Katy Perry is "owning [her] sexuality" with her new music.
Katy Perryis proud of her sexuality
The 39-year-old pop star - who has three-year-old daughter Daisy with fiance Orlando Bloom - faced a backlash over her comeback single 'Woman's World' and its accompanying raunchy music video, but she isn't worried about the criticism as she's happy to "celebrate" herself and her feminiinity.
According to the Daily Star newspaper, she told a French TV station: “I’m owning my sexuality. I am standing in it, and I feel really responsible. I don’t feel ashamed.
“I’m like, t*** out, and happy about it. My t*** give me life. I brought a child into this world, and she is alive because of them t******, so let’s celebrate them!”
Since bringing her daughter Daisy into the world with husband and actor Orlando Bloom, 47, Katy feels she has evolved as an artist.
She added: “My life has changed a lot. I have a daughter who is almost four. Becoming a mother made me feel like… I became even more of a woman."
The 'Teenage Dream' hitmaker promised her new album, '143' - which will be released on 20 September - will make fans happy because she's retained so much of the sound that propelled her to success in the 2010s.
She said: “It’s dance-pop with so much energy—bright and sexy. It’s divided into three parts.
“One is more like ‘Dark Horse’. Another blends ‘Walking on Air’, ‘Never Really Over’, and ‘Teenage Dream’. And the other part is quintessentially me, like ‘Hot N Cold’ and ‘California Gurls’.”
143 will be Katy's first album since 2020's Smile, which reached number five on the UK albums chart.
