When Katy Perry joined “American Idol,” she promised she wouldn’t hold back her opinions. As the seasons progressed, the “Wide Awake” singer kept true to her promise, but it was Perry’s opinions that led her to consider completely leaving “American Idol” altogether. According to the Daily Mail, Perry has been wanting to leave the show for a while, and Season 21 almost pushed her to the edge.
In Season 21, 25-year-old contestant Sara Beth Liebe revealed she had three children during her audition. Perry, shocked by how she was a young mother to three kids, commented that Liebe had been “laying on the table too much.” When this episode aired, people quickly called out Perry for mom-shaming, and some even went as far as to request she be let go from the show. Criticism over Perry’s remarks only worsened when Liebe shared, “…mom-shaming is super lame,” in a now-deleted TikTok video, per Forbes.
The hate thrown at Perry almost became too much and she wasn’t happy with how the show’s producers made her look. A source revealed to the Daily Mail, “Katy feels like [the producers] threw her under the bus. She feels like her comments could have been removed.” The season progressed, but Perry still faced wave of hate. The source shared, “She has accomplished so much in her career and is now being looked at as a nasty reality show judge.”
