The Department of Tourism of the Philippines was asked for their feedback and reaction regarding the said video. Department of Tourism Secretary, Ramon Jimenez, said that he was "very happy" about Taal Volcano's cameo on the music video. They however, denied any participation or prior knowledge that the scenic Taal Volcano will be used as a panoramic background by the songstress on her latest video. He also added ""It's no secret that when Katy Perry came to Philippines, she fell in love with our country. I wouldn't be surprised if she made the choice (herself). But I do not know that for a fact."
