I’m not mad about this, but I hate the way these true crime shows are made. Studios basically option the rights to an article or a podcast instead of buying anyone’s life rights. So the survivors/family members get none of the money or agency or legal protection, but still have to face the trauma and public scrutiny.

Definitely not trying to defend Katy Perry (cannot stand that woman) but should she be the one getting the backlash since it was Juicy J that sung (and probably wrote) the Dahmer line?

[automaticpeople]

I don’t get why only she is getting called out. They both should be, since I’m assuming Katy was aware of the line and was ok with it since she released the song?

[allstar12]

I'm assuming since it's her song she could say yes or no to the added lyrics? Not sure how that works but if she approved it then they both should be called out for sure.

I mean, she was clearly fine having it in her song lol
