felt like a toddler with an ipad at the katy perry concert last night—my review of this entirely overwhelming show for the guardian: www.theguardian.com/music/2025/o...

Katy Perry review – like being high on Haribo while trapped in a theme park

In a fun but frenetic show, the star hangs off props, wears a glove that shoots pyrotechnics and generally distracts from her own energy and charisma

Can't believe she actually said this shit

[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Out on tour with The Smashing Pumpkins Nature kids, I, they don't have no function I don't understand what they mean
And I could really give a fuck
The Stone Temple Pilots, they're elegant bachelors They're foxy to me, are they foxy to you?
I will agree they deserve absolutely nothing
Nothing more than me
