ICC T20 World Cup: Katy Perry to perform at Women’s World Cup Final

Pop superstar Katy Perry will re-ignite her love affair with cricket when she performs at the Women’s T20 World Cup Final at the MCG.

The performance will coincide with the International Women’s Day celebration on Sunday March 8 in what will be the world’s largest women’s cricket match.

Perry will perform before and after the match in what is hoped to be a record crowd at the MCG.

The announcement was made 100 days from the start of the tournament that Australia will host from February 21.

Perry is looking forward to performing at the MCG on a day that means a lot to her personally.

“I’m all about celebrating equality and the achievements of women, which naturally happens on a global scale on International Women’s Day,” Katy Perry said.

“It’s no coincidence that I said yes to performing live at the women’s final on this day.

“I hope to bring a unifying, electric performance playing some of my most empowering songs for the best female cricketers on the planet.”

Perry has quite an extensive history with cricket, having performed at the IPL in 2012.

The performance was particularly memorable for her chemistry with Australian cult figure Doug Bollinger who she appeared on stage with.

The performance actually drew some complaints and an Indian court heard claims of ‘indecency’ against Perry and Bollinger at the time.

Nothing eventuated from the claim, but it left us with some of the best photos of all time.

The CEO of the T20 World Cup Local Organising Committee, Nick Hockley, believes the performance will give the event even more world exposure.

“What better way to celebrate than the T20 World Cup final at the MCG on International Women’s Day and who better to lead that celebration than Katy Perry,” Hockley said.

“We are seeing incredible momentum in the development of cricket as a sport for women and girls.

“ICC Women’s T20 World Cup in Australia is a perfectly timed opportunity to accelerate this change and take the game to new audiences.”

Let’s just hope that Perry gets to perform with our very own Perry, Ellyse, after Australia lift the trophy on March 8.
