Footage from Katy Perry's recent tour opener in Mexico City is going viral, but not for the reason you'd think. The singer, who recently made headlines for her Blue Origin space flight on April 14, is now trending for what some are calling lackluster choreography and a low-energy performance.
Clips shared widely across social media platforms shows Perry performing robotic dance moves while wearing a futuristic cone bra costume. The concert, which included moments where she made exaggerated facial expressions and performed robot-like movements, was met with ridicule online.
Fans took to TikTok to express their opinions, "I feel like she's really in her flop era," said user phoebe_parson21. "She's still thinking she is an astronaut," said user JillDenlea.
An X post reacting to Perry's performance, that has gathered 10.5 million views and 50 thousand likes, is simply captioned with question marks.

Despite the backlash received for her 11-minute flight to space, Perry seems to embrace an intergalactic theme throughout the concert. At one point she is seen flying above the stage in a metallic spacesuit, at other times wielding a red lightsaber. Theatrical elements that have done little to distract from the choreography critiques.
While the tour's choreographer Kaylie Yee and creative direction company Squared Division haven't made an official comment, some loyal fans have defended the singer, insisting that Perry's quirky performance style is part of her established artistic persona.
The "Lifetimes" tour, which began Wednesday in Mexico City, continues Perry's return to the spotlight after her recent ventures beyond the music world.
