Bait and Switch Lesbians: Difference between revisions

Line 78:
* [[Katy Perry]]'s "I Kissed A Girl", which is pretty unambiguous in its title and rode to success on being a mainstream song about girl-on-girl action, backs away from the idea in the video by not showing any girls kissing each other and finally turning out to be Katy's [[All Just a Dream|dream]] as she wakes up beside her boyfriend. Her ''boy''friend, you see? Okay.
** There was a spoof of the song featuring [[Karen Gillan]] as Katy Perry called "Why I Kissed a Girl" where she claims she only kissed a girl to get a hit. At the end of the video she is picked up by her boyfriend and rudely ditches the female dancers she was performing with up to that point.
** Of course, anyone who thought the song was unambiguously about actual lesbian kissing and that the boyfriend was just a hastily-tacked-on thing clearly wasn't listening to the song's actual lyrics (perhaps distracted a bit by the thought of Katy Perry kissing girls):

''I hope my '''boyfriend''' don't mind it''
...
''It felt so wrong, it felt so right''
'''''Don't mean I'm in love tonight'''''}}
