iar dawrnt knowr myr narme, i think it is mainly Yukata style, but incorporates lots of body styling from the Cheongsam. I’m not sure you can really appropriate the Cheongsam since it in itself is a Han appropriation of Manchu dress and style, fit for the “Modern China” of the 1920s. The hair is shaped more like a Zhou Xuan hairstyle too. I don’t think it’s been sexualised however- the style is very modest and very clearly shows no fantasy aspects to the design.

I just think it's a bad performance, and because of her bad performance made people think it's some what iggnorant. Its just alright really but then again I will always think Katy Perry has the tackiest stage ideas that are just baffling. Like "Oh good job Katy for performing a japanese style song... at the American Music Awards... What an appropriate time for such a performance." Katy Perry is just a bad performer, good singer,but Ill never got to her concerts. Have you seen the swish swish song? That's just bad in every way

The Mario Numbers does anyone ever call you stupid? believe me, it helps, a lot. 1. This is Japan Kimono, not China dress. Although I myself hate China a lot but there's nothing wrong with dress or cultures. Everyone knows that Katy is crazy for anything Japan and it's no surprise she always wants to bring the traditional dress to her performance to show her respect and love for the country. Japan is her favourite country in Asia, best song goes with the best dress of the best country, that's how she does, that's how it goes. She also performs this song with Western dress countless of time, so don't think this is mocking Asian woman. 2. Unconditonal love is the greatest love. Everything has 2 faces, the song also encourages man to love their woman unconditionally, and that is what our society is lack off, that is what we should try to achieve.

+ChaoticButterfly Actually, yes I think the taiko drums were a perfect addition to the song and embraced the culture well, at least for me. I've grown up with eisa (taiko) and seeing the drums really made me happy. It may not have a significant meaning for you, but it does for me because it reminds me of home and all the friends and family I have loved unconditionally since childhood also for me what was really beautiful were the cherry blossoms. In Japan, sakura are so delicate and beautiful. to me it was a perfect way to describe this song. While some people are leaving rude comments and bashing on her for this performance (on KZfaq and elsewhere) it made me like her even more. So thank you Katy Perry for a beautiful song and performance! :)

The problem with this performance is that it perpetuates the stereotype of the docile, subservient East Asian girl found in works such as Madama Butterfly and Sayonara. Katy Perry's character will love unconditionally, because that's what East Asian girls do... It's orientalism. It's exoticism. And ultimately it's dehumanizing a group of people by stereotyping and fetishizing them.
@martinluther5283
@martinluther5283 7 жыл бұрын
1. Fetishizing a race of people is wrong because it strips away the individuality of the people within the fetishized race. You (not you personally) are seeing individuals within the fetishized race, not as individual people with unique traits and personalities, but rather, facsimiles of a mythical sexual creature from your imagination. And refusing to treat individuals as distinct and unique people is a bit repulsive. Other instances of fetishizing can be less harmful. For instance, having a foot fetish doesn't intrinsically ascribe traits and personalities on a sexual partner. However, I still find it problematic, because it can mean an obsession with feet to the exclusion of personality. In this instance, the sexual partner is seen, rather than as an individual human being, as merely a sexual object. 2. I'm sorry if it wasn't clear. I'm not saying that I hold the belief that East Asian girls are docile and subservient and love unconditionally. I'm saying that the Western works I mentioned in my comment portray this stereotype, and that Katy Perry's live rendition of the song perpetuates this stereotype by drawing the parallel between loving unconditionally (as per the content of the song) and being a East Asian girl (as per the performance setting). You may want to say that Katy Perry drew this parallel through "a respect and understanding of Confucian culture... that is admirable," but the similarities in key scenes between Madama Butterfly and this Katy Perry performance convince me that her performance leans more on older Western works that portray East Asian culture rather than the doctrines and beliefs of the East Asian cultures themselves. 3. I am trying to control how people think and live. Why else would I read? Why else would I write? I'm sorry that you found my opinions to be nothing but platitude.

私は日本人で、日本在住35歳の 女ですが、お恥ずかしながら つい最近になって、この映像を 拝見致しました。 彼女が来ている服がチャイナドレスと言われてみれば、そう見えるかもしれません。 ですが、私はそんな事よりも この映像を見て日本人として 「なんて美しいんだろう」 と感動しました。 そして何より、、 日本で起きた東日本大震災2年後という、彼女のこのパフォーマンスに、私は感謝しかありまん。。。 また、重ねて世界中の皆様 日本への多大なる御支援 有難う御座いました。

I loved it! Lots of Japanese people liked it. All she did was use Japanese culture because she thought it was beautiful everyone was overreacting to this. She can dress up and include whatever culture in her performance as long as she respects it and I don’t see anything disrespectful in this performance she loved the culture so she included it in her show.

Salad Yun dude, calm down. Im asian American, but I'm not offended. I love the way she showcased Japanese culture here, it was beautiful and magical. You can tell a lot of research and thought went into this stage. I love to see Asian culture represented positively in American media. Cause for so many years we were always the evil kung fu warriors in the white martial artist's way or a nerdy kid or just a one line stereotype. This was a nice change to finally see our culture on the big screen being represented respectfully and beautifully.

I love this song. I love this performance. I lived in Japan for three years and I *really* don't understand why anyone is upset with the Japanese theme here. In fact I was really impressed by how well she represented the culture. Obviously it's not a traditional Japanese performance, but it certainly does a better job than most Americans would do trying to display Japanese elements.

When I think back on live performances that I've seen, Katy Perry's are most frequently in mind. Not only is she an amazing singer, but she is a brilliant entertainer. If her voice isn't enough to influence some emotion out of you, then her theatrics are. She is uniquely herself in every way.

Late comment. I know. But it was getting on my nerves for the past fews weeks of seeing this video 2 weeks ago. I don't like how all the people are offended. A youtuber named Yuta made a video saying what do Japanese think of Katy Perry komino performance? They thought it was amazing and took no offence. I refuse to believe they were lying because all the Japanese people I have met are pretty nice. As in America, they have no problem calling her a weeaboo. I don't understand because all I see in this video is creativity and a good performance. Some of the stuff in here isn't even Japanese. I don't even know what idiot came up with weeb in the first place but if my friend wants to live in Germany and study the culture, someone would say AMAZING! But if I want to study Japanese culture, I get called a disgrace. Is it just because of the anime? Anyway, thank you to that 00.1% who read my ramble comment but either way I hope you have a nice day. I am sorry for taking up your time and going off topic.
