Katy Perry Shines Bright: A Look At Her GMA Performance During Quarantine

Nothing can stop Katy Perry from shining onstage — not even a massive baby bump, not even a pandemic! The superstar, who turned 35 this year, kicked off GMA’s annual Summer Concert Series on the morning of May 22 with a twist. This year, instead of her usual performance in New York City’s Central Park, Katy performed from her own backyard due to restrictions on large public gatherings and concerts in New York state.

Katy looked stunning and ethereal in a lemon yellow, tulle dress with puffed sleeves, singing barefoot from a makeshift stage at her home. It makes one wonder if her fiancé, Orlando Bloom, had a hand in constructing that charming stage! She radiated joy and grace, proving that even in these challenging times, music can bring happiness and connection.

During her joyous set, she performed two of her newest songs, starting with “Never Really Over.” Despite the DIY nature of the event, her backstage setup was anything but amateur. With a backdrop of blue skies, trees, and flowers, an army of Katy holograms jammed out alongside her, creating a magical atmosphere. Later, she changed into a blue and green gown to perform her new ballad “Daisies,” cradling her growing baby bump and wearing giant daisy earrings, adding to the whimsical feel of her performance.

This performance was only the second time that Katy sang “Daisies” on television; the first was during the season 18 finale of American Idol on May 17. Wearing a hot pink babydoll dress and matching lipstick, she again performed barefoot from her house, utilizing an impressive green screen setup.

Personal Reflections

It’s not all American Idol and Good Morning America during quarantine, though. There’s plenty of downtime for the expectant pop star. In an interview with SiriusXM Hits 1’s The Morning Mash Up, she expressed her surprise at Orlando’s unwavering support during this time. “He’s seen it all and God bless him he’s still here which is amazing and commendable,” she shared, highlighting their strong bond.

Katy's journey through pregnancy and her successful performances during challenging times remind us all of the power of resilience and creativity. She candidly admitted, “I have definitely tested him and been like, ‘Oh yeah?! Oh yeah, you think you can handle me? Let’s see it!” This playful banter between the couple adds a relatable charm to her already vibrant personality.
