Quote Of The Day
Filed under: Celebrity Feuds > Miley Cyrus > Katy Perry
"I'm not here to be a role model personality. I'm here to be in the business of fucking rock and roll. Being in the business of rock and roll means having an attitude, being sexy, being edgy and being unapologetic unless I do something wrong…I look up to people like Joan Jett, Pat Benatar, Freddie Mercury and Cyndi Lauper. I want to have that same type of appeal. If people want a role model, they can have Miley Cyrus."
- Katy Perry tells the new issue of YRB magazine

you go girl….
love katy.
I don't really look at Miley Cyrus as a great role model all the time.
But everything else is good :]
She is totally hot! Everything she says she should be!
looovee her even more now!
you go girl!!!!
So Hott Right now… Totally Fabulous.. TEAM KATY/MILEY
Hahha, that's great.
I hope the underaged-lesbian kiss
between Miley and Katy happens..i'd
love to hear the backlash;
hehe she's ace
first bitches
Miley Cyrus?
Ok.
damn straight!
anyone else think she looks hott here!
Stuff Miley, i say Katy is much better cause she stands for more than lip singing *coughMILEYcough*
lol ouch
i fucking love katy perrry.
hahaah and scence when is miley anyones rolemodel? ahahhaha.
hell yeah. who the fuck says just because you're famous you have to behave so fourteen year old girls can look up to you. you rock katy!!!
I totally Luv her!!!!
I dont think Miley is a rolemodel >> Hilary Duff she is a perfect Role model!
haha yeah i love the quote, but miley cyrus? a roll model? hmm..no.
How dare she talk about Joan and Freddie.
Not one thing rock and roll about this fucking poser and if she understood Joan and Freddie at all, she'd get that and not have the audacity to try to be in their league. (And the fact that she also mentions Cyndi and Pat, two extremely un-rock and roller people…ugh…)
I can't stand her more and more.
Yeah.Exactly.Miley and Jonases and all the rest of the Industryrobots pretending to make music.
Wellsaid.
Be yourself, and do what you love. You go Kate…
LOL
Wow. She's so hardcore.
I agree with MikeHunt's comment! Katy Perry is just a manufactured pop star. She is no different than Miley Cyrus. I can't wait until her next album bombs.
Rock n Roll? Is that why her songs are played on Pop stations??
haha now that's funny, who is she trying to kid? Rock and roll my ass, she is a POP singer, what an insult to rock and roll and to all the greats of that genre!
rock and roll? really though?
I love that she does not care what others think and that shes not afraid to be herself thats what being true to yourself means!
miley was a great role model but recently not anymore so
she's about as rock n roll as my grandmother.
love katy perry and all, but thats not rock music..not at all
hahahah
I LOVE YOU KATY PERRY!!!!!
lolz
Katy Perry is my fucking role model!
And jeeze, why's everyone on Mileys case?
Shit I'm 15 and doin worse shit than she is
Bad girls rule!
Plus I'd make out with Katy any day
GROAN. Katy Perry is not rock n' roll. The "I'm in the business of fucking rock" quote is sooo laughable. LAME!!!
I LOVE KATY PERRY!
haha niice.
i love katy!
LOL, she thinks she's rock, what a poser.
And there you have it. Nuff said!
/

The other day she was on Howard Stern and she told him she is dating some big ass black dude..lol I didnt know she was the type that dated black guys.. There is nothing wrong with that but I look at her a lil different now
First of all, Miley cyrus? a role model? Hahahaha RIGHT. Second of all. Katy Perry is far from rock n roll. Sorry hun but your song is pure POP!
LIAR. She was a fucking CHRISTIAN SINGER before she was into "rock and fucking roll". Yeah, whatever. KTP. Just get the fuck out of here. EVERYONE IS SICK OF YOUR STUPID SONGS!!!!
oh yeah this girl is a poser..She grew up a Jesus freak and her parents are ministers!!
She is correct!
hahaha you go, Katy! like Miley Cyrus would ever be a role model…lol
Katy IS a latter day Cyndi Lauper and nothing more. She should not even be speaking the names of important, ground-breaking artists like Freddie Mercury. Who cares if silly Miley Cyrus is a role model? What can be stated emphatically is that Katy Petty is not (unless one aspires to be taken about as seriously as that really drunk girl at any given frat party).
TEAM MILEY!!!!!!
what the hell has katy perry done to make all of you love her. if it wasnt for i kissed a girl she would be nothing. one hit wonder i assure you. i cant stand the bitch. i hate miley more, and she is definitely NOT a role model. but i think katy was being sarcastic with that remark. haha
Why do we care about her?
okay she's retarded
katy perry rox, but i do have one problem with this quote. Miley cyrus isnt a role model. if u r looking for a role model look at selena gomez, or demi moore. .. katy perry still rox
I'm sorry but Katy Perry is SOO annoying.. she needs to just realize that she is going to live in Onehitwonderville for the rest of her life… SORRY BITCH..
this is embarrassing. i bet freddie mercury is turning over in his grave right now. it's called pop music, not rock n' roll. that is the most cliched explanation of what rock n' roll is. she should be comparing herself to britney spears, christina aguilera and particularly, *gasp* miley cyrus. especially because miley covered her song breakout in her POP album.
Katey perry's album is FUCKIN HORRIBLE! every critic on the planet has destroyed her album. And katey perry's POP not "rock n roll" Pat benatar is fuckin overrated! her music videos got played constantly at a time when there weren't many videos played, making her famous. And comparing her shit to freddie mercury FUCK OFF!
KATY PERRY IS SO KOOL
AND I THINK SHE WAS JOKING ABOUT MILEY CYRUS
Re: heydudes18 – Agreed!
ummm yeaaaaaaaah you're REALLY cool katy
…did she just call miley a roll model?
uh.
katy is probably a better one.
ahahaha, she tried to put herself in the same class as
Pat Benatar and Freddie Mercury.
Not so much Katy Perry, not so much.
STFU already.
Re: heydudes18 –
Couldn't have said it better myself.
Viva La Freddie Mercury.
Did she really just liken herself to Cyndi Lauper? Katy's a pop singer - not a rock musician. Her demographic contains a lot of young people, and unless she changes her music they're sticking around.
Re: MikeHunt –
Can we start Team Anti Katy Perry?
=]
Yeaaaah FREDDIE MERCURY had the best VOICE ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Miley? Role model? In the same sentence?? Hm…
I can't believe she just put Freddie Mercury in the same sentence with talentless hacks.
TRASH.
Katy Perry thinks she's "edgy" just because she has a song about kissing a girl. Doesn't anyone remember "I Kissed A Girl" by Jill Sobule from back in the 90's? Same title but different song and that one actually was a little edgy for it's time. And I definitely agree she is not "rock and roll".
Ha ha, I like her
haha she rocks
Baha. I love Katy Perry.
Oh dear, someone's trying far too hard. And as for rock n roll - your song was written by Cathy Dennis, ffs!
it seems as though no one here understood the purposeful irony katy was creating. :p
Ha, that sounds a bit like trying TOO hard. Real cool people are just themselves without compromise, not someone trying desperately to attach themselves to real cool people by throwing out names and copying personalities. But hey at least she's being honest about being derivative.
She is a dirty untalented skank who will do anything for success and publicity, even betraying any morals she was raised with. Her career won't last long and then she will be left with nothing but regret and a sinful soul.
i love you katy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
if she wants to be in the business of rock and roll, how about you sing rock and roll songs, not i kissed a girl and you're so gay. those are pop. not rock and roll.
Don't chew on that damn chain, sucka my rope, bitch!
Re: Jane Doe – Tsk tsk. Listening to Miley Cyrus wont turn back the clock. Stick to your role model, Hillary. Old, bitter, bitchy … you know what they say … birds of a feather …
LOVE HER!!!
fucking love her.
yeah because Miley is soooo classy…. lol
I won't let my kids watch that crazy little twat
Katie rocks tho
katie perry is full of shit. she used to be a christian artist, and she's never even kissed a girl. not to mention, she can't sing and has no talent, except at the art of bullshit. whatever. rock and roll, are you serious? last time i checked rock and roll wasn't about stupid, gimmick, high school songs about made-up experiences.
That was humorous at best…Katy Perry the "rock and roll" star….I hope she feels that way in 5 years. Tisk Tisk….someone needs to have realistic expectations about her shelf life.
Seriously, Katy? Your "talent" is similar to Freddie fucking Mercury's?
All I can say is: LOLLLLL.
what an annoying skank.
truer words never spoken
OMFG!!!i frickin luv her!!!she is not afraid to be honest and she dislikes miley soooo im all good!!
Sweetie, you're a POP singer and former BACKUP singer for Miley Cyrus. You sound boost jealous and insecure, putting others down to boost your status is ridiculous. Your role models made it big on their TALENT not by putting down people.
…………I luv her song………………..
…….now put her in a horror flick……………..
…..Rob Zombie…we r waiting…give uz more……NOW……PLEAZE..
This over rated POP STAR is a role model whether she likes it or not. Wait, Cyndi Lauper was rock and roll? What cd did I miss? And Miley, a role model? This little clown girl is trying so hard to be different that she does nothing but winds up being like almost every body else; self absorbed, misinformed, and blessed with a effed up attitude that doesn't even warrant a hello to someone who speaks. Hopefully she will grow enough to actually do a rock and roll album… if she lasts that long.
She's such a fake
great quote!!! hope she doesn't end up like avril lavigne
ha ha ha ! katy perry you rock! she is so sarcastic! kids dont really like a role model, it's the parents who want to believe that their own daughters won't be as bichy as they were! some things just dont change ! though miley job is not easy cos everyone knows that to keep her audience in touch without being boring is no easy task!
What a sell-out.
She's the perfect example of what people will do to achieve fame and stardom in Hollywood.
From a blonde, Jesus-loving little known singer, to this.
And she has the nerve to compare her music and image to Jett, Benatar, Mercury, and Lauper.
She makes me sick.
thats right…GO MILEY!!!!
LMAO ! That miley slutrys comment was probably a joke. She meant to say was "If people want a role model, f*** miley cyrus"
She's got backbone, that Katy Perry. Still love her singles! Even if she's gonna be a nobody 10 years from now.
You GO Katy. Good for you. Think you sorta gave Miley Cyrus too much credit though. =]
that has got to be the greatest thing anyone has ever said. go katy, cause really when you're in that business, thats exactly how you should look at things.
She could be my sister. She makes faces like her.
