Why Katy’s a hypocrite.com

KATY PERRY is the world’s biggest social media star — and hypocrite.

With 176 million followers, her reach is all-powerful.

However, now the former wife of Russell Brand is telling her adoring fangirl base not to emulate her online activities, saying social media is causing the ‘decline of civilisation’.

The singer points out that the culture means young people care more about ‘likes’ on Facebook than real life and that everyone should get offline and live their lives instead.

Too true, Katy. Yet, you say this after making £200 million using social media as a marketing tool, encouraging gullible girlies to empty their piggy banks to buy your overpriced perfume range, make- up, T-shirts and CDs.

You have bled them dry. And only now do you think social media is not a good idea? You should be ashamed of yourself. But — unlike you — I’m not banking on it.
