Katy Perry opens up about daughter Daisy and who she looks like the most
She caught up with Garry Spence recently
Last updated 24th Jan 2022
Katy Perry joined Garry Spence to talk about being a parent with fiancé Orlando Bloom, touring and life as a mum since she welcomed her first daughter Daisy Dove into the world back in August 2020.
Kicking off her Las Vegas residency on 29th December 2021, the singer is set to be performing shows until 19th March 2022. The shows, which are titled Play, see Katy performing as a doll on a huge, upscaled, and totally crazy set.
Chatting with Garry, the mum-of-one opened up about life with her daughter Daisy now that she is performing in Las Vegas. She said: "She is a lot of energy and a rocket! I mean, she is half me and half Orlando, so what do you expect?"
The singer then told Garry: "Today I put her down for her nap before I went to Vegas, and she was fighting it, and she was crying, and she didn't want her binky or her milk!"
She then explained how she comforts little Daisy, revealing: "And then I gave her her blankie - and you know when you give them their blankie and they're like having a fit, but then they smell their blankie and it's hypnotic! It's crazy!"
Garry couldn't help but then joke: "You put them down for a nap and they're like 'no, no, no' - and you're looking as an adult thinking 'I WOULD LOVE TO GO FOR A NAP RIGHT NOW!"
He then laughed: "Naps are wasted on babies!"
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom got engaged back in February 2019 - a delightful surprise for fans on Valentine's Day. Sadly, in 2020 the couple postponed their wedding due to their concerns over COVID-19 restrictions - however it wasn't all bad news, as they welcomed their first daughter Daisy Dove in August of that year.
The singer has been very busy recently, performing shows for her Las Vegas residency and dropping her recent collaboration with Alesso, titled 'When I'm Gone'.
You can hear Garry Spence every weekday from 4pm on Northsound 1.
Check out the best Katy Perry collaborations:
‘Starstrukk’ with 30H!3
After Katy first burst onto the screen with her debut single 'I Kissed A Girl', she was quick to collaborate with one of the biggest bands in 2009, 3OH!3. The song reached number three in the UK charts and catapulted Katy to worldwide fame.
‘ET’ with Kanye West
Juxtaposing with her "poppy" music vibe, Katy collaborated with Kanye West for this hip-hop, R&B style song, a big risk for the singer/songwriter. But it seemed like it paid off as the song went to number one on the Billboard Top 100 charts and became the third best-selling digital song of 2011 in the United States with sales of 4.83 million.
‘Who You Love’ with John Mayer
Back in 2013 when Katy Perry and John Mayer were an item, they released this loved-up track, accompanied with an even more loved-up music video of the pair all over each other. The song achieved success in the US, with John Mayer's fans becoming even more jealous of Katy for taking him off the market...
‘California Gurls' with Snoop Dogg
We mean, who can forget this classic? There's too many positive things to say about this track. Not only does it bring back all the mems, it also features the legend Snoop Dogg. Iconic.
‘Swish Swish’ with Nicki Minaj
Released in 2017, this song gave birth to the "The Floss" dance, after performance guest Russell Horning performed the dance move on Katy's Saturday Night Live set. And let's not forget, it also has Nicki Minaj on the track. Guaranteed success? We think so.
‘365’ with Zedd
Katy Perry and Zedd wrote this song after Zedd supported the singer on her Witness tour. Released in 2019, the song became an instant hit and got stuck in the heads of almost everyone on the planet. True fact... well, maybe not.
‘Chained To The Rhythm’ with Skip Marley
The grandson of Bob Marley (!!) featured on this dancehall classic, performing the song with Katy at the 2017 Grammy and Brit Awards. Sia also co-wrote the song with Katy, as well as providing backing vocals. Wowee.
‘Feels’ with Calvin Harris, Pharrell Williams and Big Sean
Pardon the pun, but this track really did give us all the feels. Four of the biggest artists of 2017 on one track, what's not to like? The song shot straight to number one in the UK, as well as six other countries in Europe.
‘Dark Horse’ with Juicy J
Collaborating with US rapper Juicy J for another banging tune, Katy released 'Dark Horse' in 2013. After releasing the song, Katy revealed she "wrote (the song) from the perspective of a witch warning a man not to fall in love with her." OK then...
'Last Friday Night' with Missy Elliott
T.G.I.F - what we say every Friday but Katy managed to make some money out of it! Interesting fact, the song was first released without Missy Elliott, but once she was added to the track, it shot straight to number one and allegedly boosted the songs sales by 25 per cent.
'Bon Appetit' with Migos
We all remember the video don't we? Where Katy is having food poured all over her body in a kitchen by lots of men dressed up as chefs. Random. But a good song.
‘If We Ever Meet Again’ with Timbaland
A staple in any 21st Century playlist. Enough said.
'When I'm Gone' with Alesso
Katy teamed up with Swedish DJ and producer Alesso to create their song 'When I'm Gone' which came out on 29th December 2021.
The pair premiered the music video at the halftime show at the 2022 College Football Playoff National Championship game in the US on Monday 10th January, and released the official music video on YouTube.
