Katy Perry says the moment she appeared to get her eyelid stuck during her Las Vegas residency was a โbroken doll eye party trickโ.
The singer, 38, seemed to suffer the glitch on Monday (October 24, 2022), prompting fans to say she had experienced a โmechanical failureโ and joke she had been replaced by a cyborg.
Katy shared a clip of the moment on Thursday (27.10.22) on her Instagram, and wrote in a caption: โWelcoming all my #flatearthers #spaceisfakers#birdsarentrealers #skyisntbluers to come see my broken doll eye party trick IRL in Vegas next year! The showโs set list is a fun through memory lane going all the way back to 2008, a time when we werenโt all frozen by the paranoia of our own echo chambers!
โThis show is a nonstop party about finding unconditional love and strangely (for me) not political at all, heck I pour beer out of my t*** (thatโs a party trick tooโฆ I donโt actually lactate hops silly goose!) Hope to sing along with you in 2023! And weโll drink, this oneโs on me, cause weโre all #chainedtothealgorithm #therealproblemlolhaha.โ
Katy paused her performance in Vegas while she seemed to struggle to open her right eye before continuing her performance.
She started her โPlayโ residency in Las Vegas in December 2021, with stage stunts including the singer emerging from a giant toilet.
Katy, who shares daughter Daisy Dove, two, with her fiancรฉ Orlando Bloom, 45, told The Cut site on Monday (24.10.22) she is usually โlong goneโ by the time people recognise her from her motherhood classes.
She said: โWe do a lot of mommy-and-me classes. This morning, I was with her at a ballet class, and this woman goes, โOh my god, you look so much like Katy Perry.โ
โAnd I was like, โHi, nice to meet you. I care about my kid and take her to classesโ โ Iโve become a member at all the museums โ we go to the zoo, the Natural History Museum, the kidsโ museum. Thatโs my new club.
โPeople do recognise me, but by the time theyโre like, โIs thatโฆ? Was thatโฆ?โ Iโm already gone.โ
