"Peculiarly for such a secretive order, the Illuminati is particularly obvious in the music industry, with everyone from Tupac to Michael Jackson and even One Direction allegedly members or "slaves" to their malicious schemes."

4. Juicy J's Emerging From "Some Kind Of Sarcophagus, Which Features The Occult-Elite's Favourite Symbol - The Eye Of Horus Inside A Triangle" Is Symbolic

"The symbol on the eyes is not even Egyptian, it is purely Masonic. The symbolism in the entire video is not exclusively 'Egyptian', but is the specific symbolism of the occult elite."

"Standing on top of the Illuminati pyramid, Katy-Patra turns into a super-powerful tyrant. That’s probably not a good thing. More importantly, she becomes a personification of the goddess Isis."

vigilantcitizen.com

"The video ends with Katy-Patra becoming a super-Illuminati pharaoh...and everyone bows down to her...and the suitor turns into a chihuahua. The moral of the video? Illuminati."

6. Juicy J's Chariot Has A Horned Animal Figure That "Represents The Sacrificing Of The Youth To These Deities That The Illuminati Worship"

According to Illuminati Watcher, "you see this horned god symbolism all over the music industry".

"You can also see the bull god- Moloch in this video with a few shots of the horns of the bull god who the Canaanites used to sacrifice children to".

However, According To Director Matthew Cullen...

Perry's Video Got A Thumbs Up From A Professor Of Egyptology At The University Of Chicago, "Whoever Put This Together Actually Knew Something About The Myth Of Cleopatra"

“I find this really very wonderful, but I’m willing to bend my formal standards,” says Robert K. Ritner, Professor of Egyptology at the University of Chicago.

"Perry Said That There's Actually A Place In Egypt Called Memphis, And She Thought It Was So Interesting That Juicy J Is From Memphis, Tennessee"

Memphis, Tennessee in the US.

“She basically came to me and said, ‘I want to do something Egyptian and I want to combine it with Memphis hip-hop.’ That’s music to my ears — when an artist has a couple concepts that they want to mash up to create something fresh.”

Points Of The Video That Received A Thumbs Up...

1. The Turquoise Colour Seen In Perry's Make-Up Was Used In Ancient Egypt

"They often used colors inspired by nature, like the sky and water. Sealed tombs preserved the colors of their paintings, so historians can still tell what things would have looked like at the time."

2. The Fan/Monocle Object Perry Holds Up Shows The Symbol Of The Eye Of Horus, A Symbol Of Health And Stability

"It has nothing to do with the Illuminati: 'The many discussions of the Illuminati are nonsense,' says Ritner. Rather, the masonic imagery associated with the Illuminati is drawn from Egyptian imagery."

3. The Lyric About Aphrodite And Perry's Greek-Style Dress Have Been Picked Out By Picky Fans, But Actually, They Make Perfect Sense

"Cleopatra wasn’t properly Egyptian; rather, she was descended from a Macedonian-Greek line, and her culture mixed Hellenic and Egyptian elements. In fact, Aphrodite is the analog to the Egyptian goddess Isis, who is represented by Perry’s winged ascent in the video."

4. The Scene With Perry And The Snakes Suggests A Reference To Cleopatra's Suicide Via Asps

"At the time of her death, Cleopatra was dressed as Isis, which also loops back to Perry growing wings in the video."

5. There Is A Link Between Perry Getting A Diamond Grill To A Myth That Cleopatra Once Dissolved A Giant Pearl In Wine To Demonstrate Her Wealth

"Cullen and Perry even succeeded without trying: though Cullen says this wasn’t on purpose, Ritner sees a link between Perry getting a diamond grill to a myth that Cleopatra once dissolved a giant pearl in wine to demonstrate her wealth."
