Katy Perry coming to Sunrise this month

Seven's breakfast show Sunrise has announced singer Katy Perry will take over Brekky Central later this month during an Australian promo tour.

As reported by Mediaweek, Perry has just attended a special Nova Red Room Global Tour event in Los Angeles this week hosted by Nova's Smallzy.

Perry's new album "Witness" is available from today.

The pop superstar is a longtime friend of Sunrise, and she tried her hand at presenting weather during her last visit in 2014.

On her June 2017 visit, Perry is swapping the stage for the television studio, and she will co-host the Seven program alongside Kochie and Sam.

Perry’s visit to Brekky Central follows a string of international superstar guests, most recently Tom Cruise and Ed Sheeran

Sunrise executive producer Michael Pell said: “Katy Perry has a proud history with Sunrise. She’s done almost everything there is to do on the show. Everything except co-hosting it. We can’t wait to see what she brings this time.

“Katy’s like an old friend, it’s great to welcome her back. She’s the biggest pop star in the world right now so of course I’d give up my seat to have her co-host the show!”
