Rebecca Black, once known for her viral hit Friday, opened the night with a surprising intensity. Dressed in full camo alongside her dancers, she delivered an emotional, high-energy set that showed just how far she’s come as an artist.

Katy Perry made her entrance in spectacular fashion, rising from the stage inside a sci-fi metal cage and performing midair. Backed by neon lights and cyberpunk visuals, her opening set felt like stepping into a futuristic dream.

From there, Perry powered through her biggest hits — from I Kissed a Girl to Roar and even Peacock (with a cheeky apology to parents in the crowd). Between outfit and stage changes, bringing fans on stage, and even letting the audience vote on songs, Perry kept the show interactive and unpredictable.

The visuals shifted constantly — from cyberpunk grit to fairy garden whimsy, candy-colored pop, and even a sparkly Star Wars-inspired vibe. Just as often as she performed on the ground, she was soaring through the air, keeping the spectacle alive.

The fans matched the energy, turning the arena into a sea of costumes — from dancing sharks to candy-themed outfits. The result was a show with no dull moments, an unrelenting burst of color, music, and energy that proved why Perry remains one of pop’s most captivating performers.
