To paraphrase one of David Spade's best Hollywood Minute episodes: Hey, Katy, Zooey Deschanel called. She wants her DNA back.

Seriously, the first time I ever saw or heard of this girl, she was an entry on Go Fug, and I went, "NO! Zooey, honey, what are you WEARING?!" And then I read further and was even more confused that someone could look so exactly like Zooey Deschanel and not be her.
Now that I've read quotes of hers and heard to her inane, dated, irritating song, I think Katy's insufferable. Also talentless. I heard a live version of that stupid song and it was nearly unlistenable.

I hate that song and the song's popularity shows how there is no accounting for taste. I heard Katie herself interviewed and I found her very loud and annoying. Her 15 minutes are up.

Total one hit wonder. Her song is catchy (especially the chorus), but I can't see her having lasting appeal. She's like a cheesier, singing version of Dita Von Teese.

I'm still not entirely convinced that she, Zooey Deschanel, and Emily Blunt aren't the same person.  Her song is not that great, but the radio stations around here play it like there is no tomorrow! I listened to clips of her cd on itunes and wasn't really feeling any of the songs. If she wants to have a career that lasts longer than the summer, she needs to find a new schtick. That whole "cutesy, space cadet" thing she does in interviews is getting old already. |

She's not just a cutesy space cadet. She's a cutesy space cadet who may or may not kiss another girl because she likes it. She's not as one-note as you make her out to be.  |

Why is this song a hit?
Didn't Jill Sobule do it better in the 1990s?

She's soooooo deep ya'll. I am all for fun music or whatever, but the song annoys me because it reminds me of some of the girls I go to school with. They don't kiss other girls to truly explore their sexuality, they do it because "OMGZ, steve is watching! Kiss me sarah! He'll think it's so hawt and taboo!!!".  |

Ugh. Not only is her song hackneyed, it's not even reflective of her own hackiness - she's as a commercial a creation as you can get. She's the fourth writer of that song, and the other three are all basically pop machines (Max Martin and Cathy Dennis among them). When someone has worked with the Matrix and Glen Ballard and Max Martin et. al., I can't really take their songs or their image as being in any way authentic. That wouldn't be a bad thing if the music was good, or if she didn't put on her little act in the press about how naughty she's become. She's totally not Christian anymore, you know! She's all retro and quirky! How unique! She's Avril Lavigne 2.0.
