American Idol’s Katy Perry recently opened up about her upcoming performance at King Charles III’s coronation, expressing her excitement about staying at Windsor Castle.
Speaking with “Extra’s” Melvin Robert right after the show crowned its Top 12, Perry shared her enthusiasm for the royal invite.
Describing the invitation as “very regal,” the hitmaker said: “It was like a cursive I have never seen [before]… I loved it.”
She also mentioned her “honor” in performing at the event, adding: “I’m an ambassador to one of his foundations for the British Asian Trust, which primarily focuses on ending child trafficking, which is a huge issue of our time that people don’t talk enough about, and it just aligned with all my values… He asked me to sing and it all aligned.”
The hitmaker revealed that the royal family is even allowing her to stay at Windsor Castle, saying: “I’m really excited… I might be posting a lot because I’m gonna be in a castle, for real. This is wild.”
The singer also reacted to the news that she has become the first artist to have seven videos reach a billion streams on Vevo.
Katy shared her gratitude, saying: “I always dreamt really big and I never put limits on my dreams, but it’s wild when you don’t put bowling bumpers on your dreams how big they can actually go…
“I really believe in making it happen and putting that hard work behind it and really swinging until you get that lucky moment.”
Katy joins Take That and her American Idol panelist Lionel Richie on the bill for the show to be held in the grounds of Windsor Castle on Sunday May 7 alongside opera stars Andrea Bocelli and Sir Bryn Terfel and singer/songwriter Freya Ridings.
