Katy Perry recently tried to make a stylish appearance at the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball 2024 but drastically failed. Katy opted for a sheer outfit which was dubbed 'grossed' by her fans. She donned a burgundy gown and gave a glimpse into her toned midriff with a see-through outfit. Katy's Christmas outfit was from designer Alex Perry.

The gown featured a sequined corset top and a floor-length skirt. The singer's outfit's draped design and a daring thigh-high slit just made the gown worst. She complimented her outfit with high-contrasting black pointed-toe heels which was the bad match for her shimmery sequin outfit.

For her make-up, she opted for thick rounded eyebrows, thick lashes, smoky eyes, and burgundy lipstick. However, the viewers were not happy with Katy's look and slammed her for her outfit choice. A social media user tweeted, "No Katy Perry was gross not even good let awesome. Eww her outfit yukkkk.Gross." Another person added, "Katy Perry is a disgusting whore."

Another critic wrote, "Katy Perry looks sick." Another internet user commented, "Her outfit is not appealing." Another Reddit user wrote, "Why does she always pick the worst outfit?"



 



 



 

Katy Perry opts for a sparkling performance outfit

Katy Perry made the night memorable with her stirring performance and dazzling Christmas outfits. After her worst red carpet appearance, she sported a silver look from Retrofete's Spring 2025 collection. She looked stunning in a strapless metallic mini-dress as she performed her hit song 'Firework'. She completed her look with futuristic leather thigh-high boots from Le Silla.

The singer arrived on the stage in a gold leather jacket from Retrofete, which she later dropped. She accessorized her look with silver and gold jewelry. For her second performance, she donned another silver outfit with reindeer horns on her head and snowflakes at her waist.
