She gets "hearts racing."
It's Katy Perry's "teenage dream," and we're all just living in it. On Monday, the “California Gurls” singer kicked off the week by posing on a mansion’s balcony in a tiny orange string bikini – and it felt like it was the summer of 2010 all over again. Perry threw it back to her “Teenage Dream” era by playing her throwback single as she playfully struck a pose in the bright clementine two-piece.
In separate posts shared to Instagram and TikTok, the former American Idol judge got “hearts racing” in the neon halter-style swimsuit, which she matched with sky-high strappy orange heels and glam mirrored aviator sunglasses that looked like they were from the Y2K era. In the first shot of her Instagram carousel, which showed Perry hanging out on the balcony of a white French Riviera-esque manor, the star posed with her leg straight up. In one hand, she held a can from her non-alcoholic De Soi beverage brand that she co-owns with Morgan McLachlan.
The singer, who appeared to be shooting something for her company, could be seen shimmying for the camera while sipping on the drink in another video. Later, the “Last Friday Night” star headed down from the balcony and gave fans a closer look at her Aperol Spritz-inspired bikini, as well as a sheer sequined cover-up with a plunging neckline that she wore on top.
As Perry posed on the steps of the mansion in the shimmering outfit, she showed off her full beat—a matte peach lip, coral blush, and bold dark lashes–and styled her black tresses in beachy waves worn over one shoulder with a deep side part.
“I’ma get ur 🧡 racing,” she captioned BTS video clips that she shared on TikTok as her hit track “Teenage Dream” playing in the background.
