Pop star Katy Perry (39) confirms this in an interview with talk show host Jimmy Kimmel (56).
– I think this will probably be my last season with Idol. I love the program very much, says Perry, according to People.
According to Perry, the program’s other judges, Luke Bryan (47) and Lionel Richie (74), are aware that she has plans for 2024. They have seen that she has been in the studio to record new music.
– They understand that something is going on. I’m so happy for them, Perry said of his colleagues.

Perry has been a judge on “American Idol” since 2018, when the talent show was revived by ABC after 15 seasons on Fox.
– I love the show so much, but I want to travel and see the world and maybe come out with some new music.
According to Perry, she has several projects underway in 2024, including new music.
Last year it became known that she is selling her music catalog for NOK 2.4 billion. The newly launched Litmus Music confirms this to media such as Billboard and Variety.
The deal involved Perry selling her share of the publishing rights and original recordings to the songs on all five albums she has released since 2008 until the last one in 2020 – “One of the Boys”, “Teenage Dream”, “Prism », «Witness» and «Smile».
