What is the deal with everyone hating on Katy Perry?

I've been seeing the clips of Katy Perry being stuck in a plastic bottle trying to get on stage, and how the comments are just saying how she's so annoying or dumb.

https://youtu.be/DVvRdjaR58Y?is=kYoiJjzdFNdOXHVe

I mean I'm not the biggest fan on Katy Perry. I don't know what she's done music-wise since like 2012. I just know that she went to space somewhat recently.

So what am I missing?

  The internet was hating on her way before that. Her music slapped in the 2010s but tastes changed and she didn't. Since the late 2010s the internet has generally been negative towards her for both musical and personal life reasons.

  The funny thing is he’s also dating Justin Trudeau who has strong opinions about carbon taxing and overall green initiatives. Katy Perry went to space and basically spewed about the same amount of carbon as an average person would produce in a year.

  I think she rubbed people the wrong way from the start, having the audacity to be a woman making no apologies for her presence in the world and dressing however she wanted. Which of course caused people to be angry when she didn't lie down and spread her legs for them. And by 'people', I of course mean misogynists, male and female and NB alike. But people have been tossing shit her way since the beginning: \~ Her original hit 'I Kissed a Girl' was seen as fetishising lesbianism. \~ She had a 'pop cartoon' style of music videos and outfits for her tours, and was happy to look kind of goofy \~ She had a string of hits which were massively overplayed on radio \~ She married Russell Brand in a Hindu ceremony and was married for 14 months \~ She hasn't changed her music style or topped the charts since the 2010s \~ Her space flight with a bunch of other women was seen as 'performative' and when she came back and kissed the ground then talked about being 'so connected to love' \~ Her most recent single, viewed as an attempt of a comeback is titled 'Woman's World', is touted as female empowerment anthem and was produced by Dr Luke, who, among other things, has faced sexual assault accusations from Kesha (I listened to about half of it before I turned it off; the lyrics are banal, and it's hard to view it as 'empowerment' when it's so clearly filmed for the male gaze) \~ She also has a single written by Sia, who was correctly dunked on for her horrible movie 'Music' which depicted autism in an incredibly inaccurate and offensive way. While I've never really cared about Katy Perry, and while some of these criticisms are valid, I wouldn't say everyone 'hates her' as she's one of the most successful women in pop music. And while her current singles haven't had the success of her original hits, she's still managing to sell tours and make music so clearly a lot of people love her. But also, people are doing what they do best, and that's taking to the internet to not only shame her, but also attack her 4 year old child, which is grotesque. I do believe there's a lot of misogyny at play here as well as ageism, given Perry is 39 and we all know women over 35 have no value in the eyes of the world. As for the most recent stunt with the giant plastic bottle, well, what did she expect was gonna happen? It wasn't a very well thought out idea. She actually got really lucky because I could easily see a situation where people ripped it open to try and get hold of her. But people are making jokes about Katy being 'tossed around like a plastic bag in the wind' which is a line from one of her hit songs, 'Firework'. And I admit, that's kinda funny.

u/morto00x101401.08.2026, 06:35
Answer: She's been trying to make a come back. But her music style feels the same as 10 years ago. She also went to space in one of the Blue Origin launches and started singing one of her songs. Then kiss the ground when they landed which is super cringey since they were only up there for 11 minutes. She also made the news lately since she's dating Canada's former Prime Minister, who himself get lots of hate because politics.

You are hearing a lot about her lately because last week she tried to enter the stage by crowdsurfing in a giant inflatable and people kept carrying it around all over the stadium instead of taking her to the stage. That shit only works if you are Rammstein.

  It's not just that her comeback music is the same as 10 years ago, it's that it's tone deaf and dreadful. The big first single 'Women's World' got totally panned for being a completely clueless, failed attempt at a feminist message.

Answer: Permalinking my own answer from another thread. https://www.reddit.com/r/OutOfTheLoop/comments/1jv6676/whats_up_with_people_wishing_katy_perry_to_die_in/mm819h1/ To summarize she's gotten a lot of negative press, particularly from the LGBTQ+ community. She's made a lot of tone deaf posts, showed support for Elon Musk, and went into space on the the Bezos rocket. Katy seems dense and not connected with reality, and keeps doing things that rub her fans the wrong way. She's also been dating Justin Trudeau randomly.
u/Macro_Seb18001.08.2026, 06:36
Answer: She went to space, kissed the earth when she got back, said we must save our wonderful planet. The same planet she harmed by doing some space tourism. So basically rich/famous people being unaware of their own actions. And now she's doing other dumb like getting in a giant bottle (how eco friendly) expecting people to get a grip on that thing and move her in one direction.
- u/TallShaggy2501.08.2026, 07:08

  The worst part of that is her stunt announcing a tour from space, completely usurping attention from Amanda Nguyen, a sexual assault survivor who put her space dreams on the back burner (just months before graduating) to be an advocate for other survivors. https://www.npr.org/2025/04/08/1243384803/nprs-book-of-the-day-amanda-nguyen-saving-five

Answer: She's become the internet's new punching bag. She's a safe target where everybody's basically decided she sucks so you can get some free easy laughs just by mentioning some of the, admittedly cringy, stuff she's done. Her persona strikes people as a bit fake and she's had some controversies in the past so when she's stumbled a bit in her career lately, the knives were already out and waiting for her. I believe the unstated goal is to drive her into some sort of Britney Spears-esque personal life crisis/meltdown so we can all then switch sides and pretend we were always in her corner and then pat ourselves on the back as we support her as she rebuilds her life. Remember kids, we never stopped burning witches, we just stopped using kindling and wooden stakes.

Answer: she’s had some SA accusations from a few people including Ruby Rose. People did notice it was off when she gave a boy his first kiss when he was clearly uncomfortable about it (I think it was American idol) but other people have come out with their stories recently as well.
- u/purplehayzz9401.08.2026, 07:05
  She also kissed the young boy I believe he was like 16 on American Idol and took his first kiss against his will. I’ve always been grossed out by her since then.

u/jiggabot1701.08.2026, 07:09
Answer: She's become the target of a lot of criticism and some of it at this point is just fueling itself.

[This video by Todd in the Shadows](https://youtu.be/OfoPiRzWnFY?is=UtWBPYPDohzQOjOk) does a really, really good job at showing how she went from being a hugely successful popstar to quite lame very abruptly. I think a lot of the goofiness of her schtick worked when she was putting out hits, but it comes off as cringey when the music isn't great and she hasn't had a good hit in like a decade at this point. This pretty firmly cemented her as a target of ridicule.

After putting out some flops, she started working again with a producer who helped her make her more successful music. But that guy has been pretty credibly accused of sexual assault by Kesha. Perry had dropped the producer when those allegations came out, but went back to working with him when she couldn't make a hit on her own. This hypocrisy adds a layer of self righteousness to ridiculing her. She seems like a bad person, so it feels good to make fun of her and see her fail.

Subsequent issues, like her riding on Blue Origin or having a dumb stageshow, exist in the wake of those two earlier points. They seem like big deals because she's become a punching bag, but they probably wouldn't have really stuck out in the zeitgeist otherwise. Now, every embarrassment she has just gathers more and more attention.

Answer: Because only one person I’ve seen mention it, but for me it all started with the fucking Dr. Luke shit. Asshole music producer who sexually assaulted, harassed, and physically abused Kesha for years and helped Katy with many of her early hits. Then well after all of this had come out, Katy worked with him on her new “female empowerment” song Woman’s World which was critically panned. She only barely even acknowledged the controversy and kinda just continued business as usual. The space shit was also dumb as hell, a bunch of rich ladies doing space tourism for no reason.
