As a rule, katy is indeed deeply uninteresting and irritating. Marrying Russell Brand and wearing different coloured PVC outfits does not made you 'wacky', madam. But am quite enjoying the progression of her videos. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND why Calirfornia Gurls was nominated for so many awards it was just hideous. But I did like the Fireworks video and this immensely. |

I actually really like a lot of her current album. There're quite a few very, very strong songs on it, of which "Firework" is definitely one. It's an absolutely *cracking* tune. Her videos don't really do much for me at all, but this latest one is definitely her best. |

Katy Perry rewrites 18-year-old Nielsen airplay history As "E.T." spends a third week atop Pop Songs, Katy Perry rewrites her own mark for the most weekly plays for any title in the 18-year history of the Nielsen BDS-based mainstream top 40 radio airplay survey. "E.T.," featuring Kanye West, logged 12,330 plays on all 131 Pop Songs reporters in the April 25-May 1 tracking week (an average of 94 plays per station), besting the previous record of 12,159 plays set by Perry's "California Gurls," featuring Snoop Dogg, on the chart dated July 17, 2010. Underscoring her Pop Songs mastery, Perry boasts the top four titles with the highest weekly plays totals in the chart's archives, an achievement that she's earned with the first four singles from her second Capitol Records album, "Teenage Dream." Here is a look at the 10 songs with the highest weekly Pop Songs plays sums: Plays, Title, Artist(s), Chart Date 12,330, "E.T.," Katy Perry featuring Kanye West, May 14, 2011 12,159, "California Gurls," Katy Perry feat. Snoop Dogg, July 17, 2010 11,857, "Firework," Katy Perry, Jan. 22, 2011 11,841, "Teenage Dream," Katy Perry, Oct. 16, 2010 11,720, "Grenade," Bruno Mars, Feb. 5, 2011 11,686, "Dynamite," Taio Cruz, Sept. 18, 2010 11,676, "Just the Way You Are," Bruno Mars, Oct. 30, 2010 11,428, "Just a Dream," Nelly, Nov. 20, 2010 11,234, "Love the Way You Lie," Eminem feat. Rihanna, Aug. 28, 2010 11,040, "Only Girl (In the World)," Rihanna, Dec. 18, 2010 The Pop Songs weekly plays record is the latest honor that Perry has added to her chart resume courtesy of "E.T." When "E.T." ascended to the Pop Songs summit two weeks ago, following "California Girls," the title cut from "Teenage Dream" and "Firework," the album became just the third in the chart's history to yield a quartet of leaders. Similarly, with the coronation of "E.T." on the Billboard Hot 100 dated April 9, "Teenage Dream" became only the ninth album to spawn at least four No. 1s since the chart's launch the week of Aug. 4, 1958. Perry could further emerge victorious at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards, which will air live on ABC May 22 at 8 p.m. ET. Among her nine nominations, Perry is up for Top Pop Artist; "Teenage Dream" will compete for Top Pop Album; and, three of the five nominees in the category of Top Pop Songs belong to Perry: "California Gurls," "Teenage Dream" and "Firework." All charts will be refeshed Thursday (May 5) on Billboard.com. http://www.billboard.com/news/lady-gaga-judas-video-to-premiere-in-two-1005166102.story#/column/chartbeat/katy-perry-s-e-t-lands-pop-songs-plays-record-1005166042.story |

This should be her 5th #1 from Teenage Dream. Who would have thought that *Katy Perry* would tie MJ's record? |

Indeed. Something's really not right with the world right now. Oh well, it's a fun song. |

I have to confess I love this song - but it's probably because it sounds so much like t.A.T.u.! I really like about 3/4 of the album - but she makes kind of nauseous. She's a bit 'Benny Hill' if you know what I mean.. |

As much as I love the song, I have to agree. I watched AI last week specifically to see this performance, and it was hideous. Like a drag act doing a young Elizabeth Taylor in fancy dress, plodding along the stage and scared by the black man who looks like he's about to mug her. SHITTEOUS yet enough to make America put it back to the top of the |

Seriously not. She might as well have just written on the cover: "Look how wacky I am! I'm maaaad, me!" |

I agree. I really like a LOT of her album, but she's quite difficult to like as a person. Her "I'm so kooky" routine is a bit much. |

"E.T." by Katy Perry featuring Kanye West dips to #2, but it's still a history-making week for the pop star, who becomes the first artist in the history of the Hot 100 to remain in the top 10 for a full year. Perry's streak began with "California Gurls" (featuring Snoop Dogg), which debuted at #2 in the week ending May 16, 2010. It has continued with "Teenage Dream," "Firework" and "E.T." (featuring Kanye West). I have still more good news for Perry. "E.T." tops the 3 million mark in digital sales this week. It's Perry's sixth song to reach that plateau, which is more than any other artist in digital history. Rihanna is in second place with five songs, a tally that includes both lead and featured performances. Perry has been in the lead position on all six of her 3-million-sellers. Perry's songs to top the 3 million mark are (in chronological order) "I Kissed A Girl" (which is up to 4,046,000, per Nielsen SoundScan), "Hot N Cold" (4,878,000), "California Gurls" (featuring Snoop Dogg, 4,798,000), "Teenage Dream" (3,660,000), "Firework" (4,265,000) and now "E.T." (3,157,000). |

This says more about the state of American charts rather than the quality of her music |
