Katy Perry challenges conformity in Chained To The Rhythm video





Say what you want about Katy Perry. But almost a decade into her career , nobody else does a great pop visual like the Firework singer. This continues with the premiere of Chained To The Rhythm.

Perry finds herself immersed in the day glo sheen of the Oblivi amusement park , surrounded by Stepford Wives-esque characters ambling from one high thrill ride to the next. The video clearly takes inspiration from the songs Sia and max Martin penned lyrics.

Ignorance is bliss for Perry and her fellow park goers living in their bubble , unaware of their conformity. Its only when Perry peicks her finger on a rose thorn and her collaborator Skip Marley makes an appearance in 3D , that Katy begins to snap out of her bubble.

Its another video triumph to add to Perry's long list of visual classics like Waking Up In Vegas , .E.T , Last Friday Night and Firework.

Perry releases her long awaited follow up to 2013's PRISM later this year. She performs tomorrow night at the BRIT Awards.
