Katy Perry's 'Rude' Reaction After Contestant Wé Ani's Performance Sets Off 'American Idol' Fans

Katy Perry, one of the judges on the popular singing competition show "American Idol," recently caused a stir among fans after a contestant's performance. During a recent episode, contestant Wé McDonald performed a rendition of "Scars to Your Beautiful" by Alessia Cara, which received a standing ovation from the audience and fellow judges Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan.

However, when it was Katy Perry's turn to comment on the performance, she made a remark that many viewers interpreted as rude. Perry said, "I think you're top 10," before making a face and adding, "but it's not saying much because there are only 10 people in the competition."

Fans of the show took to social media to express their outrage at Perry's comment, with many calling her "disrespectful" and "rude." Some even called for her to be fired from the show. Others defended Perry, arguing that her comment was taken out of context and that she was simply trying to be humorous.

Perry has not publicly responded to the backlash, but it is not the first time she has faced criticism for her behavior on the show. In 2018, she was accused of kissing a male contestant without his consent, which also sparked outrage among fans.

Despite the controversy surrounding Perry's comments, Wé McDonald advanced to the next round of the competition, and fans are eagerly awaiting her next performance.
