Katy Perry will be taking over the Super Bowl halftime show REALLY soon, and her PR is working really hard at making sure we’re all super pumped about it and ready to tune in come next Sunday. To that end, so to speak, they’ve put her on the cover of ESPN Magazine with Houstan Texans defensive end J.J. Watt, who have about as much chemistry as the stars of the 50 Shades of Grey movie (and I don’t know if that’s an insult or a compliment).
There wasn’t much to the accompanying interview, but we did find out that Katy is feeling a bit nervous leading up to her big day and that doing the halftime show is better than anything she’s ever dreamt of.
“Honestly? I feel like I’ve outdreamt my dream,” she says. “I don’t get nervous about much, but I’ll definitely be a little tingly inside that day.”
Huh. Perhaps more hilarious is that Katy seems to think she’s on par with Celine Dion when it comes to vocals, since apparently people would stop in their tracks whenever she started singing when growing up.
“Everybody would be going about their business, and then all of a sudden their heads would turn when I would start singing. It was this magic trick that I had. I guess I loved that attention. And I went for it,” she says, laughing. “But when I was singing into a hairbrush, I had no idea the incredible amount of work that would be asked of me in order to be at this level.”
Now, y’all know I love KP – massive fan. And I also think she’s far more talented than people give her credit for. But to say that her voice is so good that one would turn their head when she starts? LOL girl, no. Just no.
I can’t wait to see what she comes up with for the Super Bowl, though. Someone tell me what time the halftime show is on so I can tune in right as it starts (and turn it off as soon as it ends).
BASIC.
