Katy Perry caused quite a stir with her role as an elderly Vegas dancer named Goldie in her latest video teaser for the song “Birthday.” However, it seems that there are even more unexpected twists to come, including the iconic moment of jumping out of a birthday cake. In the video, Goldie, complete with her dangling breasts, emerges from a cake at a care home celebrating a 90th birthday. Stay tuned to see the surprises unfold in the video…
In Katy Perry’s latest music video for her song “Birthday,” she surprises a 90-year-old man in Las Vegas as an ageing dancer. It’s unclear why Katy chose to portray a ‘trampy’ elderly woman, but it’s not surprising coming from an artist who often grapples with feminist themes in her work.
Throughout the video, Katy transforms into various characters who are all terrible party entertainers. However, the portrayal of the older dancer seems especially unkind and perpetuates negative stereotypes about older women.
Bland: Katy is aiming to provoke, but what exactly is the message she is trying to convey?
Perplexed feminist: Katy’s representation of the aging dancer is disturbing rather than comical
Disheartening: While her makeover is certainly noteworthy, it’s just not hitting the mark in terms of good taste. From sporting the persona of an elderly flapper named ‘Goldie Dancer’ behind a mask, to donning wrinkled skin and drooping breasts in a lifelike body suit, Katy Perry’s transformation may leave you scratching your head. She also takes on the personas of Yosef Shulem, Kriss The Clown, Ace The Animal Trainer, and Princess Mandee, resulting in some side-splitting outcomes.
No, it’s not necessary: Katy leans in for a kiss while Goldie watches.
Not her best moment: Katy, that’s quite a transformation… but what kind of message is she trying to convey?

Princess party: Katy embraced her feminine side and dove headfirst into the world of all things girly, where the possibilities are endless.
In the video, Katy Perry transforms into a variety of alter egos, one of which is a dancer named Goldie, showcasing her versatility and creativity.
Goldie Dancer truly embodied the essence of an aging flapper girl, with Katy’s convincing portrayal leaving a lasting impression.
“Have you caught wind of what the Rabbi did?” Katy’s persona, the Jewish party performer Yosef Shulem, cracks a risqué joke in the sneak peek footage.
Katy’s birthday party had some unexpected entertainment mishaps when she transformed into various generic party performers, leading to some comical outcomes.
I came across an advertisement on Craigslist: Katy effortlessly embodies the role of the clown ‘Kriss The Clown’ with her performance.
“Children, please refrain from consuming alcohol: The hesitant performer confesses that all he really wants is to make some money.”
Wow, is that really Katy? The singer’s transformation with makeup and acting is so convincing that you wouldn’t even recognize the usually flawless star underneath it all.
Princess Mandee is a party entertainer who is always glued to her Twitter account – watching her perform is a laugh riot!
In the sneak peek of Katy’s upcoming music video for “Birthday,” she embodies the role of a realistic, self-absorbed party queen as she declares herself as a Cancer.
