Singer-songwriter Katy Perry has opened up about her hopes for her five-year-old daughter Daisy, saying she wants her child to grow into a 'better version' of herself — and that living her most authentic life is the greatest template she can offer. The remarks came at the Tribeca Festival premiere of her concert film Katy Perry: The Lifetimes Tour, Live from Paris.

On Motherhood and Modelling Strength

Perry, 41, who shares Daisy with former fiancé Orlando Bloom, said she was proud to bring her daughter along for her recent Lifetimes Tour. She told People magazine: 'It's always incredible when I get to bring my daughter to work. I think when mothers can be their most supported, authentic selves, that is always a good template for children to model. And I'm just glad to model a strong, steady, intelligent, funny, weird woman for my beautiful daughter.'

At the Tribeca premiere, Perry expanded on the idea: 'I think, as mothers and fathers, we're just modelling something for our children, and all we can hope for is that they will grow up into better versions of ourselves, and themselves. I think if I'm out there living my most authentic, free, supported, empowered, smart, sexy life, and she's going to have a pattern to follow, a model to follow.'

Daisy Already 'A Force'

According to reports, Perry is already delighted by the confidence her daughter shows. 'She's a force. She tells me exactly what she thinks,' the singer said. The candid admission suggests Perry sees in Daisy the very qualities she hopes to nurture — directness, self-assurance, and individuality.

Perry Declares Justin Trudeau the 'Love of My Life'

At the same premiere, Perry also spoke openly about her relationship with former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, calling him the 'love of my life.' She said: 'I am very in love. Actually that show was after I met the love of my life, and so I felt very anchored by that. Because I'm a little bit like a rainbow kite. I fly super high and like, you know, touch the veil, cosmos, and sometimes I need to be anchored. So, to have that anchor finally makes me feel really whole now.'

Perry was previously married to British comedian Russell Brand before her relationship with Bloom.

A New Chapter of Groundedness

Perry described her current state of mind as one of evolution and gratitude. 'Every day is a fantastic journey, and every day is a chance to evolve, and to be a better person and do the right thing and to be a model for your community, for your family, for your world. I feel like a more grounded person in so many aspects of my life,' she said.

The remarks paint a picture of an artist who sees personal fulfilment and professional visibility as inseparable — and who is consciously shaping what her daughter sees on that stage.

Point of View

She's her audience. That conflation of personal authenticity with public modelling is very much the brand Perry has built — and it raises the question of where the artist ends and the role model begins.
