Sorry, a catfight between Sara Bareilles and Katy Perry is never going to happen. Despite harsh criticism from her rabid fans against Katy Perry, Bareilles clarified Friday that she does not consider Perry's "Roar" a rip-off off her song, "Brave," according to E!Online.

Mirror reports that criticisms against Perry's "Roar" had surfaced since early August, when it was leaked online and fans were able to listen to the track and were struck with how similar the song was with Bareilles' single. The same observation spread across the web, and recently, some angry fans took to social media to express their anger over Perry, claiming the "California Girls" singer ripped off Bareilles.

Bareilles says she had been overwhelmed by the buzz created by the criticism, but disapproves of how fans reacted with negativity on the comparison of the two hit songs. She told E!Online, "I was stoked. I was like, 'Great;' 'You guys want to go get (mad) about something and buy my music, that's great.'" She quickly clarifies though, that there is no issue with her, as she explained, "I don't feel like anything was taken from me artistically."

Unbeknownst to fans, Bareilles and Perry are long-time pals, and once rumors of the rip-off surfaced, the two just laughed it off. She said, "I've known Katy a long time. I look at it as two female artists who are releasing a message of empowerment," according to E!Online. Bareilles even suggested to Perry that they might need to work on a mash-up to let everybody know they're not mad at each other.

"Roar" is included in Katy Perry's new album, "Prism" which will be available on October 22. Other songs on the track list include, "Legendary Lover," "Birthday," "Walking On Air," "Unconditionally," "Dark Horse" featuring Juicy J, "This Is How We Do," "International Smile," "Ghost," "Love Me," "Double Rainbow, and "By The Grace Of God," according to Fashion and Style.

The two songs are currently doing well on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, with Perry's "Roar" at No. 2 and Bareilles' "Brave" at No. 31.
