After releasing three teaser videos for "Roar," in which she burns her baby blue wig, buries her candy cane bra and has a kitty find its voice, Katy Perry has finally unleashed the single artwork for her new song 2013.
Perry announced that lucky UK fans would be the first to take a peek at the cover on her Twitter today (Aug. 8). "!! ATTENTION UK !! EXCLUSIVELY for u guys, be the 1st ones to see the #ROAR artwork NOW by pre-ordering single HERE," Perry wrote, along with a link to the UK iTunes store. Fortunately for American viewers across the pond, the image has hit the web (pictured above).
In something vaguely Lisa Frank-esque, a dark rainbow tinted tiger fur stripe border surrounds a muted background. Wearing a blue jacket with small orange stripes and a badass tiger on the back, Perry peers into the camera. Like the teasers for "Roar" and the promotional image for "Prism," Perry is rocking minimal, natural-looking makeup, with only black mascara, pink lips and a natural rosy blush making evident on her face.
Due to the death of baby blue, Perry's natural head of hair is featured on the "Roar" cover, flyaways and all.
Of course, the single name appears on the cover too, with two tiger heads roaring to make up the "O."
It is unknown whether or not this "Roar" artwork will be the same that will appear on American iTunes purchases.
As previewed very shortly in yesterday's (Aug. 7) "Roar" teaser, the first single off "Prism" will be a strong, foot-stomper of a track.
"Roar" marks the beginning of Katy Perry's new era as she shies away from her "Teenage Dream" album for the likely more intense and angry "Prism."
"Roar" will be released on Aug. 12. "Prism" will follow on Oct. 22.
