Katy Perry sort of said this is her last season on “American Idol.” She’s been there seven years.
Is this really the end? Or is Katy just negotiating in public? She says she’s performing at Rock in Rio in September, and maybe she has a new album.
But Katy’s recording career has been on the slide since she began her “Idol” stint. She hasn’t had a hit record in a long time, and a lot of her record buying audience has moved on. It’s not so easy to break a new album after a long time out. She can still do tours and sing her hits, but at 39 she’s got a good gig on “Idol.” I wouldn’t think she’d give it up so fast.
Again, Katy hasn’t had a release since 2020, and that was “Daisies.” Ironically. that song’s writer, Michael Pollack, wrote Miley Cyrus’s big hits “Flowers” and “Used to Be Young.” Maybe she can get him to write a new album now.
