Review Excerpts
- "Her ideas about gender and sexuality seem as situational as her highly amalgamated style. Hers is a neatly commodified kind of rebellion: looks from Dita von Teese, production by way of Britney Spears and Alanis Morissette, vocals à la Ashlee Simpson and Avril Lavigne".
- "Perry's primary talent is for getting tongues wagging - hence the endorsement of Madonna and Perez Hilton - and that her debut album is more fun to blog about than to listen to".
- "Perry confuses political incorrectness with being subversive on tracks like "Hot n Cold," in which she, in the process of skewering guys who change their minds "like girls change clothes," just winds up sounding mildly sexist".
