Katy Perry [1] brought out all the stops for iHeartRadio's "Can't Cancel Pride" event [2] on Thursday night. The singer and mom-to-be [3] performed an upbeat medley of her hits during the virtual Pride celebration and COVID-19 relief benefit. She began by singing a dance-y remix of her latest track, "Daisies," [4] while laying in a pile of the flowers before transitioning into a mashup of two throwbacks: "I Kissed a Girl" and "Peacock." But she didn't stop there! Katy also squeezed in a few verses of "Walking on Air" and "Swish Swish" before looping back and finishing up with "Daisies."
A few hours before the iHeartRadio event kicked off, Katy teased her performance on Instagram [5] and Twitter, captioning a clip: "Lots of things are being cancelled (rightfully so, trust!) but you #CANTCANCELPRIDE and not only that but you can't cancel dance remixes with some of ya fav songs." Laverne Cox and Elvis Duran hosted the live-streamed celebration, which fundraised for LGBTQ+ organisations like GLAAD, SAGE, National Black Justice Coalition, The Trevor Project, and OutRight Action International.
