You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
Liking Katy Perry and Lady Gaga was a big part of my self-discovery back when I first came out as queer, so they get a pass from me
You can tell it's not by P!nk because every P!nk song sounds exactly like every other P!nk song and Katy Perry songs don't sound like The Only P!nk Song.

You know what used to annoy my brother and sister to no end?
When "California Gurls" would come on the radio and I would sing the lyrics to "TiK ToK" over it, or vice versa.
They have the same beat and everything, it's hilarious.

That's a bit unfair. She has a decent stylistic range. It's just that she writes a lot of songs in similar keys and modes and her production, regardless of instrumentation or emotional content, tends to be very samey, which makes even very different songs blend into one another. It's an affliction common to a lot of quasi-famous pop-punk and alt-rock musicians, but I think it hits P!nk harder because, were said production less monotonous, I think her music would be pretty enjoyable where a lot of similar acts just aren't that varied to begin with.
Whatever persona she's created is closer to reality than whatever Katy Perry's invented, but then I don't think that's inherently a knock against either of them.

At least it doesn't make me want to rip my ears out.

she's still a rock star
