A New Musical Milestone
Katy Perry, one of the most successful musicians of all time, is kicking off a new chapter with “Woman’s World.” Fans can pre-save the single and pre-order CD or 7-inch vinyl editions now. With a cumulative 115 billion streams and global sales of over 70 million albums and 143 million tracks, Perry remains a powerhouse in the music industry. She is one of the few artists in RIAA history to join the elite 100 Million Certified Songs club.
First Rock in Rio Performance Since 2015
On Friday, September 20, Katy Perry will headline the sold-out Rock in Rio in Brazil. This will be her first performance at the Rio de Janeiro festival since 2015. Fans can anticipate a spectacular show featuring some of her biggest hits and possibly new tracks from her forthcoming album. The festival is one of the world’s largest and most renowned music events, making Perry’s return highly anticipated.
Achievements and Records with “Roar”
Recently, Perry made headlines in May when her hit single “Roar” reached four billion views on YouTube. This milestone made “Roar” the most-watched video by a female artist on the platform. The video depicts Perry stranded on a jungle island, overcoming challenges and wild animals. The song’s success highlights Perry’s ability to create globally resonant hits.
Reflecting on “Prism” and Perry’s Career
“Roar” was part of the 2013 album “Prism,” which debuted at the top of the charts. Alongside “Roar,” the album featured hits like “Dark Horse” and “Unconditionally.” In 2017, “Roar” was certified Diamond by the RIAA, making Perry the first artist to achieve three Diamond-certified singles in the U.S., joining “Firework” and “Dark Horse.” These accomplishments underscore Perry’s enduring influence in the music industry and her talent for reinvention.
With the upcoming release of “Woman’s World” and her new album, Katy Perry continues to demonstrate why she remains a leading figure in pop music. Her consistent ability to exceed expectations with each new project excites fans worldwide and sets new standards in the industry.
