“This isn’t the kickoff single for my next record, but it’s a great way to share with the world this wonderful news of love.”
The quote above, lifted from Katy Perry‘s recent chat with Australia’s NOVA FM, references the singer’s latest single, ‘Never Worn White.’
Released March 5, ‘White’ instantly shot to the top of digital sales tallies around the world (as we reported here) – a response we’re sure was the impetus for the diva’s global push of the tune. Pursuing promotional opportunities in the United Kingdom and Australia (where she also brought down the house at the Women’s World Cup on International Women’s Day), the diva’s day of radio, Web, and television interviews culminated when she took to ‘The Project’ (March 10).
While there, she not only rendered the first televised performance of ‘White’ but also dished on a number of hot topics ranging from her recently announced pregnancy, releasing new music over the summer, the loss of her grandmother, and more.

Camila can relate to when an album bombs ? ?
Katy, at this point, you could do a duet WITH the baby, and this song still won’t go anywhere and neither will any song you release moving forward. Your career is DONE. You shaded Britney Spears 3 times and this is your KARMA! Sit down, enjoy your man and your family. Music is done for you. Continue performing the first 3 albums. We don’t want anything new. K, thanks.
Well I hope her therapist on standby cuz this new album will flop too
???
Nah!! Katy just ride American idol money bag. Ride that ride till you can’t ride no more.
She gets DEPRESSED when an album of trash tanks??????? Are you kidding me? There are people with Cancer. Hungry. Homeless. GIRL STFU your 1 flopped Album – means NOTHING. YOUR WORTH MILLIONS STFU
You must be 9. Did you pay attention in psychology class in school???? Artists are artists because they are following their dreams – being an artist is their PURPOSE in life. Success for an artist = validation of purpose. FLOP ALBUM = INTERNAL CONFLICT THAT ARTIST DOES NOT HAVE PUROSE AND CANNOT SEE SUCCESSFUL FUTURE = DEPRESSION.
Some artists use their wealth to help homeless, and people without resources to be able to eat – so before you bash her – know that some artists use their wealth to help others. WHAT ARE TOU DOING??? ???
@Haterz Gon’ Hate: BS.
If no big money were lost in a flop album, little to no internal conflict would inflict an “artist”.
It’s when the label wants its album advance back, and you haven’t sold enough to pay it or made profit yourself, that depression hits hard.
Katy had gone too far infantilizing fans on Witless. Going from tongue-in-cheek brunette pop bombshell to manic blonde pixie cut faux woke ft. Quavo has hurt her brand.
I think she (quadruple Scorpio) is A LOT darker than her Legally Blonde persona. Rise was an excellent song! But she thought she’d use the Clinton vs. Trump era to her artistic advantage and turn her album’s direction around very last minute. Well, that backfired.
Brainless pop is her lane.
Sadly for her.
shout out to beyonce…..lemonade..we wont mention whitney houston but shout out to bebe
WELL IDOT DYE YOUR HAIR BACK BLACK AND YOU WONT SEE THE FLOP SALES
