Global superstar Katy Perry is set to release her seventh studio album. The 39-year-old has almost finished the eagerly awaited LP - which will be her first release since 2020's Smile - and the tracks have been described as her "most personal" yet.

Perry is also intending to go on a world tour in support of the record, the first time she has been on the road since 'Witness: The Tour' which ran from 2017 - 2018.

For the past two years, the "California Gurls" hitmaker has been performing her 'Play' Las Vegas concert residency at the Resorts World Theatre. The power-packed set list includes "ET," "Chained to the Rhythm," "Dark Horse," "It’s Not the End of the World," "California Gurls," "Hot N’ Cold/Last Friday Night," "Waking up in Vegas," "Bon Appetit," "Daisies," "I Kissed a Girl," "Lost/Part of Me/Wide Awake," "Swish Swish," "When I’m Gone/Walking on Air!," "Never Really Over," "Teenage Dream," "Smile" and "Roar."

Now, however, Perry is ready to take her songs around the globe to her fans. In August, she hinted during a performance of her Las Vegas residency Play that an album was on the cards. She told the audience in reference to her previous releases: "Now if you can't love me at my Witness or Smile era, then you can't love me at my KP6 era.'

Earlier this year, the singer-songwriter insisted that she had been writing new songs but urged fans to be patient to hear them.

Appearing on "Good Morning America", Perry - who has three-year-old daughter called Daisy with her fiancé, actor Orlando Bloom - said: "I haven't put any new material out since my darling Daisy.

"I think that I'm writing a lot and have written a lot from a place of love, because I'm feeling so much of it - so much unconditional love, that love you never knew existed.

"I'm always writing, I have been, but I think what's really important to me is to be celebrating the world that I've got to build with all of these wonderful songs and to be responsible for a life for a three year old.

"I will be back, but let me get this right."
