Katy Perry briefly paused her Nevada show to scold a bewildered fan for allegedly sending text messages to her fiancé, Orlando Bloom.
This comes after the singer received backlash for her antics upon embarking on an all-female trip to space, as her "Lifetimes" world tour recorded underwhelming ticket sales in some venues.
Katy Perry has also addressed being the "most hated person on the internet" as critics accuse her of copying other stars, including Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter.
Perry is 11 dates into her 84-date "Lifetimes" world tour and seemingly can't stop pulling off surprises during her performance. The "Roar" hitmaker set tongues wagging when she performed in Mexico several weeks ago, dressed in a space suit following her controversial trip to space.
She followed through on the same path when she performed in front of a packed crowd at T-Mobile Arena in Paradise Valley on Saturday and left a fan stunned as she accused him of sending messages to her fiancé, Orlando Bloom.
Perry, who took to the stage in a leotard and fishnet tights, crouched as she looked for her target in the audience, a fan supposedly called Kyle.
"I know why you're here. Listen, if you keep DM-ing my man... you've been doing it for months, ever since the residency. You didn't come to see me play," she told Kyle, sending the concertgoers into a roar of approval.
"If you keep on DM-ing my man, I'm going to have you removed - seriously, get your own life," she added, per the Daily Mail. "He don't want you, Kyle. I'm his wife. I'm his, he's mine... stay the f-ck away."
Kyle looked stunned as he turned to his friends while Perry continued her performance. However, the outburst is said to be a scripted stunt she employed to connect with her audience before launching into her 2024 single, "I'm His, He's Mine."
Elsewhere during her performance, Perry expertly handled a wardrobe malfunction that threatened to lay bare her entire chest.
While performing her hit song, "Part Of Me," the 40-year-old singer, who wore a reflective cone bra, a matching pair of high-waisted reflective briefs, and pointed thigh-high leather boots, had a concerning moment as her bra nearly came off while she ran across the stage's runway area.
As seen in a TikTok video, she then slowed down and changed her move to look like she was strutting to play off the wardrobe malfunction.
"Oh sh-t, my bra is gonna come off," Perry said into the microphone while walking to the main stage.
The singer was determined to let the show go on as she joined her backup dancers and hit a few moves with her bra still undone, before walking to the side stage to get it fixed.
"Put my bra back on, Patrick," she said out loud again, adding, "Sorry guys, you didn't pay that much."
While Perry's tour has suffered a few setbacks, including a delayed start in Minnesota that caused fans to stand around for hours and underwhelming ticket sales for some dates, she was recently hit with another career blow.
An insider recently shared that she's not welcome back to Resorts World Las Vegas after the hotel slammed her Vegas residency, "Play," claiming it was a "disaster" that cost them money.
"The residency was a disaster for Resorts World, a complete failure," a source told NewsNation's Paula Froelich.
"There was a bidding war between Resorts World and Caesars … and Caesars technically lost out — but in the end, Caesars won," the source noted. "Katy was getting paid between $750,000 and $900,000 a show because of the bidding war, and the entire run, she underperformed and Resorts World lost money."
Perry laughed off claims she was the "most hated person on the Internet" during her tour stop in Chicago on May 12.
A video that went viral captured the moment a packed audience was cheering her for an extended period of time, which she seemingly took in well.
"Well, I thought I was the most hated person on the internet," she told the crowd, per People Magazine.
"I think that's false," Perry continued, as the crowd also continued their cheers for her.
The "California Gurls" singer has received backlash from netizens in recent times, especially after she went on an 11-minute trip to space with an all-female crew.
Perry faced intense criticism after her highly publicized trip aboard Blue Origin's New Shepard NS-31 mission.
The pop star, who joined an all-female crew including Gayle King and Lauren Sánchez, was seen floating inside the space capsule holding a daisy, a tribute to her daughter, Daisy, whom she shares with fiancé Orlando Bloom.
Upon landing, the 40-year-old theatrically emerged with the flower, lifted it toward the sky, then knelt and kissed the ground, a moment that quickly became a target for online ridicule.
Many critics branded the ladies "space tourists," while others slammed the trip as "tone deaf."
Perry's dramatic display on her return to Earth was followed by a post-flight interview where she described feeling "super connected to love" and graciously accepted a reporter's mistaken reference to her as an astronaut.
"It's not about singing my songs," she said at the time. "It's about a collective energy in there. It's about us. It's about making space for future women and taking up space and belonging."
"And it's about this wonderful world that we see right out there, and appreciating it," Perry continued. "This is all for the benefit of Earth."
