She birthed Kesha and Katy. She deserves her flowers 🌸

[@Jose-hi5rx]

And more

[@HOT10Singles]

It's hard to believe that one person wrote or co-wrote that many great pop songs (most of them were #1) and still she can not wrote a #1 single for herself. She's very talented and I hope she will be successful as a solo artists/singer.

Hold It Against Me Teenage Dream Dynamite Last Friday Night Part of Me Come On California Gurls Wide Awake

[@zoozyg3108]

why people say she sounds terrible she sounds awsome

[@teenagedream8761]

agree (:

[@BrokenTourniquet]

Zoozy G It's common for people to think songwriters sound terrible singing their own songs just because they're used to hearing the song's main performer singing it.

[@brittanychadwick3215]

+Zoozy G finally someone agrees !!

[@EthanJohn1986]

Cuz their robots who worship popstars Bonnie obviously is talented she wrote all these songs

[@bishoujo97]

Why is she not popular?!?! She's amazing!

[@MasClaraImposible]

She made this songs

[@barnold23]

Because she got twacked out on meth and vandalized the record company CEO’s car - look it up. Sad story.

[@whatsthebigfndeal]

She called out the industry execs as a bunch of Satan worshipping pedophiles. Lol, they kinda turned in her after that.

[@Fearless.cat1209]

Bc she's a songwriter

[@haleys7381]

She hit every note in each song and her transition from each song was amazing, she can really sing and hold notes.

[@thesohee]

So she wrote almost all of Katy Perry's hits? Amazing!

[@karlox4038]

Co-wrote

[@isaacvaldes8619]

Blair Kim First: She didn't WRITE Katy's hits by herself she co-wrote the songs WITH Katy. Second: The only hits she co-wrote WITH Katy were California Gurls, Last Friday Night, Part of Me, Roar, Teenage Dream and Wide Awake... Firework, I Kissed a Girl, Hot N Cold, Waking Up In Vegas, E.T., and Dark Horse were not written by her.

[@anemoneyas]

Isaac Valdés Katy Perry works with a lot of different writers, most notably Max Martin and Dr. Luke. Bonnie McKee was involved of my favorite kp songs though.

[@teenagedream8761]

with katy. They wrote it together

[@TheDavidkaltsas]

Carlinhos Trancoso WROTE XD

[@onika22maraj]

SHE. FUCKING. WROTE. THAT. !!!!! SHOOK

[@sweetheartcross5644]

yes, she was 16 year's old when she started singing but then she stop n she came back. I love her songs

[@fiionaaaa]

HER VOICE IS AAAAAMAZING!!!

[@dahyee.1956]

Her voice is soo pretty..

[@Georgiamoss96]

I love how she has combined all the songs together and I think she has a really good voice , go bonnie!

[@hakeemsd70m]

Wow...this is one of the most beautiful videos I have ever watched in my entire life. Her voice is so strong, yet so sweet. She is a true music artist, vocally, instrumentally, and in songwriting.

[@KitKatPerryfan]

It's a pity she's not famous famous. She's very very very talented!!!

[@zvezdih.355]

She is the real POP QUEEN!!....♥

[@jmwjmww15]

Bonnie deserves so much more credit than what she gets. She wrote songs for Britney and Ke$ha, and wrote all of Katy's hit songs, and gets no credit. Plus her voice and musical skills are better than Britney's, Ke$ha's and Katy's combined.

[@PedroBuffay]

With Katy she co-write

[@OKzs]

PedroBuffay no wrote

[@PedroBuffay]

OKzs No,she co-writes, Bonnie said it

[@OKzs]

PedroBuffay Co-write can mean anything. Neyo said Beyonce co-wrote Irreplaceable yet you can see he had the song finished and she recorded it making minor changes, same with Poison & many others. Watch this interview (watch?v=-nz54LmMu0A) Katy's "co writing" appears to be her giving Bonnie the idea and Bonnie writing the song, that is hardly co-writing, It also seems like Teenage Dream was written already, so Bonnie is just being polite & generous to Katy. Roar went to #1 (which Bonnie wrote) notice all of Katy's singles without Bonnie (Walking on Air, Unconditionally, Dark Horse) are not doing that well? Hmm let's think about that....

[@jmwjmww15]

PedroBuffay Co-wrote is basically they wrote the song together. But if you look at the credits in the albums, you would see there is about 5-6 writers per song. So basically, it's Katy, Bonnie and 3-4 other people writing a song. It's not like Katy is independent and does all, or even half, of the writing.

[@lauzonahuntsic108]

A lot of talent in the writings, she really found in Katy a undeniable winning formula. Keep your good work and succes will stick around!

[@_anaflavia_]

She wrote basically all the famous songs of Katy Perry! Amazing!

[@nikkocurayag3065]

CO-WROTE

[@darian4795]

4 minutes of my fav songs and pure talent!

[@dahliamfoihaya6665]

fantastic mash up and cover

[@bobkh4404]

katy owes most of her career to bonnie

[@wandson5410]

Katy is the mainly songwritter of her songs. Bonnie was one of the co-writtens

[@ohalistair]

Not really. Bonnie didn't write anything from her first album (as Katy Perry), which is what launched her career.

[@whatsthebigfndeal]

@@PW-yv3sc Bonnie wrote the songs. She needed the money so she sold them to Katy with the understanding that she would only get credit as a co-writer. It's a common practice in the industry. I think Bonnie said that she got like 70k for teenage dream and California girls with no royalties attached at all. She eventually signed with Max Martin as one of his song writing team and actually makes good money, now. She's written a ton of hits for other people. She's what Katy pretends to be.

[@LordFingers1]

She writes lyrics. Max martin writes the music and melody. Perry and McKee add words to his music.

[@billieeyelash]

I hate it how people say Bonnie WROTE all of Katy Perrys big hits, she didn't write it all she co wrote it so these songs aren't actually entirely hers!

[@dayanagonzalez4452]

OMG She Really have a beautiful and good voice!

[@queenmeghan9067]

I love her voice

[@ThienTunes]

Wow. Just wowww.

[@arianalyn1255]

i find it so hard to understand why she hasnt toped the charts herself she is soo talented i cant believe she wrote those songs. She is so brilliant

[@peppermint23]

This is such a brilliant career path; she gets to make the kind of music she wants for herself and anyone else, and she's raking in the royalties.

[@ElaineCreason]

I fell in love with Bonnie way before any of these songs or anyone knew Katy ❤Bonnie

[@visualhatefvck]

Bonnie McKee & Dr. Luke really shaped Perry's Career.

[@redkipling3457]

i love her so much

[@ErickGoDude]

[@panggrams]
