Katy Perry is feeling the love from her fans, despite any hate she might get online.
At her Lifetimes Tour show in Chicago on Monday (May 12), the pop star joked about her public image with the crowd at the United Center. In a clip taken by one concertgoer, Perry reacts to the audience’s thunderous applause by quipping, “Well, I thought I was the most hated person on the internet.”
As the fans continue to clap and cheer, the “Firework” singer adds, “I think that’s false!”
The show in Chicago comes a few weeks after Perry kicked off her Lifetimes trek supporting 2024 album 143 in Mexico City in late April. Earlier that month, she was part of Blue Origin’s first all-woman space flight — a highly criticized venture that has led to the musician experiencing an influx in negative comments on social media, as alluded to by Perry on stage.
Before that, the former American Idol judge drew criticism for working with Dr. Luke on her single “Woman’s World,” despite allegations of sexual assault leveraged against him by Kesha. In 2014, the “Tik Tok” singer accused the producer of drugging and raping her in 2005, claims he called “false and shocking”; he then sued her for defamation, sparking a nine-year legal battle that finally resolved when the two parties reached a settlement in 2023.
In September, Perry addressed her decision to collaborate with Dr. Luke on Call Her Daddy, acknowledging that the move “started a lot of conversations.” “He was one of many collaborators that I collaborated with,” she added. “But the reality is, it comes from me. The truth is, I wrote these songs from my experience of my whole life going through this metamorphosis, and he was one of the people to help facilitate all that.”
Between her work with Dr. Luke and the space expedition, Perry has certainly seen an uptick in online hate. But in addition to shrugging it off in Chicago, the star also recently got candid with fans about how she’s faring in the face of it all.
“Please know I am ok, I have done a lot work around knowing who I am, what is real and what is important to me,” she commented on Instagram in April. “My therapist said something years ago that has been a game changer: ‘No one can make you believe something about yourself that you don’t already believe about yourself.’ And if I ever do have any feelings about it, then it’s an opportunity to investigate the feeling underneath it.”
