2024 MTV VMAs: Katy Perry Shares TMI Confession During Video Vanguard Award Speech
Katy Perry knows to rock a stage unconditionally.
After all, the singer wowed at the 2024 MTV VMAs—hosted by Megan Thee Stallion—on Sept. 11, giving an impressive high-flying performance featuring a medley of many of her chart-topping hits. And the 39-year-old shared an unexpected secret about the performance with her fans in the first line of her Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award acceptance speech.
“Thank you,” she told the cheering crowd, “I did that all on my first day of my period, can you believe it?” (For more moments you may have missed on TV, head on over here).
During her performance, Perry wore a sculpted nude body plate and black underwear bottoms with thigh-high boots. She began the 9-minute production flying through the air while singing her hit “Dark Horse.” The aerial acrobatics continued for several minutes as she raced over her dancers’ heads while singing her out-of-this-world single, “E.T.”
Once on the ground, the “Woman’s World” singer—who shares 4-year-old daughter Daisy Dove with her longtime fiancé Orlando Bloom—kept up her energy, running and sliding across an angled platform as she belted out her hits like “Teenage Dream,” “California Gurls,” “I Kissed a Girl,” “Firework,” and more.
