Listen, if you keep DM-ing my man&#8230; you&#8217;ve been doing it for months, ever since the residency. You didn&#8217;t come to see me play.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As the audience reacted with laughter and cheers, she continued: \u201cIf you keep on DM-ing my man I&#8217;m going to have you removed \u2013 seriously, get your own life.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Raising her voice, she added: \u201cHe don&#8217;t want you, Kyle. I&#8217;m his wife. I&#8217;m his, he&#8217;s mine&#8230; stay the f*** away.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nKyle appeared visibly shocked and turned to friends as Katy resumed the set. <\/p>\n<p>\nBut the confrontation was later revealed to be a scripted segment of the performance, leading into her 2024 single \u2018I\u2019m His, He\u2019s Mine\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>\nKaty is eleven shows into her latest tour, which was launched in support of her seventh studio album, 143. <\/p>\n<p>\nThe album, released in September 2024, was met with critical derision and has struggled commercially.<\/p>\n<p>\nKaty\u2019s tour has faced a string of challenges, including delays and low ticket sales. <\/p>\n<p>\nThe opening night in Minnesota was postponed, leaving fans waiting for hours and several dates have since been cancelled.<\/p>\n<p>\nFurther scrutiny has been directed at Katy after her controversial trip to space aboard Blue Origin\u2019s New Shepard NS-31 mission in April, where she joined 69-year-old Gayle King and 54-year-old Lauren Sanchez for an all-female flight. <\/p>\n<p>\nOn her return, Katy knelt on the ground, kissed the Earth, and held a daisy \u2013\u00a0referencing her four-year-old daughter Daisy, whom she shares with Orlando, 47.<\/p>\n<p>\nIn a post-flight interview, she said: \u201cIt&#8217;s not about singing my songs. It&#8217;s about a collective energy in there. It&#8217;s about us. It&#8217;s about making space for future women and taking up space and belonging. <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cAnd it&#8217;s about this wonderful world that we see right out there and appreciating it. This is all for the benefit of Earth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nThe backlash was swift. Many labelled her response \u201ctone deaf\u201d, especially coming days after NASA astronauts Sunita Williams, 58, and Butch Wilmore, 61, returned from a nine-month mission stranded in space.<\/p>\n<p>\nAccording to NewsNation\u2019s Paula Froelich, Katy has not been invited back to resume her Las Vegas residency.<\/p>\n<p>\n A source told the outlet: \u201cThe residency was a disaster for Resorts World, a complete failure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/katy-perry-halted-gig-fume-fan-part-tour-promotional-stunt-1419059.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>19 May 2025 Katy Perry halted a gig to tell a fan to stop messaging her fianc\u00e9 Orlando Bloom \u2013\u00a0as part of a promotional stunt.
