November 17, 2024Nov 17 Interesting! Hope the vocals are on point this time around lol Will definitely help Teenage Dream to return to top 40 on album chart. Nothing can help 143 at this stage.
November 17, 2024Nov 17 143 million albums :lol: where exactly considering her biggest seller has sold 6 million worldwide?
November 18, 2024Nov 18 TD is certified diamond in the US only (10 million)... but no way 143 million combined, that's true.
November 18, 2024Nov 18 Do you think it was slipped in there to bring attention to the album 143 loool
November 18, 2024Nov 18 I think they had 143 on the brain as they'd mentioned it earlier in the write-up. They probably meant to say "over 14 million albums" and added a 3 on the end subconsciously!
December 11, 2024Dec 11 Airing on Saturday 21st December, 6.30pm to 8pm. Seems very early compared to other music specials and on a Saturday rather than Sunday.
December 13, 2024Dec 13 "Katy Perry filmed an ITV special last night, quite randomly, in a Methodist hall in the middle of Westminster. Money is pretty tight at ITV so much so they couldn't really afford to do it. They had the brainwave to start charging for tickets to see Katy. TV audiences are normally free (as are church services, presumably) so that anyone in the crowd can be made to whoop and cheer on demand. Which is perhaps why few people jumped at the £143 tickets on offer, still very much available right up until the 11th hour of filming. Budgets were so bleak, Katy had to take on some product placement. When the show airs later this month you can probably see her receiving an Amazon Prime parcel onstage and taking a sip of some posh fizzy water to help pay for it all."
December 21, 2024Dec 21 The lack of budget really showed. I love Katy but the set made her look like a X-Factor contestant. Hopefully it gives 143 a much needed boost, it needs every sale possible at this point.
December 22, 2024Dec 22 I just watched this. Looked pretty high budget to me... seeing her performing on the roof with the London skyline behind and fireworks going off all around and above her was pretty iconic!

Omg why would Amazon or water need any extra promo?! Did those things actually happen btw? :lol:
January 11Jan 11 What I didn't get was the strange questions celebrities asked her 🤔. It was like random celebrities was paid to go who didn't really know anything about her.
