While most of the fans were thrilled with the news, some shared critical opinions. One fan remarked concerning the announcement:
''I think you’re over hyped and overrated. Calm down.''
These were some of the reactions to Perry’s announcement. Katy’s The Lifetimes Tour has received wide acclaim for aerial theatrics, stage designs, and artistic flair. The performances unfold within a video game-inspired narrative, capturing Perry’s half-human, half-machine battle to save butterflies from an AI overlord known as “Mainframe.”
Her costumes at the concert have also drawn attention, including robotic outfits and lightsaber duels, giving the audience a truly immersive, sci-fi spectacle. Although some loved the theme and costumes, others found them “low effort.” The North American leg of the Lifetimes Tour delivered an immersive performance and combined brand-new tracks from 143. These included Artificial, Teary Eyes, Nirvana, with her classic hits like California Gurls, Teenage Dream, Dark Horse, and Firework.
The South American leg of the tour is scheduled to begin on September 6, 2025, in Santiago, Chile, and will conclude on September 19, 2025, in Brasília, Brazil. The leg will run for approximately two weeks, featuring performances in Chile, Argentina, and Brazil.
