New York, NY (Top40 Charts) With holiday celebrations at hand,
Katy Perry has a special gift for her fans - 1432, the deluxe edition of her new album. Released via Capitol Records in digital format, the new edition features four additional tracks, including the never-before released "OK," alongside the album's original 11 songs.
After opening with a gentle acoustic guitar, "OK" erupts into the infectious, inspirational chorus, as Katy pledges, "I'll never let you drown / no matter if you're up or down." Setting the stage for the New Year, the anthemic song exudes hope, celebrating personal growth and confidence as new ambitions crystalize and relationships are rejuvenated.
A bold, exuberant dance-pop album with the symbolic 143 numerical expression of love as a throughline message, the album's original 11 songs include "Lifetimes," "I'm His, He's Mine" Ft. Doechii, "Gimme Gimme" Ft. 21 Savage, "
Gorgeous" Ft. Kim Petras and "Artificial" Ft. JID.
After launching 143 with a sold-out headline show for over 100,000 fans at Rock in Rio in Brazil in
September 2024, Katy is excited to return to the road. The global pop superstar will kick off The Lifetimes Tour on April 23, 2025, with the first of three shows at
Arena CDMX in Mexico City. The arena run will also take her to Monterrey and Guadalajara, MX, Australia, Canada, South America, the UK and Europe.
Katy will appear as the guest judge on the season premiere episode of "RuPaul's Drag Race," which returns for its 17th season on January 3, 2025. Earlier this year, Katy received the Video Vanguard Award at the VMAs and performed a show-stopping, career-spanning medley of her biggest hits, which included the debut television performances of two singles from 143 - "I'M HIS, HE'S MINE," with a surprise appearance by Doechii, and "LIFETIMES."
