Katy Perry loves her fans for life — and the feeling is mutual.
The singer, 40, kicked off her Lifetimes Tour in support of her latest album, 143, in Mexico City in April. Since then, she’s made stops in various cities across the United States, Canada and Australia, with plans to tour more countries across the globe through the end of the year.
At each tour stop, Perry’s loyal legion of fans — affectionately known as her “KatyCats” — have honored her by recreating or putting their own spin on some of the star’s most iconic looks from throughout her career.
Many supporters have opted to wear ensembles reminiscent of those Perry wore during her fan-favorite Teenage Dream era.
Others, meanwhile, have donned attire that pays tribute to Perry’s Super Bowl XLIX halftime show from 2015. One fan wore an outfit at one stop identical to one the “Thinking of You” musician wore while performing, as two other supporters were dressed as “Left Shark” — a costumed dancer who went viral due to his uncoordinated dance moves — during another concert.

The Lifetimes Tour marks Perry’s first since Witness: The Tour, which ran from 2017 to 2018. She also took part in her first concert residency, Play, which was performed at the Resorts World Theatre in Las Vegas from 2021 to 2023.
Perry’s latest trek across the globe sees her perform songs from her latest album, such as “Woman’s World,” “I’m His, He’s Mine,” “Nirvana” and “Crush,” as well as other hits from her iconic discography, including, “California Gurls,” “I Kissed a Girl,” “Roar” and “Firework.”

Perry has connected with her fans in various ways since The Lifetimes Tour kicked off. She will bring supporters on stage before she performs a second “Choose Your Own Adventure” song, where the audience votes on the tune they want the pop star to play.
At one stop, the singer performed “Happy Birthday to You” for one attendee, and at another, Perry celebrated a 12-year-old fan, who said she wanted to be a marine biologist when she grew up. One other special moment took place during a show in Australia in July, when Perry brought a young fan onstage to dance with her — fulfilling one of the boy’s life goals.
Perry’s latest concert tour has already found massive success with sold-out shows across North America and Australia — and many international dates have seen identical fanfare.
Four shows taking place in China in November sold out in one minute, and when an additional date was announced in Shanghai, it also sold out instantly.
Perry originally planned for only one show while in Paris, but when fan demand exceeded expectations, she added an additional two shows, all of which are sold out.
When the mother of one heads to South America, she will be performing three stadium shows, marking a career first.
