Katy Perry California Dreams World Tour To Rival Lady Gaga, Pink

Katy Perry has said she wants her upcoming California Dreams world tour to rival recent jaunts by Lady Gaga and Pink.

Perry's tour includes an initial UK leg in the spring and will also return later in the year for a second stint.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Perry revealed that she had been inspired to put on an elaborate show after watching Pink's recent Circus tour.

The singer, who has aligned herself with the same director as Pink, said: “Touring is no longer an ordinary thing where you play an instrument in jeans and a T-shirt.

“It has some pizazz these days, and I'm definitely bringing the pizazz with a lot of bells and whistles. The show has a Broadway feel to it.

“It's got a storyline that's going to be very interesting, kind of loosely based on my life, but a cartoon version."

As well as an impressive visual spectacle, Perry said that show would also smell like cotton candy.

Tickets are on sale now.
