•  Support -- Lady Lotus (talk) 13:25, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
•  Support --Ricky90 (talk) 15:37, 21 January 2015 (UTC) She's the best, more beautiful, glamorous, charismatic and charming. I love her so much!!!
  • At least 45 contributed plus what you write is very debatable but we are voting photo not the subject --LivioAndronico talk 16:10, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
•  Oppose IMO DoF too small.--XRay ^talk 18:26, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
  • @XRay: 1.16 MB is too small? Lady Lotus (talk) 18:54, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

• BTW: DoF = Depth of Field. --XRay ^talk 19:05, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

•  Support a very good portrait with a good focus point and DoF! --Alchemist-hp (talk) 20:23, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
•  Support eyes on focus, that's what matters. Good photo. -- RTA 20:33, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
•  Support I like better portraits with a dark background, but that's just a question of taste. FP any way. Yann (talk) 23:51, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
•  Reluctrant oppose Per X-Ray. Daniel Case (talk) 02:45, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
•  Support -- wanted to nom this image before but was reluctant..technically one of the best "headshot/portrait" images around ..--Stemoc 11:35, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
•  Oppose I do not like the white background. --Uoaei1 (talk) 12:55, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
•  Oppose per Uoaei1 --Code (talk) 06:22, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
  •  Comment @Uoaei1: @Code: I'm new to the FP but isn't not liking the background part of the "Unhelpful reasons for opposing"? Lady Lotus (talk) 12:14, 23 January 2015 (UTC)

•  Comment The point is that a reason for opposing is given here. For me, the harsh contrast with the white background is distracting. --Uoaei1 (talk) 12:49, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
• @Lady Lotus: Hm. I don't think so. It's a matter of composition. As Uoaei1 said, the contrast between foreground and background is quite harsh when the background is simply white. This is quite distracting. If the background was different, I would certainly support the nomination. I hope you don't take my oppose personal, it's not meant this way. It's certainly a good picture but for me it doesn't meet FP standards. --Code (talk) 13:26, 23 January 2015 (UTC)

• No no, not personal, just trying to better understand the opposition. It's better explained after that, thank you :) Lady Lotus (talk) 14:06, 23 January 2015 (UTC)

•  Support With all that makeup not sure I wanted to kiss her, but I can support this image as a nice visual object. -- ChristianFerrer 13:28, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
•  Question What is going on inside her nose by the ring? Is that a mole or a shadow or something even less appealing. Saffron Blaze (talk) 15:47, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

• Lol pretty sure it's a mole Lady Lotus (talk) 16:04, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

• No, Lady Lotus; Saffron Blaze, this is the piercing shadow, same in the cheek. See File:Katy Perry (15881664812).jpg -- RTA 01:59, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

• I suspect that is indeed the case. Another good reason why people shouldn't pierce their nose. Shadows become boogers. Saffron Blaze (talk) 04:50, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

•  Oppose background --Mile (talk) 18:04, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
•  Oppose It's just a head--Claus (talk) 06:51, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
•  Support I wonder if this weren't Katy Perry would it meet so much resistance. As to the background... it is a headshot. Fairly standard in portraiture. Saffron Blaze (talk) 15:53, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
•  Support Jee 15:47, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
•  Oppose Technically well done red-carpet-shot, almost too sharp to be pleasing in some areas, but it's missing something special to be truly outstanding – maybe a real “Duchenne” smile. Not even the best of that series, imho. --El Grafo (talk) 14:56, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
