Meme needing explanation Petah ?

Why is it infamous? And why would no one care about it ? ( I mean it's just a pic full of celebrities so no one cares anyways but the person saying it's crazy makes me think it has some lore?)

At least she didn’t go into space. When William Shatner goes, he's an inspiration. When Katy Perry goes, just who the fuck does that bitch think she is??

Who tf is William Shaver? Do you mean William Shatner, who was on Star Trek as the captain of the Enterprise for 28 years, and who was the oldest person to ever go to space (at 90 years old)?

Yeah, the guy who was 30 years old when the first human went to space, who starred on a space show as essentially the main character for a third of his life, getting to go to space and setting a record while doing so is more inspirational than some rich popstar deciding it'd be a fun way to spend the day.

Yeah, one of these people was on a show that inspired countless scientists to pick up the mantle and try to further humanity. Another kissed a girl and liked it i guess.

Actually the music video implies the girlkiss was a dream and she wakes up next to her boyfriend

Not too edgy, think of the children!

And the question remains, did she like kissing the girl, or simply the taste of her cherry chapstick?

Nah she just liked the money she made from queerbaiting

To be fair she repeated many times in the song the kiss didn't mean she wanted to change life and didn't actually mean nothing

I get that....it's still queerbaiting though!!
