Katy Perry Announces New Single “Lifetimes” with a TikTok Dance

Katy Perry is gearing up to release her new single “Lifetimes” on August 9, accompanied by a music video. The pop star made the announcement on Monday morning, sharing a teaser snippet on Instagram with a dance challenge.

The 39-year-old singer recently opened up about the inspiration behind the track, revealing that it was inspired by her daughter Daisy, who turns four on August 20. In an appearance on The One Show, Katy shared a heartwarming anecdote about how her daughter responds to her question, “Will you find me in every lifetime?” with a sweet “Yes.”

Katy’s album “143” is set to drop on September 20, and the title holds special significance for the singer. She explained that “143” is her angel number, which she sees as a sign of guidance, confirmation, or confidence that she’s on the right path.

The “Roar” hitmaker has been teasing her new music since late June, and fans are eagerly awaiting the release of “Lifetimes.” The song’s announcement comes less than a month after her comeback single “Woman’s World” received a lukewarm response from fans.

Katy’s decision to work with Dr. Luke on “Woman’s World” sparked controversy, given the producer’s history with Kesha, who has accused him of sexual assault and rape. However, a source close to Katy revealed that she values her working relationship with Dr. Luke and isn’t bothered by the backlash.

With “Lifetimes” on the horizon, Katy is hoping to bounce back from the underwhelming response to “Woman’s World.” The singer has been busy promoting the new single, even coordinating a dance with influencer duo Brooke Blewitt and Jess Qualter.

Irish singing duo Jedward made a surprise appearance in the teaser clip, adding to the excitement around the song’s release. As Katy gears up to drop “Lifetimes,” fans are eagerly anticipating the music video and hoping for a return to form for the pop star.
