Katy Perry being ‘rude’ after ‘mom-shaming’

It’s a no from these fans.

“American Idol” judge Katy Perry is getting dragged on social media for being “rude and condescending” to contestants who struggled with their duet during the show’s Hollywood Week.

This second wave of backlash comes hot on the heels of Perry being accused of “mom-shaming” contestant Sara Beth Liebe, 25, into quitting the show.

Perry, 38, has been slammed in the past for allegedly harsh comments toward contestants — despite the fact that the initial success of the singing competition hinged on former judge Simon Cowell’s infamously blunt critiques.

The controversy continued after Tuesday’s episode, in which contestants Carina DeAngelo, 25, and Nutsa Buzaladze, 25, struggled throughout their rehearsal to find the same rhythm.

At one point, DeAngelo was left alone to rehearse when Buzaladze left to go to sleep despite her friend wanting her to keep practicing.

“It hurts my feelings when someone doesn’t take it as seriously as I do,” said DeAngelo. “Hollywood Week is not a joke. It’s like ‘Hunger Games’ or something.”

Buzaladze returned to her friend and the duo kept working on their version of “I Put a Spell on You” till 3:20 a.m. Even then, DeAngelo was not satisfied.

“I just want to f–king sound good and it doesn’t right now,” said DeAngelo. “I don’t want to go home.”

The next morning, the duo stood before Perry and co-judges Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan and told them about how they had been clashing.

“What were the issues?” probed Perry, and the two launched into an explanation of what happened.

“Maybe we should let them sing,” said Perry, and the other judges agreed.

Perry's ill-timed comments come while the "I Kissed a Girl" singer is embroiled in another "Idol" scandal where she is accused of "mom-shaming" contestant Sara Beth Liebe who later quit the show.

After stumbling through the song — which failed to enchant the judges — Perry declared the duo’s performance “underwhelming.”

“I just think the energy was broken between both of you and so I think you couldn’t give each other the energy you both needed. That you both deserved,” said Perry.

“I think you’re both better than that performance.”

The judges voted to keep Buzaladze on the show while they sent DeAngelo packing.

The singing competition is no stranger to being slammed for its judges’ seemingly harsh comments.

Original “AI” judge Simon Cowell, 63, was legendary for giving harsh advice, sometimes even upsetting fellow judges Randy Jackson, 66, and Paula Abdul, 60, in the OG run of the show from 2002 to 2016.

Alas, Perry’s “underwhelming” remark drew the ire of fans.

“Katy is so rude and condescending to the contestants unless it’s a male cutie then she acts like a teenage fool,” slammed a commenter on a photo that host Ryan Seacrest, 48, posted on Instagram. “One contestant quit because of her, bye-bye Katie!”

“I’m OVER Katy Perry,” one viewer raged about the “Teenage Dream” singer. “She was incredibly insensitive and unkind to a sweet, raw and honest Sara Beth Liebe as if she’s forgotten what it’s like to be young and new to the ‘dream.’ “

“I turned IDOL OFF tonite, it was ridiculous the pandering of the judges … contestants didn’t know the words, they are NOT professional and they are blubbering idiots,” another sniped on Seacrest’s Insta snap thread. “And the Katy Perry remarks were rude also. Lost control, the show is now contrived and it’s an insult to the viewer! Bye bye.”

Several viewers on Twitter also disagreed with the judge’s latest choice.

“They sent the wrong one home,” argued one fan.

“Sent wrong one home!! I liked @carinadeangelo voice much better!! Could not believe they kept ol girl!! Ugh,” another disgruntled viewer chimed in.

The Post reached out to Perry for comment.

Meanwhile, the “Roar” singer is embroiled in another “Idol” scandal. Some viewers are accusing her of “mom-shaming” contestant Liebe into quitting the show.

The 25-year-old appeared on the March 5 episode and revealed to the shocked judges that she was a mother of three.

Perry mock-staggered away from the judge’s table and Bryan began to fan her.

“If Katy lays on the table, I think I’m going to pass out,” joked Liebe.

“Honey, you’ve been laying on the table too much,” retorted Perry.

Not everyone took offense to the exchange: “How was Katy Perry ‘mom shaming?’ ” one fan countered. “It was literally a joke. Sara Beth came across like she wasn’t as invested in her music career compared to other contestants, hence why Katy kept pushing her for more. It was frustrating. She literally said yes to her y’all!”

Liebe herself issued a statement Tuesday on her Instagram Story saying that she’s “not even mad” about Perry’s comments.

“If you watch my videos, you’d know that I’m not even mad. I’m just trying to do music,” stated the mom of three.

Liebe said the decision to quit the show was “not a ploy,” nor was she just trying to get her 15 minutes of fame.

“I’m so over it,” she added. “No more.”

“American Idol” airs Sundays at 8 p.m. Eastern on ABC.
