Katy Perry Further Explains Her Beef With the ‘Alejandro’ Video

Katy Perry got herself a little press not too long ago by making comment on her Twitter page about entertainers using blasphemy in their performances. She Tweeted,”Using blasphemy as entertainment is as cheap as a comedian telling a fart joke,” and many suspected that comment was her response to Lady Gaga’s recently released music video for ‘Alejandro’.

When asked by The Advocate (it’s a good interview, you should read it) whom she was directing that statement toward, Katy replied, “Anyone. Whether it’s Madonna hanging on a cross or Russell using the Lord’s name in vain, it makes me feel … I guess I’m just sensitive to it. But the media loves to create these catfights with women — it’s almost a fetish. Sometimes you see it with bands like Blur and Oasis, but rarely you see it between anyone but girls because guys get off on the whole idea. I’m a huge fan of Lady Gaga, and hundreds of my tweets have been dedicated to her brilliance.”

Although Katy indirectly said that, although they haven’t spoken, there’s no unsettled beef between the two pop stars.

While there’s something to be said for Katy’s defense of her former religion, I do think it’s fairly hypocritical of her to pick and choose what she’s offended by in such a clearly biased fashion. To her blasphemy is cheap, but I’ve never seen Lady Gaga shoot whipped topping out of her breasts. Something tells me the church might not like that much, either. Katy Perry usually seems to be pretty judgment-free, so it’s odd to me why she can’t see that her stance on this is shocking if nothing else.

  • Her beef with Alejandro is that it’s a better song/video than California Gurls. Simple as that. Sour grapes, anyone?

  • Was it GQ Katy Perry was in recently? Regardless, I doubt the church would have anything against her whip cream shooting bra and more to say about that magazine shoot that had a pic of her in underwear with a rosary as a necklace. Whatever makes money right?

  • She clarified her point in the Rolling Stone that made it sound a little better. Something along the lines of sex is fine but sex mixing with sexuality crosses a line. I guess it makes sense to me, whip cream ejaculation is just sex for spectacle, sex with jesus is just like flipping off God

  • single people gather here, for the one common goal. Search and meet their friends or dream lovers!!! it always worths the efforts to try! life is a journey, no body wants to be alone! anyway, that’s what I heard from a hot and sincere person from== http://richflirts ==

  • On the one hand, I can be a bit sensitive about sacrilegious depictions of symbols from my own religion — but, then again, what Lady Gaga did in the Alejandro video wouldn’t have offended me (or likely anyone else of my faith), so it’s kind of “apples and oranges,” if you will forgive the trite expression.

    On the other hand, when it’s all in good fun — which Lady Gaga’s videos pretty much always are — it does not make sense to be sour about it. And Katy Perry needs to work out her issues with humorous and entertaining sacrilege if she’s going to stay with Russell Brand. I mean, who says “saying the Lord’s name in vain” anymore?

    And for a final note, Katy Perry (like the True Blood Magister) need to realize that blasphemy is spoken; sacrilege is an offense against that which is considered to be sacred, and blasphemy is merely one form of it.

  • Does anyone else squint when they look at her? There’s something wrong there. Reminds me of the robot women in Austin Powers (sorry for archaic reference younger peoples. It’s a movie, not an energy drink.). She just feels so hollow. As if someone sucked out her cool and implanted greed. and jesus. I love how people who use sex to sell their product feel just fine about discussing values.
    actually… mary magdalene being a whore is using sex to sell jesus! kinky!
