The energy was palpable at the MCG as Katy Perry took the stage for her highly anticipated performance at the 2024 AFL Grand Final. Fans of both the Sydney Swans and Brisbane Lions erupted into thunderous cheers as the pop sensation kicked off her set with her hit song, Roar.
With a mischievous grin, Perry addressed the crowd, "Where's all my Swans at?" The cheers grew even louder as she then asked, "And where's all my Lions at?" It was clear that the audience was filled with diehard fans of both teams.
Perry didn't disappoint as she belted out some of her classic hits, including California Gurls and Teenage Dream. But she also treated the crowd to some of her newer material, keeping the energy high and the crowd on their feet.
As if her performance wasn't already enough, Perry surprised everyone by bringing Australian legend Tina Arena to the stage for a duet of I Kissed A Girl. The crowd went wild as the two powerhouse vocalists sang their hearts out.
But it was during her final song, Firework, that Perry truly left her mark on the audience. As the song reached its climax, fireworks were launched into the sky, adding an extra element of excitement and awe to her already spectacular performance.
As she bid farewell to the crowd, Perry pointed into the sky and exclaimed, "Have a great game tonight! I love you, Australia!" It was clear that she had won over the hearts of her Australian audience with her infectious energy and talent.
Perry's entrance on a futuristic vehicle drew comparisons to Angry Anderson's pre-game show in 1991, further solidifying her place as a legendary performer in the AFL Grand Final's history.
Leading up to the performance, there was much speculation about whether Perry would sing her hit song, Roar, on the Aussie stage. Some fans even went as far as claiming that it would give the Brisbane Lions an unfair advantage over the Sydney Swans. But in the end, it was clear that Perry's performance was a celebration of music and unity, rather than a competition between teams.
The excitement only continued to build as the two grand-finalist teams entered the stadium, with cheers and chants filling the air. And before the game kicked off, Australian singer and former competitive swimmer Cody Simpson delivered a beautiful rendition of the national anthem, setting the stage for an unforgettable game.
