Her baby pink manicured nails were short and natural-looking, and she let her lengthy raven locks down with one side cascading over her in waves.

She Was Recently Under Fire For Her 'Harsh' Comments On The Show
Katy joined "American Idol" as a judge in 2018 during season 16, which marked the first time the show aired on ABC after over 15 years on Fox.
However, earlier in the month, she recently faced backlash for her seemingly harsh comments as a judge on the show while she was away performing at the coronation of British monarch King Charles.
At the time, she was temporarily replaced by Morissette, whom fans say should take over from Perry for the next season.
One fan commented, "Your comments were unselfishly intended to benefit the contestants, unlike those of other judges @LionelRichie & @katyperry could certainly take a lesson from you."
Another fan said, "You are, and we're soo awesome on A. I., Not that I don't like Katie. But if she quits, I wish you would be the next judge. Your music was strong for me back then as it is now."
