I have to admit that I didn’t really become tuned into the phenomenon that is Katy Perry until she appeared on The Simpsons a few weeks ago. Since then, I’ve become a Katy Perry awareness sponge, absorbing the ways that she has permeated our culture. I mean, do you have any idea how many chicks rocked the blue wig on Halloween? I thought it was just some sort of fad thing at the time.

Anyways, here’s the KP fix you’ve been jonesing for.

Katy Perry - Teenage Dream (Temabes Remix) (via SEX DA HOUSE)

Notorious B.I.G.  - Back to Cali Gurls (Katy Perry Remix)

Katy Perry - I Kissed a Girl (NONEWYORK Remix)

Katy Perry - California Gurls (ALGERONICS Remix) (via SalaciousSound)

Katy Perry - Peacock (Insan3Like House Remix) (via Ratcachters)

Katy Perry - Teenage Dream  (Kaskade Remix)

Disco Sirens

According to this, the sirens were “dangerous bird-woman…portrayed as seductresses in Greek mythology.”

They were known for their beautiful voices that would lure sailors to their death. Odysseus was one of the only ones to get away with hearing them, and he had to do so by having himself tied to the mast of a ship and plugging his crew’s ears with beeswax so that they couldn’t hear the sirens while they sailed by them.

Anyways, here’s a collection of modern-day sirens. Disco sirens, if you will. You’ll be tempted, but not to the extent that you’ll need to put beeswax in your ears.
