Fans are suggesting that Katy Perry dissed Britney Spears and Taylor Swift in her new cover story for Elle magazine, and that seems like a reasonable thing to believe.

Katy makes what seems like a reference to Britney’s 2007 meltdown when discussing the dark side of fame. “You think you signed up for one thing, but you automatically sign up for a hundred others. And that is why you see people shaving their f--king heads,“ Katy notes.

She also brings up Taylor Swift’s squeaky-clean public image. “As pop figures, we’re all characters. And the media uses that,“ she explains. Who is the sweetheart, who is the villain? You know. Taylor’s the sweetheart. Kanye [West]’s the villain. That’s the narrative.“
