TAYLOR TO THE RESCUE

It’s the latest headache for the Fireworks singer, who is also dealing with fan backlash for her decision to work with controversial producer Dr. Luke on her 143 album.

But Katy, according to The U.S. Sun’s two well-placed sources, has been speaking to fellow superstar Taylor to try and solve her tour troubles.

One of the insiders says there is “frustration” about a lack of spotlight for the upcoming 83 dates.

Having enjoyed incredible success with her Eras shows, Taylor was targeted as the perfect person to try and help.

He also claims Katy was quizzing the Cruel Summer star about everything from costume design to lights in a desperate quest to make the concerts “remarkable and historical.”

“Katy saw one of Taylor’s shows last year and was excited and inspired by what she saw,” said the source. “She knows she can count on her to give her some positive feedback.”

Another insider, who is close to Taylor’s inner circle, described Katy as a “sponge” who has taken all of the advice on board.

There have, says the source, been long chats about the intricate details of the show – including the importance of storytelling and the way everyone looks on stage.

“Taylor wants Katy to succeed and have a great tour, and enjoy her time while on the road, and Katy appreciates that,” she said.

ENEMIES TO FRIENDS

Katy and Taylor were once embroiled in a bitter, years-long feud.

It all started in 2014, when Taylor accused Katy of trying to “sabotage an entire arena tour” by hiring her back-up dancers.

“Watch out for the Regina George in sheep’s clothing,” Katy shot back, referring to the infamous villain in Mean Girls.

Both dropped diss tracks seemingly about each other, with Taylor’s Bad Blood and Katy’s Swish Swish.

But the fight ended in 2018, when Katy sent Taylor an actual olive branch and handwritten note to make peace.

“It was really unfortunate,” Katy told Ellen DeGeneres of the feud in 2019.

“But we made amends and I’m all about redemption and forgiveness and for setting an example for those younger people that it can be cool to ask for forgiveness and confront someone that you may have an issue with or a problem with and talk it out.”

Taylor sent Katy a baby present before she gave birth to daughter Daisey with husband Orlando Bloom in 2020, and Katy later supported her on-again friend’s Eras tour in Sydney in February 2024.

“Got to see an old friend shine tonight,” Katy wrote on Instagram.
