Katy Perry recently enjoyed a three-month stay in Australia, accompanying her fiancé Orlando Bloom during the filming of his latest movie, Wizards!, in North Queensland. During a recent interview on Channel Nine’s Today Show with American country music singer Thomas Rhett, the pop star, aged 38, expressed her love for the people of Australia.
Katy Perry shared the love she has for Australia, describing the country as unique and exciting during her tours there. She mentioned how Australians are just as lively and quirky as she is. In an interview with Lisa Wilkinson on The Project, Katy also joked about the ‘danger’ in Australia, recounting her encounters with creepy crawlies with her partner Orlando.
While appearing on Channel Nine’s Today Show with American country music star Thomas Rhett, Katy expressed her admiration for the people of Australia. Recalling her experience in Cairns near Port Douglas, she shared a story of encountering a hairy spider the size of a large circle on her bedstand. Katy had to use her hoody to get rid of the arachnid, but that was not the only wildlife encounter she had while up north. She mentioned seeing a black snake and a mini octopus that can be deadly with just one bite. It was definitely a wild adventure for the I Kissed A Girl singer in Australia.
“I absolutely enjoy traveling to Australia. The people there are truly unique and quirky, just like me,” she expressed. “But it’s important to be cautious, there are crocodiles in the beaches there. Australia can be quite dangerous.”
Host Lisa, who is 62 years old, playfully added, “Despite the dangers, Australia is still fabulous. Isn’t that right, Katy? Remember what they say, Katy?”
“Yep,” Katy replied with a smirk. “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. Or you might just lose a limb.”
During her appearance on The Project with Lisa Wilkinson, Katy shared her thoughts on why she finds Australia to be a bit risky. Reflecting on her experiences with her partner Orlando, she mentioned the encounters they’ve had with various Australian insects and other critters.
