Customer comments on this selection.
 To Amazon: Please move this cd out from the music section
What's changed in cheap clueless teeny bopper market driven pop? Nothing. The more things change...
Total garbage!
I can't believe all the 5-star ratings for this CD, this has to be a joke! I would give this 0 stars if I could.
While somewhat catchy, the hyper-produced songs have a familiar radio-ready quality that becomes infuriatingly mind-numbing over time, and Perry's vocals sound like a less-soulful Kelly Clarkson at best, a drunken, spurned sorority girl at worst.
Madonna and Perez Hilton may be fans, then, but if you've got even a passing interest in actually enjoying a record, don't buy this one.
 Not what I expected
Katy Perry is a great singer and has the right idea with her songs. However, the musical aspect of the other tunes besides the two radio hits kind of misses the mark. Such a shame for a talented person such as she.
BORING.....UGHHH.....
THIS IS TRULY THE YEARS BIGGEST SLEEPER....AND I DON'T MEAN THAT IN A GOOD WAY....DID I MENTION THIS IS THE MOST BORING PIECE OF MUSIC(IM NOT SURE IF IT SHOULD BE CALLED THAT). WHEN LISTENING USE CAUTION. COULD POSSIBLY MAKE EARS BLEED.
 Katy Perry Tackles Gender Stereotypes
There are a lot of things that work here, unlike pop albums that are hodge-podges of hits and misses. Perry's unifying theme here is gender stereotypes. From 'One of The Boys' to 'I Kissed a Girl' to 'Ur So Gay' to 'Mannequin,' Perry satirizes popular conceptions of what it means to be female or male. Yet she sincerely paints a picture of loving and longing on other tracks on like 'Thinking of You,' 'Lost,' and 'I'm Still Breathing.' This album is very listenable, song-for-song, with lots of clever hooks. The production is solid, but Perry's capable voice is what really shines here. She is successful where the recent efforts of artists like Avril Lavigne, Britney Spears, and Alanis Morrisette fall flat.
