Los Angeles, September 25, 2024 – Pop icon Katy Perry is back and ready to set the world ablaze with her highly anticipated The Lifetimes Tour, kicking off in 2025. This exciting announcement comes hot on the heels of her new sixth studio album, 143, promising fans an unforgettable experience filled with music, energy, and a sprinkle of her signature flair.
Perry Kicks Off Tour with Australian Dates
Katy Perry took to social media to unveil the first leg of The Lifetimes Tour, revealing her initial tour dates in Australia, which will commence in June 2025. Fans can look forward to electrifying performances in major cities, including Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Perth. Expressing her enthusiasm, Perry shared, “143 is a party and you’re all invited!” It seems she’s ready to turn the tour into a celebration of love and life.
This marks Perry’s first tour since her Witness Tour in 2018, and the excitement is palpable. Fans are eagerly awaiting additional dates and locations, as Perry has promised more surprises are on the horizon.
New Album 143 Sparks Both Excitement and Controversy
The announcement of the tour comes shortly after the release of Perry’s latest album, 143, which has already stirred the pot in the music industry. Featuring collaborations with artists like 21 Savage and Kim Petras, the album showcases a blend of innovative sounds and lyrical depth. However, it hasn’t been without its controversies. Perry faced backlash for her collaboration with longtime producer Dr. Luke, who has been embroiled in legal battles with fellow artist Kesha over serious allegations of abuse.
Additionally, the album’s lead single, “Woman’s World,” has sparked discussions around its portrayal of feminism, prompting Perry to defend it as a satirical take rather than a literal statement. This mix of celebration and critique only adds to the complexity of her artistry.
