Katy Perry has been criticised for posing with a three inch flick knife in a photo shoot.
The picture, taken by acclaimed fashion photographer Terry Richardson, was shot for potential use in the promotion of Perry's album, 'One Of The Boys', but later rejected. However, it has subsequently shown up online, causing some to denounce the singer for setting a bad example at a time when knife crime is a hot topic in the press.Richard Taylor, whose son Damilola was stabbed with a broken bottle in 2000, told The Sun: "This woman's behaviour is unacceptable. She must be out of her mind to pose for a picture like this. There is nothing glamorous about knives - they wreck families. Any youngsters seeing her will think it is okay to carry a blade".
Which is a valid point, I guess. Though any youngster who learns all of their values from pictures of Katy Perry has probably been failed somewhere else along the line, too.
