Why Katy Perry Does Not Read Reviews of Her Latest Album

Katy Perry, discussing her upcoming Lifetimes Tour with PEOPLE, shared that she refrains from engaging with album reviews to protect her mental health. Perry, known for hit songs like "Hot N Cold" and "Dark Horse," admitted that she occasionally reads reviews, but her therapist’s advice resonated deeply: "What anybody thinks about you is none of your business. It's what you think about yourself." This is prepared by SSP.

Her new album, 143, marks a personal transformation, influenced by her transition into motherhood and the life changes during the COVID-19 pandemic. Designed to be a life soundtrack rooted in celebratory themes of love and self-discovery, Perry explained the significance of this project for her personal growth and connection to a feminine divine energy.

Perry also addressed some criticisms she faced, including her collaboration with Lukasz "Dr. Luke" Gottwald, emphasizing that the songs are products of her unique life journey, where Gottwald was just one of many who helped facilitate her creative expressions.

Moreover, she responded to concerns regarding her "Women's World" music video, initially seen as catering to the male gaze. Posting behind-the-scenes content on Instagram, Perry explained the creative intent was a play on stereotypes, designed to be humorously overt and exaggerated.

Katy Perry's Lifetimes Tour promises to be a "love-filled spectacle," highlighting a genuine celebration of love she says she’s been searching for all her life. The U.S. leg kicks off on May 7 at Houston’s Toyota Center.
