Speaker 1 (00:00):
Mix Wanted two Going three, Max and Ellie in the morning.
Let's get some news and poor Katie Perry. What's wrong
with Well, they're calling her comeback as one of the
biggest and most notorious flops in pop music history.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
Oh yes, I liked it too.

Speaker 1 (00:19):
I feel like it was absolutely wonderful. Unfortunately, critics haven't
been so kind. People have called it dated, people have
called it disastrous. One critic said he felt stupider every
time they listened to it, So it hasn't gone well.
But there's also a bit of a backstory to this.
She's collaborated with doctor Luke on this, and of course
it is a big female empowerman anthem. Now why is

(00:39):
that interesting? Well, Katy Perry and Kesha were sort of
coming up through the ranks together, and Kesha has accused
doctor Luke of sexual, physical, and emotional abuse in a lawsuit,
so there's a bit of yeah, yeah, so well that
he's denied all allegations, et cetera, et cetera. But as
you can imagine, that's put a bit of a taint
on everything behind the scenes and with her peers, and
unfortunately for all all of us, she got into the Spotify,

(01:02):
play like top forty playlists in the charts for a
day and then dropped out.

Speaker 3 (01:06):
I mean, it's a day more than you and I
will be in there, but I think she'd rather be
in there a little longer.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
Yeah, so she's already teasing another single to come out.
Her new album, The Full Thing, is due for release
next month, so we'll see how it goes. Come on, Katie,
I believe he's still a firework to us.
