Katy Perry Doesn’t Care About Taylor Swift, She Would Rather Focus On Her Own Career
Katy Perry doesn’t care about Taylor Swift’s “Bad Blood” music video. In fact, she would rather focus on more important things like her own music career. Katy Perry, 30, and Taylor Swift, 25, have been in a feud that includes backup dancers and John Mayer.
Perry did get to see the “Bad Blood” music video, along with 3 million other people who watched the 2015 Billboard Music Awards on Sunday night. The “Dark Horse” singer felt that Swift was a little try hard in her music video, an alleged Hollywood insider said to the report.
“She saw it. She thought the video was a little desperate and that she tried too hard, but she isn’t going to worry about Taylor too much because she has her own career to worry about. She felt slighted with the song but the video didn’t really bother her.”
“Bad Blood” – the fourth single from Taylor Swift’s 1989 album – is said to be about the alleged feud between Swift and Perry. The singer hinted that Perry sabotaged her Red tour by hiring Swift’s backup dancers for her own California Dreams Tour.
“Oh, we’re just straight-up enemies. And it wasn’t even about a guy! It had to do with business. She basically tried to sabotage an entire arena tour. She tried to hire a bunch of people out from under me… I don’t think there would be any personal problem if she weren’t competitive.”
Their feud may also have to do with the fact they both dated John Mayer. Swift dated the “Your Body is a Wonderland” crooner back in 2010. She also penned the song “Dear John” about him shortly after they broke up. Perry then dated Mayer two years later.
There have been reports that Swift may have outright dissed Perry in the “Bad Blood” music video. Selena Gomez, 22, portrayed as Arsyn, wore a dark bob haircut with bangs. She looked somewhat similar to Katy Perry in the music video.
Katy Perry allegedly dissed Taylor Swift at her 2015 Super Bowl Halftime show when she had her backup dancers dress in red polka dot bikinis. Swift used to be photographed in the retro-style bikinis on her beach trips. Perry’s diss was a subtle clue, while Swift’s diss was an obvious one, according to the Hollywood Life report.
Perry has been staying quiet on social media. She hasn’t shared or posted anything in nearly five days on Instagram on Twitter. Maybe Perry doesn’t want to be bombarded by all of the talk surrounding the “Bad Blood” music video. Or, maybe she is laying low until the hype dies down. Perry has been busy traveling and performing on her Prismatic World Tour.
