Brazilian Star Gretchen Takes Over Katy Perry's 'Swish Swish' Lyric Video

We've all seen Brazilian singer Gretchen all over our timelines with her countless reaction GIFs, but now the online staple comes to life in the lyric video for Katy Perry's "Swish Swish."

On Monday (June 3), Perry released the lyric video and it's a total ode to the star, who was a pop sensation in the '70s and ‘80s with hits like "Freak Le Boom Boom," "Melô do Piripipi" and "Conga Conga Conga," before transitioning her fame to reality television. Now, the 58-year-old serves as a stand-in for Katy in the almost four-minute clip, which shows the star and backup dancers living their best in a cool neon-lit set. Interested in Katy’s thoughts on the viral star? "She's amazing. She's iconic. She is the internet," the star recently said of Gretchen. 

Perry's release of the lyric video would indicate that the pop star is moving forward with "Swish Swish" even though it was revealed that "Save As Draft" is her next single. Interestingly enough, the song is being sent to adult pop radio station, so maybe there will be a dual promotion to cater to different audiences. Either way, bask in Gretchen's glory in the lyric video below!
