Extra-terrestrial moment! Katy Perry gets STUCK mid-air on Saturn platform during Nashville concert

Katy Perry’s love of outlandish, elaborate stage props backfired Wednesday at her Nashville concert when she got stuck mid-air on a Saturn-shaped platform on wires.
The pop diva – turning 33 next Wednesday – had just finished singing Thinking of You with an acoustic guitar while clad in a crystal-covered gown and wig.
‘This is the first time I’ve been stuck in space,’ the 13-time Grammy nominee awkwardly joked in fan-shot videos.

‘I know I’m kind of a space cadet, but actually, this thing is stuck. What should I do? Should I tell some jokes, should I tell some stories, should I just sing another song? You’d better put your phones up, it’s a YouTube moment!’
Perry (born Katheryn Hudson) – who had in-ear monitor – candidly revealed how her team were making a ‘whole big deal’ of the technical difficulty.
‘This is not how the show is [supposed to be] going, and you love it,’ Katy told the amused audience in the Bridgestone Arena.
When the planet rig eventually began it’s slow descent, the Roulette singer realized she’d have to stagedive to get off of it otherwise it would crush the Tennessee crowd.

‘I guess I’m just going to have to get down and walk amongst my people,’ the CoverGirl brand ambassador sighed.
‘This is what you get for trying to bring out all of space to Nashville!’
At that, Perry leaped into the roaring mosh pit before a minder escorted her safely back to the stage.
The Bon Appétit belter later tweeted: ‘SMASHVILLE aka Nashville u were an INCREDIBLE time tonight! Thanks for teaching me how 2write a real song & sticking by me all these years!’
