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.'

NHL and Dallas Stars bump Katy Perry ‘Lifetimes Tour' from original concert date
The Dallas Stars reaching the Western Conference Finals in the Stanley Cup playoffs has bumped Katy Perry from her current orbit. The new 'astronaut' is one of the bigger pop stars in the world, but not even that status can move the Stanley Cup from its preferred dates. The NHL, which has the power of at least four used microwave ovens combined, has told Ms. Perry to get out. Perry is currently on her equivalent to Taylor Swift's 'The Eras Tour' with her own 'The Lifetimes Tour,' and is scheduled to play at the American Airlines Center on Wednesday, May 21 in Dallas starting at 7 p.m. Also scheduled to start at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, May 21 at the American Airlines Center: Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals between the Stars and the Edmonton Oilers. According to Dallas Stars president Brad Alberts, the Perry concert has been moved to Thursday, May 22. This conflict was not expected, but these things do happen every so often. There are always Plan Y+Z+X Emergency scenarios, and this is on Perry and her team to figure it out. This is on Perry to show the type of range she demonstrated when she heroically sat in Blue Origin on April 14 as it broke the 'Kármán Line' to officially enter space, and returned 11 minutes after take off. Or, less time than it will take Perry to sing 'Teenage Dream,' 'Last Friday Night' and 'Hot n Cold' during her concert. All entertainment venues, whether it's the AAC, AT&T Stadium or anything else, schedule events based on the priority given to its primary 'tenants.' In the case of the AAC, the Dallas Mavericks are given first priority followed by the Dallas Stars. After that, No. 3 are concerts, festivals, etc. Katy Perry's global audience is just a tick bigger than an NHL team, but in terms of the building she's no better than third. The logistics would be plentiful, but hosting an NHL Stanley Cup playoff game during a Katy Perry concert in the same building at the same time would be one hell of a night of entertainment. T-Swift never even tried that. Alas, that kind of visionary thinking is ahead of its time. As absurd as it sounds, we should all prepare that this sort of combo-package is inevitable. It just won't be Wednesday night at the American Airlines Center.

Dallas Stars Playoff: Dallas Stars playoff game forces Katy Perry to reschedule Dallas concert amid NHL priorities
's long-awaited Dallas performance of her ' The Lifetimes Tour ' has been rescheduled as the Dallas Stars have advanced to the Western Conference Finals of the NHL Stanley Cup playoffs. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Originally booked to perform at the American Airlines Center on Wednesday, May 21, the global pop phenomenon was forced to reschedule her show one day later after the National Hockey League said Game 1 of the Dallas Stars vs. the Edmonton Oilers would be held in the same arena that evening.

This last-minute schedule shift speaks volumes to how the NHL playoffs are given priority even over the biggest pop music acts when it comes to arena booking. As per Dallas Stars president Brad Alberts, the team did not anticipate this point of contention when the initial concert was scheduled, but such overlaps in scheduling are unavoidable. Katy Perry's concert has been rescheduled to Thursday, May 22. Places such as the American Airlines Center have an obvious tenant priority: the Dallas Mavericks of the NBA and the Dallas Stars of the NHL first, followed by concerts and other live performances. While Katy Perry's worldwide popularity is enormous, particularly after her viral Blue Origin space trip adventure, in Dallas, playoff hockey comes first. This is not the first instance that sporting events have caused major tours to relocate. Even mega-artists such as Taylor Swift have had comparable reschedule situations because of arena availability. The logistical issue of hosting a high-energy NHL playoff game and a stadium concert in one evening is an almost impossible task—even if the fans can dream about it. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Also read: While the postponement might frustrate some fans, Katy Perry's Dallas concert is still going on—simply a day behind schedule. For music enthusiasts as well as hockey fans, this minimal adjustment ensures both events take their turn in the spotlight. As the Dallas Stars prepare to make history in an important series and Katy Perry gets ready to electrify the stage, Dallas remains at the center of this week's entertainment world.

Katy Perry suffers huge humiliation on latest leg of doomed Lifetimes Tour
Katy Perry fans were forced to stand around for two hours before finally being let in to a recent Minnesota show in the latest setback for her disastrous world tour. The Teenage Dream singer's Lifetimes Tour has faced an onslaught of criticism leading to low ticket sales and canceled dates. At her show at the Target Center in Minneapolis Tuesday night doors were scheduled to open at 6pm but did not open until about 8:15pm, according to The Minnesota Star Tribune. Venue staff told the disgruntled crowd over bullhorns that the delay was due to 'production delays.' Furious fans shared videos of the massive lines they were forced to wait in calling it 'disastrous.' 'A couple people fainting bc the venue lobby was so overcrowded and had no airflow. Total chaos,' one person said. 'They're herding us like cows at the KATY PERRY lifetimes tour doors opened 90 minutes ago and we're STUCK here. KATY won't let us in. LET ME IN KATY,' said another. Sources told the newspaper that Perry's crew arrived to the city late after doing a show in Chicago the night before. The Teenage Dream singer's Lifetimes Tour faced an onslaught of criticism leading to low ticket sales and canceled dates Music critic Chris Riemenschneider said that despite the delay, Perry hit the stage only 30 minutes later than expected, but that she did not apologize to fans. 'In fact, the pop star acted as if Tuesday's voyage was entirely smooth sailing. And as Katy Perry concerts go, this one indeed fell right in her usual orbit,' he said. Riemenschneider described the singer's concert at the Target Center as strange and incohesive. 'Tuesday's concert was weird even by Perry's standards. Its Las-Vegas-meets-Battlestar-Galactica stage production was hopelessly bloated and disjointed,' he said. 'The show was built around a dopey video game storyline where fans had to save butterflies and bring humanity back to our modern computer-driven world. Or maybe we were just supposed to dance a lot to save the world? It was hard to follow.' Over the weekend, eagle-eyed fans noticed yet another sign that her Lifetimes Tour might not have the biggest budget considering how she manually flapped the mechanical wings on her wired butterfly prop. X user @PerrysBiSide tweeted a video of the 40-year-old pop star rising and lowering her rear end last Saturday captioned: 'Why did no one mention she's moving the wings with her a**?' The storyline for the Firework singer's tour involves her portraying a half-human, half-robot video game character who battles an 'all-powerful AI called the Mainframe' that stole 'the world's butterflies.' The butterfly moment happens when Perry, born Katheryn Hudson, performs her 2013 hit Roar during the final 'level 5' of the concert in support of her dismally reviewed seventh studio album. While riding a children's pony toy backstage at Paycom Center in Oklahoma City, OK last Friday, the 13-time Grammy nominee admitted: 'This is what it feels like to be on the butterfly every night too.' The former American Idol judge has been suffering severe backlash ever since her space tourist trip on Blue Origin's New Shepard NS-31 mission. Many of her fans have hypothesized that the chaotic nature of the show is due to organizers pulling the plug on elements referencing the space flight at the last minute to avoid further scrutiny.
