Katy Perry’s Album Release: August 14

Jun 24, 2020 | 6:08 AM

In a radio interview in Connecticut this week, Katy Perry talked about her decision to go forward with releasing a new album in the middle of a pandemic and said there was conversation about not putting it out this year.

She talked about the inspiration behind the yet-to-be-released title track and said, “I mean, There is one song on the record called ‘Teary Eyed’ and it’s really about just dancing through your tears. And I’m like, ‘Wow that really resonates. That slaps. That hits hard for me right now.’ So, I’m excited for it. I’m excited for all of it.”

As for the video for her current single, “Daisies,” She said, “I think I’ll look back at it in 10 years and go, ‘Oh I gave myself a little gift to let my guard down and kind of be vulnerable and naturalistic, cause I’m not that — I love glam. I love more is more. I’m a crow, I’m attracted to the shiny objects and the big things, you know?”

Katy Perry’s new album is set to be released on August 14.
