With the release of her 3D concert-doc film ‘Katy Perry: Part Of Me‘ just around the corner, to coincide with the 4th of July weekend, Katy Perry shows her patriotic side on the cover of the latest issue of Parade magazine.
Lensed by Matt Jones, the 27-year-old songbird dons a blue ensemble and tops her curly two-toned mop with an American flag print hat.
The ‘Wide Awake‘ singer explains to the magazine why her breakup with husband Russell Brand needed to be acknowledged in the film.
“I think if people walked out of the theater and that was completely avoided, they would be like, ‘Well, there’s an elephant in the room that’s still there.’ I like to go out there looking like a strong woman, because I am strong. But I am also a woman who goes through all kinds of problems and highs and lows. I wanted to show the complete spectrum”, Katy points out to Parade.
