Katy Perry reveals unusual night activity to help ‘beat jet lag’ after landing in Sydney ahead of month-long Australian tour

Katy Perry has officially touched down in Sydney and isn’t letting the jet lag stop her from seeing the sights.

The I Kissed A Girl hitmaker, who is bringing her Lifetimes Tour to stadiums across Australia this June, posted a video on Instagram showing her feeding a tiger at Sydney Zoo in the middle of the night.

In the clip, the 40-year-old sported a brown shirt and matching brown hat as she balanced a piece of steak on her hand and pushed it against the chain-link fence. 

‘Oh my gosh I’ve never had a tiger lick my hand,’ she said as she fed the large cat.

‘Great way to beat jet lag,’ she could be heard saying, before revealing she had just come off a 14-hour flight.

The popstar is set to perform three shows in Sydney, bringing all of her iconic hits as well as some of her new tracks from her latest album 143, to Qudos Bank Arena on June 4, 9 and 10.

Tickets to the pop icon’s tour, which has received an onslaught of criticism over the last few months, have been in high demand, with the Roar hitmaker announcing two extra shows on the Australian run to accommodate all of her fans.

Taking to Instagram in February, Katy revealed that she added an extra show at Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena on June 4 to kick off the Australian leg, as well as an extra Melbourne show at Rod Laver Arena on June 7.

The Grammy-nominated superstar revealed that she had been humbled with the success of her Australian tour, with all previous dates now sold out.

Captioning the announcement, Katy said: ‘I am so blown away by the incredible demand for THE LIFETIMES TOUR that I will be adding a final show in Sydney and a final show in Melbourne to make sure all my Australian fans have a chance to experience the incredible show I am bringing.’

Katy will now play a hefty 15 Australian shows.

The pop star announced the Australian Lifetimes tour just prior to her turn at the AFL Grand Final in September.

The original run included just one show each for Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth, however fan demand dictated Katy needed to add two extra Sydney and Brisbane shows.

‘I heard you loud and clear Adelaide, I got you!’ Katy wrote on Instagram.

Extra shows were also added to Melbourne and Perth as demand for the Teenage Dream hitmaker continued to rise.
