Katy Perry - Dark Horse (Official Music Video) [+ Review]


Katy Perry's recent music video for her track Dark Horse, certainly has everyone talking. Cue Illuminati theorists screaming everyone. Yikes. The video is pretty typical of what you'd expect if I said 'Katy Perry' and 'Egypt'. It's pretty much a bubblegum version of some elements of Egyptian History, which is great - if you like that sort of thing. (Personally, I'm a little confused - didn't Perry say she wanted to be taken seriously, and that she was moving away from her old type of thing?) To me, this looks pretty much like California Girls Gone Wild in Egypt. There's bizarre gaudy colours, weird people in kitten-hats and a lot of people turning into dust and items that Perry wants. There's lightning, talking statues and hi-tops. Okay then. It's certainly engaging. 



If all that has enticed you enough to watch, click the link above for a full on colour trip. 
Dark Horse is Katy Patra's first promotional single from her album Prism. Perry plays an Egyptian Queen in the video (under the name Katy Patra, Queen of Memphis) and turns all her suitors into bizarre animals and objects.
