Katy Perry + Christian Breslauer | Watch It Burn, Feminine Fire, and Why It’s Okay to Be Angry

Katy Perry, Christian Breslauer and Justin Tranter make bold, emotionally driven work. But more importantly, they know what it means to feel something fully and still let it be seen. In this episode of Unfamous, Katy sits down with Justin to talk about their songwriting collaboration on “Band-Aids” and “Watch It Burn” (out 6/25), and how those songs came from a place of vulnerability, intention, and emotional truth. She talks about fear. About anger she had to let herself touch. About the line between what stays with her and what becomes a song. Then Christian joins to follow that feeling into the visuals. How something heard becomes something you can see. How trust shapes what survives. It’s about songwriting, visual storytelling, and staying open long enough to make something honest. And if you’re building anything creative, it offers a real look at how to trust your instincts, work through resistance, and collaborate without losing your voice.
