The Popdust Files: katy perry, people's choice awards

Fret not, Katy Perry and/or fans-of. Dr. Luke might be out for the immediate time being (although isn’t this basically the point of Benny Blanco?), but she still has the people’s stamp of approval for her career! And by “people,” we mean the people who make these calls, who are probably not the people who include you, and by “career,” we mean both music and gigs like voicing Smurfette and guest-starring on How I Met Your Mother. Perry got seven nominations total.

In case you’ve lost news track, this is the second round of People’s Choice Award nominations, after the earlier longlist. The music-relevant portion of the list is below. No major surprises, except that someone still thinks “E.T.” is Katy Perry’s best single this year (out of a wodge, even) and that Lady Antebellum and Demi Lovato hit pretty big–they’re still kind of two separate demographics, no?
