Pop sensation Katy Perry has finally spilled the beans on her long-awaited new album, and it’s got fans buzzing! Titled 143, the LP is set to drop on September 20. Perry, never one to shy away from bold statements, described the album as a “bold, exuberant, celebratory dance-pop album” with the symbolic 143 numerical expression of love as its throughline message. For those not in the know, 143 is a cute shorthand for “I love you” – the number of letters in each word of the phrase.
But wait, there’s more! You can pre-order 143 right now on Katy’s official website.
New Single Alert: “Woman’s World”
The excitement doesn’t stop there. Mark your calendars for July 11, because that’s when the first single, “Woman’s World,” drops. The track’s video will premiere across multiple platforms including MTV Live, mtvU, MTV’s Biggest Pop, and the iconic Paramount+ billboards in New York’s Times Square at 7 p.m. ET. It’s going to be a visual and auditory feast that you won’t want to miss!
Katy’s Return to Rock in Rio
To top it all off, on the same day 143 is released, Katy will be headlining Rock in Rio in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. This marks her first appearance at the legendary festival since 2015, promising a spectacular show that will likely feature new tracks and classic hits.
So, Perry fans, get ready for a whirlwind of music, love, and dance-pop magic. September 20 can’t come soon enough!
