Katy Perry 'Roar' Doesn't Concern 'Brave' Singer Sara Bareilles [VIDEOS]

Katy Perry's "Roar" has caused quite a stir, in both the way she wanted it to and otherwise. Many fans pointed out how similar the track was to Sara Bareilles' "Brave." (As a matter of fact, the Blessed Unrest singer saw a huge uptick in sales following the release of Perry's Prism track. 

However, there's at least one person who is unconcerned: Bareilles herself.

"The shame that I feel that's happened is that it's become a drama," she said. "It's putting this negative spin on two artists that are choosing to share positive messages. If I'm not mad I don't know why anybody else is upset. I'm like, 'Relax, let's just celebrate that we can be out there and encouraging people to, like, feel strong and empowered.'" 

She added: "Katy's a friend of mine and we've known each other a really long time, so she even texted me about it and we went back and forth."
