‘American Idol’ Alum Steven James Throws Some Serious Shade at Katy Perry Over Her New Song ‘OK’

Buy Me A Coffee

American Idol drama just hit a high note—off-key, but a high note nonetheless.

Steven James, a one-time hopeful from season 17 of American Idol, decided he wasn’t done with his 15 minutes of fame. Instead of quietly reminiscing about his glory days on the Idol stage, he’s come for none other than Katy Perry. Yes, the Katy Perry. The one with the rainbow wigs and more hits than a piñata at a kid’s birthday party.

Here’s the tea: Katy recently dropped her deluxe album 1432—a sequel to her album 143, which apparently means “I love you” but now feels more like “I kinda regret this decision.” The album features a brand-new song called “OK,” which, spoiler alert, is getting reviews that are… not OK.

Steven, clearly not over the time Katy gave him the Idol boot back in 2019, took to TikTok to roast the pop queen. In his now-viral video, Steven is sitting in his car, grimacing as if he just bit into a lemon made of pure disappointment. His caption? A savage mic-drop: “This can’t be the same person who eliminated me on American Idol 5 years ago.” Ouch.

But Steven wasn’t alone in his critique. The comments section on TikTok quickly turned into a roast party hotter than Katy’s California Gurls video set. One commenter quipped, “This sounds like the theme song to a PBS Kids show,” and honestly, Big Bird might be bopping harder than the rest of us. Another commenter threw even more shade: “Katy Perry wouldn’t make it past day one on American Idol.” Whew, somebody call Simon Cowell because this is next-level brutal.

Katy, if you’re reading this, just know the internet stays undefeated. But hey, at least you’ve got a new album… and Steven’s undivided, albeit shady, attention.
