She’s been cultivating a tougher image with songs like Roar.
But now Katy Perry has taken it a step further by transforming into a man-eating evil queen in her latest video Dark Horse.
The 29-year-old kills at least two men with magical powers while also taking time to straddle a stripper pole in the gorgeously sH๏τ clip.
The video opens with the message: ‘Memphis Egypt a crazy long time ago’.
We then see Katy reclining on a boat in the Nile river as male slaves dance around her.
We soon cut to a man wearing an eye patch as he brandishes a giant diamond offering it to Perry in her exotic court in the desert.
After examining the precious gem, the Fireworks singer licks her lips as she burns the man into a pile of dust with the aid of her laser eyed throne.
She takes the fallen jewels from the man’s burned remnants and puts them in her mouth for a grill.
She then can be seen dancing on a stripper pole as she is attended by rapper Juicy J.
But that’s not all, as she is also seen nearly ɴuᴅᴇ in silver body paint as a snake writhes around her body.
Then after a pepper burns her mouth Katy electrocutes a fat man with lightning from her hands.
The song sees her tackle some of her most confident lyrics yet, as she croons: ‘Make me your Aphrodite / Make me your one and only / But don’t make me your enemy, your enemy, your enemy’.
Adding: ‘So you wanna play with magic / Boy, you should know what you’re falling for / Baby do you dare to do this? Cause I’m coming at you like a dark horse’.
Fitting lyrics for a video featuring her commit homicide via magic.
