Katy Perry rocked Glasgow, Scotland with a ‘roaring’ set at ‘BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend’ yesterday evening, doing so as part of the push for her brand new album ‘Prism.’
Now, perhaps in response to scathing criticism launched at her singing voice in the past, this performance may or may not have seen Perry employ help of the “pre-recorded persuasion”, sounding miles better than she did when she stormed the ‘X Factor UK‘ with ‘Roar’ last year.
Not sure what we mean?
Hit the play button after the jump!
Though she isn’t the strongest vocalist, one has to commend Katy for finding a lane and fully committing to it.
After all, while Lady GaGa now pays the price for straying too far from the look and sound that made her Lady GaGa, Katy stays atop Pop’s food chain with hits and live performances that speak directly to her feel good Pop loving audience, while keeping things fresh with edgy yet inoffensive concepts and themes in her videos and on stage!

Well, she definitely sounds better here than at XF. I remember she got dragged there by everyone for that.
Rosie, did you see how “FutureCedric” got dragged in the Madonna post?
Yes, I saw it yesterday. Too bad I missed it.
She sounds better here than Lana has ever sounded live.
Still mad because she ended Fadga’s career?
I wish everyone would stop acting like gaga is over artpop is like rihannas rated r or beyonces 4 when she releases her next album she will snatch the pop girls wigs just like loud did.
@CT…
.
Only delusional Lana stans think GaGa is finish. They must explain why she selling out stadiums/arenas if she is finished
Rosie really needs to stfu no ones checking for Lana seeing as though west coast flopped so tragically.
The irony of a K** Kardashian stan saying no one cares for Lana after their fave paid her almost $3 million just to perform three songs before their wedding.
And Fadga stans can brag all they want about all her so-called “sold-out” dates when she can’t even sell out arenas anymore when she was just doing stadiums two years ago, let alone outgross Katy Perry. The decline is so real.
Exactly even though her album is underperforming she is still a touring force. Gaga has something that most pop girls dont have its called talent. What will these girls cling too when they age and the GP is over them?
Katy really isn’t that bad of a singer I’ve heard worse from (Britney,Lorde,Selena Gomez, & Justin Bieber)
f*** ya for puttin Justin and selena in that be f****** list…but i shouldnt be all in that mad,they still sell better than ciara and iggy combined each
For once I can understand you. Hooked on phonics is really working for you. Kudos!
Dead @Molly. Thank god for @RihIcon and @Ozzy
Yassss girl I know u snatched that hooked on phonics for that sale price
Congrats Katy! I’m starting to like her!
Dead @Katy Perry and all these girls who are at their peaks but struggling to sing as if they were trying “I will always love You” type of songs. I can´t get out of my head that video with Katy faking she can play the flute. It was f****** hilarious and sad. I really felt bad.
*plays Gloria Estefan´s “Reach”*
Lol. You always be dragging these poor young artist. They will never be great as the one in your avi. But at-least, they trying!
Out girl is coming tomorrow. & thanks for agreeing with me in that Whitney post.
Our*
I´m so excited! All I´ve heard are great things even from proffesional critics (who normally don´t give Mariah the credit she deserves) and I haven´t listened to many of the songs yet cause I want it to be like back in the day, wait for the physical copy and buy it. SO EXCITED!
You’re one bitter queen no ones forcing you to watch it go stick to your old tired queens and leave Katy alone.
Don’t come for JohnVidal. Me is the oldest and most respected lamb here.
Who respects him? you cause no one else does. Btw he doesn’t even like you didn’t he call you & Stephy fake lambs lol
He called Slutty a fake lamb but not me. No one eve called my a fake lamb besides that pressed ass bitchh @IStanForYourFav
I don’t really care for him but he Stans for legends.
I remember him saying you stan for Rihanna so you really aren’t a real lamb or something like that either way i don’t like him hes to bitter when it comes to these younger artists.
smh…
Death at you calling Stephy “Slutty”
No whenever I tried to shade Celine he’d try to say, “oh you Stan for Rihanna though”.
@slayriah is a real fan, so @molly shup up please. The thing I said long ago was that I didn´t understand how he/she could like Rihanna so much if he/she loves someone like Mariah Carey. That´s it. Also, I don´t like how extremely rude she/he is to beyonce (an artist I don´t like, but never hate personally, or any other artist really) Don´t know why you are always so pressed when I dislike talentless girls. I visit their posts like 1 out of 20 posts about them. Most of you are hating on every single post every day. But for the most part, I ususally agree with @slayriah, at least lately.
And also, @Molly, I like a lot of young artists, just not the talentless ones, who happen to be the most promoted nowadays (in general). It´s not my fault.
i be missin jcole and drake so bad yall..anyway none of my faves sing worse than katy,but she did be tryn here,ill give ya that
@slayriah…b**** ill drag ya ass so hard,dont be all up in here actin all gansta..f*** ya actin hard..b**** ya aint and you be so ghetto..f*** wrong witcha
You calling me ghetto is like Paris Hilton calling Angelina Jolie a whoreee. #TryAgain
paris hilton and jenelle from t*** mom be my roles so im glad you be knowin that half bout me..and f*** wrong with ya,u and molly be havin sumn against me and i aint know what it be
Lol at the delusion..

How did Drunk Rey end GaGa’s career when GaGa is selling out stadiums and Lana is stuck in 2k venues?
Why has btd that is over 2 years old been outselling Artpop for months?
I was saying that Katy ended Fad’s career but carry on. Make sure to buy Chartflop so it won’t fall off the BB200 for good next week.
Anyways back on topic Katy needs to make Walking on air or legendary lovers the next single other wise this era should be a wrap.
Where’s the post for shades of cool or the performance of ‘ultraviolence’ in Vancouver or that the album is now up for pre-order or the fact that 3 weeks before it’s release it’s already at #4 on the US itunes chart?
The blog doesn’t keep up with Lana like that. They’re too busy obsessing over Beyonce, thinking of tired shade to throw @ Mariah/Rihanna, and shoving Rita Whora down our throats.
There are far too many posts about Rita. I’m pretty sure this site is paid to give her publicty.
Not to mention she has 2 other versions of ultraviolence in the top 100
Mariah was #6 on that chart 3 weeks before her release too. But yeah Lana will do good I think, even if her singles don´t work.
Yeah, that’s why I haven’t been coming for her iTunes stats lately. We’ll know on Wednesday.
This is such a good sign! Usually albums that do that well on pre-orders do good first week (see: Coldplay, 5 Seconds of Summer).
Basic Perry will she ever learn how to sing live?
I’m always feeling Katy
Except her live performances .
Still better than current Mariah with no
Sense of wat she’s doing on stage this
Time around .
Katy >>>>>>>gaga
Yea cling to Katy since she doesn’t struggle for hits like Beyonce.
I’ve always been a Katy fan
X Tina and Whitney fan
But Beyonce is my number 1
And u shouldn’t be taking about number 1’s
U should worry about gaga decline in the music
Industry .
To me gaga is fake and unoriginal she takes
Her self to serious and has now become
Katy’s shadow
To me Beyonce is fake, unoriginal, a thief, spineless etc stop acting like Beyonce last top 10 before DIL wasn’t telephone kiii Beyonce needed Gaga for relevancy don’t forget.
Wow your taste is awful then…
Katy was decent but why the Lana and Beyonce fans so pressed?
Really b****??
The only pressed b**** is gaga
Having to go after Katy for using
A green wig and a mechanical horse .
On twitter.
Like didn’t she rip off Madonna tho??
But doesn’t Beyonce rip off everyone from Shakira to Ciara Lmao sit down Katy and Bey aint s***.
SCREAMS!!!! HORRIBLE.
Didn´t you love her a few months ago? LOL
Yass clock his tea sis!@
No gaga ain’t s***
When will u understand that??
Like I can have my differences with all this other stans
But u monsters I just can’t .
I personality don’t have nothing against ur fave but she
Will never be superior to beyonce never !!!
She sold more records and is more talented. She has more impact she is the true heir to the throne.
All of Fadga’s impact was has been left in 2011. After that everyone went back to themselves, including Katy and even Nicki.
My ears are phuckin BLEEDING
The Queen better serve!
How do u struggle to sing a song like roar or wide awake that requires basically NO VOCAL ABILITY, I could probably slay Katy’s voice if I tried smh
People saying Katy White Trash Perry is a good performer and singer need to get a life. She can’t sing. Yall need to search the internet for REAL singers and musicians. Katy Perry is not a good example of a singer. Sorry for ya !
