Katy Perry’s Top Broke on the Show, and Some Viewers Got Mad With Her

During a contestant’s performance on American IdolKaty Perry‘s silver sculptural crop top became unfastened at the back. The moment went viral, however, some people got angry by this situation.

Katy Perry had to quickly take cover when she experienced a wardrobe malfunction live on American Idol.

The 39-year-old took refuge behind her desk when a large piece of her top broke off during Roman Collins’ performance. Host Ryan Seacrest humorously warned, “Katy, don’t cut yourself!”

Katy was wearing a metallic outfit with sharp edges at the time. In response to the incident, she exclaimed, “I need my top to stay on! If it’s not fixed, this show is going to get more than it wanted.”

Thankfully, with some assistance from the show’s production team, Katy was able to compose herself after initially shielding her modesty with a cushion. After Roman sang “It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World” by James Brown, she humorously commented, “That song… um… broke my top off… I guess it is a woman’s world!”

Her fellow judge Luke Bryan chimed in, “Ratings, ratings, ratings! Here come the ratings!” Katy quipped, “It’s a family show!”

Luke then praised Roman, “You literally have the ability to blow the roof off the place.” Adding to the humor, Katy remarked, “Or a top!”

Several commenters on Perry’s Instagram expressed annoyance about the incident, attributing it to the impractical outfit she chose to wear.

“Maybe don’t wear a ship anchor to a TV show,” one commenter suggested.

“Maybe try wearing proper clothes rather than dressing as the tin man!?” another recommended.

“Ahhh, the joys of wearing stupid clothes,” remarked another.

Recently Katy made another headline with her fashion choice. The star wore a revealing outfit that showcased her new lower back ’tattoo’.

Before she passed away, Grandma asked me to clean the photo on her headstone a year after her death — when I finally did, I was amazed by what I discovered

This story is deeply moving—a beautiful portrayal of love, family, and the powerful choice that defines our bonds. Grandma Patty’s gentle yet profound way of teaching life’s lessons, through simple, magical moments like their sidewalk adventures or cookie-baking sessions, builds such a vivid picture of her warmth and wisdom. Her final message, hidden behind the headstone photo, feels like the ultimate act of love—a treasure hunt to pass down the legacy of chosen family and intentional love.

The reveal of the adoption adds layers to her love story with Hailey and Elizabeth, showing that family isn’t merely formed by blood but by a thousand moments of choosing each other. Grandma Patty’s line about real love never ending but simply changing shape resonates perfectly with the story’s theme, giving Hailey and her mother both a final gift of clarity and belonging.

The cardinal as a symbol of her spirit and presence is such a beautiful touch, too, tying together memory, loss, and a sense of Grandma’s lasting presence. And through it all, the rituals and phrases they continue in her memory underscore the depth of her influence, even after her passing. The piece overall is such a tender, profound exploration of legacy, grief, and love that goes beyond life itself.
