Katy Perry may love you for lifetimes, but does the Lifetimes Tour love her? Each stop on her 2025 world tour is becoming more and more like a haunted house, ready to attack its inhabitant at any given moment. Since the tour began in April, several of the “Firework” singer’s over-the-top set pieces and lifts have malfunctioned, including one hanging above the audience. Perry’s been to space, so nothing fazes her, but how much more can the Lifetimes Tour take? Below, all the times Perry was in peril.
She almost fell from a cage.
While Perry was in the air inside a circular metal cage during a performance at Australia’s Adelaide Entertainment Center on June 29, the prop tipped to the side. Perry held herself back from falling by grabbing onto a side of the sphere, as seen in social media videos, and the music continued to play. Then crew members made their way over and righted the cage’s orientation, keeping Perry safe.
She almost fell from a butterfly.
The first tipping didn’t stop her from getting into the sky. While the singer was riding on a gigantic butterfly prop in San Francisco on July 18, the tech malfunctioned, dropping down and to the side, which almost jolted Perry into the audience as she sang “Roar.” Perry paused singing for just a moment, then continued on. In video of the incident, she looks shaken for about four seconds.

Perry knelt beside her as the crowd chanted her name. Then, the singer led a prayer, saying, “Dear God, we pray for McKenna, that she will come back fully and brighter and better than ever. Amen.” Next, can someone please pray for Katy Perry?
She got an electric shock?
Perry appears to jerk uncontrollably while being lifted into the sky in footage posted after her Raleigh, North Carolina, performance on August 17. While the internet claims it’s an electric shock, Perry herself hasn’t confirmed what happened. In the footage, she is seen randomly lurching, seemingly not of her own volition. It’s a little bit like jolting as you fall asleep because you imagined falling down stairs. Please, Katy Perry, stay on the ground …
