KATY PERRY TALKS FELLOW FEMALE ARTISTS

Looking lovely on the cover of Nylon magazine, Katy Perry dished about her new music and her thoughts about other artists in the latest issue.

The “Waking Up in Vegas” singer spoke of the multiple different female singers out and what makes her different, telling, “You’ve got GaGa, who’s like, from outer space; you’ve got Ke$ha, who’s the beer-drinking, house-party girl; and then you’ve got Rihanna, who’s transforming the urban world into her own outer space.”

But Perry feels there’s something more needed in the mix. “I feel like you’re missing an Alanis Morissette, in 2010. I love how she was a voice for a lot of people who couldn’t explain their feelings. But it’s not like I’m not gonna compete. I love a good dose of healthy competition. It’s not going to be the same that they’re doing…”

Perry also opened up about what she and Taylor Swift have in common, saying, “Sometimes I really feel like I’m more of a Taylor Swift. She tells stories, and I think that’s why she resonates with a lot of people. She hits the hidden chord in them [where they say], ‘Oh my God, I’ve been through that too,’ or ‘You said it in a way I could never explain.’”
