Katy Perry<\/strong><\/a> seemingly had a hilarious wardrobe malfunction<\/a> backstage at American Idol<\/em><\/a>, where her red dress was so tight she was unable to take it off.<\/p>\n \u201cI can\u2019t get this dress off,\u201d Katy, 39, said while sitting in a chair as her red frock clung tightly to her body, especially in the torso and chest, in an Instagram Reel video<\/a> she shared on Monday, April 1.<\/p>\n \u201cWell, we can cut if off,\u201d someone off camera was \u200bheard telling the \u201cDaisies\u201d singer. Being the fashion lover that she is, Katy sighed and replied, \u201cYou can\u2019t just cut Bottega.\u201d<\/p>\n It\u2019s unclear if \u200bher zipper was stuck or why the AI<\/em> judge couldn\u2019t get out of her gorgeous red dress. She was \u200bcamera-ready with full makeup and matching red lipstick, while wearing her hair pulled back in a long, straight ponytail.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ve been cutting kids on #idol but you can\u2019t cut Bottega,\u201d Katy captioned the video, while including a sad faced emoji and a pair of scissors.<\/p>\n Fans and celebrity friends got a kick out of the Grammy nominee\u2019s situation. \u201cI\u2019m dead,\u201d hairstylist to the stars Chris Appleton<\/strong> wrote in the comments, while others agreed with Katy\u2019s sentiment about how she couldn\u2019t destroy her dress. \u201cCutting Bottega is crazy tbh\u2026\u201d one fan wrote, while another added, \u201cYou def can\u2019t,\u201d about taking a scissors to a design by the high-end Italian label.<\/p>\n While Katy couldn\u2019t get out of her American Idol<\/em> outfit, she wouldn\u2019t have had that problem with the one she wore on the red carpet at the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards<\/a>\u00a0on Monday, April 1.<\/p>\n The \u201cCalifornia Gurls<\/a>\u201d songstress showed off her incredible figure by wearing a black bra and panties<\/a> underneath a black fishnet coverup with red bows tied on the sides. It was completely see-through and one of Katy\u2019s most daring red carpet looks ever.<\/p>\n Several fans thought the outfit signaled her return to being a pop music superstar after taking time away from music to focus on American Idol and her daughter Daisy, 3, whom she shares with fianc\u00e9 Orlando Bloom<\/strong>.<\/p>\n \u201cPop star energy back, we missed you Katy Perry,\u201d one fan wrote on X next to a photo of the \u201cRoar\u201d singer in her racy outfit. \u201cMy GOODNESS imagine telling a katycat in 2020 that this is going to be KATY PERRY in future for her BIG COMBACK\u2026I\u2019d FAINT,\u201d another added about her look.<\/p>\n \u201cObsessed with this marketing idea of the Katy Perry red carpet renaissance before she announces anything,\u201d one person noted. Several thought her outfit signaled a new era in music for Katy, who announced during a February 11 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live<\/em> that she was likely leaving Idol<\/em> <\/a>after the current season 22.<\/p>\n \u201cI think this probably will be my last show, my last season for Idol<\/em>. I love Idol so much. It\u2019s connected me with the heart of America, but I feel like I need to go out and feel that pulse to my own beat,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n Katy hasn\u2019t released a major studio album since 2020\u2019s Smile<\/em>, and fans have eagerly been awaiting a new LP of original music from the \u201cFirework\u201d hitmaker.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
