]]>A source close to the singer told The Sun she’s planning a big comeback in 2024 when she’ll release her “most personal” album yet. This album will be quite different from anything she has released before, and Perry is planning to take it on the road by the end of next year.
Perry previously told Good Morning America that he’s writing a lot of new music “from a place of love”, but she’s not in a rush to share it with the world.
“I’m always writing, I have been, but I think what’s really important to me is to be celebrating the world that I’ve got to build with all of these wonderful songs and to be responsible for a life for a three-year-old. I will be back, but let me get this right,” she explained.
Perry hasn’t released any new music in 2023, but this year has been pretty eventful, nevertheless. She performed at the Coronation Concert of Charles III this spring, returned to Las Vegas for several more legs of her Play concert residency, and sold her music catalog to Litmus Music for an estimated $225 million.

]]>Perry will join the show in the role of dressmaker Ms. Leopard, helping Mr. Bull and Mrs. Cow out with their wedding in the celebratory Peppa Pig Wedding Party Special. Her appearance is just one of many big surprises planned for Peppa Pig’s 20th anniversary, along with live events and attractions, partnerships, and parties around the world.
Hasbro Entertainment president Olivier Dumont said working with outstanding talent like Perry is a testament to the worldwide success of Peppa Pig and her ability to deliver entertainment no fans will want to miss.
“We’re incredibly thrilled to have such an A-list talent join the family-fun adventures in Peppa Pig! As a loving parent and fan of Peppa herself, Katy Perry is a perfect fit to voice the character of Ms. Leopard,” said Dumont in a press release.
Katy Perry already voiced several other animated characters throughout her career, including Smurfette in two The Smurfs films from the early 2010s and Moe’s girlfriend in The Simpsons.

]]>Litmus acquired Perry’s stake in the master recording royalties and music publishing rights to her five albums released between 2008 and 2020: One Of The Boys (2008), Teenage Dream (2010), PRISM (2013), Witness (2017), and Smile (2020). Teenage Dream alone produced five chart-topping singles on the Billboard Hot 100, making Perry the first female artist in history to chart five songs from the same album at No. 1.
Litmus launched in the summer of 2022, and they previously purchased the back catalog from both Keith Urban and Benny Blanco before setting their eyes on Perry.
“Katy’s songs are an essential part of the global cultural fabric. We are so grateful to be working together again with such a trusted partner whose integrity shines in everything that she does,” said the company’s co-founder and CEO Hank Forsyth in a statement.
Perry’s last album Smile came out in 2020, and she’s mostly been focusing on her Las Vegas residency at the Theatre of Resorts World Las Vegas since its release.

]]>In addition to Richie and Perry, the lineup will also include the Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli, and the British pop group Take That, but without Robbie Williams. British musicians Sir Bryn Terfel, Freya Ridings, and Alexis Ffrench will also join them on stage.
Even though Perry and Richie, who currently both serve as judges on American Idol, don’t hail from the UK, their inclusion at this event doesn’t come as a huge shocker. In addition to knowing King Charles for years, Perry has served as an ambassador of his charity The British Asian Trust, while Richie was appointed the first chairman of the Global Ambassador Group for The Prince’s Trust in 2019.
According to BBC’s official statement, “The concert will celebrate a new chapter in the nation’s history, with themes of love, respect, and optimism, celebrating the four nations, their communities, and the Commonwealth.” It will be held on the grounds of Windsor Castle on May 7.

The list of most played female artists in Britain during the 21st century was based on airplay data and compiled by PPL (Phonographic Performance Limited) ahead of the UK’s National Album Day on October 16th.
The theme for 2021 is “celebrating women in music”.
While P!nk earned prime position, she was followed by Madonna, Katy Perry, and Rihanna, while Lady Gaga rounded out the top five. Adele came in 6th ahead of Beyoncé, Kylie Minogue, Little Mix, and Whitney Houston.

]]>The “Never Really Over” singer’s latest song, “Harleys in Hawaii” is having a major moment, thanks to a new trend on TikTok that involves users lip-syncing part of the chorus. So much so that the single is currently Katy’s most popular track on Spotify.
So what inspired the song?
A little vacay with her fiancé back in the day!
The American Idol judge shared a video on Instagram from a trip she took to Oahu with the Lord of the Rings actor that ultimately inspired “Harleys in Hawaii”.
In the clip, Katy is sitting behind Orlando on a motorbike while both wear sunglasses and the wind whips through their hair.
“I can remember specifically where I was—the street corner I was at in Oahu—and turning that corner and whispering to Orlando, going, ‘I’m going to write a song called “Harleys In Hawaii,’” the pop star recalled during an interview in 2019.
We can’t wait to see what their next vacation inspires.

“Electric” serves as the lead single from the upcoming Pokémon’s 25th-anniversary compilation record, titled Pokémon 25: The Album. This record is expected to feature a total of 14 tracks, and J Balvin and Post Malone will be amongst the artists making an appearance.
