Katy Perry Praises Lady Gaga After Attending ‘Mayhem’ Show: ‘So Proud of You’
The "Woman's World" artist added that she's "grateful to grow up" with Mother Monster.
Katy Perry loves sharing her woman’s world with Lady Gaga. In the crowd at Mother Monster’s ¡Viva La Mayhem! concert in Mexico City Saturday (April 26), the “Firework” singer was one of tens of thousands of fans cheering on Gaga, whom she later praised in a sweet message on Instagram.
In a clip posted to her Story two days after the show, Perry and a friend passionately sing along with Gaga as the latter performs Mayhem single “Abracadabra” on stage at GNP Seguros Stadium. The former American Idol judge — who arrived with her team to witness the locally dubbed “¡Viva la MAYHEM!” show — also shared a video of Gaga singing “Perfect Celebrity.”
“Show was MAGINIFCA!” Perry wrote. “The dress! The sand! Every moment was theee moment.”
“So proud of you and grateful to grow up together @ladygaga,” the singer also gushed. “Love u.”
Gaga’s performance in Mexico’s capital came just three days after Perry kicked off her own Lifetimes Tour in the city, performing a mix of past hits and selections from 2024 album 143 at Arena CDMX Wednesday (April 23). Much of the show featured space-themed outfits and visuals, matching the “California Gurls” musician’s recent trip above the Earth’s atmosphere – about 62 miles up to the Kármán line, which is the internationally recognized boundary of space — on Blue Origin’s first all-woman space flight April 14.
At one point, Perry invited two fans dressed as astronauts to join her on stage. “You guys look so good,” she gasped at the time. “I want these gentlemen to come on stage, because they are dressed like my most current timeline.”
The Haus Labs founder first premiered her Mayhem live show at this year’s Coachella, headlining the festival April 11 and 18. She’ll next perform in Rio de Janeiro for a special Mayhem on the Beach performance May 3, after which she’ll set up shop for four nights in Singapore before embarking on her Mayhem Ball tour through North America, Europe and Australia.
“To all my beautiful little monsters who are here tonight, it is an honor for me to be here, in your beautiful country, performing for you,” Gaga told her fans in Mexico City Saturday. “It’s been 13 years since the last time I was here. I hope you see how hard I’ve worked on stage tonight to show you how much I admire and respect you. I sincerely thank you for choosing to spend the night with me.”
