Going adds April 08, 2008 www.katyperry.com/The L.A-based singer-songwriter’s sassy confidence and feisty confessional songs have already had fans and savvy media singing her praises, even before her new EP, Ur So Gay, is released by Capitol Records . Blender Magazine called her “The Next Big Thing” while Teen People dubbed her “One to Watch.” And no less a harbinger of ‘what’s hot’ than celeb blogger Perez Hilton wrote of Perry on his website: “If Avril Lavigne were actually talented, pretty, and had an appealing personality, she’d be Katy Perry. She’s got the whole package!”

I wonder if she'll have a shot at pop radio success. "Ur So Gay" has to be one of the most clever songs in recent years.

this is terrible, avril runs circles around this girl. That will be the Avril, thats supporting the Jonas Bros tour - lol I think Katy probably pips Avril, she has a surprisingly powerful voice and I like the way she can push it right to the edge without crossing the boundary into shouting which is what Kelly and Avril are prone to.

Huh? The Jonas Brothers opened for her tour, not the other way around. Anyways, vocally, I think she has nothing on Kelly, or even Avril, but I do like this song. Probably will go at least top ten.

Not according to them.... From the Jonas Brothers official website: Quote: Today we will be joined by Avril Lavigne. She is doing 8 dates with us on our summer tour. Will be good to see her again. Keep checking in JB Kevin, Joe and Nick

This is catchy and could be big but could also fall on deaf ears. She is far whittier than Avril and definitely has the beating of her on vocals. She also has a refreshing sense of normalness. She is just saying things that a lot of people think and is less concerned with her image, which Avril is somewhat obsessed with.

Her songs IMO have flawless melodies. I don't know how to explain it, but it's like I listen to it and it just flows really naturally and is catchy without sounding like it's been done before. It's something I've noticed about Kelly and Pink's music as well, so I assume the credit is due to Max Martin.

This is actually probably my least favorite of the single-worthy tracks on the album. But I still love it. I'd rank them.
COULD BE SINGLES Waking Up in Vegas Thinking of You One of the Boys If You Can Afford Me Self-Inflicted I Kissed a Girl Mannequin Hot N Cold Fingertips
SHOULDN'T BE SINGLES I'm Still Breathing Lost Ur So Gay

Sounds like a hit, but I think it would've done better as single #1.
'Waking up in Vegas' and 'If you can afford me' could be great singles. 'Thinking of you', too.
