It sounds silly, but it does seem to make sense within the context of this interview with Katy Perry, conducted by Nylon while they shot her for their cover. I like Katy for the same reason I like Lady Gaga – she writes her own music, she comes up with her whole style, she sings live, she’s smart and outspoken and her look is gorgeous. A ‘conceptual pop artist’, if you will. Plus I do love an all-rounder!
There’s nothing quite like your average tampon ad to make you holler ‘do you have any idea what I’m going through?!’ when it comes to periods, period cramps and all the other regular, persistent inconveniences associated with that-time-of-the-month.
I, for one, get the distinct impression that men are responsible for managing most feminine hygeine accounts, judging by the repetitive use of tight white clothing and girls running on a beach, breasts bouncing all slow-mo. It’s like the thinking goes ‘Let’s show hot girls and their hot bodies, to make girls feel better about their periods BUT MOSTLY to make guys feel less awkward and more turned on while watching those ads with their girlfriends’. Am I right ladies? Please enjoy:
