I Kissed a Girl
Updated: 12/11/2025, 5:01:46 PM Wikipedia source
"I Kissed a Girl" is the debut single by American singer Katy Perry. It was released on April 28, 2008, by Capitol Records as the lead single from her second studio album, One of the Boys (2008). Perry co-wrote the song with Max Martin, Cathy Dennis, and its producer Dr. Luke, with additional production from Benny Blanco. The track was recorded at Dr. Luke's Studios and Legacy Recordings, both based in New York City, New York, and Conway Recording Studios, based in Hollywood, Los Angeles. "I Kissed a Girl" is a pop rock, electropop, bubblegum pop, club, and disco record with elements of glam rock and new wave music. Perry stated its lyrics are "about the magical beauty of a woman". The song sparked controversy for its handling of bi-curious themes, but in retrospect has been credited with increasing LGBTQ awareness in pop music. "I Kissed a Girl" became a massive commercial success worldwide in 2008. The song topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart for 7 consecutive weeks, becoming the 1,000th number-one song of the rock era. The single has sold 4.8 million units in the US alone. "I Kissed a Girl" is one of eight songs by Perry to sell over 4 million digital copies in the US, the others being "Hot n Cold", "California Gurls", "Teenage Dream", "Firework", "E.T.", "Dark Horse" and "Roar". Outside of the United States, "I Kissed a Girl" topped charts in 20 countries including Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. It was the best-selling song of 2008 in Finland. The song has sold 8 million copies worldwide and received multi-platinum certifications in Australia, Canada, Denmark, the United Kingdom, and the United States. An accompanying music video for the song was released on May 16, 2008. The video, directed by Kinga Burza, features the singer in a setting inspired by burlesque and Moulin Rouge styles. It features appearances from Perry's friends, including actress Shannon Woodward and fellow American singer Kesha. The song is recognized as the 10th best-selling single in the 21st century. "I Kissed a Girl" was performed and a nominee at the 51st Grammy Awards, the latter for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance. It was also nominated for Favorite Song at the 2009 Kids' Choice Awards, and won Favorite Pop Song at the 35th People's Choice Awards, which it won. The song has been performed on all of her tours (including her residency Play), and was also included in Perry's performance at Pepsi's Super Bowl XLIX halftime show in 2015, at Glendale, Arizona, where she performed the song with fellow American artist Lenny Kravitz. The song has appeared in numerous pieces of media, including Glee, where the song had an episode named after it.
