Katy Perry explains viral video of her eye ‘glitching’ mid-concert

Katy Perry has responded to a viral video of her right eye seemingly opening and closing uncontrollably, leaving fans worried about her health.

Katy Perry says her creepy eye glitch during her Las Vegas performance was nothing but a stunt.

“Welcoming all my #flatearthers #spaceisfakers #birdsarentrealers #skyisntbluers to come see my broken doll eye party trick IRL in Vegas next year!,” she captioned a video of the alarming moment that she uploaded to Instagram Thursday.

She jokingly added, “Heck I pour beer out of my tits (that’s a party trick too … I don’t actually lactate hops silly goose!).”

Perry, 38, used the viral video to announce that her Las Vegas residency had been extended with 14 more concerts, telling her fans her show’s set list is “a fun [follercoaster] through memory lane going all the way back to 2008.”

Perry seemed unable to control her eye in the video.

The singer repeatedly touched her hand to her temple as her eye ‘glitched’.

 
“This show is a non-stop party about finding unconditional love and strangely (for me) not political at all,” she said.

The pop star further expressed how excited she was to perform again next year.

“Hope to sing along with you in 2023! And we’ll drink, this one’s on me, cause we’re all #chainedtothealgorithm #therealproblemlolhaha,” she concluded.

Earlier this week, fans were shocked and concerned when a video showed her right eye seemingly opening and closing uncontrollably.

“Her clone was glitching. That’s scary,” one person wrote on TikTok, with another writing, “Her robot seems to glitch a lot.”

“That bitch is a robot omg we been knew,” a third added, with someone else joking, “she lost the wifi connection.”

Meanwhile, some surmised that her eyelash glue had made her lids stick together by accident.

Nonetheless, the alarming incident was just part of her act.

The internet was set ablaze by the wild display as she celebrated her 38th birthday with her fiance Orlando Bloom and their 3-year-old daughter Daisy.

“every time i blow a candle out i always wish for you. 38 and grateful ♥️,” she captioned a photo of her family’s hands this week.

Bloom also gushed over Perry in a sweet birthday tribute posted to his Instagram.

“Each time we take a trip around the sun and get to celebrate you, I’m reminded that on this journey together and whatever the weather I’m always smiling,” the Lord of the Rings actor said.

Bloom, 45, and the American Idol judge welcomed their little girl in August 2020 after getting engaged in February the year prior. They dated on and off for three years.
