Yeah, this song is ridiculous and exploitative, I guess. I don't know who Katy Perry is and I really don't care. We have to agree, as Americans and human beings not to get worked up about this shit from now on. Anyway, it's kinda catchy; I'm guessing that six months from now "I Kissed a Girl" will attract its share of poptimist revanchists trying to heave it up the Pazz & Jop. My only complaint is that the video sucks: she doesn't kiss a girl, and she wakes up in bed with a dude - as in, she had a naughty dream about lipstick lesbianism, but deep down she's all about the dick. You know, misogynist douches get their ideas somewhere.
