Two weeks before Katy Perry's Teenage Dream hit stores, a song from the album called "Circle the Drain" leaked, and jaws everywhere dropped.Jacked from MTV
Because though Perry has never explicitly said as much (she preferred to call the song her " 'You Oughta Know,' Alanis Morrissette moment"), "Drain" is very clearly about one of her exes. And with lines like "You fall asleep during foreplay/ 'Cause the pills you take are more your forte," it's not difficult to figure out which one: Travie McCoy, who, while dating Perry, entered a rehab facility in 2008 to deal with an addiction to pharmaceutical drugs.
While "Drain" shocked many with its frank lyrics, there were some who thought that the song may have gone too far — that couplets like "Wanna be your lover/ Not your f---ing mother" and "You think you're so rock and roll, but you're really just a joke/ Had the world in the palm of your hands/ But you f---ing choked" crossed the line from being clever and came across as just plain mean.
Regardless, in the time since the song first appeared, neither Perry nor McCoy has directly addressed its none-too-subtle content — until now. On Thursday, MTV News caught up with McCoy at a Hennessy Artistry event in New York, and he was more than willing to talk about "Circle the Drain." And though he said he's never actually heard the song, he does have some rather strong feelings about it.
"I heard she put out a song that's about me, or about some old habits or whatever," McCoy said. "[And] I look at it like this: I'm just stoked that she finally has a song with some substance on her record. Good job."
McCoy wouldn't make any further comment on the song, though he did say that he had been wondering when someone was going to ask him about it.

Katy is a lame bitch anyways
What is this womans problem? Aren't you supposedly happy and engaged to Russell Brand? So why dedicate time to something that is in your past?? Ohhh yeah its because you are a bitter bitch. Same way you showed out a few weeks ago at a concert..because a guy from HIGH SCHOOL didn't want to date you. Grow your ass up. No wonder Elmo ran from you.
lol @ his response
Maybe he fell asleep during foreplay because Katy's stupid ass PUT him to sleep. If I was her, Ida kept that one to myself. Makes Katy look bad. As does her being engaged to marry Russell but she's spending time writing a song about Travie. His music shits all over hers. Katy Perry is an arrogant goody two shoes. Travie did the smart thing, short comment and kept it movin.
YAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSS Travie!! And I agree w/ 3:39! Why are you living in the past and checking for this man when he obviously could give two shits about u.
and to add to what was already said, why the hell do you leave trash(cause that's how you clearly feel about him) to marry another trash. i mean russell brand doesn't get more white trash than white trash. i don't get it.
@7:32 Cause katy perry is white trash herself! travis porter looks sexier than that faiy russell brand and i very much doubt they will actually get married. and if they do i really doubt it will last a year because katy perry has mental issues. she wants to play this #cute act but bitch we all know its a stunt! you are nuthing but white trash dressed in a prom dress! and your music is shit too!
I hate Kate Perry...I never really liked her songs and there is something about her that is so flagrantly off. I am glad that Travis got away from her trifling a**. I agree with most of you that she had nothing better else to do in her life than to write a song about him. His response was classy and priceless.
She can have Russell Brand's stinking a**. He looks like his d*ck smells/he smells anyway.--ThatBKChick
