Katy Perry feels old when young artists refer to her | Stars

entertainment">“Honestly, old,” Katy answers when asked how it feels to hear young musicians like Olivia Rodrigo refer to her music in their own lyrics. “But I also feel grateful that I’m not dead in a ditch somewhere. Wow, it’s all coming back now,” the singer realizes, looking back on the memories of her early days as a pop star.

entertainment">In her own words, it doesn’t seem that long ago that she broke through with her hit I Kissed a Girl in 2008. “It feels like yesterday, especially when people say ‘I listened to you when I was young’, when they are now adults and have children themselves.”

entertainment">Still, the American is happy that she can be a role model for others. “It means that music still resounds. It means the message still applies to people. That’s nice! It’s nice to have such a stamp.”
