Maintaining such a flawless figure and radiant beauty at 39 is no small feat, and Perry has dedicated considerable effort to staying in shape and preserving her youthful glow.
She embraces a healthy lifestyle, a departure from her childhood indifference to nutrition, grounded in the philosophy that health is paramount. "If I can't get on the stage and do it, I disappoint so many people," Perry reflected, emphasizing the importance of health in her ability to perform and enchant audiences worldwide.

Perry's regimen includes a fondness for apple cider vinegar (ACV), a habit shared with her partner Orlando Bloom, which was humorously revealed on their first date. Perry prioritizes hydration upon waking, often starting her day with water, sometimes enhanced with LMNT hydration salts or apple cider vinegar.

Depending on her schedule, especially when preparing for tours or residencies, she consumes three to five light meals daily. She focuses on consuming balanced meals, incorporating brothy soups, fresh-pressed juices, quinoa, grilled chicken, asparagus, and coconut water into her diet.
Besides her consumption, she also exercises regularly. Perry does high-intensity workouts five days a week, including lunges and hip thrusts. Previously, Perry shared a glimpse of her plyometrics workout on Instagram.

To destress, Perry turns to hot yoga, finding relief from depression and anxiety through the practice. She praises CorePower Yoga for its consistency and convenience during her travels.
Moreover, she practices transcendental meditation daily, crediting it with clearing her mind and sparking creative ideas. "I always start my morning out with a mantra of gratitude, even if I'm in a cranky mood because I didn't get enough sleep," she said.
This holistic approach to wellness, combining physical exercise with mental and emotional care, has been a cornerstone of Perry's health strategy for over a decade.
Since becoming a mom in 2020, Perry admits that time management has shifted her priorities, allocating any extra moments to being present for her daughter, Daisy Dove. "I wanna give any extra moments I have to being present and being a mother," she noted.
While exercise occasionally takes a backseat, Perry has found balance with De Soi, a brand she co-founded, offering sophisticated, non-alcoholic beverages crafted with botanicals and adaptogens.
Katy Perry's final show of her Las Vegas residency in November 2023 offered her fans an exceedingly rare and heartwarming sight - the public debut of her daughter, Daisy, now three years old.
The little girl, dressed in a charming red and white polka-dot dress with protective headphones, was captured in footage watching her mother perform, a moment that deeply touched Perry's audience.
During the performance, Perry expressed her love for Daisy, calling her Perry's best friend and dedicating a song to her, a gesture that showcased the deep bond between the two.
This rare appearance sparked a wave of adoration from Perry's fans, with many commenting on Daisy's cuteness and beauty.
Despite Perry and her partner Orlando Bloom's tendency to keep Daisy away from the public eye, this moment gave fans a glimpse into Perry's life as a doting mother. The pop icon has often shared her feelings about motherhood, describing it as the best decision she's ever made and a role that has brought new perspectives and joy into her life.
Speaking on Mother's Day in 2022, Perry shared her delight in seeing the world anew through her daughter's eyes, experiencing a rebirth of sorts alongside her.
Perry has been open about the changes motherhood has brought, especially in prioritizing her daughter's happiness and well-being over personal concerns like post-partum weight loss.
She views Daisy as a delightful blend of her parents' traits, saying, "Daisy is great...we are fearless with lots of chutzpah and just big characters. So the combination of us both is definitely coming out." This encapsulates Perry's journey into motherhood - a transformation filled with love, dedication, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Celebrated pop icon Katy Perry recently set the internet ablaze with her appearance at the Billboard Women in Music event. Donning a striking red two-piece ensemble that mirrored the allure of a mermaid, the 39-year-old found herself at the epicenter of widespread pregnancy rumors.
For her look, Katy opted for a daring blend of a strapless corset and a figure-hugging red skirt accented with silver fabric and criss-cross detailing that left her underwear and a bit of her backside exposed. She paired her ensemble with pearl earrings and a pearl necklace, red lipstick, towering black heels, and fashioned her black locks into a sleek long ponytail and fringe.

The "Dark Horse" artist sparked a frenzy among onlookers who believe Katy could be pregnant with her second child with her fiancé Orlando Bloom. Social media platforms were flooded with comments and conjectures.
"She is definitely pregnant," one person declared confidently, while another pondered, "Is this [a] reveal announcement?" The curiosity didn't stop there, with others hinting, "Um, baby #2 coming soon…" and outright stating, "Katy looks pregnant," and "Is she pregnant [?] 🤰."

While many focused on the possibility of a new addition to Katy and Orlando's family, some voices expressed concern over her choice of attire, particularly in light of Katy's role as a mother. "I love you Katy but this is too much as [a] mom; have some respect," criticized someone. "I don’t care how hot my body is…I wouldn’t [wear] that dress, plus I’m a mom…I want some respect!" another echoed.

Despite the flurry of reactions to her outfit and the swirling pregnancy rumors, the couple has yet to confirm any news regarding expecting a second child.
As far as where the possibility of bringing a new life into the world stands, Katy Perry has previously discussed putting baby plans with Orlando Bloom on hold due to her Las Vegas residency. In a 2022 interview, she clarified, "I'm in Vegas, and I can't do that show with anything in my belly, especially a human."

Instead of focusing on how soon she may or may not have her next baby, the doting mom diverts her attention to her and Orlando's beloved daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom, who was already running, coloring, and letting her loved ones know that she loves them at age one.
In August 2020, as part of advancing the initiative to advocate for healthcare for expecting mothers and newborns globally, Katy and Orlando—both UNICEF Goodwill Ambassadors—teamed up with UNICEF to announce Daisy's birth.
UNICEF shared an endearing image of the couple holding their newborn's hand and accompanied the post with a message conveying the couple's happiness and their commitment to helping others. A part of the caption stated, "We are floating with love and wonder from the safe and healthy arrival of our daughter [...] But we know we’re the lucky ones and not everyone can have a birthing experience as peaceful as ours was."
Since Daisy's birth, Katy has openly shared the transformative experience of motherhood, often emphasizing the new perspective it has brought her. In an interview she did two years ago, Katy gushed over Daisy, saying she's a good combination of both her and Orlando.
She also marveled at the joy of rediscovery she has experienced through Daisy. "It's amazing to see everything new again through a toddler's eyes," Katy swooned.

Outside of her marveling over her daughter and her life as a mother, Katy has also spoken about her professional life. Interestingly, just last month, she hinted at an impending ordeal that is set to take place this year during an interview with Jimmy Kimmel.
While discussing her career at large and the fact that her time as a judge on "American Idol" will come to an end soon, Katy teased, "I have some things planned for this year […] It’s gonna be a very, very exciting year."
