Katy Perry is amongst a wide array of female pop artist who have carved out their own version of sexy. Katy Perry has so far owned the naughty nerd look down to a science. In her Rolling Stone interview, Katy talks her body image and a little politics.
“I started praying for [breasts] when I was, like, 11,”
“God answered [my] prayer above and beyond, by, like, 100 times, until I was like, ‘Please, stop, God. I can’t see my feet anymore. Please stop!’
“I was a lot more rectangular then. I didn’t understand my body. So, what I did was, I started taping them down. How long did I tape them down for? Probably until I was about 19. And, no, I don’t have any psychological pain because of it.”
I didn’t understand my body. Someone in sixth grade called me ‘Over-the-shoulder boulder holder.’ I didn’t know I could use them. So, what I did was, I started taping them down. How long did I tape them down for? Probably until I was about 19. And, no, I don’t have any psychological pain because of it.”
Katy Perry on politics
“It just feels like the thing running our country (America) is a bank, money. I know it sounds like an intense viewpoint, but I’m only slowly but surely getting the wool taken off my eyes.
“I think we are largely in desperate need of revolutionary change in the way our mindset is. Our priority is fame, and people’s wellness is way low. I saw this knowing full well that I’m a part of the problem. I’m playing the game, though I am trying to reroute.”
The bigger question is whether Katy Perry’s fan will accept her new image if this transformation ever happens. In the meantime, check out Katy Perry’s behind the scenes shoot with Rolling Stone
