Katy Perry shares behind-the-scenes tour photos taken by her 4-year-old daughter
Published in Entertainment News
It looks like Katy Perry’s daughter might have a future as a tour photographer.
The 40-year-old “Firework” singer is less than one month away from kicking off “The Lifetimes Tour” — her fifth concert tour following the release of her seventh studio album, “143.”
The tour commences on April 23 in Mexico City — and the singer is bringing her daughter with her.
On March 30, Perry took to Instagram to share a few behind-the-scenes photos of rehearsals for the tour but noted that they weren’t taken by a professional photographer.
Instead, they were taken by her 4-year-old daughter, Daisy.
“Tour rehearsal photos by Daisy,” the “Hot N Cold” singer wrote in the caption.
The Instagram carousel featured photos of Perry wearing a gray hoodie and green baseball cap as she rehearsed with her bandmates, as well as a look at her daughter’s dirty pink Crocs.
Daisy Dove, born in August 2020, is the lone daughter of Perry and her fiance Orlando Bloom — who also shares a 14-year-old son, Flynn Copeland, with his ex-wife, Miranda Kerr.
Perry and Bloom started dating in 2016 and have been engaged since 2019, per People.
The rehearsal photos come roughly two months after Perry revealed her plans to bring Daisy along on her seventh-month concert tour.
It’s the singer’s first tour in more than seven years and will feature 83 concerts in dozens of cities around the world.
“She’s definitely going to come out and bring her light,” Perry said in an interview with People, published Jan. 29.
“She is so excited. She’s an extrovert, of course, being raised by two extroverts, and she loves music and she loves Mom’s songs,” she continued.
Perry said her shows will start earlier than her previous concerts — 8:30 p.m., to be exact — because she now understands “firsthand how long bedtime routine takes.”
Nonetheless, she says having her daughter by her side will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
“It’s going to be exciting to bring her around the world and show her some unique cultural stuff and learn. It’s a whole education in and of itself,” Perry told People.
And while Bloom’s son Flynn won’t be tagging along, he has already left his imprint on Perry’s new album.
In a September interview with Mike Adam of “Audacy,” Perry was asked if she ever turns to her family members for musical advice or opinions while promoting the release of “143.”
She said she doesn’t do listening parties for her family, but she does trust one person’s advice more than others: her fiance’s son.
“I’ll play things to Orlando’s son, who’s 13, and he has a really good ear,” Perry said to Adam. “He’s probably the best person out of my whole family.”
The two even have similar tastes in music, per Perry.
“He’s got good taste,” she continued. “He loves this song called ‘All the Love,’ which is on 143. And that’s like one of my favorite songs that I wrote.”
Meanwhile, her daughter has already taken a strong liking to some of her mother’s greatest hits.
“She actually just started singing ‘Roar,’” Perry revealed in a July interview with “The One Show,” per People .
“On the flip side, she’s also singing ‘Peacock,’ and now I know what every parent went through in 2008,” Perry joked. “And I’m sorry!”
Perry’s “The Lifetimes Tour” is expected to conclude on Nov. 11 in Madrid, Spain.
The tour is primarily centered on her “143” album, but Perry has said it will be a “celebration of a lot of the songs that people know,” per People.
