Songwriter calls Katy Perry a slut

[dancelukedance]

44 year old singer/songwriter Jill Sobule has branded pop star Katy Perry a "f..king little slut". Apparently Sobule released a song with the same title as Perry's more recent hit, "I Kissed a Girl" in 1995 and is a little bit jealous that her song didn't do so well - landing at number 67 on the U.S BillboardCharts.

In an interview with Therumpus.net (http://therumpus.net/2009/07/the-rumpus-interview-with-jill-sobule/), Sobulelet it all out in a fowl mouthed attack on the 24 year old Perry...

"As a musician I have always refrained from criticising another artist. I was, 'Well, good for her.' In truth, she wrote it with a team of professional writers and was signed by the very same guy that signed me in 1995."

"I have not mentioned that in interviews as I don’t want to sound bitter or petty, because that’s not me. Okay, maybe, if I really think about it, there were a few jealous and pissed off moments.

"So here goes, for the first time in an interview…F..k you Katy Perry, you f..king stupid, maybe 'not good for the gays', title-thieving, haven’t-heard-much-else-so-not-quite-sure-if-you’re-talented, f..king little slut."

Woah, tell us what you really think Jill! That's the future mother of my children you're talking about!

[kazuma_ootaro28]

First time I heard of Katy Perry, I thought she covered a Jill Sobule song.

[timb89]

wooo AUSTRALIA!

[PenThrive]

Don't get hostile because your record did not make the cut. Do something else other than sulking.

[bladerdude360]

Oh snap, shit's about to go down! *prays for cat fight*

[erinfxs]

Sounds bitter, but I have no pity ha. I hate Katy Perry.

[And Hours Pass]

she really needs to get naked already.
Game set match.

[cirerelleum]

Well she is a bit of a slut. And is really lacking when it comes to singing her songs live.

[songydarko]

That's kind of hilarious...

[theguy77]

HEY KATY PERRY IS A SLUT

post a thread about me too! im a songwriter!

/illustrating how inane and pointless this thread is

[Kammy]

And I've just lost all respect for Jill Sobule. Don't get me wrong, I find Katy Perry's song problematic, if not homophobic, but calling Perry a "fucking little slut" is disgusting. Yes, Perry's song is offensive, but personally, I find calling someone a slut worse. Insulting a woman by using her sexuality is a big problem in our society, and it's just sad when a woman uses such misogynistic language against another woman.

[UnderMyDreams]

Someone's jealous.

[seraph1214]

This really didn't need a thread.

[ReignofFiction]

Someone is a little bitter and...a lot of ugly.

[Genuma]

no one bump this unless hey have naked pictures.

[Mibabalou]

up DA PUNKS

[DejaNew]

Would.

[saveferris]

I'm gonna go with the typical "I would so do Katy Perry" comment as well as saying I don't think she's a slut she's just an attention whore.

[Machu505]

Pot calling the kettle black? Possibly?

[ApricotChick]

ahah. A forty four year old saying that.

[Benny K]

im still outraged about this happening with some other unknown artist and shakira. But it makes me happy when people have the balls to be publically pissed off at someone even if she was terrible and insulting miss perry. really? a slut? everyone's a slut given the right situation.

[cuzimlefthanded]

she is a slut. I would rail this slut.

i literally "lol'ed" when i read this. maybe it's the phrasing you used haha

[GunTheVillain]

Yeah, you go girl.
KATY PERRY R SLUT FER STELING MAI SONG YO.

[Dymytry Vance]

Like... really... congrats... your song didn't make the cut, and someone who fit the mainstream mold made a song and got a shit load of money for it. Be happy you make music you like instead of bitching at Katy Perry.

[nonamesleft]

..What?

[deFobbed14yrs]

haha.
