“Thank you,” she told the cheering crowd, “I did that all on my first day of my period, can you believe it?” (For more moments you may have missed on TV, head on over here).

During her performance, Perry wore a sculpted nude body plate and black underwear bottoms with thigh-high boots. She began the 9-minute production flying through the air while singing her hit “Dark Horse.” The aerial acrobatics continued for several minutes as she raced over her dancers’ heads while singing her out-of-this-world single, “E.T.”

Once on the ground, the “Woman’s World” singer—who shares 4-year-old daughter Daisy Dove with her longtime fiancé Orlando Bloom—kept up her energy, running and sliding across an angled platform as she belted out her hits like “Teenage Dream,” “California Gurls,” “I Kissed a Girl,” “Firework,” and more.

She also debuted some new music off her upcoming album 143, including the racy track, “I’m His, He’s Mine,” featuring Doechii, who joined Perry on stage as the two performers got very close and personal.

She also sang her new track, “Lifetimes,” to close out the performance as the bouncing crowd jumped along with the pop star to the up-tempo song.

The Grammy-nominated performer was introduced by the Pirates of the Caribbean star, who affectionately called her by her birth name, Katherine Hudson. The pair shared a passionate kiss on stage after Perry’s performance, and she thanked him in her speech.

“Thank you to Orlando,” she said, “for keeping me grounded, celebrated, and doing the dishes.”

The cheeky comment was a reference to Perry’s recent Call Her Daddy With Alex Cooper interview, where she shared that acts of service are her love language.

"If I come downstairs and the kitchen is clean, and you've done it all," Perry said on the Sept. 4 episode, "and you've done all the dishes, and you've closed all the pantry doors, you better be ready to get your d--k sucked."
