Katy Perry

[donuttiest]

On the back of the whole Russell Brand trial, David Walliams is under the spot light...and now even Jonathon Ross has a thread started (is he next) and it got me thinking...

what about Katy Perry? She has multiple incidences of documented sexual misconduct againt young lads (TV show and music video) where clearly there was a power imbalance.

Ruby Rose reported her rubbing her vagina in her face. I recall at the time mumsnet posters were saying it was 'gross'. Imagine downplaying someone being sexually assaulted by simply saying it was gross behaviour?

I have expected Katy Perry to have been cancelled by now or at the very least for the Brand trial to have thrown light back on to her past behaviour.

However, seemingly her gender lets her off the hook, and she continues to enjoy a fruitful career, but why?

I've seen MN posters display sympathy towards KP during the RB saga but I'm wondering why people are happy to look the other way when it comes to her conduct?

Does she continue to enjoy a fruitful career? All I ever see about her is that her last few records have flopped, she (rightfully) got lambasted for cos playing as an astronaut...She's very much seen as a 'has been' these days.

Katy has annoyed me by a while ago saying at some point she will tell her truth about her marriage to brand, yeah when you’re even more irrelevant and need to make some cash you mean? She should’ve spoke up a long time ago if she knows anything about the kind of guy he was

No, she’s very much cringe these days !

Her old singles/abums had a resurrgence in the charts, she's toured most of 2026 including headlining some major summer festivals.

I would say that's pretty conclusive evidence that people are happy to overlook her commited sexual assault and sexual misconduct against people,

Even the poster above simply describes her as cringe. People simply don't care or downplay sexual assaults commited by females. It's pretty disgusting. SA is SA it shouldn't be ignored or minimised just because the person committing it is a woman.

Isn’t she planning to tell her side of the Brand story in a book / documentary? I believe that’s the alleged plan. I assume that will be quickly brought forward if it’s not already well underway so she can make as much £££ from it as possible.

I wonder why you didn’t mention the Australian police are investigating this allegation as we speak. She’s not been let off the hook. You are telling half a story to be sensational. If you can be bothered to report allegations, then please be bothered to look up the latest on the case and report it. But of course I know why, not such a good story when you give both sides is it? I don’t give two hoots about Perry, but I do care about due course and police investigations.

J-Lo was dragged into the P Diddy stuff, and Beyoncé into the Jay Z stuff. Katy Perry will now go through similar, I expect…

My expectation would be that there is investigation, reporting, and if it meets threshold legal action of the same diligence I would expect from the investigation of anyone who behaves inappropriately. It’s highly unusual for a woman to behave that way so you would think investigative journalists would be very keen to go for this.

Firstly it is SEX not gender (at least use the correct term if you are going to try to start nasty rumours)

Second, I’m sure you know a lot about this so can produce the relevant evidence?

Btw the JR thread was hidden while MN take a look

Didn’t Katy Perry also fingerbang Anna Kendrick’s cleavage?

Her and Brand deserved each other.

I'm not being sensationalist, I'm pointing out double standards. Katy Perry has been proven to have commited acts of sexual misconduct ..there's literally tv footage of it. Yet she continues to enjoy a healthy career.

She's been accused of vile SA and although it's getting investigated there's very little new coverage and instead she gets viewed as a victim as people only remember he as the spouse of RB, as opposed to a proven perpetrator of sexual crimes herself.

Even on MN posters are flooding a thread on JR to comment despite no investigation or allegations against him. It's clear double standards. Male pepetrators are being brought to justice which is great but female perpetrators simply aren't viewed in the same light and get away with it with no career damage.
