Katy Perry...of the Illuminati?

Says here in Rolling Stone  that Katy Perry is suspected of being a member of the Bavarian Illuminati, which in turn is described in the latest edition of The Week as "a mythical secret society that controls the world."  Let's leave aside that wonderful description of the Illuminati for the nonce...

...and turn to the question of HOW Katy Perry fell under suspicion in the first place.  The suggestion here is that she made herself look like a member of the world's most successful conspiracy by refreshing herself between shows with practices including cranio-sacral therapy, Transcendental Meditation and cupping, for pete's sake.   Cupping!  That one, at least, probably dates back even farther than the Illuminati, who got started in 1776.  As far as I know, though, the alternative health practices of the Illuminati were restricted to using strictly grade-A pink leeches instead of the slightly-used greenly ones -- oh, and ear candles.

...And how does Perry herself explain her reasons for using these questionable practices? 

 

"When I do it, I feel like I'm opening up holes in my brain, like -- what do they call it -- neural pathways." 

Spoken like a true nonexistent world leader!
