Katy Perry recently struck gold as far as her career is concerned, as she landed a gig playing at the Super Bowl half-time show. And it seems that she’s taking things quite seriously, and is planning to make this her most serious performance so far, as she’s prepared to do everything in her power to ensure that her fans are going to remember this.
It seems that her plans involve getting a little help from fellow artists as well, as she has announced that she would like to perform a duet with Pharrell Williams at the event. The singer is reportedly already in the process of heavily preparing for her performance including rehearsing her songs and organizing the choreography, which will reportedly include some serious performance. In addition, Katy Perry is also reportedly planning to use some interesting costumes for her appearance, with some alleged reports from behind the scenes comparing her to Lady Gaga’s extravagant style, with regards to what she’s trying to achieve.
Inside reports also claim that Katy Perry is more excited about her upcoming duet than she’s letting on, as she’s convinced that this is the winning ingredient to her success, and that a performance like this is guaranteed to ensure that her fans – and critics – will be talking about this for quite a long time.
There has been no response from Pharrell so far, although it’s reported that Katy Perry’s people are already setting things up and in the middle of negotiations behind the scene, so things might work out in the end. Pharrell’s opinion, according to reports, is that he’s tempted to join the performance but he wants to be sure of its impact on his career development and the way his fans perceive him, especially with regards to his overall branding and commitment. Still, Pharrell is aware of the obvious fact that this will be a huge boost to his own popularity and career development, so it would make sense for him to give the green light.
This is a rare opportunity for artists to truly shine and get the ultimate promotion for their work, as most industry experts treat the Super Bowl as the ultimate show for boosting one’s career, as many artists have successfully used their performance at the event to see a huge rise in their popularity. It’s pretty much a universal rule that an appearance in front of the Super Bowl crowd is guaranteed to bring great success to a singer, although there are of course other factors into play, some of which might understandably make someone in Pharrell’s position more reluctant to just join in right away.
