Las Vegas reportedly betting against another Perry ‘disaster' after residency flops
Katy Perry's Las Vegas residency was such a 'complete failure' that hotels don't want her back. The three-year-long show, Katy Perry: PLAY, apparently bombed so badly that she actually lost the hotel and casino money. 'There was a bidding war between Resorts World and Caesars,' a source told NewsNation. 'Caesars technically lost out — but in the end, Caesars won,' they continued, noting how the residency was a 'disaster for Resorts World, a complete failure.' The insider detailed how Perry was paid between $750,000 and $900,000 a show due to the bidding war, but she 'underperformed' during the entire run, resulting in Resorts World losing cash. 'At the end of the day, Caesars won by losing the (Perry) residency,' the source said. 'No one wants to lose money like that in Vegas.' Technically, the Roar singer returned to Sin City, but only for one show Saturday as part of her current Lifetimes tour. It's the latest criticism the Teenage Dream songstress is facing after she suffered serious backlash following her trip to space on Blue Origin's all-female flight. Perry — along with Gayle King, Lauren Sanchez, activist Amanda Nguyen, former NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe and film producer Kerianne Flynn — took that 11-minute flight in which Perry sang a few lines of What a Wonderful World while floating in zero gravity. The expensive space flight was slammed by many, including a 'disgusted' Emily Ratajkowski and Olivia Munn. In the aftermath of the criticism, Perry posted a video on Instagram, telling fans that she is 'OK' and has 'done a lot work around knowing who I am, what is real and what is important to me. 'When the 'online' world tries to make me a human pinata, I take it with grace and send them love, cause I know so many people are hurting in so many ways and the internet is very much so a dumping ground for unhinged and unhealed.' Perry's tour, which features space-inspired costumes and dance moves, kicked off last month. The Firework singer made it clear she is aware of the mixed feelings she's stirred up among the public, addressing it during her May 12 show in Chicago. 'Well, I thought I was the most hated person on the internet,' she said to the sold-out crowd in a video recorded by a fan. 'I think that's false,' Perry continued as the audience cheered her on. In 2023, Perry revealed she wanted to stick around in Las Vegas. 'I can see myself being in Vegas for periods of time for the rest of my life, especially since I live so close in California,' she told Las Vegas Weekly. 'I'll still go on tours and be putting out records, but it's a great touchstone to come back to.' Joe Rogan mocks Blue Origin space flight guest Katy Perry: 'Basically a guru now' Katy Perry gears up for sci-fi inspired world tour Conspiracy theorists brand all-female Blue Origin space flight as 'fake'
