Ex-husband arrest for rape.

Lambasted for a joyride.

On the other hand, she still has some great assets to fall forward on.

Funny last line there.

Quickly, can we review why the Internet hates her? Her music isn't totally my thing but if it comes on the web radio I don't switch. She's pretty and seems to be successful. Is it just Swifty hate?

Nah, Taylor Swift keeps putting out hits that her fans love. Katy Perry fell off YEARS ago and has been desperately clinging to relevancy. She filled a very specific niche of music in her hayday that no longer really exists

Her public personality comes off as very.......shallow. She can sing and has, uh, some desirable assets but she's very much a product of record industry more than just a participant. So in a way she represents a lot of what is wrong with the industry and people don't like that

Anyway, I feel kind of bad dunking on her like that. I don't hate her or anything, just wanted to explain why she's disliked.

But like... Has she actually done anything shitty? Seems like the level of people hating her is disproportionate.

Sorry, I realise you don't necessarily know, but I'm confused by it tbh

No, she never did anything particularly shitty. As far as rich people go, she's really not all that bad.. She is just an incredibly bland celebrity that is seemingly everywhere still.

I feel the same way about Jimmy Fallon. So tired of seeing both of them
