AFL: The Brisbane Lions have arrived in Melbourne ahead of the Grand Final and are hoping to hear a specific Katy Perry song.
Katy Perry is getting embroiled in more controversy than she ever could have expected in the build-up to her AFL grand final appearance on Saturday.
It is a significant coup for the AFL, which has a highly checkered history of singing acts for the big game.For every Robbie Williams, there seems to be a Meatloaf thrown in to spoil the footy party. While Perry seemed a safe, hugely popular choice for the game, which will be contested between the Sydney Swans and Brisbane Lions, she has found herself tied up in controversy this week.Firstly her rehearsals at the ground will limit the Lions to only one training session at the MCG, when they were hoping for an extra run on Thursday.
“It’s one of Katy Perry’s best songs and highest selling, but there’s a vicious rumour … Katy Perry couldn’t sing her famous track Roar because it would unfairly support the Brisbane Lions in their quest for another grand final victory,” he said.Now, in an interview that will be aired on Thursday morning, Perry spoke to Melbourne breakfast radio show,“Oh, the Lions! I have to cut my song “Roar” out of the set because it’s not fair.”“You need to play it,” Fevola replied.
Perry also spoke about a rumour an Australian female icon would join her on stage and Fevola was convinced it will be Tina Arena.
