Katy Perry rocked a pink polka dot swimsuit this week when she was seen filming American Idol on the beach in Hawaii.

The pop star, 38 – who recently wore a sequined crop top to Jimmy Kimmel Live – covered up in her blush-colored strapless one-piece that featured white polka dots and a matching skirt tied around her waist.

Perry lounged in the shade alongside her fellow judges Luke Bryan, 46, and Lionel Richie, 73, who both looked dapper in casual beachwear.

Katy accessorized her look with white starfish earrings, cat-eye sunglᴀsses and a pineapple beverage.

The three judges were filming season 21 of American Idol at Disney’s Aulani Resort & Spa in Oahu, where they will be joined by celebrity guest mentors Bebe Rexha and Jimmie Allen.

With her raven hair swept up in an elegant bun, the Teenage Dream singer showcased her bare shoulders and décolletage in the strapless design.

Katy kicked back in a beach chair adorned with a striped red-and-blue towel, and she appeared to be enjoying her time in the shade.

The star kept her fair skin out of the sun as she and her fellow judges watched contestants sing for stardom.

Perry, Bryan and Richie were joined by Minnie Mouse at one point, with the Disney icon pulling up a chair next to Lionel.

Ryan Seacrest, 48, was also in attendance, as the American Idol host walked the beach in a tropical shirt and dark blue shorts.

This latest sighting of Perry comes after her fiancée Orlando Bloom, 46, admitted that their relationship can be ‘really challenging’ in a candid new interview with Flaunt Magazine.

While reflecting on their differences, the Pirates of the Caribbean star revealed that his ‘baby mama and life partner’ gets ‘stressed’ about the dangerous side of his job.

‘We definitely battle with our emotions and creativity, [but] I think we’re both aware of how blessed we are to have uniquely connected in the way that we did at the time that we did, and there’s definitely never a dull moment,’ he said.

Bloom went on to tell the publication that maintaining a long-distance relationship with Perry is difficult due to their demanding work schedules, and the fact they inhabit ‘two very different pools’ of entertainment.

‘We’re in two very different pools,’ he explained. ‘Her pool is not a pool that I necessarily understand, and I think my pool is not a pool that she necessarily understands.’

He concluded: ‘Sometimes things are really, really, really challenging. I won’t lie.’

The duo were first romantically linked back in 2016 after meeting at the Golden Globes, and then took a break from being together in March 2017.

‘I had given so much out, and it literally broke me in half. I had broken up with my boyfriend, who is now my baby daddy-to-be,’ she told radio station SiriusXM CBC in 2020.

Ultimately, the I Kissed a Girl songstress credits graтιтude for saving her life and her relationship with God – and less than a year later, she rekindled her relationship with Bloom.

After getting back together, the Chained To The Rhythm singer told Footwear News magazine that Bloom is ‘a great anchor’ in her life, adding: ‘For some reason, I attract people who are really real and call me out on stuff when I’m being cuckoo.’

They became engaged on Valentine’s Day 2019, before going on to welcome their daughter Daisy Dove on August 26, 2020.
