To pursue the commercial success following the controversial bi-curious anthem, I Kissed A Girl, Perry released the well-fed 80's synth, Hot n Cold, as her debut album's second single. The track received mixed reviews upon release. And in spite of missing the top position, the track still managed to peak #03 on Billboard Hot 100, becoming her second consecutive single to notched inside the Top 10. It also had a stable run in US chart for 39 weeks, and is certified 8X Platinum as of 2019.

A music video was later released to accompany the single, where Perry's dressed up as a bride then boldly did a glamorous guilt hunt after the groom hesitated to answer the wedding vows. It features the growing quirkiness she will demonstrate in following years; like the wardrobe changes, flash mobs and even the guest appearance of a zebra as her pet.

With this new milestone, Hot n Cold is hailed as the fifth most watched music video of 2000's decade. In addition, the single also appointed as Perry's sixth videography to surpassed the billion views mark, while extending her reign as the most watched female act channel on YouTube with 20.7B accumulated views.

Congratulations, Katy Perry!katy-hot.jpg.01b24b20b63c758082181eeb82f618e2.jpg

Good for her!

 

Also, so freaky to think how she went from a megastar to a borderline B act, flop starlet in such a short span. :cheese_Britney_awkward_cringe_eek:

 

Makes one realise the power of a megastar like Brit :yaknow_britney_xfactor_X_factor_talk_tell_chat_you_know:

She could be there on top again, but with black long hair, a cute video and song produced by Max Martin, but it's like she doesn't want it? :jabba_monster_gross_ew_disgusting_chew:

Teenager Dream being more impactful than 1989 must be a joke. ezgif-3-d0eb933f05c8.gif

Teenage Dream paved way for bigger sugary pop releases like Nicki Minaj's Super Bass, Meghan Trainor's All About That Bass and even her own era like PRISM

And if you will consider Shake It Off better than any singles from Teenage Dream, girl you must be deaf. I used to like Taylor but her pop singles are :riha_rihanna_cackle_laughing_lol_haha_hehe_lmao_hand:.

Even Hey Hey Hey has more class than any of her lead singles.

A generic pop album released when everybody was already doing what she had done? Wow, amazing! ezgif-3-d0eb933f05c8.gif

Both singles are really bad, to be honest. ezgif-3-d0eb933f05c8.gif
