Katy Perry's next album will be filled with 'pure joy'

Katy Perry's next album will be filled with "pure joy and fun".

The 'I Kissed a Girl' singer - who has three-year-old daughter Daisy with fiance Orlando Bloom - has teased the follow-up to 2020's 'Smile' and is looking forward to her seventh studio LP being inspired by her feeling "really happy and whole", even if other artists would dismiss that as "boring".

She told 'Access Hollywood': “I just have yet to make a record from a place of feeling really happy and whole and full of love.

“Sometimes artists are like, ‘Oh, that’s boring, you want to make music from kind of like a tougher place,’ but actually it’s very bright and joyful, like pure joy and fun and playful and celebratory and a party.”

The 39-year-old star's comments echo what she previously teased about her new music, though she admitted it would take time for fans to hear because of her commitments to her daughter.

She told 'Good Morning America': "I haven't put any new material out since my darling Daisy.

"I think that I'm writing a lot and have written a lot from a place of love, because I'm feeling so much of it - so much unconditional love, that love you never knew existed.

"I'm always writing, I have been, but I think what's really important to me is to be celebrating the world that I've got to build with all of these wonderful songs and to be responsible for a life for a three year old.

"I will be back, but let me get this right."
