Even Katy Perry’s Mom Fell for Viral AI Photos of Her at the 2024 Met Gala – E! Online

While the “Firework” singer didn’t reveal why she missed the Met Gala this year, she did post a snippet of herself in the recording studio. Although, it’s unclear when the footage was taken.

As for why fans anticipated Katy’s arrival at the annual fashion event? Well, Katy is a staple at the Met Gala. After all, she’s attended eight times throughout the years. Plus, she hinted that she was free on May 6.

“There’s no Idol on Monday,” she told Extra last week about possibly going to the Met Ball. “There’s only Idol next Sunday. This is our last double show…you’ll just have to see if I’m going or if I’m not.”
