“I don’t sing like that”: A new meme trolls how Katy Perry chews her lyrics—and she noticed

Katy Perry has once again become the internet’s favorite meme: this time for the way she pronounces her lyrics. Her 2008 ballad "Thinking of You" recently went viral on TikTok, not for its emotional lyrics, but for her classic theatrical over-enunciation.

Folks participating in the trend made parody videos of Perry's exaggerated vocal delivery. They do this through over-acting and lip-sync videos to her original song recording. While many did it in jest, some fans couldn’t help but genuinely question her singing choices.
