Katy Perry’s new video “Bon Appetit” is shocking viewers with its depictions of her being literally consumed as food—but the erotic fantasy is a popular fetish easily found in the vore community. In the vaguely NSFW video, Perry is shown kneaded with flour, boiled in a pot, and served on a platter, garnished with fruits and vegetables. It’s generated disapproval for “catering to the cannibal demographic,” but the idea more closely aligns with vore, the fantasy of being consumed or consuming, not actually eating.
With lyrics like “looks like you’ve been starving” and “I’m on the menu,” Perry’s song is about sexual hunger, but the images shown are widely found in the vore community. The fetish includes sexual fantasies about swallowing people or being swallowed, and pornographic images shared on fetish sites of women being prepared to be eaten, like in Perry’s video: “The women are tied up, in huge pots or ovens, placed on spits or plates, and are very clearly alive and consenting,” reports Broadly. While the fetish may be taboo, people who are into vore explain that it’s ultimately a sexual fantasy, not meant to be enacted.
