Katy Perry gets hyper-stylized and hedonistic
Katy Perry enters a hyper-stylized, pastel-soaked pleasure dome in the wild new clip for "This Is How We Do", the latest from the pop star's 2013 LP, Prism. The clip opens with a old man staring at a portrait of Perry in profile before zooming in on the frame to reveal a hedonistic paradise where ping-pong is played all day, tacos are feasted on and animated ice cream cones twerk it out while chilling with half-eaten slices of pizza.
Mariah Carey gets a visual shout-out at the "Sucking at Mariah karaoke" ("Carey-oke"?) line, while a portrait of Aretha Franklin shows up when the singer gives "respect" to the "kids buying bottle service with their rent money". Even Piet Mondrian gets props when Perry dons outrageous red, blue and yellow De Stijl duds.
