What Katy Said About Their Love
At the Tribeca Film Festival, Perry told the moderator:
"I am very in love… Actually, that show was after I met the love of my life, and so I felt very anchored by that because I’m a little bit like a rainbow kite. I fly super high and like, you know, touch the veil, cosmos, and sometimes I need to be anchored. So, to have that anchor finally makes me feel really whole now."
