In 1996, JonBenét was discovered crushed and strangled within the basement of her dad and mom, Patsy and John Ramsey’s dwelling in Boulder, Colorado.
Nobody was ever charged with the homicide, which sparked a number of documentaries and conspiracy theories through the years — together with the idea that the “Firework” singer is de facto the slain little one magnificence queen.
In case you have been deep on the web circa 2014, you would possibly bear in mind when a wild YouTube video went viral that alleged that Katy was really JonBenét.
The now-deleted video in query was titled “‘JonBenet Ramsey’ is singer ‘Katy Perry'” and claimed that Katy’s actual dad and mom have been Patsy and John Ramsey, and so they faked their daughter’s demise by strangulation and coated it up so she might grow to be well-known. The video additionally prompt that Katy’s look was proof that she was simply an grownup JonBenét.
The web is full of dozens of those “JonBenét Ramsey is Katy Perry” movies, and they’re completely bananas. Except for making claims about her demise being faked, they significantly theorize that Katy’s facial options, like her eyebrows, the bridge of her nostril, jaw form, and so forth., are clear indicators that they’re the identical individual.
Quick-forward to 2025, and now, with the development of AI-generated content material, movies are circulating displaying how JonBenét remodeled into Katy. Katy noticed one in every of these movies, and she or he responded to the out-of-this-world principle.
On a Feb. 27 AI-generated video with the phrases “WAKE UP PPL,” JonBenét, wearing a pink gown, miraculously transforms into an grownup blond-haired Katy. Katy responded to the video, “wait am i,” proving that she’s very a lot conscious of this ridiculous principle.
Put aside YouTube movies with deep voiceovers and AI Instagram movies for a second. There’s one fairly stable motive why this conspiracy principle is ludicrous — JonBenét was born on Aug. 6, 1990, and Katy was born on Oct. 25, 1984.
They are not even near the identical age for one. So, put it to relaxation.
Ridiculous theories apart, the investigation surrounding JonBenét is ongoing as her father continues to attempt to clear up the case. NBC Information reported in January that he met with Boulder’s new police chief, saying, “I am simply very impressed with the caliber of the management now, and that gave me nice hope.” In the meantime, Patsy died of most cancers in 2006.
