According to Beatweek magazine, Katy Perry is performing a surprise concert today, June 15, in New York City! Although the time of Perry's concert is unknown, the singer is confirmed to perform on 46th and Broadway. The unexpected show is said to be in celebration of Perry's new video, 'California Girls', debuting tomorrow.

 

Singer-songwriter Katy Perry has gone from internet music sensation to bona fide international star in just two years. Her multi-platinum debut album, "One of the Boys," generated four hit singles: "I Kissed A Girl," "Hot N Cold," "Thinking Of You" and "Waking Up In Vegas." This August, the Grammy-nominated artist will release her next album, "Teenage Dream," which features "California Gurls," the fastest-rising single to Top 10 radio in more than four years.

In addition to selling five million albums worldwide, the Santa Barbara, CA-born Perry has appeared on the covers of dozens of publications, including Seventeen, Cosmopolitan and Glamour. She also served as a guest judge at the auditions on the most recent season of AMERICAN IDOL. Perry was voted Best New Artist in 2008 by readers of Rolling Stone and Best New Act at the 2008 Europe Music Awards. More recently, she was named one of People's "Most Beautiful People," one of Entertainment Weekly's "Entertainers of the Year," one of Esquire's "Women We Love" and No. 1 on Maxim's 2010 "Hot 100" list.
