You&#8217;re not rebellious. That&#8217;s exactly what you&#8217;re supposed to do, Kate. I&#8217;ll be impressed when a male pop star who does not identify as gay says he kissed a boy and he liked it, and he was curious and experimenting and hopes his girlfriend doesn&#8217;t mind. That&#8217;d be subversive. Then again, people would just think he was closet gay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kate Perry has a pop song with a very catchy tune.
