Katy Perry Struggles Through ‘Let’s Dance’ Performance

Written by Trent | Filed under Katy Perry

Katy Perry fights for air on 'Let's Dance for Sport Relief'.

Katy Perry hit the stage on the UK’s ‘Let’s Dance for Sport Relief’ yesterday but her performance was definitely not soothing. Indeed, the husky-voiced singer performed her new single, ‘Part of Me’, on the show and found herself gasping for air.

‘Part of Me’ is the lead single from Perry’s upcoming ‘Teenage Dream: The Complete Confection’ rerelease. The album will arrive in US and UK stores on the same day – March 26th.

Watch Perry’s ‘Let’s Dance’ performance below:

Perry deserves to be acknowledged for the choreography in this performance but her vocals were a travesty. She could barely breathe while standing still and things only got worse when she started dancing.

Poor breath control has always been Perry’s biggest problem and the situation has yet to improve. I suggest that she practices singing while running to build stamina. If not, then Perry could always try another viable option: be quiet.

   This performance was nice. There was very little struggle in her voice. Plus she really was not dancing all that hard to have issues with her voice. Dance moves were very minimal. Maybe you were watching a different performance!

   She is always out of breathe or sounds like she’s choking on a dick.

   Not a great performance. She doesnt have the stamina to jump around, dance and sing at the same time. She’s progressing tho

   Really? I watched the whole thing waiting for the girl to crack and it never happened, she sounded out of breath at times but definitely not enough to deserve a blog post. At the end of the day I appreciate an artist that actually sings considering thats rare nowadays so if anything she deserves a round of applause

   This post was unnecessary. She did good minus a few spots.

   Her voice sounds the same to me. Maybe it’s her fast, very audible vibrato that made her sound out of breath? this vocal wasn’t any different than any of her others, she always belts out her songs.
