Katy Perry is on the cover of Elle magazine for its March edition. In an interview with the magazine, she talked about pop-star world, Beyonce Knowles and working with the NFL for Super Bowl. The "Firework" singer called Taylor Swift "media's sweetheart." She said it when she imagined her fellow singers as soap opera characters.
She explained, "You've got to name someone the villain, someone the princess, someone the mom, the dad-type-you know there always have to be characters. As pop figures, we're all characters. And the media uses that. Who is the sweetheart, who is the villain? You know. Taylor's the sweetheart. Kanye [West]'s the villain. That's the narrative."
The singer admitted that she's a fan of Beyonce. Katy said, "Oh my God. I'm such a big Beyonce fan. Beyonce just put out a video! You've got to see this video! I was like, Finallllly. Finally I see you. I don't see some propaganda version of you. I see you. I relate to who you are."
She also talked about the difference between working on her own show and working with the NFL for the Super Bowl halftime show. She told the magazine, "In my show, I am boss daddy. I am boss mommy. They call me Boss. Everything goes through my eyes; I call all the shots, 100 percent of it." The singer added, "With the NFL, I have to be accountable to several levels of red tape. There are many committees I have to go through for my costumes, the budgets of my show, every interview-everything. I have to report to somebody. So I am no longer the boss; I have to relinquish that control."
