As Katy Perry’s Play residency in Las Vegas comes to an end, the singer is already planning her next move. In an interview with Out, Perry revealed that she is working on a new album and preparing for a new tour. Despite her successful residency in Vegas, Perry stated that there are many fans who were unable to attend and she is eager to get back on the road and reconnect with them. The singer’s last tour was in 2018, so she feels that it’s time for her to hit the road again and spread her light and love through her music. Perry’s residency at Resorts World in Las Vegas began in late December 2021, with the first leg coming to a close in mid-January 2022.
Katy Perry is gearing up for an exciting year ahead as she finishes up her Play residency in Las Vegas soon. Her fans can look forward to a brand new album release and an upcoming tour that she’s already planning for.
In a recent interview with Out, Katy Perry, the 38-year-old singer and American Idol judge, shared her plans for the future. She recently wrapped up the seventh leg of her residency in Las Vegas, which will resume again in mid-May, late July to early August, and finally from October to November. Perry expressed pride in the show that they created and performed, calling it an all-thriller, no-filler greatest hits show. However, she also acknowledged the logistical challenges in bringing it to the rest of the world due to its intricate stage setup.
Perry also revealed that closing the chapter on PLAY, her residency show, allows her to start a new chapter in her career. The pandemic gave her the time to plan it out thoroughly, and she had great luck with timing. Perry feels a deep connection to Las Vegas, where she used to vacation with her family and visit her grandmother. She acknowledged that the LGBTQ community has been a significant influence on her career and thanked them for their support. Perry estimated that about half of the audience in her shows are from the LGBTQ community.
Conclusion: The seventh phase of the residency came to an end with the performance on Saturday night. The upcoming legs include one in mid-May, another in late July and early August, and the final leg that extends from early October to early November.
Before the outbreak of COVID-19, the artist had been contemplating the idea of a residency. However, it wasn’t until the pandemic hit that she was able to take the time to carefully plan it out.
Interconnected: ‘This place holds a special place in my heart. It’s where my family and I would take our vacations, and where I would visit my beloved grandma in Vegas. Nostalgia floods back as memories of my parents dropping us off in the Excalibur basement come to mind. Every detail is ingrained in my memory,’ she fondly recalled.
Wish List: Although occupied with creating a fresh album and organizing a forthcoming tour, there’s still one major thing on her wish list – to appear as a guest judge on RuPaul’s Drag Race.
Don’t miss out on this! Yesterday, Katy Perry took to Instagram to share some stunning snaps flaunting her gorgeous canary-yellow gown, which she wore on American Idol.
The outfit she wore revealed her toned midsection, thanks to the small halter crop top. According to her, the audience is drawn to the music, feels safe, and enjoys the over-the-top nature of the show. She believes it’s a performance for the community, where she channels her inner Cher, Liza Minnelli, and pop princess. Perry changes costumes frequently to give the audience what she thinks they want. Despite her busy schedule of working on a new album and tour planning, she still hopes to check off one item from her bucket list – being a guest judge on RuPaul’s Drag Race. She considers the show iconic and says it inspires her daily. They are currently figuring out the best date for her appearance.
