Katy Perry asks Taylor Swift for ‘advice and support’ after disappointing tour ticket sales

Katy Perry asks Taylor Swift for ‘advice and support’ after disappointing tour ticket sales

Katy Perry is seeking out ‘advice and support’ from longtime on-and-off friend Taylor Swift for her own upcoming Lifelines tour.

After abysmal ticket sales, Perry, 40, turned to Swift, 35, and asked her for help since her Eras Tour was a record-breaking smash hit.

Meanwhile, thousands of tickets remain unsold for her upcoming tour dates, per The US Sun.

The pair are on-again friends after ending their past, years-long feud that was highlighted in Taylor’s song Bad Blood.

This comes as the H๏τ N Cold hitmaker faces backlash for continuing to work with the controversial producer Dr. Luke on her 143 album in spite of the troubling accusations Kesha had against him. 

Sources told the outlet that Perry — who is planning on going to space in one of Jeff Bezos’ rockets — is now turning to Swift for help because she is ‘frustrated’ about the lack of attention and ticket sales for her 83 tour dates.

The source claimed Perry has been asking Swift about everything from costume design to lighting to make her Lifelines concert tour ‘remarkable and historical.’ 

‘Katy saw one of Taylor’s shows last year and was excited and inspired by what she said,’ the insider said. ‘She knows she can count on her to give her some positive feedback.’ 

Another source close to Swift described Perry as a ‘sponge’ for the way she has been listening to and taking all of the fellow singer’s advice. 

The insider also claimed that the two stars have been having long chats about the intricate details of her show. 

Swift reportedly emphasized the importance of storytelling and the way everyone looks on stage in her conversations with Perry. 

‘Taylor wants Katy to succeed and have a great tour, and enjoy her time while on the road, and Katy appreciates that,’ the source added. 

This comes after they rekindled their friendship after a years-long feud. 

Perry and Swift’s friendship turned sour over a decade ago when Swift accused Perry of trying to ‘sabotage an entire arena tour’ by hiring her back-up dancers in 2014.

Following the beginning of their bitter feud, the pair both dropped diss tracks seemingly directed at each other when Swift dropped Bad Blood that same year and Perry released Swish Swish in 2017. 

Their beef ended that following year when Perry sent Swift an actual olive branch and a handwritten note in an effort to make peace. 

In 2019, Perry opened up about their feud and called it ‘really unfortunate.’ 

‘We made amends and I’m all about redemption and forgiveness and for setting an example for those younger people that it can be cool to ask for forgiveness and confront someone that you may have an issue with or a problem with and talk it out,’ she told Ellen DeGeneres on her show.
