KATY Perry has confirmed an upcoming music tour during a casual conversation with fans.

The confirmation comes after the American Idol alum’s first single from her latest album was blasted by critics.

A video captured Katy, 39, telling a fan that she’s “coming back on tour” when discussing her return to France during Paris Fashion Week.

The Firework singer walked the runway at Place Vendôme in an archival Noir Kei Ninomiya dress at Vogue World: Paris and was recorded meeting with fans after the show.

The soft tour announcement comes after fans dragged her comeback song Woman’s World after a snippet was leaked last week.

A snippet from her new song was shared on social media with Katy dropping a teaser on TikTok soon after.

The mother-of-one was seen mouthing the lyrics, “Sexy, confident. So intelligent. She is heaven-sent. So soft, so strong,” while dancing in a white crochet bikini.

Katy announced that the song would be released on July 11 and teased, “GET READY TO POP OFF.”

Critics were unimpressed with Katy’s newest material, calling it “terrible” and “cringy.”

“The new snippet of Katy Perry’s latest single sounds like an autotuned Real Housewife release so kinda terrible and kinda camp,” one wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

“I was rooting for Katy but these lyrics are so dated it’s giving 2016 Hillary Clinton presidential campaign material. It’s over,” another critic added.

“New Katy Perry snippet is the worst thing I’ve ever heard,” a third person posted.

“I cannot be the only one cringing at the title of the upcoming new Katy Perry song and then hearing the lyrics in the snippet and cringing even harder,” someone else commented.

“I wanted Katy Perry to bring back the fun of One of the Boys and Teenage Dream not the janky purposeful pop of Witness.”

“That Katy Perry song sounds like something they’d come up with for the Rupaul Finale song,” another jabbed.

ROAR!

On Friday, Katy clapped back at critics of Woman’s World by dancing to the new single on Instagram.

The pop music icon shared a post of herself dancing to the track in what appeared to be a clothing store or the dressing room she shares with her fiancé Orlando Bloom, 47.

In the clip, She showed off her figure in a skintight crop top, emblazoned with the words “FEMININE DIVINE.”

The Hot N Cold singer paired the tee with pants slung low on her hips, revealing her toned stomach and her pink panties.

Katy flung herself in front of the camera as her song began playing.

She swung her hips and tousled her long black hair as she lip-synced the lyrics.

The song came to an abrupt end with Katy sassily declaring, “That’s all you get,” as she shrugged and walked away.

She crept back on-screen, joking, “But then I’ve got to come back and push ‘Stop,’” before the video ended.

“IT’S A WOMAN’S WORLD AND YOU’RE LUCKY TO BE LIVING IN IT,” Katy captioned the video, referencing a line from the single.

Katy was a coach alongside Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie in the televised music competition.
