Katy Perry’s Latest Single ‘California Gurls’ Comes Out

Katy Perry’s brand new single called “California Gurls” has been released.

The new song  features up-beat tempo which urges music fans to go dancing on the floor.

The cover art has also been launched as well.  Katy was wearing a  blue-wig while she sits under an umbrella in a beach.

It was agreed that the track will be included in Katy’s upcoming third studio album which is still waiting to be titled.  Snoop Dogg will be featured. It was recorded as an answer to Jay-Z’s New York anthem “Empire State of Mind” which features Alicia Keys.

“It’s so great that ‘Empire State of Mind’ is huge and that everyone has the New York song, but what the f**k? What about LA? What about California?” she told Rolling Stone. “It’s been a minute since we had a California song and especially from a girl’s perspective. We took the references of Prince, which is always a great reference, and some of the ’90s, almost house music references.”

The song, which can be seen and heard on Katy Perry’s official site, will be performed at the MuchMusic Video Awards which will also guest Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus. The album is expected to be released later this year.
