Katy Perry Calls New “Woman’s World” Song Satire After Criticism
It’s Katy Perry’s world, and those that get it get it.
And those who don’t may have missed the point. After the 39-year-old’s music video for her newest single “Woman’s World” received some criticism from those who felt it to be a dated perspective on feminism, Katy is revealing that was kind of the intention.
In a July 14 Instagram post—which she captioned, “YOU CAN DO ANYTHING! EVEN SATIRE!”—Katy shared a behind-the-scenes clip of the filming process, during which she spoke to the satirical nature of the video.
“We’re kind of just having fun being a bit sarcastic with it,” she explained in the clip, while standing on the video’s construction site set. “It’s very slapstick, and very on the nose.”
In the scene in question, Katy dances alongside a group of women in revealing construction worker-inspired uniforms before she gets crushed by an anvil.
“With this set, it’s like, ‘Oooh, we’re not about the male gaze, but we really are about the male gaze,’ and we’re really overplaying it because I’m about to get smashed,” she explained. “Which is like a reset for my idea of feminine divine. It’s a whole different world after this.”
