Katy Perry made so much money on “American Idol,” maybe she’s not serious about her recording career.
This week, Katy dropped the second single, “Lifetimes,” from her September album. It’s a dud. Gone in a week. Now 99 on iTunes. Goodbye.
“Lifetimes” follows “Woman’s World,” the first single, was also DOA.
This doesn’t bode well for the album, called, strangely, “143.” The numbers 1 – 4 – 3 correlate into “I Love You.”
But what the heck is going on here? Today, the country of Spain in investigating if Katy and Orlando Bloom, her partner, shot the “Lifetimes” in a protected area of the country without permission.
The video’s plot is Katy and Orlando frolicking, having a great time, partying like there’s no tomorrow. They’re also jumping out of a helicopter and into the sea.
There doesn’t seem to be much thought about the marketing of “143.” Two dead singles should cause panic. Actually, the first one should have gotten Katy’s behind onto TV, performing her songs like crazy wherever she could. When you add in the controversy of Perry working with Dr. Luke as her producer, “143” is turning into a possible Jennifer Lopez like disaster.
