Katy Perry has announced her sixth album, "143," will be out on September 20. She shared this news on social media and revealed she will also headline the Rock in Rio festival the same day. This will be her first performance at the festival since 2015.

On Wednesday, July 10, Katy Perry announced her new album, called "143". She shared the news on her social media, revealing the album's name, cover art, and release date, which is September 20.

Perry wanted to create a fun and joyous dance-pop album, with the theme of love, inspired by the 143 pager code, meaning "I love you."

On the same day her new album drops, Perry will headline a sold-out show at the Rock in Rio festival in Brazil. This will be her first time at the Rio de Janeiro event since 2015.
Katy Perry's bold comeback
A press release reveals that Perry's upcoming album is a bold comeback for the artist, who has been hinting at a new pop era for months.

The pop star last released her fifth studio album, "Smile," in 2020 and has been eager to share new songs since. While performing at her Las Vegas Residency, PLAY, in August 2023, Perry hinted fans would enjoy her "KP6 era," referring to her much-anticipated sixth album.

On July 11, Perry kicked off her new album by releasing the debut single, "Woman's World." This song is praised as an empowering anthem for women. Since announcing the single on June 17, she has kept fans excited with teasers and clips on Instagram.

A week earlier, on July 4, Perry promoted the single in a fun Instagram post. She shared a festive photo of herself in a glittery star-shaped swimsuit, showing off stars and stripes to honor her 2010 hit.

Fans of Perry’s music have more to celebrate as she recently left her job as a judge on American Idol, a role she had for seven seasons. She made this announcement in February on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, suggesting it might be her last time on Idol.

During the show, Perry also gave a preview of her new album, promising an exciting year ahead for pop lovers.

All fandoms, invited. And it's high energy, lots of love, mostly lots of love and BPM, summer, sexy. And it's for y'all.
