Katy Perry ditches world tours to focus on releasing music
After four major world tours, Katy Perry says she’s quitting to focus on releasing new music. She made the announcement just days after the release of her new single, “Never Really Over.”
Perry has performed over 500 shows in the course of her four world tours. But now 34-year-old Perry is ready for a much-needed break.
“I don’t really want to go on tour right now. I can’t make a record while I’m on the road because one thing suffers,” Perry told The Sun, a British newspaper.
She said times have changed since she released her first album in 2008, and she needs time to update her music and catch up on current trends.
“I feel a little bit like 2008 was a time, and now 2019 is a totally different time, and all of the change that has happened in between that, it’s a totally different playing field,” Perry told The Sun. “I mean, you have to rewire and relearn. I would say that, as an observer, and a big fan of music, there are fewer characters. Lots of songs come out, but fewer characters and personalities.”
After releasing her new single this week, Perry offered girl-power support to other female artists on Twitter, including Miley Cyrus, Tove Lo, and Cardi B, calling them “talented goddesses” and hyping their new music.
