Katy Perry is the symbol of strength. The beautiful singer spoke with MTV about her newly released music video “Wide Awake” and says that she wants to be “honest” with her fans when it comes to her music.

“I’m super truthful and honest when it comes to writing music videos,” she says. “And I just want to continue to remain honest.”

Katy says she hopes that her fans feel encouraged after listening to this song and watching this video. 

“I hope they feel encouraged that it doesn’t matter what thing is thrown at you or what kind of obstacle you face,” she says. “You can get through it and land on your feet triumphantly and strong. That’s what I hope people get from this music video … from the song. It’s just you’ve gotta grow up a little bit, I guess. Sometimes you have to deal with some things in order to move on in life. That’s what I’m doing.”

Katy is inspiring and so is this video.

Katy Perry should really thank Russell Brand because she’s giving the best performances of her career! The singer sang her single “Wide Awake” and she wore what looked to be a wedding dress, and she had a groom there too!

Katy was singing lyrics like: “I was in the dark/I was falling hard/With an open heart/I’m wide awake/How did I read the stars so wrong.”

Before she sang the song, she accepted the Spotlight Award for amassing five #1 hits from her Teenage Dream album. The only person to ever receive this award before her was Michael Jackson. During her speech she said: “Tonight, later, when I get on the stage, I’m going to be singing my personal, intimate song.”

More lyrics from her song are: “I wish I knew then/What I know now/Wouldn’t dive in/Wouldn’t bow down/Gravity hurts/You made it so sweet/Till I woke up on/On the concrete.”

Katy is truly skyrocketing to pure greatness and it’s because she rid herself of Russell’s toxic energy. Let’s just hope that she agrees to attend the MTV Movie Awards on June 4 and not skip just because Russell is hosting.
