Katy Perry Suffers Wardrobe Malfunction, Bra Snaps Off During Live Show
Last Updated:
Katy Perry handled a wardrobe malfunction professionally during her Las Vegas show on May 17. Despite the mishap, she continued performing seamlessly.
American singer Katy Perry handled a wardrobe malfunction during her Las Vegas live performance on May 17 with the utmost professionalism. The Harleys In Hawaii singer is currently on tour for her seventh studio album, 143.
The incident occurred while she was performing her 2010 hit, Part of Me, at the T-Mobile Arena. In a video going viral, Perry was seen running across the stage when the clasp of her bejewelled bra broke. Despite the mishap, the pop star remained composed and continued her performance with the same zeal.
'Oh, sh**, my bra's going to come off," Perry joked to the crowd as her band continued with an instrumental break. She navigated through her stilt-walking backup dancers, maintaining high energy despite the malfunction. At one point, she called out to her assistant, Patrick, asking him to 'put her bra back on." However, she danced through the moment, flaunting the flapping straps of the malfunctioning costume piece.
Showing the confidence gained from over 15 years in the pop industry, Perry seamlessly resumed her choreography once her bra was secured, starting from where she had left – the chorus of Part of Me.
Katy Perry is no stranger to wardrobe malfunctions
During the filming of American Idol last year, the Hot N Cold singer experienced a significant wardrobe issue, causing her to duck under the judges' table and cover herself with a pillow. In one Instagram video, she joked, 'I need my top to stay on. If it's not fixed, this show is going to get more than it wanted."
Since April, Katy Perry has been on the road for her seventh studio album, embarking on The Lifetimes Tour—named after its lead single. The tour started in Mexico City and is set to span the United States, Canada, South America, and Europe, with short stops in China and the United Arab Emirates. It is scheduled to wrap up in December.

Ranthambore Tigress Arrowhead Dies At 14. Watch Her Last Walk
Last Updated: A heartfelt Instagram post by a wildlife photographer featured a video capturing the final walk of Arrowhead, the beloved tigress of Ranthambore. Arrowhead, the tigress who once dominated the core of Rajasthan's Ranthambore, has passed away at the age of 14. A touching video shared by a wildlife photographer captures her final moments, offering a glimpse into her last few hours. According to NDTV, Tigress Arrowhead (T-84), a favourite among wildlife enthusiasts and Ranthambore visitors, died earlier this week. Her death occurred just hours after her daughter was moved to another tiger reserve. The news of Arrowhead's death has deeply saddened wildlife photographers, forest staff, and frequent safari visitors. One of them, nature photographer Sachin Rai, had been following her story since she was a cub. In a heartfelt Instagram post, Rai shared a video of what he described as her 'last walk," recorded near Padam Talab on June 17. In his post, Rai recalled witnessing Arrowhead's final moments on the evening of June 17. 'On the evening of June 17th, I witnessed what would likely be the last walk of the legendary tigress Arrowhead. It was heartbreaking to see her struggle, attempting to rise and take a few feeble steps before collapsing again," he wrote in his lengthy post. He described how Arrowhead, weakened by illness, moved with great difficulty, barely managing a few steps before resting beneath a tree. 'Each movement was a visible effort. In that quiet moment, I knew in my heart that the end was near," he added. But Rai's tribute extended beyond those last moments. He looked back on her remarkable journey—from a young cub to a dominant tigress who once claimed the very lands her mother ruled. 'I have followed Arrowhead's journey since she was a tiny cub. From those early days to watching her grow into a powerful tigress, every chapter of her life was a testament to resilience," he also explained. Posted on June 19, the video has garnered over 6.3 million views, drawing an outpouring of love and grief from social media users who were moved by Arrowhead's final moments. A user said, 'Heartbreaking to see a tiger like this." Another wrote, 'So graceful and resilient. Even in these last few moments. A symbol of strength." 'A wonderful legacy, but my heart breaks to see this queen in pain. She is now at peace," a user wrote on Instagram. 'May the queen find the eternal rest she deserves," an individual commented. Who was Arrowhead? Arrowhead came from Ranthambore's famed tiger lineage, being the daughter of Krishna (T-19) and the granddaughter of the iconic tigress Machhli (T-16). Known to many as the 'Queen of Ranthambore', she held a special place in the hearts of wildlife lovers. Forest officials reportedly revealed that she had been suffering from advanced bone cancer and was being closely monitored during her final weeks.

Celebration of global harmony
In a world more interconnected than ever, music has become a universal language transcending geography and culture. What was once seen as niche or regional, now resonates with global audiences in real-time. Artistes across continents are embracing this fluidity, collaborating in bold, genre-defying ways, from Afrobeat-meets-K-pop anthems to Carnatic melodies flowing into jazz improvisations. These collaborations are no longer just artistic experiments; they are cultural dialogues. Thanks to streaming platforms and social media, the global music landscape has flattened. Influences cross-pollinate organically, allowing diverse sounds to merge and evolve. These partnerships do more than just boost chart positions, they open listeners to new worlds of rhythm, tradition, and identity. Our own Carnatic music, once reserved for sabhas and concert halls, is now finding a stage at global jazz festivals. Artistes like Ranjani-Gayatri and saxophonist Rudresh Mahanthappa are proving how ragas can converse fluently with blue notes and swing rhythms. American jazz musicians, in turn, are collaborating with mridangam players and veena artistes, creating new harmonic frontiers. This is not fusion for fusion's sake. It's a deep, intentional exploration. Jazz's improvisational core aligns beautifully with Carnatic music's manodharma, its emphasis on creative expression. The tabla steps in for the snare, the tanpura hums in place of the bass line, and together they conjure a sound that feels both ancient and avant-garde. Technology, too, is a vital player in this cross-cultural symphony. Digital audio workstations, cloud-based production, and platforms like YouTube and SoundCloud have democratised creation and collaboration. Just as significant is the global diaspora, artistes of Indian, African, or Latin American origin, living abroad, who act as cultural conduits between their heritage and the contemporary sounds of their adopted homes. As political boundaries tighten, musical ones continue to dissolve. Young listeners, guided by curiosity and free of cultural bias, are fuelling the demand for these genre-fluid, borderless sounds. This World Music Day (June 21), CE speaks to eminent singers who have embraced this global rhythm.
