It’s been six years since Katy Perry announced
herself with “I Kissed a Girl,” which became her first hit single (and somehow
made Chapstick sexy). Ever since, her immense popularity has stemmed largely
from her ability to straddle that divide between Madonna (one of her idols) and
girl next door. Far more wholesome than that twisted genius Lady Gaga, Perry
still exudes vastly more heat and sensuality than, say, Taylor Swift.
Part of that’s due to Perry’s top-heavy
physicality, but her sly lyrics and full-throated delivery deserve credit, too.
In her music, all of which she co-writes, she handily mixes innocence with
lust. She wants to be your homecoming queen and made her mark
singing about reading Seventeen and learning how to shave her
legs. But she also yearns to melt your Popsicle and see
your peacock, cock, cock.
