Katy Perry‘s new album Prism is out and climbing the charts — and to celebrate the record’s release, the roarin’ chanteuse took to Twitter to engage with her fanatical fanbase and answer a few burning questions for them. Ranging from the personal and spiritual to the musical, she revealed the fate of the once-much anticipated track “Bad Photographs,” her songwriting process and the origins of her inspiration.
As for the Prism tour, her response to one fan was particularly mysterious — but it’s all looking pretty promising for the songbird. Check her most intriguing responses below.
1. All that letting the light in aside, the hotly tipped song “Bad Photographs” just wasn’t as good as the other songs. So much for that.@mserthal it’s my 3rd album (why are ppl saying this) & I wrote about 26 songs or so for the record & not all of them fit! Best ones made it

2. She wrote “This Moment” in a single day. (That might explain why it’s not very good.)
@777candygirl777 I wrote This Moment in 1 day it took me 5 months to finish Choose Your Battles. Some come out like waterfalls others drip!

3. “Dark Horse” was inspired by The Craft, which is actually super awesome.
@zennnnaaa it’s like someone falling in love with a witch! Influenced by the movie The Craft!

4. It’s lyrically dense and vulnerable — so how about that?
@xCallMeChrissyx I feel like it represents so many different sides of me but is the most lyrically dense/vulnerable record I’ve made so far.
