I have NO idea what it is talking about..UNCONDITIONALLY was an AMAZING song, BUT hey music is just crap these days-video will be kool, I am sure..BUT i just cant understand the hype behind this song….(o well)

  7. h2o February 13, 2014

    She’s so f*cking horrible OMGGG

  8. what? February 13, 2014

  14. molly February 13, 2014

  15. slay_hive February 13, 2014

    Corny ass b****.

  16. MARCUS February 13, 2014

    This is so offensive. I bet all y’all ignorant people will love and glorify this s***. The media treats black people and the roots of urban culture as a complete joke.

  17. Molly February 13, 2014

    @Slay_Hive whats corny is a b**** thats supposed to have class stripping every second she can even with a child she can’t stop stripping :-/

  18. Realest February 13, 2014

    She always needs a HUGE production to mask her lack of vocals and Kibs BOP themed music. I do like her but she is the epitome of “smoke and mirrors” because we all know her organic talent falls extremely short. You will never see (or at least want to see) an organic stripped down version of ANY of Katy’s songs. She needs massive distractions!

  19. Molly February 13, 2014

    Omg people are offended…… WHO GIVES A F***.

  20. slay_hive February 13, 2014

    Molly get a life and hop of my d*** for once. WTF does Beyonce have to do with anything?

    She is still outselling this corny b****, and your irrelevant fave ;0

  21. Molly February 13, 2014

    Don’t diss katy and expect no one to come for your fraud ass fav. @Slay_Hive i need to hop off your d***? when yesterday you randomly wished death on me and lovebird oh how hypocritical of you…

  22. FAF February 13, 2014

    Memphis egypt? girl is this her black history month tribute?

  23. Touché February 13, 2014

    Sam there is nothing “lush” about this video. Once again the masses are too ignorant to understand the satanic undertones that these mainstream “artists” shove in your faces all the time. There’s more than meets the eye….

  24. LOL February 13, 2014

    Touche you are always talking about the illuminati and satanic s***. Why are you constantly clicking on this site and listening to these artists? Why is that puppet in your avi? STFU

  25. Tyler February 13, 2014

    @Molly
    Girl bye! As long as nobody’s going in on John Cena oops…I mean Ciara, ur ass really shouldn’t have a problem.

  26. BossB*tchBeyonce February 13, 2014

    Lolz @Tyler

  27. True Talent (Formerly Lil Mo’s fake stan) Stan and Trey Burke’s husband (Kendricks d*** game wasnt on point, so I divorced that a**)) February 13, 2014

    This should’ve been the treatment for legendary lovers. It’d make more sense.

  28. IStanForYourFav February 13, 2014

    She’s so pretty to me. Funny teeth. I think she has a great sense of humor though. She’s so fun and pop you actually forget her age. She winning so anyone hating can Gabe several. Can’t wait for the video.

  29. S****** Blonde February 13, 2014

    Cleopatra.

  30. Touché February 13, 2014

    @ Lol, I come here to see how the state of “music” continues to go. If you don’t like my comments than don’t respond, it’s as simple as that smartass. Prince is not even a puppet. He actually has control over his music unlike a lot of these mainstream “artists” so you’re wrong as usual. Besides, you act as if I care about him or any other artist( i.e. Sade) in the manner that you idiots like your “faves”. I actually only like him as a musician not for his art. I’ve said this before on this website that I only like instrumental and on occasion vocal based performers. Now, you may continue to kiss the ass of these devil worshipers like the blind sheep that you are.

    P.S. It’s actually not even called the “Illuminati”. 😉

  31. Mike February 13, 2014

    GOTTA GIVE IT TO HER, SHE ALWAYS PUT AMAZING EFFORT INTO EVERY SINGLE ONE OF HER VIDEOS

  32. FutureCIARA February 13, 2014

    IM OVER THIS ILLUMINATI PUPPET!

    HER ROOTS ARE FAR FROM EGYPTIAN!!

    THE ONLY THING SHE MAY HAVE IN COMMON WITH EGYPT IS THE SONGS LYRICS ABOUT WITCHES AND MAGIC, AND EGYPTS SINFUL/SORCERY HISTORY. EGYPT ALSO WAS KNOWN FOR ALOT OF MAGES AND MAGICIANS AND PAGAN GOD RITUALS. HENCE THE EYE OF HORUS (SUN GOD) PAINTED AROUND HER EYE.

    IM INTERESTED TO READ BETWEEN THE LINES OF THIS VIDEO TO SEE WHAT SHE IS SECRETLY REVEALING. BUT IM SO SICK OF THE MASSIVE AMOUNT OF PUPPETS AND SELL OUTS IN THE INDUSTRY TODAY!

    BTW THE (AFRICAN) EGYPTIANS, CREATED MATHEMATICS!!! DO YOUR RESEARCH AND PICK UP A BOOK

  33. FutureCIARA February 13, 2014

    @TOUCHE

    YOU ACTUALLY SEEM TO HAVE SENSE!

    People are blind, and oblivious to images that are being forced in front of them everyday!!

    Im not worried though, because I actually know the TRUTH!

  34. JER February 13, 2014

    I LIVE!!!!!!!! I live for anything Egyptian done well. That look is legendary. Cleopatra YASSSSS!!!!!!!!

  35. FutureCIARA February 13, 2014

    RIHANNA IS GOING TO BE UPSET THAT SHE DIDNT COME UP WITH THIS FIRST!!

  36. Slayty Perry (Prismatic Tour) February 13, 2014

    Lmao someone is always offended by something. Katy doesn’t give a f*ck. I can’t with children bringing up the illuminati. Do you still believe in the tooth fairy and Easter Bunny too? Y’all take a few pagan symbols and run with. Anyone who has actually bothered to study the Bible would know that all these images illuminati believers associate with the devil have nothing to do with the devil. But I’ll let you people “in the truth” continue to believe so, as long as you donate your views to this undoubtedly epic music video that is to come 😉

  37. Touché February 13, 2014

    @ FutureCiara, Thank you! I just don’t understand why so many people cannot see past the b*******. I mean, it’s in front of their faces. I kind of feel bad for these “artists” but I also don’t feel right to just sit back and let them continue to brainwash the masses. People need to know the truth and stop supporting these puppets.

  38. Slayty Perry (Prismatic Tour) February 13, 2014

    @Slay_Hive What happened to Drunk in Love dethroning Dark Horse? Weren’t you saying Beyonce was on Katy’s ass? Why is Dark Horse sitting at #1 for week 3 while Drunk In Love is three spots from being out of the top 10 on Billboard?

  39. Justin February 13, 2014

    B.A.S.I.C!

  40. Sandra February 13, 2014

    Michael Jackson did it first, Remember The Time from 1992.

  41. Marcus February 13, 2014

    It’s Crazy How People Look Really Deep Into A Music Video.

    I Didn’t Think Nothing Of The Video Being “Offensive” Until I Read People’s Comments. Smh

    I’m Just Going To Stop Reading Comments Because It Affects My View Of A Video.

  42. justin February 14, 2014

    i wonder if you know that CLEOPATRA was NOT.

  43. justin February 14, 2014

    how about the egyptians did it first? go into a costume store and youll see egyptian costumes, its not that exclusive. everyones always tryna call out who did it first. THERE IS NOTHING NEW UNDER THE SUN. we all take and inspire from each other as mankind. go ahead and create an original color unlike any other color. go make an outfit or song unlike any other in every way. THIS IS SO TIRED. what is your beautiful concept for this video?

  44. Casual February 14, 2014

    Cool concept. And I have NO problems at all with “Katy Patra,” just as I had no problems with Beyonce channeling Queen Elizabeth I to promote her tour.

  45. ILOVEJAMESDEAN February 14, 2014

    If Mariah’s record for most #1’s would be broken soon (most probably), I would prefer that it would be Katy than that talentless Rihanna. C’mon Katy!!! 4 more #1’s from PRISM!!

  46. Navy Commander February 15, 2014

    basic perry strikes again. none of her videos tell a story its just the same old thing, take a basic tired theme and run with it. part of me is her only good video.

    and rih has done the Egyptian thing before, she did it at hackney weekend too.
