Katy Perry is one of the biggest artists of recent years, known for her hit songs and her genuine personality that makes it hard for her to go unnoticed. Recently, she announced her The Lifetimes Tour and released her latest album, 143. The tour will kick off on April 25, 2025, in Mexico City, Mexico.
Katy arrived in Mexico full of energy to promote the tour, but what she probably didn’t expect was the unique humor of the Mexican TV show Venga la Alegría. The singer, who will perform at Arena Ciudad de México, Arena Monterrey, and Arena Guadalajara, had a moment that quickly went viral on social media.
Her appearance on the show sparked mixed reactions. Some viewers found the show’s approach uncomfortable for Katy, while others saw it as a sweet way to honor her. However, most people felt the moment was a bit awkward, as Katy’s expression seemed a bit confused at times.
From the moment Katy Perry stepped onto the set of the morning show, she was thrown into a series of activities that, while typical on Mexican TV, might have seemed a bit unusual to her. One of the most talked-about moments was when one of the hosts, excited, asked her not to leave because they wanted to keep ‘honoring’ her.
The hosts and guests decided to pay tribute by performing some of her iconic dance routines. Katy, with a smile that many thought looked a bit forced, patiently watched as they performed routines that probably wouldn’t make it to Las Vegas. The pop star stayed polite, but her facial expressions and reactions didn’t go unnoticed, and memes quickly flooded social media.

As if Katy didn’t already have enough going on, the ‘cultural’ part of the show came next: she was invited to experience Mexican public transportation. Surrounded by ‘street vendors’ and ‘clowns,’ Perry seemed a bit confused about what was happening, but she stayed involved. While it’s unclear whether the experience left her more fascinated or completely puzzled, it certainly gave people a lot to talk about.
